Today, I posted a status on Facebook saying I was depressed and needed someone to talk to. Someone commented on it saying "Just kill yourself". It got 20 likes. FML

Thank you guys for all the advice/comments. I think it was just a bunch of dumb idiots from my school just messing around, but nonetheless, I took it seriously. Again thanks.

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.

Delete all these people. Ask a good friend or a professional for help.

The Victim Advocate I work for got a call out on New Year's eve about a suicide that took place because some unfortunate girl was on the edge, and her friend got angry with her and said "just kill yourself," so she did. It is not directly someone's fault if this happens, but suicide and depression are not joking matters. I don't care if people have a stereotype of an attention-seeker on facebook. We all know people like that. But do you really want to find out that someone listened to your advice and did kill themselves? Not funny. And no one deserves to be told they should kill themselves. Even if they fishing for attention, there is probably something serious going on in their lives that would cause them to seek that attention in the first place. OP, I am sorry. Please don't listen to that asinine comment. Let it reveal to you who your real friends aren't, for starters, and try a different approach to reaching out to some people who will be kinder to you. :-)

the problem today is all the attention ****** and dramma queens on the net saying that theyre depressed just to get someones reaction. they make it into a big joke that no one can take seriously anymore so when the time does comes when someones actually depressed and having suicidal thoughts we intinctively think its just another joker or attention seeker and say things like "go fk yourself attentionwhore" or "just kill yourself"

But there is a difference between thinking that it's a joke/attention seeking and actually saying something along those lines, or worse.

Even if it was a person just being an attention seeker, there's no need to tell them to "kill themselves" because you really don't know what's going on in their lives. Hopefully, lessons have been learned and people will stop spitting out "kill yourself" after everything that bores/annoys them.

It's pretty much like the boy who cried wolf. No one takes it seriously anymore, ESPECIALLY if it's broadcast to everyone on facebook and really, if it's on facebook, why should they?

WOW. clearly you're the one who has some issues. it's arrogant, inconsiderate people like yourself that need to learn a lesson.all those lectures about bullying and intimidation, they're directed to comments like the one you ignorantly posted. show some respect. p.s. karma's a bitch

that sucks, but other people find it really annoying when a person whines on fb. next time you should just call a close friend

YDI for being an attention *****, but FYL because you didn't deserve to have that said to you. People can be dicks. Talk to some close friends or get professional help. :)

With all due respect, Facebook probably does a lot in your life but it isn't therapy.

dont go blabbing stuff like that all over facebook. your being depressed is posted on the same news feed as someone whos eating a sandwich and has just taken a very relieving shit which is stuff that people think dont really matter so of course people will write ridiculous comments on it. either you write stuff like that often and people are sick of it or people just think youre being an annoying attention seeker which you most likely are

Top tip: Don't tell your problems to anyone, 80% of people don't care and the remaining 20% are glad you have them.

No just people that feel better about their life when hearing the problems of others.
