Now days we see kids on social media faking depression which has led to people joking about it and not taking this issue seriously and kind of ignoring people who really suffer, thinking that they are seeking attention.

While I’ve joked around about this a few times, something happened this past week that made me feel guilty and almost responsible for what happened.

I have this classmate, whose been bullied by others for no reason. My friends joked about her and I joined sometime too, not thinking that it’s going to hurt her. While I still didn’t have the intetion to hurt her nor did the others, we did in fact hurt her. These jokes led to her having depression and feeling worthless. Now, this joking around has been going on since last year but she never really said something about it.

Forward to this week, she has been in the hospital because she OD’d with pills wanting to kill herself. Not many people know as of right know but I really feel guilty because I might have played a role in all of this. She’s fine now and has been talking to a therapist which has really helped her.

I’ve know been thinking about it a lot and if her mom wouldn’t have found her I would never be able to live with myself knowing that I played a role in all of this!

If you read this thank you because I had to get this off my chest.
