I read some people who vent on their posts or talk about problems they face in life and the replies they get is, no you are the problem, fuck you.

On Reddit, the only thing that is close to this is when women complain about their boyfriends, they got told to leave them, whatever is her complaint about.

Any explanation?

    so if someone keeps banging their head into a wall, and asks me why their head hurts, should i tell them how strong they are?

      You could empathize with them, if they’re open to it then maybe ask why it keeps happening. You could also say nothing if it’s a stranger on the internet. If this person is important to you then yeah, tell better them how strong and brave they are and how stupid and mean that wall is. There’s a time and place for constructive criticism.

      Who shouldn’t be taking care of themselves? Everybody and nobody. It’s supposed to work so that if you need help you get help and if you can help then you give help.
