On Monday,
a 24 yr old boy committed suicide by jumping off the19th storey of a 5 star hotel after a live video steaming of his final moments on fb which he called ‘ suicide tutorial video’ .Its all over the internet. He planned everything.
It made everybody disturbed.
Well it was obviously not the only suicide case of this country, there are many. This highly polluted country has a large number of depressed population also.
Somebody is dying everyday.
But it got the popularity because he posted his video online.
News are being made,people are talking about it .Just a another suicide.
But the most sad and scary thing was the comments that the people made after watching his video.
Watching the video, they were calling him selfish, ungrateful, and a brat. And they then went on to abuse the victim, laugh at the tragedy.
while some are calling it a wake up call,some are still shamelessly mocking on the suicide of the boy,abusing even after his death.
Another young life lost, another day, another news, little bit of talk on mental disorders and then we’ll be back to our daily lives till the time another young life decides to end itself.
In this fucking country India, people still don’t realise that depression really exists and its not madness.
How this fucking Indian society treats depression is even more depressing. In the Indian society, if we are earning well and have a healthy personal life, we just can’t have depression.
If we are a fun loving person and are usually seen chilling so we can’t have depression.
But if you are a loner so there’s definitely a chance of you having it.
The shame and taboo around the issue is so much that visiting a therapist in India labels you as ‘mad’.Nobody is allowed to talk openly about depression.
My friends, my family don’t have any idea about my depression,because I never talk about it. They will call me mad. Mentally unstable.
To prove that Depression really exists, every time maybe we will have to do something like this.
I’m scared of this society and the selfish world more than depression and death.

Have we ever been “human?” Are we what we like to think of as “human”, i.e. kind, caring, sympathetic, empathetic, loving, selfless, peace seeking, turning the other cheek-ing, or are we just primates evolved to a level of spoken language, destroying our planet through our irrational actions while beating each other down for failing to conform to the standards of morality we think we are capable of achieving? We’re just a bunch of overgrown hairless apes. We might be “human” in, oh, another million years of evolution, but for now, we’re still flinging poo around our cages acting like idiots. If the universe is wise, it is planning our eradication, and formulating a replacement. Just my opinion
Thank you for this post. I share your anger. How dare this selfish, inconsiderate person bother us with his desire to escape his pain. I’m always amazed by the selflessness displayed by the non depressed who ask us, the depressed, to stop killing ourselves in our selfishness so they won’t be inconvenienced. How thoughtful and evolved of them. Yes, we are monsters.
I just read the news. What’s more upsetting is the people trolling on the guy’s suicide. So inhuman. He may be rich but that doesn’t make him any less of expressing his basic human emotions. Looks like he tried to reach out for help but he didn’t get any. It’s so ugly to see the inhuman monstrous d0uchebags makin a mockery of his suicide. Half the world doesn’t seem to take depression seriously.
Seems half the world has adopted depression for sadness. They have a bad day, was involved in a fender bender… “I’m depressed”
No, you’re feeling a little blue kuz of the recent happenings and pending effects. Stop saying your depressed kuz it has more syllables. You are not
*Just because it has more syllables or may cause others more sympathy for you. You are not
What an eye-opener!! How did I not know this? I feel like a dumbshit takin meds and therapy. You probably should preach this to the rest of the world.
