As a person who suffers from mental health issues, your comments are really inappropriate. You can hurt a lot of people by acting out in this way. I get that you're only trying to inform people by explaining how a scene like that is acted out, and so now I'm kindly trying to inform you that your comments can hurt people. Please treat a situation like this with more care in the future and remember that not everyone thinks the same way as you do. I really don't think that you intended to post a hurtful comment, but people can take it the wrong way. Lashing out at people when they confront you isn't the best approach to reach an agreement. Everyones mental health should be treated gently and treated with respect.
This movie was ok. I'm a big fan of Train to Busan and this movie doesn't match up to that movie at all. But comparing the two movies, #Alive is more realistic in my opinion. Although it's still fiction, of course, but staying inside is a realistic approach if a situation like that would arise. But this is after all a movie and most often people love action and excitement more than realism, ESPECIALLY when it comes to zombie movies. So I think that people might've been a bit disappointed because of the more realistic approach that this movie takes. But I can only speak for myself.
I agree with a lot that you said in this article. I too have suffered with my mental health for years and am now…
Thank you so much for opening up about your difficulties. You sound so much like myself. I really can't stop crying while reading your comment. Your comment is the hardest one for me to answer out of all of the comments I've gotten so far. So I don't know if I'm answering this in the right way, but I can just be honest.
First, I would just like to say that I want to give you a hug, although I can't do that. I don't know exactly how you're feeling, I can only really compare it to when I felt my worst. For me, it was last year. I had just started senior high school/gymnasium for the second time. Everything was dark, I didn't see any light. I wasn't living. I had made a plan of how I was gonna... well, leave. But then I though "f*ck it, might as well try everything else first". Because I didn't have a purpose, I had nothing to loose. So I quit school, wrote a long letter to my parents and decided to pursue music. Although I got a lot of criticism, it was the best decision I've ever made in my life. I worked on myself a lot, a lot, and everyone around me says they can tell that I've gotten better. I feel a lot better. Although all of my mental health problems aren't gone, the blood-sucking demon called depression have been defeated. I decided what I wanted my first song to be about, made some sort of melody, and now I'm currently trying to make it into an actual song. It's a lot of fun!
I don't know what I'm trying to say with this exactly, I just want you to keep going. Maybe this is out of line; but just do everything you want to do! As long as it doesn't hurt you, do it. I don't know what you're suffering from, I don't know why you are suffering from it, I don't know whom you have in your life to support you, but I hope I was able to give you at least a little bit of strength. I'd love to talk if you want to talk. Take good care of yourself. I hope your healing journey will get easier soon. <3
Lot's of japanese titles int his article, but there is one you forgot.:Kekkon Dekinai Otoko (man who can't get…
Feel free to add more titles. :)
You are using a lot of complex words lol, but I understand what you're trying to say. It's still an ongoing issue. Mental illnesses have existed throughout the human history (or whatever you call it). It's important that we don't forget it/shove it to the side and keep remembering/working on healing mental health issues. Using media to remind us of this can be risky, but it's sometimes done right.
All of the dramas I've listed aren't necessarily discussing a mental illness. They are just the dramas and movies that have helped me personally while dealing with mine (depression, anxiety, panic attacks etc etc). I wanted to share them with my fellow drama lovers in hopes that they could help someone else.
Thank you for commenting and for sharing your point of view. Tack. :)
I don't know you but I'm genuinely happy that you're still here, that you found a therapist that works for you,…
Thank you so much <3
A lot of media almost romanticises mental health issues and use it as a personality trait. Personally I've never met anyone like this; but I've heard that some people pretend that they have a mental illness because it seems cool or mysterious. I suspect that they might be influenced by the media. In my article, I think the two shows that portray mental health issues in the most realistic way is To Each His Own and Skate Our Souls. In my opinion, those are good examples of what we should strive for when discussing/portraying a mental health issue in media.
You know what ? I’m just like you. I have mental problems and dramas (amongst other things) are my way to forget…
Yes, it's the little things, they can be enough to keep going. I was feeling really bad but remembered that my cat was sick and I had to take care of her, so I couldn't disappear. A lot of days I only kept going because I was wondering what BTS would do the next day. Or I was watching a drama and wanted to finish it, or I was in the middle of drawing a piece of art and wanted to complete it. Enough of those little things can give one the strength to seek help, they give you a reason to continue.
Always put your health first, everything else comes in second.
Thank you for sharing your experience on the matter. You're right, everyone is different. But I still stand for…
Hmm.. maybe I just don't understand then. If that makes you happier then keep doing that. I don't really see how age fits into this tho, but ok sister. But I mean, there have been times where I also prefer watching more lighthearted and happier shows when I've felt down. But for me, that was me ignoring my feelings and distracting myself from dealing with the problem and try to get better. So I find that after finishing watching something more sad, I stop to reflect and remember why I'm feeling down, cry it out, then look for a solution. I just wanted to share this with my fellow drama lovers in hopes that it could help someone else or be relatable to people. But I see that I was shortsighted, of course there are people who don't relate to this and who might feel better doing something else.
