White guys saying the N word and being gangsta. There is nothing ever cool about a white guy pretending to be ghetto. Yes I’ll include Eminem and I don’t care if he’s been given the pass.

    People talking about their suicidal feelings on the internet. Not sure why you’d want the whole world to know you’re feeling vulnerable, or what you think it can do to help. And people are so casual about saying it.

      I think I know what you’re talking about. I do believe there’s a time and place for anything, but just trauma dumping your life’s woes somewhere like on a YouTube comment section, is probably not one of those places.

      If you feel like there’s nobody to talk to about it - write a blog or a journal entry. Dump your feelings and experiences there, then share them whenever someone asks you what’s wrong. There are places and sites that are open for one to talk about these sensitive subjects to.

      But there’s just no reason to randomly do it on like YouTube comment sections for example. I see it nearly all of the time.

      Counterpoint: if people feel like they can’t talk about these things then they’ll never talk about them and the condition often worsens.

      I also feel pretty powerless to help in a meaningful way. But I’m not going to shun someone who’s struggling either

        Adding on to your feeling like they can’t talk being bad, sometimes places like these are the only places someone feels like they have. They’re fairly anonymous, it can be easily deleted, there’s low risk of someone in your personal life finding out.

        It’s a chance to scream into the void, while still feeling seen.
