or that you just honestly don't care about other people, periodI think this is more the case> I don't even know why you would want to get better. If, you do, that is.I'm still debating on that part...
-
People don't understand me...
-
You're okay with not caring about other people? How can you live like that. It sounds like you want to know what's wrong with us, and why we don't respect your views or care about you, when you have no desire to care about Abi's feelings, or the way we think.

You're okay with not caring about other people?Sometimes I find it hard to imagine how one can live WITH caring about other people...> It sounds like you want to know what's wrong with us, and why we don't respect your views or care about you, when you have no desire to care about Abi's feelings, or the way we think.It seems like that, doesn't it? I dunno...

It's for you to decide, over all, but as I stated, I don't care what you think or your opinions on anything, but the second they hurt someone is when I, and most other people have problems.Do you care about animals?
-
It sounds like you're not sure what you want. Have you ever sat down and just thought about what you want from your life?
-
That's a can of worms

You're probably right but the reason why I asked is because in one way, he wants to be more sensitive to people's feelings but in another way, he doesn't really care. It's confusing.
-
I was expecting the next post to be "You're an insensitive bastard" or something similar, so thx for not making it so> Do you care about animals?In the same way I care about random people I guess. I don't care, but I don't hate them either. They're just kinda there.> Have you ever sat down and just thought about what you want from your life? Just about every day of my life, yeah> he wants to be more sensitive to people's feelings but in another way, he doesn't really care. It's confusing.You're telling me... very confusing
-
Interesting. I know I tend to care more about animals then people, based on that all animals are generally good and... just try to live their lives. Animals, unlike people, generally harbor no ill will, and can love unconditionally. That's why most people find it easier to love animals, or care about animals.When you see an injured, hurt, or sick animal or child, do you feel anything?And deep down, are you satisfied with this? Does...thinking and speaking this way make you feel complete?
-
When you see an injured, hurt, or sick animal or child, do you feel anything?Injured/Hurt animal/child = I wonder in my head how they got their injury, but no general feelings for itSick animal/child = Nothing, just another sick person> And deep down, are you satisfied with this? Does...thinking and speaking this way make you feel complete?Am I satisfied with this? Probably not, but it's the best I can come up with and that's good enough for me
-
shakes head you either Know if you're satisfied or not. If you're feeling doubt as to whether or not it's the right thing, then you're probably not satisfied.
-
If you're feeling doubt as to whether or not it's the right thing, then you're probably not satisfied.That's what I said, I'm probably not satisfied. If you want a Yes or No answer, then the answer is No

So then, why are you not sure if you want to change?

> So then, why are you not sure if you want to change?
This is how I'm confused about that: I have my own views on everything, and I know they're different from most people, and that's fine. But then I say stuff like in the other thread earlier tonight and I get the feeling people misunderstand me. I then think about how shitty that really is and come to the Depression to make a thread about it, wanting to know what I can do so someone will finally understand me.
Then on the other hand, I don't really care why people misunderstand me, since I don't care about them.
But if I don't care, why did I make this thread about wanting to know why no one understands me?
See how I'm confusing myself?
-
I don't think you made this thread wanting to know why people don't understand you, but why they don't care about your views and why don't we make the stretch to understand you.
-
No...
I know for a fact that when I made this thread, I wanted to know why people didn't understand me (and as a matter of fact, I still do want to know, but since this thread has showed me something else, I'm not to worried about that anymore).
-
I understand you, I had a friend (well, more like I was there for him, and he came and went for help as he pleased), and he was a lot like you. When it came down to it, he wanted people to get him, and he wanted to be cared for, but not really care in return. Eventually he killed himself, but that was related to other factors (ended up being a paranoid schizophrenic) (holy crap I spelled that right)).
-
When it came down to it, he wanted people to get him, and he wanted to be cared for, but not really care in returnWhile I wouldn't mind if people cared about me, I've given up on that. Not expecting anyone to care makes things a little easier for me.> (ended up being a paranoid schizophrenic)I wish it were that easy for me

Jaded a bit?
He thought that the government listened to him from stations in Antarctica, and was a nervous paranoid wreck... It was *not* easy.
-
Yeah, that last comment came out wrong.But now I don't know how to say what I wanted to say, so yeah...At least he could name what was wrong with him. Me? I still can't figure what the hell is wrong with me...
