Re: Advice for talking to people who are suicidal/depressed/self-harming

[(Anonymous)]

I have a few of those people myself, most I know personally. Thing is: I never know whether they really want to talk to somebody about it or if they're just using the platform of choice to vent. I also never know what to say, because I don't know how to make things better.

I have this friend who keeps posting stuff about how depressed they are and how shitty they feel and write something like "Oh now, I'm all alone and nobody likes me" but then go on and post about "people who only talk to me out of pity after a post like that. They don't really care, they don't mean it, they only feel guilty". Yeah, great, so what now? Do want me to talk to you so you're less lonely or do you think I'm only pitying you?


Personally, I always feel guilty about talking about my depression to others because I feel like I'm burdening them with my problems. That's something I don't want to do, so I almost never talk about it. I'd say if they write about those things un-anonymously on a platform where you can answer they might want to talk. SO I'd just try something neutral, like assuring them you're there for them if they need someone to talk etc. That way, it's up to them if they want to instigate a conversation.
