Yea and thats only possible with time and effort and support from others
Just telling people to "be better" is not support
And im sorry to say but sometimes when a person is depressed they might not have a "interesting life story" whatever that means
Nobody can change your life for you. If things aren't going how you want, no matter what obstacles you're facing, there are only two choices. Do something (literally anything) different, or succumb and wait for the world to drop change in your lap.
An interesting life story can be damned near anything, but it's probably not going to be based on watching a lot of Netflix and hanging out online.
We live in an unparalleled golden age for learning hobbies for cheap thanks to YouTube and the productive forces of Chinese Socialism.
I refer back to my first point; nobody owes you attention. Does the sad sack you're describing sound like a fun or interesting date?
No one owes anyone anything but it doesnt hurt to have a little fking empathy
i think your basic point is correct but you don't have to be such a prick about it
Death to America
Wow way to make a person feel like shit about themselves. Fuck you too buddy
bullshit. i've seen people be rescued.
It happens but I don’t think it’s sustainable to “save” everyone. It’s why the mindset of “I can fix her” is a meme. It’s why people are even commenting here. Even if a communist society is somehow able to magically provide “saving” go every struggling person, but we don’t live there. We live in a hellscape, and we can’t individually rescue everyone.
It’s why we need to create the tools and guides for people to start by themselves and be there when they fall. We can’t walk for babies, but we can show them how it’s done and help them up when they fall.
fucking shut up, chud
support we don't have, time we can't afford, and effort we can't spare because just existing is so arduous.
