Just hours ago, I was listening in a conversation with a few of my "friends" who were essentially invalidating a mutual's suicidal ideation. They laughed about their mental turmoil and basically ignore any expressions of suicidal tendencies now.
I was reluctant to let on about my own depression, but there is now no rational doubt that I made the right decision to keep it inside.
I've been subject to ridicule and humiliation both on other online forums and from family for my own struggles and eventually learned that no one wants to deal with "a loved one"s issues until they're no longer around. That's what I want; them to realize how much pain I have been inflicted and maybe use it as a tool to aid others who haven't reached this point.
However, it is unrealistic to expect anything more from society than "thoughts and prayers" for a week and then obscurity the next. Humans are, fundamentally, an absolutely evil type of selfish that pays no heed to other beings until the problems said beings directly affect them.
