"It's Okay to Cry" - No it's Not!

if only it was that easy to snap out of it

you should become minister for mental health in the new tory government im sure you would bring health and happiness to everyone

anyways that 34m statistic is obviously wrong but it would also be wrong to say that mental health isn't an urgent issue that affects a lot of ppl

thx for the tissue to wipe away my liberal tears :Cry:

It's not a view/opinion if it's provably wrong. Thought you'd have learned that by now, have said it so many times on here

It isn't easy to snap out of it nor do you ever fully snap out of it. But that's what you have to do.

Something isn't 'provably wrong' just by you declaring it so. Thought you'd of learned that by now.

It's provably wrong when there are people in this very thread proving it to be wrong with their own experience. Clinical depression is not just being in a bad mood, and it's not necessarily (or even usually) related to a particular situation which you can "get over", and even more ridiculous than saying so is that you've outright said it's not ok to show emotion, despite it being medically known to literally everyone in the world except for you that bottling up your feelings is bad for you.

There are things you can do to help yourself when you have depression, but you can't just say "nah not happening all is well" and be magically cured

aw so much i wanted to say but flyingjesus has said most of it lol

I don't understand how people are angry at people who have committed suicide, or how they can say it's selfish or whatever. Often it perhaps it the best option, which the person has obviously weighted the positives and negatives up to reach that conclusion.
