You’re definitely right, it sounds bad but I had to stop talking to quite a few people when they were extremely depressed. Not because I’m evil but because they really dragged my mood down.

Nothing I say would ever help, hearing the same thing everyday eventually gets tiring when they don’t seek help.

I had a friend who used to self harm and would send me pics of it for attention, I tried helping for a start but yeah eventually I had to bounce.. Before I ended up crazier than her lmao.

Definitely not an absolute, i’m sure some people just need that one friend to get them out of it. A lot a lot of those situations definitely aren’t good for either party though.
