Being a realist and a dreamer at the same time. Causing a constant state of tug of war in your mind. You understand what is and isn't realistic, yet you can't seem to throw away your dreams. Distress occurs.

Get the emomug. A social trend of the early to mid 2000s. Characterized by angsty teenagers, mainly from middle class suburban families, dressing in tight pants (often girl jeans), studded belts, black band t-shirts, and heavy use of eye liner with dark straightened hair with crispy bangs meant to cover one eye.
Music tastes tend to be a form of rock characterized by whiny depressed lyrics about some deep seeded emotional issue.
The Emo trend gave rise to toxic social media where dealing with insecurity meant creating an embellished internet personality to appeal to the masses rather than actually learning to love and accept yourself for who you really are.
The Emo era ended sometime in the late 2000s when Myspace began giving way to Facebook. The fashion and music tastes died out but the general attitude of "depression is cool" remained to this day.

Get the Emomug. I know there are a lot of definitions for emo but most of them suck and make fun of emos. An emo is someone who hates themselves and puts themselves down, they feel more emotion than anyone writing these sucky definitions. They can't control their pain so that makes them feel as though they have to hurt themselves even more. It's like feeling like shit and wanting to get drunk, instead of getting drunk they chose to cut or burn themselves. They think that everyone hates them and they don't deserve to live and a lot of emos will end up killing themselves. Take this from someone who's gone through this before, it's not just a genre of music or something to be made fun of, it's a real thing mostly associated with depression. And It's not that they don't feel emotion, they feel too much emotion and it overwhelms them.
