All of you who think this is stupid and worth laughing over truly don't get it. They are suffering depression, and those who think this is stupid can just get the hell out of this topic.
I've suffered depression before. My sister has as well. I know it's no laughing matter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But in all honestly, people who moap around feeling sorry for themself and don't make any attempt to help themself aren't going to get any help from me. You can have every man and his dog in support, but if the person can't be arsed helping themself, it all goes to waste.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Had to correct part of that.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyway your right. We can't help, nobody can. Only they can help tehmselves.

Alright. Can I make something clear? I think cutting is stupid. It's probably one of the worst things out there. It's a lot like drugs and alcohol. It doesn't solve anything, and I still wonder why people do it. One thing I know, though, is the people who do it shouldn't be thought less of. They're not mentally incompetent, they just have a problem. It's like if you were an alcoholic or a drug addict. You shouldn't make fun of them. You should help them.

YOU don't get it. EVERYONE has problems. The kid who made fun of your friend has problems, too. Everybody tries to get rid of their problem in bad ways. Your friends cut their wrists, and that kid makes fun of people to get attention. Just get over it.

EVERYONE DOES HAVE PROBLEMS. But the way to help them isn't by discriminating and insulting them. It's like drugs and alcohol. Both sides are trying to stop. If your friend was addicted to drugs and/or alcohol, wouldn't you want to help him instead of insulting him?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Insulting people because of their problems is not the answer.

Well, I have to say something about this, too.

 

 

 

I, as from Czech republic, have never seen anyone who cut their wrists, and never heard of it before. From what I have read here, it is some act, in which you act like you ''nearly'' commited a suicide.

 

 

 

It is stupid, yes. It attracts attention, yes.

 

 

 

But there is one thing : People that do this, or most of them, are desperate.

 

 

 

They count with the attention because they expect that someone will come to them, and says: You have problems THAT HARD so you cutted your wrists? let me help you.

 

 

 

And they will be so much happy, because they will have a new friend/gf/sense of satisfaction/sole happiness.

 

 

 

If I got this problem all right, trust me, I should know.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(OT: When I saw the name of the topic, i thought i will be something like that young people (or the generation) can not love someone that much as in the past.

 

 

 

And yes, it is true, because what people care about is mostly the view

 

 

 

and it is getting worse, because of those 12year old''gangstaz'' which know romance only as a type of a book and ''good friendship'' as a not-needed part of life)

@rushrock: No need to get frustrated with some people's opinions about what you've said. None of them (at least that I've read) have said that the bully was right in the situation. Just ignore him and continue on with your life. He's got nothing to look forward to with his attitude.

He has no right to say that, though. I can't just ignore what he said to my friends...

It's not that I was "peeved" at him. When he said that, it was like a chunk of my soul was ripped out (sorry for being dramatic :P). I can't let him say those kind of things. It's not the human nature.

Well, you did try to talk to him didn't you? That was the right thing to do... but the bad thing about this world is, often times, you just can't deal with people like that. They don't think the same way you do and don't even understand the way you think. The best thing you can do is to let karma catch up with him, and trust me, it will.

People who have those kinds of problems shouldn't be insulted. What does that accomplish? Nothing. We must comfort them and help them get out of the habit. Insulting and rejecting them will only make it worse.

Your only looking at it from your side. I told you that everyone has problems, and you agreed. That kid has problems too, and he expressed them in a negative way, just like your friends do when they cut their wrists. Making fun of someone and cutting your wrists is all a negative to get rid of your problems. The world is a harsh place, get over it.

The world is a negative place. You're right. However, shouldn't we offer comforting words and suggestions for the person with the problem? If we just be cruel at them, it could persuade them to do it again. The bully wasn't doing the right thing. He was saying "Ha! You have a very bad problem, and I will take advantage of it by insulting you!" If I show him how much it offended us, it will either make him back off, or persuade him to do it more. In my case, the bully chose choice B.

However, shouldn't we offer comforting words and suggestions for the person with the problem?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Certainly. Both the bully and your friends have problems, therefore you ought to show love to all of them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why can't people just learn to love? Perhaps it's because some people have never seen love. If you want others to love, you have to show them love first.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you" is quite the wise saying.

I can't believe that bully has no idea how offended we were. I wish he could just learn from what he did...but sadly, I don't think that's going to happen.

Alright, I'm done arguing with you. I've restated my point at least 3 times and each time you didn't see it. I'm convinced your not even reading my posts.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Good bye.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

P.S. Stop bolding every other word. I was trying to show you in my post before that, but obviously that went over your head too.
