I wish people would stop using depression as a means to get attention, if you really want help then get it or at least try to. You make people with depression look insincere, which should never be the intent of someone who suffers from this awful illness.
This has more to do with your personalities than your mental health honestly, you probably (definitely) are insincere people and that insincerity mixed with your health issues makes for a problematic person who needs to be helped and ignored. Helped with coping and ignored for being a liar, your ****ty personality makes it hard for people to help you and at times I seriously question if you are worth it or if you REALLY are depressed. Bich, I'm depressed and I know how to hid it, most-if not all depressed people hid their depression and create a fa?ade because they don't want to confront their problems (this is the case with most of us when we start having problems, not when we are in the process of getting help which we are mostly private about when it comes to details about but we are open about it once we feel like we are at a stage which we are comfortable and open enough to discuss and help others from our own experience), we don't go in public declaring it or online unless we are discussing are issues with OTHER depressed people who relate. Depression is sometimes at the surface and deeply within us, it never goes away and it rears it's head at the worst times.
Comments like: "I want 2 die lol", "Haven't killed myself yet lmao" "can someone kill me?" are pretty popular online and these are the types of people I'm addressing. If you really wanted to die you would do it instead of making these comments nearly everyday, making these comments adds to your depression and you really don't mean it so why would you say it? It's insincerity and it's why you are ignored and by extension people with severe depression. You are being insincere and you are subconsciously/intentionally saying this for attention because that's the type of person you are, an attention seeker and a liar. It's why you aren't getting help and it's why you don't want help, because you love it and that is just sick.
Depression is seriously ignored in society, and I believe it has a lot to do with people who either lie/ want attention from it or do not understand the difference between being depressed and having depression.
This post isn't particularly thought through but it's just on my mind and from my heart because I hate these people with all my heart.
EDIT: Don't mean for this post to come across as me being a spokesperson for people with depression, i know how a large portion of us act and what we do/say/think because i have experienced it most of my life and continue to do so to this very day. Nobody is the same but many of us are similar and this evidently true when i talk to people about the issue.
