  • I just remembered a quote from one of the posters: "Choose happy." That is one of most stupid things someone could tell a person with depression.

    • That one is the absolute worst. I've only seen it a few times but it angers me to no end

    • Amen to that!

      Depression is not a choice. I wish I had a dollar for all the stupid people who don't know shit about depression, suicide, and or mental health in general. There are so many ignorant ass armchair therapists who don't know their ass from a hole in the ground, hold no academic degrees, and have never stepped foot in a college level psychology class, but insist that they know better than the professionals, and the patients who suffer with deep depression. There are too many idiots out there who continue to perpetuate negative stereotypes about people who live with depression, and are contemplating suicide.

      Like I said I wish I had a dollar for every moron, I'd be a very rich woman!
