AKA please, don’t tell me “get professional help”. Poor people can’t afford it anyways.

      No, I know it’s a difficult journey. My bestie struggled with hers for a long time. But she wasn’t defined by her depression. She went and got help to deal with it. Even with help, she still struggled, but less than she would have otherwise.

      Meanwhile, this person has a solution in front of them, and they spend more time coming up with reasons it won’t work than actually trying to do it. Help IS available, as people keep pointing out. Heck, last time they posted something like this, I responded with a list of support hotlines by region on wikipedia.

      As far as I can see, the only think stopping them from getting help is themself. So they need to get over that obstacle.
