Today, I opened up to my best friend about my depression. Her response: "If you're so depressed, why don't you just kill yourself?" FML
I agree, your life sucks 31 204
You deserved it 2 217

That's ****** up. Please don't listen to her and seek help from someone who actually cares about your wellbeing.

I suggest you get a new supportive friend OP.

You need to get rid of that kind of person in your life. I cannot stress enough how toxic it will become for you and your state of mind. You need support, not someone tearing you down and poking fun at your mental health. I'm sorry, OP.

She doesn't need to be your friend anymore

That's sucks op but I think you should discuss these things with a therapist not with your friends it's easier that way

Please don't. I don't know if you laughed it off as her being an awful friend or not, but depression is a temporary thing that you will get through and become a stronger, more empathetic person than ever before. There's a reason that it's called the curse of the strong, and just remember that their our people who value you, and who need you to keep submitting fmls to a certain comedy website ;)

It's not temporary for everyone, but it can be made livable.

DO NOT listen to her and you need better friends. You are valuable!

Your friend's life is a FML on her parents part. Please ignore and remove such vile and idiotic people from your life. Get help, surround yourself with loving family and friends and heal.

Literally ditch that bitch. Find someone who isn't an insensitive **** who cares about you.

For someone who deals with depression,I'd tell them to go shove it and find a more compassionate friend

Honestly, i'm surprised you still called her your best friend in this.
