Venting listening to problems

[aunique]

idk man it's just every time someone offers to help and listen they start saying shit like oh I can relate and other people are going through shit too or telling you to just not to be negative. Like why even bother to listen if you don't care or willing to understand, I get that people are trying to help but they're so blind to what they're saying and not realizing it makes things so much worse.
(there was a post posted earlier about "others have it worse than you" and I also think that it doesn't benefit the current state of being if you're also in a bad place. Each situation is different and perceived in a different way, and the fact that other people are doing worse doesn't make my situation any better).

It's really shit I can't stand it

My mummy used to say, "If I have no shoes, why would it cheer me up to hear about someone with no feet?".
I get my clinical depression from her.
