Can we stop dismissively projecting pet peeve interpretations onto posts that aren't worthy of them?
I didn't say "you are depressed". I said "have you considered that you might be...". When did that become diagnosis?
FWIW I said "clinically depressed" to draw the specific distinction between colloquial use of the word "depressed" meaning "down", and the medical notion of depression that covers this sort of stuff -- long term loss of direction, low self-esteem negativity etc.
It's just a suggestion to consider the whole picture and maybe seek advice.

- ecjhdnc2025 2y agoIt's not a matter of "I didn't technically say". I didn't diagnose. I made a suggestion. Full fucking stop. I didn't imply a diagnosis. I suggested the possibility (I even used that fucking word). That he might want to think about it. Because the entire tone of the OP's question suggested it to me. Based on my own miserable lived experience of the last two years, for what it is worth. So fuck off with this po-faced internet warrior shit.
