I don't understand why most people I've met, have to make how you feel into a competition. Why in the world do you have to disregard another person's feelings, just because you think you're having, or have had a worse experience then them?

Feeling like you're suffering with mental health, isn't a fucking contest. If someone feels like they're suffering, talk to them. Try and help them. Don't dodge how they think they feel, maybe because you think they could never possibly feel as bad as you do.

Shit would probably be easier to talk about, if people didn't make it a whole "who can be more depressed" thing. People wouldn't feel the need as much to constantly hide how they feel, because they think how they feel will just get tossed aside, like it doesn't matter.

Countless times I've met people with this kind of mindset. "You could never feel as bad as me." Maybe I don't. Maybe I do. Who fucking cares?! If someone feels like they're hurting, you kicking them down into the dirt and basically telling them how they feel isn't important doesn't help anyone. Everyone's feelings should matter.

It might hurt less if that was the case.
