I feel like I've said this before on here but maybe you need to find a different corner of fandom and take a break from your current fandom friends.

This is coming from a suicidal person who really tries not to mix that shit in with fandom, it doesn't belong there. Yes my friends know but the only place I talk about this stuff is behind locked journals that only a few people have access to.

I also have depressed friends, and one of the biggest things I've learned in life is that it's okay to take a break from people for your own mental health. I used to struggle with that because I knew how it felt to be low and I wanted to be that person who could always be there for someone, but since I'm so fragile myself I learned that I'm of no good to anyone if I am just brought down with someone.

I know what you mean when you say 'it doesn't belong there' because fandom is, in theory, supposed to be fun and not srs business but I totally get why people share it there, when fandom has such a high proportion of people suffering from those sorts of issues and people are *generally* a lot more understanding than IRL.

Of course, needing to take a break from that is perfectly natural too. Sometimes I think people can bring people down without meaning to, but that goes for everyone, depressed or not, and getting out of a situation that's bringing you down is healthy in any situation.

Same anon. I think if you are in a locked community with a circle of friends you know, it's okay to bring it into fandom.

But I've been seeing some of this stuff come up on tumblr in a very public way and that scares me a bit. I'm not saying depressed people need to hide all their problems, I just don't think it's wise to bring it up in extremely public forums if you are already depressed because you don't know who could be looking at it and what they would say back to you.

When I was really low I brought it up here once anon in the general thread, and I got "just kill yourself already" comments. I was expecting troll comments so it didn't phase me, but if I had done that publicly, with my name attached? I don't know that I would have survived.

That's why I think it largely does not belong in fandom, I get that sometimes you cannot get that support IRL but you need to be careful where you share it online too.

Same anon.

Honestly, that sort of thing didn't even occur to me. How awful. I'm really sorry you got that sort of comment, that is just completely out of order, but I'm glad it didn't bother you in those circumstances. I do understand why people feel the need to share, but you're right that people need to be careful.

And, yeah, I don't really think people should attach their real names to fandom anyway, it doesn't seem like a good idea. Not publicly anyway.

This is true. It's ok to take a break and it's ok to take care of yourself.
