I know EXACTLY what you mean. I don't exactly have the most exciting life or anything and use fandom as a bit of escapism for that, but sometimes I feel like the only person who doesn't have anything serious going on. I'm just bored a lot and fandom is fun. There are people who have *so much* staked in fandoms and even say it saved their lives and stuff, and I just can't imagine fandom ever having that effect on me. Not judging people who do, obviously, because I spend TONS of time in fandom and it does mean a lot to me, I just think I experience fandom differently from a lot of people. I take it seriously, but it hasn't changed my life or made me feel better about myself or anything. Feel like I'm doing it wrong sometimes, but it really is just an extremely fun (and time-consuming!) hobby.

Eh, you're not doing it wrong. You choose your own level of involvement.

When I was 14-ish, I took fandom that seriously, but since finishing high school it's just become a hobby. I don't get emotionally attached to people in fandom and the drama just reminds me of school. I wonder how old a lot of suicidal people in fandom are.

[(Anonymous)]

Anywhere ranging from teens to older adults. Suicidal tendencies are not just a teenage problem and it doesn't have anything to do with how seriously you do or do not take fandom.

[shahrizai]

But I think the demographics of fandom contain more of the teens/young adults that talk about it as a cry for attention.

Not belittling suicidal people at all - I have my own mental illnesses - I just feel there's more cases of the aforementioned type.

[nyxelestia]

I think a lot of it depends on the fandom. Some of them are full of teens, and thus will have a lot of kids who talk about suicide as a cry for attention largely as a product of their age, while others will have a more diverse demographic in which suicidal tendencies will be more rare, but also more likely to be serious considerations rather than attention grabs.
