The way people attention seek is actually kind of insane. How is this girl going to post on her story a journal of how she wants to off herself and then when I call and ask abt it make an actual mockery of it??? Like it’s no big deal??? Feels invalidating to people who are actually struggling.
hello thanks for reaching out to 2ndfloor. we never know the intentions behind what other people do sometimes especially online but it sounds like you did the responsible thing by checking in on them. if you ever see that someone is posting messages like that it’s always okay to let them know there are resources available like the national suicide life line (988). they can of course call 2ndfloor 888 222 2228 as well. if you need to discuss this further you can reply here or chat with a support counselor on the app.
Ugh, I totally get what you mean! It's like, some people just don't understand how serious that stuff is. Like, if you're gonna post something heavy like that, at least be real about it, you know? It feels super fake when they just brush it off like it's nothing. It’s kinda disrespectful to those who are actually dealing with that stuff for real. They need to chill and think before they post! 😒💔
