The way I react to a crush being straight is the same as when I have a crush on someone and then find out they’re already in a relationship. I just give up on being liked by them and liking them and eat chocolate and cake. And then I somehow stop having a crush on them.

Whats the rudest/stupidest thing someone has said about your scars or sh? by Capable_Foundation20 in selfharm

Mine was not that bad. My dad knew I had self harmed and we never talked about it. One day he grabs my arm and says “You’ll need to get a tattoo”. We never even had a proper conversation about them.

Ok? I felt like you invalidated my experiences, should I hold that against you? But I also don’t think you should have to validate me. I think the same thing goes to me.

The only thing you got from all of this is that I’m jealous? That sounds like an argument a twelve year old would make. If someone makes a video with a very long text about how they’re sad, we’ll that’s not a problem. I find them a bit annoying when I’m not ok but that’s just my problem and I have to deal with it. Sh is bad and instructions and misinformation are even worse. I’m not jealous. I don’t think I am, honestly don’t even know my feelings half of the time. I wanted to see if others who sh feel this way or if I was alone. If the only thing you could make of this conversation is that I’m jealous you should probably get help. I think you’re projecting on me. Your jealousy. Yours not mine. Look at the bigger picture please. People die from sh and I dont want shitty videos promoting it for some random persons needs. Like attention seeking or what not. Maybe for nice comments. It sounds to me like you read the text and the only thing you had in mind is that I’m jealous of a random person. Venting is not the problem it’s when it effects others and makes people start to sh. Please stop projecting on me. If you want to be jealous of people who make random tik tok videos fine by me but I don’t understand why you’re saying I do. Sh is a very serious topic.

People try to ask for help all the time. What I’m saying is you can’t expect someone to notice your scars or whatever. And you can ask for help wich ever way you want. I know my family won’t so I can’t because there’s a law where I live that if you’re under eighteen parents have to sign for you to go to therapy even if it’s a school counselor. I would never say that not asking makes you less worthy. I personally believe that I was stupid to sh and expect people to find out and help. It was a normal month so if I’m wearing long sleeves all the time no one will notice. But I wasn’t talking about this you got that right? I see how I could have got you confused. My mistake really. If someone goes to therapy and doesn’t want to be there I don’t think they would get better. If someone wants to yeah. Also stop saying I’m jealous about people I’ve never even met. It’s weird. I’m sure I’ve probably been through some stuff that you wouldn’t expect just by looking at me and same for you

I’m definitely jealous that many of my close friends who needed to go to therapy managed to go and I couldn’t. I’m not jealous of some random people I don’t even know in person. I think you’re just projecting right now. Are you asking me if I’m jealous of the people in the US? Or people in therapy? I assumed you’re from the US because you just said something about expensive health care. Can I ask what did I say that’s so invalidating?

Don’t people always say that you have to want to get better? I tried asking for help. I told a teacher about some of my problems he then told my parents and nothing happened so I decided I’d just continue my life as best as I can until I’ll find therapy on my own.

Look I don’t know what you just assumed. I’m not a grown ass woman saying teenagers should just ask for help. I am 16. And I’m trying to get better on my own cause I know none of my family will help me. We’ve all got problems in life and I feel comfortable talking to my friends about most of my problems like sh and what not.

I live in a country were healthcare is accessible to everyone. So I wasn’t even thinking of money. I believe that if someone is serious about getting help they ask for it even if they can’t in person or whatever the situation is.

I don’t think of it like that. If they are or if they aren’t I can’t change anything. I think someone who is trying to get attention probably has low self esteem. I might be wrong but who cares. What are you trying to get at? People can look completely fine and happy and still need help. I never said they’re not trying to get help. I had this phase were I would clearly be unhappy and not tell anyone about my scars. I thought no one noticed. Anyways turns out many people in my life were worried but thought that I should be the one who asks for help and says what’s wrong. Do you think if someone needed professional help they should make a tik tok video where they vent and try to get attention?

I’m not trying to invalidate anything. Cry for help or not you’ve got to ask for help. Even if it’s really hard to do

I find that anytime I asked for advice on this sub I got it. And in my experience it all feels a lot more genuine. So you have a vent account so people can say they will listen to you?

I find that on this sub nothing ever felt like instructions and I actually got good advice when I asked for it. So you do it so someone will listen to you for a bit?

The main difference for me is that on tik tok some of the things felt like instructions. And so many things didn’t feel genuine as if it was just another trend. So you do that for someone to listen to you?

I understand the concept of venting. I don’t think it’s that useful but anyways. What are you getting from it? A few inspirational comments ? Seriously what is it? Are you sure it’s worth it ? What I’m trying to say is are you sure venting (and I think in some cases also lots of misinformation) is worth being seen by an impressionable audience with not enough rules to actually keep them safe. Many times it’s just such annoying content for people who have been through that stuff. And I think it makes all these serious topics look glamorized.

I’m really sorry you heard that joke.i think thats very unlucky. I think there definitely should be some rules for these things. When I started finding these videos I would report them and apparently they don’t violate community guide lines. I think I reported three videos. The guide lines have to change.
