On one hand, lmao good meme
On the other, I genuinely wish depressed/suicidal people would dedicate their life to a random cause instead of offing themselves
Man, half the reason is that the struggle is unbearable and never ends. "Go involve yourself more in the struggle" isn't really an answer to that.
It can be. Struggling is part of life, meaning makes struggle worth it. Meaning can change ones outlook from it never ends to I can move the needle, even just a little.
Ain't that simple.
Ever been deeply, clinically, chronically depressed to the point of suicidal thoughts and possibly have exhausted clinical treatments?
Are you a medical professional offering a legitimate treatment?
No?
Maybe you should sit down and not offer such reductionist advice regarding conditions you apparently do not understand.
Meaning? Ha! And that needle you can do freely move? Doesn’t even exist for us. 👍
Depends on the person and their struggle.
Some struggle from taking on too much.
and people say Lemmy lacks toxicity... seriously though, re-evaluate your opinions.
Wait, are you saying my statement is toxic or the responses I'm getting are? Cause I didn't think suggesting finding something meaningful outside yourself CAN BE helpful, would be so divisive. I certainly didn't think it would be an invitation for the rude responses.
