The Social Media Experts....

I had no thought about making a blog. But I had to speak. Stop trending Depression... Stop making a hashtag out of it. 

First of all, someone is dead. Let him rest in peace. Stop judging whether what he did was right or not. You guys have never been depressed, so stop treating it like it's cowardice. It takes courage to end one's life, even when life seems hopeless because alive itself means hope.

Trend that an actor is dead like you did for Irrfan Kahan, Rishi Kapoor. But don't trend depression. It depresses us, the depressed, even more. Some of you are making memes on Depression. Like it's a joke. Others are busy being compassionate while the truth is when you get used to SSR's death, you'll come back to "aaa depression is just an act. Oh it's nothing!".

You all got used to CAA NRC riots, to muslims killing hindus, hindus killing christians, and this long and everlasting chain of communal killings. You all got used to covid-19, to more peole dying out of hunger, not corona. You all got used to amphan. So, it's inevitable that you'all will get used to "#depressionisreal".

So, don't, just don't make a shit of it now. Don't tell me that depression is serious, don't tell me that SSR did not do the right thing. Don't tell me that you care. I am 22 years old. Your 1 week's trending depression topic won't change this truth that YOU DON'T CARE!

You know what causes depression? Your attitude that our pains are self inflicted and not real, that too from people we love so much. The funny part about depression is that if you win, people will love you and always remember you. But it you lose, they will forget all the fights you fought alone and internally, trend you for a month and then forget you entirely.

Once again, the winner takes it all and the loser loses everything. The very fact that cause depression in the first place.

So, I request you all. Don't try and turn someone's death into your publicity stunt. Life is difficult enough already for the mentally tired, i.e., us. Don't make it hellfire for us.
