Stop judging people.

If they're depressed, sad, negative. Don't treat them bad. Stop fucking avoiding them and maybe you could save someone from killing themselves, this is what the world needs.

While I personally like helping people in these situations. No one is obligated to spend time, or help those that are in depressed moods. That's foolish to say. People don't owe you their time, and if anyone ends up killing themselves that is their choice and their fault alone. Treating them badly is of course not right, but that goes with anyone.

Honestly, it seems like common sense to just treat people how you would want to be treated. Especially when it comes to suicide, I think we don't take it seriously enough. We make jokes about it with peers at school and work, internet trolls never hesitate to tell people to end it all. I mean sure joke if you think the group can handle it, but if your mind is right you shouldn't be joking. But as for the trolls, really? how is one person ending their existence making the world any more pleasurable for you? If you don't like someone just don't talk to them, simple as that. All of human kind could really use a good dose of compassion and kindness. Sorry for the rant, I've just been dealing with some issues around this topic recently so I had to speak my mind.

It's easy for someone to say "Stop being so judgmental" I have had to break it up with someone with chronic depression, and I'll tell you why: 1. When your partner won't get out of bed to go to therapy sessions or won't regularly take their meds, it's hard on you. 2. When you're working 40+ hours a week and you come home, the place is still a mess, your partner is still in bed or just watching TV, and they didn't even have the courtesy to order delivery (Yeah, I don't mind if someone can't cook too good, so long as they can pick up a damned phone and have dinner waiting when I get home.) 3. When your partner constantly complains to you and holds you emotionally hostage (i.e. don't leave me or I'll kill myself!) and even if you gently ask them to do something they complain, it's disheartening. It's depressing. It rubs off on you. It affects your performance at work. Your social life. Your hobbies. You stop being a partnership and it more resembles a parent and child relationship. 4. When your partner isn't intimate at all. Doesn't even want to do so much as even fucking cuddle. That's when I said I couldn't take anymore. And for someone who said on a day in day out basis "I don't have any energy!" as soon as I started boxing up her stuff, she went from 0 to 200 in seconds and was up in my face screaming and calling me a bad person. When finally, I said "I can't let you hold my hostage anymore. You have to go." then it's like some flabbergasted surprise.

I don't feel any guilt about it. Some people are vampiric in the sense that they take everything from you emotionally. I'm one of those people who keeps looking forward. I took myself off the market for about a year as a man going my own way, learning to be happy single and to end desperation. Because of this, I'm able to handle stuff like that.
