I recently cycled into another depressive episode and was doing my best to cope with it as it is, so I decided to go into the emotional support chat to get my mind off of things and maybe help some other people out. I'm not going to name any names, but one person mentioned
Possible trigger:
A bit later on, a few people were discussing video games so they decided to go to a different chat room. When they left, I said "I want to join in on their conversation, but I feel too weighed down by depression." Then this guy from before told me "Shhh. Don't talk about depression. It may trigger someone! Shhh. In fact, don't talk at all." He said a few more things along the same lines and at that point I felt myself shaking, which happens if I feel attacked, and I knew I had to leave. As soon as I left I broke down crying really hard when I had been trying so hard to cope even before all this. I shouldn't be feeling worse from an emotional support chat. I didn't say anything rude to him whatsoever, even after he said these things to me. I even told him that I'm sorry if he felt offended from earlier, but that no one is trying to make light of his problems. Maybe what he said is not a big deal to him, but it is to me when I was already on the verge of breaking down. I just really didn't need this today and I wanted to get it off my chest. The only thing that's been positive today is the fact my mom called me on the phone earlier, and seemed to be a lot more accepting of my condition and the fact I am on medication for it. So that was nice.

Idk I'm in maybe the unpopular opinion that if someone is in emotional support yes they may feel suicidal and need emotional support
Sometimes I think the trigger thing gets ridiculous Why have emotional support if you can't say how desperate you are feeling?
