Why has depression and anxiety become a "normalised"

Depression isn't real

Stop this "le super sekret ebin depression club" bullshit faggot

The best ones are the "I'm so lonely cause I have social anxiety" ones that have Facebooks full of selfies and hundreds of friends. I fucking hate this life.

blame tumblr and reddit
they constantly bitch and moan about mental illness not being taken seriously, yet at the same time they treat mental illness like a joke with unfunny depression memes
if you attempt to call them out on their garbage, they double down by saying "hey man chill out it's a coping mechanism don't you get it?"
I hope there's a fucking day of the rope for those people

people don't want to look weak so being depressed sounds more serious then being sad

Because they think it's real. They think the few times they get anxious before an exam or talking to someone new is social anxiety. And they think that just because they spend a lot of time online and don't talk much that they have a social disability. They exaggerate everything to the point where to them, it does feel like real depression. And it's impossible to tell the difference from the outside looking in. this also applies to probably half of everyone on this board.

>Why has depression and anxiety become a "normalised" thing to have and popular with normalfags?
Because it's a fashion thing. If you dont have depression/nihilism/suicidal thoughts, you're treated like stranger.

I hate people like this. People with real mental problems don't brag about them online. They try to hide that shit.
