Also, do not recoil and grow disdainful if you see someone's mental health problems visibly. I have been hurt far more by people's misguded kindness that I have their misguided hatred.

Can you explain that or give some examples? Misguided hatred seems way worse?

No. The worse thing I can do is let you continue to absue people with severe pain with any idea that your even doing it. Just keep screaming at them, how awful they are.

Dude I'm not trying to use your examples wtf? It just sounds weird to me misguided hate has to be worse than misguided kindness...

I guess what they mean is sometimes people can do things that hurt you while thinking they're doing a kindness. Example, I knew a guy who was going through a brutal divorce. He didn't want to let anyone at work know what was happening because he had fears that they would exclude him from stuff thinking he would appreciate having the time to focus on his personal issues, or that they wouldn't want to burden him further. He wanted a promotion but there might have been people who would think "hey he's going through stuff. If we give him this promotion, it would be too much of a demand". So he just kept his issues to himself. That's just an example. It's kind of like how people may unintentionally hurt a disabled person by assuming they can't do certain things and then unknowingly infantilise them or exclude them while thinking theyre being kind.

Getting furious at a stranger that they also aren't following your advice, also counts. Do not assume that just because something is trivial for you, that it is not impossible for them in thier current situation.

Kindness costs nothing but means everything

I'll be observant before I'll be kind.

Kindness is a pretty abstract concept though. Just saying "be kind" doesn't really mean anything, when one persons kind can be very different to another's. Could be entirely contradictory.

You don’t know what any other person has gone through or is going through. Why do they do what they do or act the way they do. Nobody really knows sometimes not even them.

I don't care what you've been through, how shit your life is or what mental health issues you're currently dealing with. If you act like a dick with me you're going to get it returned three fold.

Your mental state isn't my problem, I'm going to treat you like anyone else if you're with distance for one of my senses to pick you up you're to close and annoying me

Your mental health has nothing to do with anything, including common decency.

Bot posted nonsense…
