Hey guys,

Most of you don't know me, because I'd rather stay anonymous, but I just needed to express what happened to me the past few days. Considering I know lots of people from MCSG than anywhere else, I decided to post here.

Recently, a friend of mine suffered through huge depression. She was having a terrible summer, not to mention starting her summer off with 2 friendship breaks. She just kept on having terrible events happen to her constantly, such as having severe friendship problems, family problems, etc. It doesn't seem like much, but trust me, to her, she felt like there was nothing to live for. And she wasn't kidding.

One day, she just couldn't take all the events happening to her, and eventually ended up picking up a kitchen knife. God knows where she would be if her parents didn't find out soon. She insisted on cutting herself to release all the pain mentally to pain physically. She cried for hours and hours each day because she just couldn't find happiness.

After some time, I couldn't stand seeing her go through all this depression, so I talked to her non-stop, telling her to express all her feelings. I'm not a big fan of listening to people talking about how they feel, but I didn't want her to go back to her usually feelings. I listened to her, tried to help her calm down, and eventually, she started to loosen up. Now she's a happy person again :)

What I'm trying to say is, if you're ever feeling like you're a worthless piece of poop, put your hand on the left side of your chest. Feel the heartbeat? Well you're alive for a reason. Don't give up in life. You'll eventually escape hell. But only if you don't give up. And if you know a person who's suffering depression, help them out; talk to them, try to calm them down. And try to add a little bit of comedy into their life :)

I know people are going to look at me like a 'gay' dude, but I honestly don't care, as long as this message gets out and people understand this. This event in my life/her life really effected me, and I want everybody to know, because there's a lot of you who are innocent, and deserve to know this. Life is hard, but if it wasn't, how boring would that be? ;)

Stay strong guys.

That's an amazing and strong message. I'm dealing with a major fear, that no matter how hard I try, I can never get over, I'm thinking of making a thread about it, because my fear is death, and It never stops to scare me.

;-; I know the thread isnt aimed at being gay but can I ask why people call you gay? Cause it really annoys me when people accuse people of being gay COUGH COUGH and also use it as an insult :/

Great thread :) . Self harm is never the way out. Always share your thoughts with people you trust. Eventually, time will heal the wounds.

Don't be insulted when someone calls you gay. They're just jelly of how smart we are compared to them ;)

People would call this gay because it's all innocent. Guys are "usually" supposed to be all bad and all that.

i don't like how you included that "gay" part. no one here is going to think of you that way or call you that just because you care about your friends. there's no reason to mention that, even if you're against it.

anyway i'm glad you got your friend feeling better, but its important to keep an eye/stay in touch with your friend, because typically people who have these sorts of problems do have them later in life too. if she did this once already, chances are she'll get depressed again and possibly resort to cutting or anything else too.

I am very happy that your friend feels better now, but why do you get the idea that guys are supposed to be bad? That's just stupid to me.

And why would we care if you were gay? What part of this story implies that you are gay?
