There's this guy on facebook who really irritates me. He says he lost his father and wife to suicide. Honestly it seems like he's using his wife's suicide for clout. I don't know, he just bothers me. One other commenter seemed to notice it, the way he acts when he shares her suicide note. Anyway, in general, people saying "it gets better" bothers me, like, sometimes it doesn't get better.

I think I've seen some of his reels. Did he attempt as well?

And I agree. Things havent gotten better in the past three years… only worse. I don't know how much more I can take 😞

I hate when people offer the false promises that it will get better! It doesn't always get better! The reality is sometimes it's pure hell staying here! I always wish my attempts had worked and I could saved myself from the hell I'm in. I never heard of this guy but he sounds like a liar! He probably doesn't buy the stuff he's saying and I wouldn't be shocked if he's a dedicated member on this site right now😒

Yeah, I think so, says he was an addict. He bugs me.
I'm sorry. It's a weird time to be alive. I'm not sure how much more I can take either. I'd give anything to go back in time. I know I'd tell the person who ruined my life to fuck off a lot sooner.

"It gets better" is one of my biggest pet peeves. It's survivorship bias. It's never gotten better for me. I'm that same hurt child I've always been, only older. Most of my peers didn't make it this far, and I'm only still here because of analysis paralysis .

I wish I could go back too. Except I'm the one that ruined my life and my daughters. I fucking hate myself. She deserves better.

I wish I hadn't tossed the shit that would've made this go away quickly... I hate that shit too. I don't think they actually care about anyone, it's just what they want to believe themselves. Most people don't want to admit to themselves that things get worse.
I was watching the emmys, and every single speech mentioned this timeline a "dark time" it was weird. The news has been using that phrase too.

Same. At least as a child I daydreamed and had some hope but I pretty much knew shit would get worse. Seriously though, fuck anyone who says that. Makes me want to ask them what they think will get better. Has anyone on their deathbed been like it gets better, if so they meant the sweet release of death.

I feel the same. I'm sorry.

A truly terrible parent doesn't even consider that they fucked up. You have a heart.

It's not just the guy sharing the reels, it's many people in the comments. I commented something along the lines of it doesn't always get better, some woman replied "it does get better 🙏❤" of course on her profile there was a picture of one of her loved ones captioned "no more pain and suffering"
Also the asshole I've wasted years talking to has been full of toxic positivity, saying at least he knows how to be happy, only to find out he's truly miserable and just wanted to make me feel like shit for admitting I feel like shit.
The parents of my best friend who passed away keeps saying things HAVE to get better. I shut my mouth, because, hello you lost your fucking son how does it get better?
Went to the cardiologist to get a heart monitor and she tells me her life fucking story then tells me oh you're young it will get better (I'm middle aged). I have five fucking specialists for my condition and a broken heart but the picture of your horse is inspiring. I have a progressive disease and even the doctors can't be honest. I've only had two doctors be honest with me. One said "you have a tough road ahead" the other said "there's nothing more we can do for you" but the rest of the doctors I've seen just want me to believe their medications will help something with no cure. Rant over..
