Does anyone else deal with this too? People calling you crazy just because you have problems and they don't understand you, or just simply refuse to? That is all I've ever heard most of my life any time I was hurt or angry, even my family would say it and guys I liked who hurt me even though I do not have any delusional disorder and do everything I possibly can for my mental health like take meds, go to therapy and exercise etc. People still dismiss me as just a crazy person because I struggle with my emotions, especially when people HURT me and often times, doctors don't even take me seriously. I kinda get the opposite from them where they just dismiss my depression. Seems like people only ever say it to abuse and bully me because it doesn't actually ever "help". That's what they always love to say.. that they are just trying to help you even though they are actually the ones upsetting you and making you act that way in the first place. So, because of this I deal with a lot of shame and don't see the point in living anymore because if you are someone who suffers like I do, your feelings and thoughts just get dismissed. The world isn't kind to people who feel too much or who defend themselves. They always turn themselves into the victim despite attacking you first and now I even have people making accounts just to call me crazy because I like someone extremely popular who they also like too and want attention from. But they act like I'm the one wanting attention and call me names, then tell everyone I'm crazy when I get upset and angry at their lies. It's gotten to the point now where it's actually EFFECTED my mental health and reputation as a result. I have been humiliated online and no one talks to me. I am always left out and made to feel like the bad guy even though people come TO ME with their unsolicited opinions that are HURTFUL and attack me FIRST. I have told them repeatedly I DO NOT find their words helpful, that it actually really hurts and to STOP but they continue to call me it, even after i BLOCK them (which they also act like I'm bad for despite coming TO ME first and me not wanting to hear from them), they keep making accounts to monitor my posts, slander me.. accuse me of things they are actually doing themselves and just try to dismiss me as "crazy". I am so ved up of that word and am at a point now where I just think what's the point in even living? If I am only ever seen as crazy .. despite doing my absolute best to look after my mental health, then why stick around? People only seem to treat each other like shit and don't care how they are making someone else feel, especially on sites like Twitter but even though I know they are strangers and not my fucking doctor, it still REALLY HURTS and I struggle to get people to believe me. I also wonder if it's true because I've gotten it a lot but my family was neglectful/borderline abusive and the men I liked who called me crazy also called me ugly, told me I was gonna die alone etc. So I don't know whether to believe these strangers online too who came TO ME and accussed me of attention seeking and called me insane but also insulted my appearance. Yet no one listens to me.. I'm always the bad guy and this is the final straw. I've been publically shamed and humiliated online in front of everyone and refuse to put up with that crap anymore. I feel my anger is completely justified in most cases and now it's even worse because I actually WANT to live so I can play my guitar and do things I've always wanted etc. I've made so much progress in my life only for it to be ruined and genuinely tried to be happy and be a better person but no matter what I do to improve myself both mentally and physically, it's still not good enough and I don't want to have to carry this burden of anger or shame around with me forever so I am planning on not living anymore as too much damage has been done and it doesn't seem to be getting better any time soon. The only reason I've stuck around this long is that I still hope things will get better and that I will finally get justice or the respect I deserve but maybe THAT IS delusional and I AM crazy after all...

Your feelings are definitely relatable. My depression causes other peoples's suffering but I can't just snap out of it. Whether or not you have a delusional disorder, everyone deserves to be taken seriously. They take depression as a way to get attention since everyone has depression, right? Your anger is obviously justified, it's that unfortunately, people don't take the 'mentally ill seriously. Well, what more can be said. It's just this cruel aspect of this world that drives people to suicide more. If the world truly was a good place, there wouldn't be so many suicidal people. Also, I try my best to best to stay away from sites like Twitter as its rather unpleasant and toxic. Anyways, I believe that no freedom can be found in this detestable world but either way, I hope things get better.

It sounds like you've been dealing with a lot of hurtful and dismissive behavior from others, which can be incredibly difficult to cope with. It's understandable that you feel frustrated and hopeless about the situation, and it's important to acknowledge that your feelings are valid. It's not fair for others to label you as crazy or dismiss your experiences, and it's important to prioritize your own mental and emotional well-being. Remember that seeking help is always an option if and when you feel ready, but it's ultimately up to you to decide what path is best for your own healing and growth. In the meantime, it might be helpful to practice self-care and self-compassion, and to surround yourself with people who are supportive and understanding if possible.

Man, i really feel for u on this one. your feelings are valid ... honestly, people just cant accept it when there's no one to blame. like. all my life i've been dismissed as lazy or doing things to hurt people on purpose, nobody even considered i could be mentally ill until it got so bad that getting any kind of help was too late for me at that point. i hate it. i hate it so fucking much, i get you. people will just villainise you so much when its really their own inconsideration and incompetence all along, and then when it shapes you or you react even in the slightest, suddenly its your fault again. Like seriously, people will act like they understand and then you actually show symptoms of that thing and suddenly you're the bad guy and your behavior is "uncalled for"<3 i hate it all fr
No intelligent, sensitive human being will ever say you are crazy. The mindless millions will be content with life as it is. The bank balance, the new car, the job title will be enough for them. Pity them. Remember you don't have to justify shit to anyone. In the end it doesn't really matter.
Your feelings matter. Don't forget who you are and never succumb to their fantasy world. Life is painful and if we don't feel it…it all just sweeps by.
