From my previously formulated emo rant:

Quote:
First, cutting: it's a legitimate problem in some cases, but here's the thing: people who want to do it for attention are mostly the ones you hear about. The people with an actual problem don't want anyone to know, ever. You'll probably never hear about it and i a friend is doing it, you'll have to interrogate the truth out of them. The people doing it for attention are ******** it up for the people who actually need help, because the attention seekers are obviously the ones people are most familiar with, people start assuming hey're all faking making it had for the real ones to get the help they need.

Second, I have a similar problem with 'emo' in general. That is NOT real depression. People with real clinical depression do not write peotry, crappy or otherwise. Depression saps your energy and creativity. You don't write or draw or do anything of the sort. There is no eyeshadow and black clothes and all that involved in real depression because depression saps your energy: you don't have the get-up-and-go to get up out of bed and get dressed. You don't care about how you look and just hang around in sweatpants. I think you get the picture. Popular culture like emo glorifies depression, sets it up as an attention getter, adorns it with trappings that have nothing to do with it. And these people are seeking attention, and so many of them are just in it for attention or fashion. The statement "I have depression" loses its effect, and again, getting help ets harder because fewer people take you seriously.

Depression is not glamourous. It is debilitating.

I hate Emo, because all the people do is b***h and act like they're super important. (EX. "My life sucks!" or "Do you KNOW what I have to go through!?")

And, their suicide attempts and cuts aren't a cry for help. They're atteion whores. A cry for help usually results in ACTUALLY getting help. Most of the Emos just don't want help, because it will ruin their image.

If an Emos life was THAT hard, they could call PSA or discuss it with the school counsler. Or, see a doctor. But, do they? No. Because, they want to keep their whiny image.

That's all I can think of for now.

I've only been depressed a few times in my life, and I agree. I literally had no thoughts or emotion. I was able to lay on the floor for an hour, without getting bored.

Why I hate emos:


1.)They think that they're the only people in the world with problems.
2.)Cutting and self-mutilation

1.) Emos are always complaining about how much their life sucks and how they're ignored and hated by everybody. Everyone has problems. The reason everybody ignores you and hates you is because you're so God damn ANNOYING. I've been around emos and the ones I've seen never talk to anybody, are always in their little cliques with other emos, and never bother to pay attention to other people. No wonder nobody wants to know you. Plus they've polluted the entire country! You can't cry in public, wear eyeliner, or wear black clothing because everybody will think you're emo. Then again, that's just from my experience. Plus I have a friend Zeke, who is a goth, and he's totally pissed because people scream 'emo' at him. He's not emo! He's one of the nicest guys I've ever met and he has a TON of friends. But just because he wears black, chains and that sort of stuff, he's considered emo.

2.) This is the lamest attempt I have ever seen to get attention. I go to the life issues thread, and there's ALWAYS some emo there saying "I've been cutting myself again". Then they talk about how it 'eases their pain'. ?! Did I miss something? Cutting into your veins and making yourself bleed eases your pain? burning_eyes GROW THE ******** UP. The mere thought of hoping that if somebody sees the scars on your wrists they will barge their way into your life and help it become better is nuts. Fix it yourself.

Hey, I'm new here! -bows-
I have something personal against "whiners". Its a long story, but the reason why is because I had a bad childhood and I went 13 long years without a single true friend for reasons that were not my fault, that aside, I was incredibly depressed during most of my life and I comitted a form of self-harm at age 6 that at first sight, looked like something similar to biting your nails, a sign of nervousness or a habit instead of self harm, its called trichitillomania and I still perform it, but only out of the habit. My depression went undetected and I had no friends until it was too late. Loneliness is the worst kind of pain, one that loses his or her childhood to it ends up with bloodthirst and loses any feeling of empathy or compassion in the future. I'm a living example of it - a sociopath - and I had, and still do have, real problems.

One of the reasons it went undetected was, yeah, you guessed right, whiners who thought they had problems and stole the adult's attention from me when I needed it. Whiners that had friends and acceptance, something I barely had until it was too late. Whiners that bullied me, and yes, you heard that right, and as soon as I opened my mouth to protest, they would whine to the teachers and then the teachers would scorn me. Yes, I was bullied by teachers too, teachers that only paid attention to the pretty blonde and blue eyed whiney girls, because when I was depressed I kept quiet about it, YA RLY.

Do I believe I have real problems? Yes, they're real. Do I believe I have it so bad?
NO.
I do not have huge problems, I am not starving in some random region in 3rd world Asia nor having my family slaughtered in Darfur, I have not lost any of my relatives or have been raped or abused in any physical way, I am not an orphan, I did have my mom to lean on. Most of the world's population, probably over 60% (95% probably have never touched a keyboard in their lives) are living in incredibly ugly situations, but guess what? They're LIVING. Anyone who is weak enough to kill themselves over something as TOTALLY AND INSIGNIFICALLY STUPID AND TRIVIAL such as being jumped once in a while or being dumped, is seen as pathetic, weak, and useless in my eyes and is just wasting oxygen. They should be thankful to have enough food on they're ******** table, because a lot of people starve to death every day, believe it or not.
(In fact, I believe that's the same with the vast majority of the human race, but I won't bore you any further, and emos are especially a case.)

Emos, want to kill youselves? Let me help you.
PostPosted: Fri Sep 22, 2006 1:38 pm


I agree. If they are so depressed and just can't go on living anymore, they should go ahead and kill themselves. How many would ACTUALLY do it? None of them I bet. Or one will, and so the rest do too. Regardless which they would do, both would make them pathetic. :3

I hate emos for many reasons. Though, I do know some funny ones. The main thing that pisses me off is the cutting thing. C'mon people... REALLY?! Cutting yourself? How ******** pathetic is that. I'm sorry, but I could never see the joy in cutting myself in any way. I remember some girl that I used to sit next to in 6th grade(actually, a prep.), Who took out a razor, and started cutting herself. :/ In CLASS! She was showing a boy next to her how she did it or something. Basically, it screamed, "Look at how cool I am. I cut myself with a razor. Do you like me now?"
I dunno, but it made me angry. Pretty much everyone I know has cut themselves. Even non-emo people! A girl who I know that has nothing to do with the emo/goth/depressed anything cut herself! WTF?!?!?!
What is wrong with people!? Can't you like... tell someone about your problems? ._. I tell my parents EVERYTHING! In fact, I get my personality and opinions from my mom. If not that, can't you find another way? There are other ways to deal with that stuff. I just forget about stuff and move on. What happened in the past, is the past. It's done and over with. Move on, but don't totally forget. Oops... rambling agian... >>;

Anyways, thats the main reason. I also don't understand the hideous ripped up jeans. Uh... can't you just buy a cheap pair of jeans and rip shitloads of holes in them for 3% of the original price? It's a waste of money buying something that is ruined. :/

I don't like those emo bands... it's just ew. I'll stick to rock and j-pop. -_-

I hate emos because I've slapped too many of them for enabling people who are actually depressed to cut. Meaning that I took the knife and raged at a poor little emo kid who promptly said I didn't understand them.

I hate emos because they made cutting a fad. I hate emos because I have scars on my body and am labelled as a twit face because of it. I started the whole deliberately harming myself thing long long long before emo as a genre was even established. No one ever knew why the little eleven year old girl was trying to kill herself. Maybe it was because she was a pariah at school and people physically and mentally abused her.

I hate emos because they take all the seriousness away from teen depression. It's a serious thing and they make a travesty of it. A depressed teen crying for help gets smacked and called emo because of these selfabsorbed twits.

I hate emo. Because they make my life more difficult.


ditto.
I'm so sick and tired of having to listen to people that are "emo" and yet they feed off of it.

Hey!! Another one of us..
I've been self harming since i was a baby. Heck yeah. lol :p
I used to head bang against glass doors and such....hard. My mom always got so worried that i would break my head open.
Then when i started growing hair, i pulled it out. So i guess that's like 3 or 4. I haven't stopped that...i've gotten better though. Then by third grade i started ripping my lips to shreds. Whenever they bled i would suck it up. Heh...i never complained about life. Then when i was 14 i started other cutting and all kinds of SI crap. I've been clean for 4 months though! woot!
But i still kill my lips sad

A.) The ripped jeans isn't emo. That's prep. That's another topic for another guild. But i agree...they like the "homeless" look.

B.) No. Sometimes kids don't have parents they can talk to. Sometimes they aren't popular and even sometimes they are in such a situation where the only thing they can do to block the pain is cut. You should hate to see my body...

I'm not emo...heh. I scare emo's who cut with my pictures. Care to take a gander?
And no..i've never been someone to do it in public. I always covered my scars and cleaned up my "messes". twisted

I still pull my eyelashes out. sweatdrop
The reason I comitted self harm was because I was bullied because I was a foreigner and my ADHD affected my personality making me tomboyish and loud. xd

It may sound weird, but after so much depression, I'm imune to it now. wink

My main reason for disliking emos is that they are annoying whiners. "you dont know what it's like to be beaten" or "nobody loves me" 1. There are tons of people that i know that were not only beaten but they were raped and they still have a positive outlook on life and don't want to die and they don't get depressed. 2. Nobody loves you because you whine. Emos may feel that they "are their for each other but that's just because they are used to whining cuz they whine themselves. A happy optimistic person does not like whining cuz it is depressing and they just go on and on and on......like and energizer battery. xp I haven't had any EXTREME things happen to me, but i have been hated (though i dont know why) from grade 1 to 9. but look at me! i can't stand listening to depressing music and because i decided to change my life i have some of the most loyal and honest friends ever. I wouldn't trade them for anything. If something bad happens i can actually laugh at it now (strange ninja yes i know)

another thing i might note, though i dont know if it's totally true, i have heard alot of stories about preps who commit suicide alot. I have heard more cases of that then of an 'emo' actually killing themself (though i know it happens) therefore i figure 'emos' are just looking for attention....as if we didnt already know that.

why dont they stop thinking about themselves and letting their problems define who they are instead of taking life into their own hands and deal with it.....sheesh
