I’m actually saying there’s mentally ill people on lemmy to push them to get help from the rest of the lemmy community. Shaming people in hopes of improving them doesn’t work in my opinion.

I’m mostly making this in response of other users expressing their fantasies of me receiving violence and death just because I considered borrowing a bike that I did intend to return without asking permission. Yes wishing death and violence on other people is a mentally ill thing to do. The users reactionary to any context I gave even when they asked for the context. fun part is they refused to explain any details I asked for.

The mentally healthy thing is to try your best to act in good faith, and just stop talking to a person that’s acting in bad faith. I legitimately don’t care about bad faith actors because I’ll assert my opinions about what I believe and how they’re acting.

    Honestly, just with numbers I feel like help here is hit-or-miss unless there is an obvious/straightforward answer. Personal issues, I’m even less sure about… might be easier for those who actually can make real connections with people here, but that sounds rarer still.

    No idea on the bike stuff though. Except maybe the Arrested Development gag “And that’s why you always leave a note!” .

      Lol I actually would have loved that response if I got that at the time.

      I would say that something like 1 out of every 10 replies is relevant, accurate and insightful, the rest not so much.

      I probably would recommend against posting personal issues on lemmy because there’s toxic people on here and they’ll assume the worst of you.
