You know what's the worst thing to say to a depressed person? Say you'll try and help them by giving them someone to talk to. Sure, it might feel novel and new at first, and it might make you feel like a better person. But it doesn't help him and it never will. Talking has never fixed anything. You have no idea what kind of hell people walk around with. You just want to pat yourself on the back for helping someone.

  • This is extremely ignorant on your part. Therapists exist for a reason. Emotion Anonymous groups and the like exist for a reason. There is a national suicide hotline for a reason. Talking saves lives. Perhaps you should try it and stop looking at it like we're patting our selves on the back.

  • Who the hell do you think you are? Do you not think i have problems of my own? I've been depressed since middle school. I've been through shit too, and i still have to put up with it. Don't think i don't know how it feels. I've had that gun to my head a couple of times myself. Talking does help. It may not help you, but i know it helps me and many others. And yeah, helping people makes me feel good. Is that such a bad thing? I don't think so
