    Hi depressos,

    I'm glad this sub is still going. I started it back when the reddit API scandal happened because I wanted lemmy to have a depression meme page. I'm happy to see people still posting here.

    I am always pleasantly surprised when people use this space to trauma dump about the darkest parts of their lives. Mostly because I know that writing it out to strangers on the internet is sometimes the only safe outlet for thoughts about suicide self harm ect.

    This is a space where we can talk openly about these topics without shame judement or the fear of being involuntarily commited.

    Hopefully, this is also a space where mental health resources can be discussed and distributed. But I think we all know how hard it can be to find help that is truly helpful.

    Also would like to see more depression memes and moments where people can laugh. As a depressed person myself, I know that laughing at the depth of the trama is sometimes the only funny thing about it.

    Sooo, If you have funny memes, dark timez, stories of treatment or anything related to depression, please consider posting. We at a depression_now! also highly encourage stealing memes from reddit.

    Stay sad y'all (not really)

    Hi,

    I'm sorry your having such a difficult experience right now. It sounds like you've been thru a lot. Im glad you have come to this space to vent your frustration. This is a place to talk about suicide self harm and other topics related to depression. I have to ask you as a friend and a fellow depression haver please refrain from self harm. While it can be an effective coping mechanism it is also dangerous and can leave permanet scars or worse.

    The world is a dark place right now so some suicidal ideations are understanable. But please if you a seriously considering suicide seek help. Im happy to provide some resources to find a therapist or psychiatrist. I'm also happy to discuss other options

    If you just need to vent thats okay too. I just want to make sure you know that I don't want you to kill yourself.
