Memes that are too meirl for /c/meirl.
Rules:
-
Respect the community. If you're not into self-deprecating/dark/suicidal humor then this place isn't for you. Kindly just block and move on. This is just how some of us cope.
-
Respect one another.
-
All titles must begin with 2meirl4meirl. This is for multiple reasons. One is just so you can be lazy with titles but another is so people who aren't into this kind of humor can avoid it.
-
Otherwise just the general no bigotry, no dickishness, no spam, no malice, etc stuff.
Sidebar will be updated when I feel like and considering I'm Sadboi extraordinaire we'll see when that will be.

While I'm guessing you are making a joke, but it's in poor taste, if so. It comes across extremely poorly. A lot of people who really need help just don't try, because they expect something like you suggested. Also, those of us with mental health issues often get EXTREMELY dismissive attitudes from others.
That attitude kept me out of asking for help for over a decade. When I finally got to see someone, their help was amazing. They were extremely knowledgeable on the subject and helped me unpick the gordian knot that was my brain. They skipped over the "obvious" advice, only touching on it enough to be sure I had looked into it on my own.
Unfortunately it's not always the case. I had another psychiatrist take over, who was fairly worthless to me. I at least knew they weren't right for me, and I could be helped. "Jokes" like yours instill that it is all you will get.
Basically, watch your target with edgy jokes online. Without context, It's too easy to become the victim of Poe's law.
