So i was watching a video which turned out to be sponsored by Mcdonalds and suddenly noticed the title of this video in the sidebar. I felt really sad after I watched it, kind of realizing how many opportunities for growth she'd let pass her due to her inability to seek proper help and accept her faults. This was 5 years ago! I'm sure she had her own struggles at the time, but it's such a contrast to how much she's become a shut in with no social interaction now. So many opportunities lost, both for personal and social growth.
Also, i send my love to all of you struggling with your mental health
Coming from a country with suicide embedded in our history and culture (humam from Japan here), i can't express how much I empathize and sympathize with you all. In all honestly, I do find it disturbing how casually she brings it up in posts. I get that the stigma needs to be lifted and people need to talk about it more in order for a better understanding and to find solutions to the issue, but it's still highly sensitive and should be discussed with the right intentions and motives. Speaking about it to cause guilt and/or garner sympathy/attention is one of the worst things in the world. I am not discounting her experience, and i'm sure she's struggling with her mental health, but I hope she isn't using it as a shield to shy away from problems and issues her bad attitude has caused. It minimizes the severity of the issue. I really do hope she finds the help she needs soon, but in order for that to happen, a certain level of self awareness needs to be present. Given her track record, and i'm saddened to say it, but we'll be waiting a long time for that. Still, I can't help but hope and wish the best for her in that aspect.
Very sorry for the long and winded statement, it's an issue very near and dear to my heart and life.
