[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Again, I intentionally left out the group - but it seems like you all think Republicans and anti-vaxxers should kill themselves, which is interesting. Depressing (and I'm not either), but interesting. I'm in therapy for severe depression, and I was mostly curious if this is how society is these days, you know? I'm conflicted between protecting my own life (yes, tell a very depressed person to kill themselves and you never know what will happen) and being so lonely I'll be friends with anyone.[/quote]

Unless she actually said depressed people should kill themselves, you need to stop conflating her statement and your mental health issues because it’s very manipulative.[/quote]

Wait, what? She said X people should kill themselves, and I'm being manipulative by being upset about hearing it? I think its obvious I'm taking it harder than a healthy person would.

I’m not saying what she said isn’t problematic, nor am I saying it’s unreasonable that you’re taking it harder than an emotionally healthy person would.  But that you were part of her audience when she presumably doesn’t know about your mental health issues doesn’t make her comment more egregious than it otherwise would be.[/quote]

I didn't say it was. I posted that explain where I'm coming from.[/quote]
