QUOTE(josh5671 @ Apr 2 2022, 10:54 PM) Am I? Sure you didn’t sound like you weren’t in your first message, though.sure i didnt hope it happen on his sister, you did know some parent never learn. so if it happen again. it just as per /k said another strawberry like his brother? or she fight back charsiew daughter will be another tag /k will put on her. And it depends on how you look at it. On the surface may look strawberry. But to leap off a building takes a lot of guts too. And whichever other means to terminate yourself. The newer gen doesn’t see the world boomers do. What is trivial to us or then, is of utmost importance to them and now. Peer pressure, academics, etc. Back then, if one can’t provide for one’s family, one goes sayonara. Nowadays, if one can’t flaunt your A+ in TikTok IG, one does the same. Looks so trivial but when you see how socmed works, how others flaunt their rewards from parents, whatever for their academic success, you kinda understand how they view the world. And this is only 1 example. |

QUOTE(Blofeld @ Apr 3 2022, 03:00 AM) I have been through that. Suicidal intention, extreme sadness, crying for no reason, leaning on a balcony, you name it, that was when i was much younger. Firstly, I hope you are much better now. Sincerely.I sought help from counsellors. Now thinking back, for a person to give up without seeking help first is just plain selfish. Or even without trying to work through the problem, or even without attempting to brace through challenges. School counsellors, friends, teachers, befrienders are there for you. One should take effort to speak to them. That's the reason why I need to share this. From my experience, I have seen others out there who have suffered much more worst (those things that are truly truly beyond their control) than this 'academic pressure'. To chose suicide over academic pressure is just selfish. Also, i have seen cases (on students) over the years who chose video games/entertainment over studies, then they complained they are depressed for not being able to score. In campus, you can see them not even attempting to help themselves. Empathy? I have seen others who suffered worst and yet they brace through. Those kind of cases where if you listen to their entire story, tears can really really drop from your own eyes because it's truly traumatic and beyond their control. And yet they brace through it. Coming back, has it ever occurred to you that being through one doesn't make you an expert in one? To put quotes when making terms such as academic pressure already means you don't understand the world in their POV. Secondly, you missed an important symptom when describing it; hopelessness/loss of interest in everything. Coupled that with the common culture here, it's no surprise not everyone calls befrienders or make a tiktok video to seek help. I don't want to make light of others' suffering, but in order to understand, one musn't decide what is more/less traumatic/important to another. |

QUOTE(Blofeld @ Apr 3 2022, 03:29 AM) I have experienced speaking to them. I have students coming to speak to me in my line of work. As would anyone else if their sufferings compel it. Unless one's a psychopath I guess.Yes, it's undesirable to make light of others' suffering but through my own experience of those speaking to those suffering from academic pressure and comparing to those who suffered worst, I would always sympathise more on the latter. And more often than not, when you peek through their daily life, you can see that they have not put enough effort on it to work out the problem. For example, putting effort into studies. Since you say your line of work involves speaking to people like them, it is all the more important that you don't apply judgement on the stories. Prolly if you peel the onions (note the s), you can piece the puzzles better. Why would one prioritize gaming over studies? Because of peer pressure? The need to belong to a a group of like minded kids whom are doing the same? Peel further, single child, always alone? The need to belong somewhere? Humans generally are social creatures. Note that I'm just making examples up, prolly none of these apply to those you've seen. Prolly also they're just ADD, not depressed. As for me, to see someone leap off a building, be it for something trivial or traumatic, POV wise, is irrelevant to you and me. It is everything for them. |
