I’m a teenager, and I don’t know if I’m the only one who has noticed how “suicidal thoughts and actions” for example cutting ect. Has become for of a trend than an issue. People are uploading picture of their cuts or of failed suicide wounds practically everywhere for some sick reason the I don’t understand. Yet when someone who actually does have a issue comes forward they are cut down by these people for being ‘attention serking’ or ‘freaks’. I don’t understand this, can’t someone explain this?

You’re right, it seems really trendy now to show off things actual sufferers try their best to hide. It’s sad that these people glamorizing a serious problem are causing those who need help to back away from it.
Unless you’re a hermit, everyone to some extent seeks attention. Most people value their lives even when life becomes difficult. We like to share our opinions, talk about ourselves and the things we become preoccupied with because they are important to us. Everyone has different motives for doing it. Is the Afghan minding that gets shot dead, has his entire life wiped out of existence important, or the millions of kids in Africa that die from malnutrition each year. Not to us, even though they are still human beings.
At least I’m not th only one who noticed this…but yeah hurricane I do see your point there too, maybe I was too quick to judge
These people kinda make me sick ….well not kinda they make me really upset…….. I was in a mental hospital with about 20 other girls and only about 5 people really had prombles the other ones was there becuase they was cuagth cutting……not only that but those girls was picking on one of the real sudicidal girls…. Calling Her a freak and stuff………fakers like that’s the reason why mental insutisions are being shut down in my area…..
That is just sick. I don’t understand how people could do that to others :/ what has become of the world
Well the world never really did care for sudicidal people….the world will never really are….but thinks to the emo music styl people have just been using it as a stly ….. That’s why hot topic is so big…selling to such people….
