A so called ‘friend’ of mine found my blog. My blog where I have no one I know in real life on, and he called me out on it all. He called me out on things that werent what he thought, and told me to ‘stop posting about mental illnesses bc i dont have one’. Can we talk about how inconsiderate that is? Its worse now than when I last fell out with my friends and I dont know what to do anymore. I dont want to head downhill any further. I want help. Ive never said it before but I honestly want help bc I dont want to feel like this anymore. I want to be a better friend, a better person, a happier person.

Young, I know how that feels. I’m sorry about your friend; he sounds just like someone I used to know, 2-3 years ago. Have you considered professional help? Personally, I think just talking about it anonymously with someone goes a long way. You can always let us know what’s going on.
It’s not your fault you’re depressed. It’s the lack of support, encouragement, and connections to those around you. And it probably isn’t your fault if you’re the one that wants to make things better.
People can be – no offense to your friend – ignorant and close-minded and just can’t seem to be able to grasp onto the fact that you can be ill. My own mother can’t accept the fact that I am depressed and won’t get me the help that I asked for when I was younger and I’ve just given up hoping to get better until I’m an adult. However, if you’re an adult, go get help if you want it. It’s your life and if someone tells you different, fuck them. They don’t have the right to tell you how to handle your mental stability.
Im only 15 so I cant legally get help without my legal guardians consent or without them knowing, and I dont know if thats what I want. I just wish I knew someone who understood. Thankyou though. As for yourself, if you ever need someone to talk to my anon instagram is @daddys.failure, my DMs are always open for anyone. I think knowing that I might be able to help others gives me some comfort
Allow me to be the first to slap that ignorant asshat in the face.
This shit makes me a lunatic.
Now, why the hell would a “friend” do something like that, instead of trying to understand the situation and being there and helping you out?
That guy sure as hell isn’t a friend, he took the letter r out of friend and became a fiend….
Anyways, we aren’t going anywhere, so feel free to post. I hope to keep checking on you.
At the moment you guys are all I have to talk to about my feelings and problems. Thank you so much though. I never really considered him a friend at first but my two best friends, my only friends, became friends with him (if that makes sense) and in order for me to keep my two friends I had to befriend him. I got to know him and he seemed nice but now we’ve took a bad turn, I’ve ruined things with both of my other friends and I’m not sure of what to do anymore.
This is going to sound pretty harsh on my part but… you do need to get better friends. mindlessgamer619 says above that that guy is not your friend… i digress, i think there’s people stupid (or just lazy) enough that just acts like that because they don’t understand what someone else is going through. Yup, he’s being pretty inconsiderate, but maybe it’s because he just doesn’t understand (been there like crazy this past week).
That said, if you haven’t looked for therapy, i’d advice that you do so, because you’re in the perfect mindset for it: you want to get better, and want help. Whatever you end up doing, feel free to keep posting in here and sharing stuff with us, because like mindlessgamer619 says, my guess is that we’re not going anywhere… lol.
I do get that he mightn’t understand but instead of trying to, he tore pieces out of me and pulled me out on all the small things I’ve done wrong, now I’ve lost my two best friends through falling out with him. I took my anger out on them and now i have no one, I don’t know what to do anymore.
