Being EMO. What is Emo exactly?

seriously stop giving them attention and defending emo's.

if i here that emo and depression are linked i'm gona scream, they are not real issues, yes some may have but on the whole it is attention whoring.

you do know that cutting is in it's self a seek for attention!

if you want a reason i have such an issue with them is that i actually know about mental health, i have to know about it for my job,
it runs in my family, i have mental health issues, one of my close friends in college was bi-polar.

trust me emo's are just little bitches that need ignoring.

 

I Suffer from Chronic depression and a personality disorder,i abused my body for 10 years(cutting,burning etc etc) before i got help,when i did i was sectioned for 6 months because i had temporary psychosis from keeping it all in for 10 years.I was then on suicide watch for 5 months,then to top it all off i was then homeless for 2 years.Ive been on meds for most of my life.

And after all that shit all i got was "emo",when i wasnt,i didnt even fit into the catagory lol.I was your average joe.normal clothes,listened to blues and jazz lol

i never cut myself coz i wanted attention,its because it was my only release.I only come out with it because i started hearing voices.

so not everyone doe sit for attention,people can do it because they simple dont know how to deal with shit going on

I aint making that up,or looking for attention,im saying it because people out there are to scared to get help,because they dont wanna be judged,by mindless numbwits with nothing better to do then mock others.

 

Emo persons have a mind of their own. It's unique. They live in their own world where everything sucks

 

When did 'unique' become looking like everyone else and having no thoughts of your own?

 

When they stop being 'mainstream' you sellout.

 

That's cool, start an argument by being a dick then back out by calling me the dick

 

Haha. I like it!

 

this is my point.

people with real issues do not go around sitting in corners crying making pathetic cuts and crying for attention and dressing like goth fruit.
people with real issues nobody knows about.

if you have issues your self or had i don't know why your not in agreement, is it just because they are under attack and you want to defend them? do you not feel that they destroy the seriousness of real issues?
you your self said you got called an emo when your issues where real does this not piss you off?

and i hope you know we are not talking about emotional people in general we are talkin about "emo's" these things:

 

Wow I said the same thing like 4 days ago

 

Everyone's opinion of being emo is different...


My opinion from the one I know (and a few simerlar cases) are they do want help but they choose to hurt themselves rather than ask, or may be in a dark place of their mind (or psycosis) so far gone they go crazy...



Seems you equitypetey have a massive dislike, do you know any on a personal level?


Some are bad, others are infact people who need help...and in some cases they are just people with a strange fashion sence like the one's I see in the city.


I'm guessing like my old attempt at an emo topic, this is only gonna get bashed...people accept gays, blacks, but shun anyone with tag themselves as emo...

 

yeah i've known emo's on a personal level, when i was in college anyway.

some were friends, but after a while it got to the point where they didn't want help they just wanted attention and it got ridiculous.
and every one i have met is the same the only time it's not that way is the ones that define them selves a "scene" but they are far from emos bar the gay hair cuts and girls jeans one size too small.

 

Where i'm from, Emos slit their wrists and whine about how crappy their lives are.

And it "feels good" to them to cut their wrists...which i would find very unpleasant.

 

what he said^^^^^^^^^^^

 

Did anyone tell Ren about the secret messages yet?

Also, people with real issues go to bars and drink until they forget them. Then, they start fights and black out.

 

It's like being gay, with more black and baw.

 

If he figures them out, he figures them out. These posts alone should be all the help he needs.

And yes, I know people that drink themselves into a somber state of apathy.

 

I really wonder what emo's do when they have a good day and a good mood.

 

Same thing as usual. Slit their wrists, and then bitch and cry about how it hurts so much.

 

To try cutting one's wrist requires a really f***ed up mind.


I tried it once when I was in a depressed state...and normally pain goes right over me.


I've had 20kg objects hit my head and no reaction, I've had my foot ran over, I've had oil burns that I never noticed until they peeled off...but cutting my own skin was impossible...at least on purpose.


This is why I personally think it's related to depression, wether they think it feels good/bad or to relieve stress...you need to be stuffed to even try it.


If they are doing it for attention, just give them a loaded gun or offer to do it for them-by the throat.

I've never tried this, but ether one unlucky sap will get a way out of this life, or you'll make someone cry, ether way...results may occur...especially if the gun is real and loaded...

 

That's the only thing they know, they fail for it. It serves no purpose, it doesn't fix anything apart from get you into a loony asylum where everything is made of foam and you have to live in a padded cell whilst wearing a straight jacket..

On a side-note: How cool would it be to be in the of those padded cells and be wearing a straight jacket... Not only can you bounce of the walls in circles with no actual pattern but you're constantly hugging yourself. Oh the joys of being mental. [Half kidding, half serious]
