A Message to Anyone Who Might Be Sad or Down in Any Way.

If any of you are experiencing depression or suicidal thoughts, it will do you no good to keep them inside where they fester. Trust me, countless people here know that to be true. If you happen to be having depression or suicidal thoughts, please do not hesitate to share with someone you trust, even remotely. I know it can be hard to share, but it is never a good idea to keep your depression inside like that, because it is a silent killer. It will destroy you from the inside out if you don't do anything about it or recognize that it is manifesting itself in you. Maybe some of you are already being destroyed by it, in which case you need to acknowledge and act upon the fact that you can repair and heal the destruction that depression causes you, but it won't go away by itself. Beat down your pride, beat down your fear, beat down whatever obstacle is blocking your path from telling someone about your internal torment, because it's not going to go away unless you do this. Please don't ignore this, and please don't just walk away from what I'm telling you. 

I know and have 100% full confidence there is a source of joy and hope for all people in the world, no matter what they've done or said, or where they come from or who they are; I know because I have it, and I have met this source on a personal level. It's not a religion or a belief system, just simple Truth. If you would like to talk to me about this, please feel free to DM me whenever you like. I am completely open to having a conversation about this source of hope and joy :]

Wdym?

What do you mean?

it means nothing lol

I don't believe that's true. If it were nothing, then they wouldn't have posted that.

just because someone is posting something on a forum doesn't mean it's supposed to mean anything :/

Though there was a reason for posting it?

how do you know this

an example of a message without meaning

They may be referring to your potential insincerity and lack of empathy in clubs.

ya can't just assume that

for example, I am definitely depressed,

I’m sad to hear you are suffering from depression. I hope you’re able to get the help and support you need. Just remembe: you matter, you’re valuable and you’re awesome!

does vapid encouragement really help the majority of people? does telling random people you matter actually convince them?
i seriously wonder and not trolling. It always seemed to me a well intentioned but vacuous gesture. sometimes even done to virtue signal (although i dont think thats the case here).

I believe positive affirmations help people. It”s no guarantee… your mileage may vary. Sometimes people need to hear that they matter (because they do) and not be dismissed. Sometimes this is exactly what they are doubting in themselves.

you should try complimenting others and asking about them and see how they respond.
