And it was the worst day.

I hate how you’re hiding behind another account

Tomorrow is my last day and then I’m off for a whole week.

I need something important to say.
It’s a triggering topic.
So I guess I’ll just say it.. Am I the only one who gets frustrated at people when they only post hotlines? Especially the suicide hotline?
Like I get the intentions, of course you’d want for someone to get the help, but lately I’ve been seeing people paste the suicide hotline likes it’s an automatic and robotic response. You feel nothing more. It feels more like you’re obligated to do that whenever someone posts triggering and concerning content. As if you want a good pat on the back because you did the right thing, or that you want to get awarded. And really, it feels like it helps you instead of the person who needs the help.
And I don’t want to come off as rude or whatever, but most people are aware the hotline exists. Anyone could easily google it. So when someone posts it as a response, it’s like a slap in the face. It’s like you’re telling someone to shut up and just call the number. We aren’t stupid.
I personally would prefer if someone NOT post the hotline to me when/if I ever relapse or get suicidal. It just hurts, knowing that anyone can just paste a number down and be gone.
Yesterday I sorta had that moment. During working hours too. I was on the brink of crying and I thought to myself that I was definitely not going to continue anymore. At the moment I didn’t care about anyone. I didn’t care how people would feel.
When I got off, I saw my sister (who moved out and lives in NY). Seeing her made me... okay? Because later that day we went out and shopped, and I had a good time. And I missed her. And I remembered the thoughts I had earlier that day, and how I’m glad I was here.
I don’t want to die. But sometimes I’m just tired of being broken and hurt. -
I just thought I’d say this because maybe some people don’t want to see that hotline, and rather something more.
-
I understand how that feels, because it just feels like a dry response. The people who do that have good intentions but I can totally get where you're coming from.
Also, how's it going? We haven't chatted for a long time ^^ -
Dry response describes it perfectly. But yeah, I know they want to help. I just wish no one needed the help. Wished everyone was mentally okay and healthy from the start.
I’m hanging in there. What about you? -
so gross
-
Glad he isn’t like that
-
I use to weigh 94 lbs last I checked.
I’m now 110 lbs and I am so happy. But I feel fat sometimes, even tho I’m not, -
I hope my mom likes what I bought her for Mother’s Day.

Especially the box storage.
-
I kinda want to go out.

Oh! Yesterday I saw him with her and he was holding hands and I wasn’t aware they were dating again
