People really need to read the article the Suicide Prevention people made on how to demonstrate mental issues and depression in stories and TV. This is just tiring.

Also donāt lie about you having a mental illness, and ik for a fact you donāt, your just saying that cuz you got exposed, and your trying to turn the tables and come up with an excuse but itās a butt excuse.

Not going to say anything else, but anyone who had experience with suicidal thoughts or had a failed attempt knows that depression makes suicide seem like a choice. If you actually add it into your story, you ARE glamorizing it. I canāt believe this needs to be said to someone with depression.

This is super personal but I canāt keep bottling it up and you not coming sense. Wanna know why itās fuckkng triggering for me? Because my brother almost died from depression, and that caused my whole fucking family to b depressed I havenāt seen him for 3 years, and I donāt want people to do the same thing he did because he didnāt feel loved. I was his twin and whenever I look in the mirror I blame myself for him being in a hospital. (DONT YOU GUYS fucking pity or else Iām leaving this thread) The last time I saw him he wouldnāt speak a word and he hasnāt for 3 years. Hence why I made a thread where if you need someone to talk to and you donāt feel loved you can pm me cuz I donāt want what happened to Aaron to ever happen to anyone else. Hope this snapped you to reality

First of all Iām not even close to being 9 but if it makes you feel better then you can continue thinking like that.
Second of all do you want a picture of an official paper where it clearly states when I was diagnosed and with what? Though you probably wouldnāt understand the language 
but again if it makes you feel better then you can think that I donāt have a depression.
Now she wonāt even say anything because she knows we are right
