I hate how depression isn't taken seriously in some cases

I hate how some people seem to take depression seriously only when they attempt. Why does there have to be proof that one's depressed? Do they have to sh or attempt suicide for people to take things seriously?

I'm just talking about society in general here.

Even when I told my mother I'm depressed, she only thought that if I take meds I'll be somehow better and not need comfort, and never took it seriously.

I hate how depression is ignored.. until one already committed. What's the point then?

I want to be pretty and cute in a boy body, but instead I'm stuck in this stupid ugly girl body :p

I want body hair

I see so many transfems complaining about body hair. But as a trans guy, I really really want body hair...

I'm actually enjoying

I've been thinking about it and... I actually kinda like school now?

Nothing huge happened, I just realized I've been enjoying being there lately.

My teacher even complimented me today and that made me really happy :3

And I have a school trip tomorrow so I'm actually excited <3

I'm glad I found this place :3

It’s been over a year since I found Reddit, and honestly, I can’t even imagine my life without it anymore. Reddit meant everything to me during some of my worst days, and somehow I’m still here, over a year later. I’m really happy I made it this far.

I'm not okay..

Hi guys. I'm... not really okay rn. My online friends are growing distant with me, and they are everything to me. I don't blame them since I know they care, but it's true that they haven't ever been texting me lately... My parents don't realize how serious my depression is, and my mother keeps calling me daughter knowing that I'm a trans guy. The sh thoughts are coming back. I can't resist the urge anymore. I'm js... too tired yk? I just don't feel like I can do this anymore. I just want to rest for once. Lay in silence forever. It would feel so great. So overwhelmingly perfect at last. I'm sorry that all this is out of context. Sorry... for everything...
