@LukeAlmighty or just people in general. A lot of people I know have done stuff like that. Including me. Mental health has been at an all time low for a while.

Well, I am happy you aren't castrated as a result of depression though :ablobcool:

But as I said... It's a hard thing to wrap your head around.

@LukeAlmighty one of my friends was asking why people do that, and the only answer I had was that there is no rational thought behind it. It's just something you do. You're not in a good headspace and you do irrational things.

I feel like if I had been born 10 years later my chance of trooning out would have been MUCH higher. I'm so glad I didn't grow up with that shit.

@beardalaxy
Yeah... while I am sure there is a complex explanation, I totally get, if even people doing it don't "get it"... Psychology be like that a lot of the time.

@LukeAlmighty I'm sure it's something like feeling like you deserve pain or wanting to feel something other than depression or whatever, but that's not quite it. That's too edgy. It's not done for attention either, because most people hide it. It's probably more akin to a cry for help, like you're hoping someone will notice and ask you about it and make sure you're okay or something along those lines.

Remember to check in on your homies.
