      I would have never gotten in this position in the first place.

        If this dude genuinely has depression, then yeah, no shit. Congrats on being healthy.

          Usually being “lazy” is also the result of some kind of untreated medical issue or disorder like ADHD, autism, sleep apnea, etc. or any combination of those. Almost no healthy person would make the choice to sit around doing nothing for years at a time. Treating it like it’s some kind of lack of will or moral failing only makes it worse.

            I know you’ll forget about all of this in a couple of hours, but I want you to know that this won’t ever leave me. I’m sorry for making you feel this way.

              I’ve rewriten that comment about 4 times but I can’t get my wording right so I’ll go straight to the point

              You seem like a decent person, but no one can really know you from the few sentences you wrote

              But all they wrote was one sentence and I know I wouldn’t want to be in the same room as them for one second of my life.

              What a piece of shit they must be to write something that heinous to someone showing vulnerability

              Don’t take what they wrote personally, they’re rabid, what they wrote isn’t a response to who you are

              internet hugs

                I genuinely appreciate it, seriously. I really shouldn’t have gotten as dark as I did in the first place tho, this topic is just a really personal one. And idk, maybe what I said brought up some bad stuff for that guy and he lashed out.

                But anyways, you’re awesome, thank you for saying something, it really means a lot.

              For what it’s worth I don’t think you’re so bad. It’s just the internet innit. I’ve been told to kill myself lots of times over subpar performance in a video game
