When you get mentally beaten down so much that their words become your own self-talk long after they've stopped.
Being told to stop is one of the worst things you could do. Because it only makes the voices louder and the self hatred stronger for being unable to stop.
I do this all the time... I don't want to, but i dont know how it feels to not be that way. People tell me that all you have to do to get rid of those thoughts is be happy. But I dont know what it feels like to be genuinely happy.
Know that, too. The problem is most people donīt fucking care. They want to get rid of otherīs problems as fast as possible, and making someone stop "nagging" is just the easiest way to get what one wants. Of course, amking people and especially teenagers (sensitive and stuff) shut up and forbid them to talk about how they feel is the worst one can do... but itīs a fast "solution" .____.
...It's bad that all those voices still linger with some people. I sometimes have the same problem when I do art or something else that I like. I do my best everyday to fight it off...
I will never understand people who think that they can make others feel better simply by telling them to just "stop being sad." Someone who's depressed can't just stop being sad, and ordering them to do so as if it's possible will just make them feel weak and even more depressed.
