Like, knowing I might be called a dick for this and all.
But, just let them fucking kill themselves.
They whine too much about problems everyone else had.
I’ve been through hell and back, and I’m not ready to kill myself.
I realized it was stupid, and I was too young to do shit like that.
Why can’t other kids wise up like that?
Why? Because they’re dumb as fuck. That’s why.
I’m sorry, but if you’re thinking of suicide and cutting when you’re around my age, you’re dumb as fuck.
12-17 year olds are dumb as fuck. That’s why they do it. They have an excuse.
Ok, I’m not gonna let this slide by.
I have chronic depression. So do several of my friends, most of whom are about your or my age, somewhere in between the two. Thing is, with chronic depression, the self-hate does NOT go away. Ever. It lessens sometimes, but there is always, always the risk that something could trigger a depressive spiral and make it physically impossible for me to function, let alone mentally or emotionally.
And yes, I do think about suicide a lot.
I’ve been doing better lately, but it’s still there.
Always.
I’m 25, moderately successful, and have almost no reason to feel this way beyond brain chemistry.
It happens to all kinds of people, no matter the age. It runs in my family. My mother is 60 and still struggles with this. My father has been a suicide risk for as long as I can possibly remember.
We’re not being stupid.
And I’m damn glad people have talked me down in the past, and hopefully will continue to do so.
On that note, I’m outie for the evening.
i like how the douchebag says that they (no clue about gender, don’t care enough to check) “know they might be called a dick”
guess what if you know you might be called a dick for something maybe it’s time to shut up and re-examine your fucking attitudes you judgmental empathy-lacking shitface
