bro is having a rough time, and all his 'friends' abandon him and him his problems are wrong . . .

First greentext that's actually believable

Nobody outside incels say that and they don't represent men at large.

[-] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago

Oh they talk shit. Maybe you just dont hear it because its about you.

Time and place for everything.

You usually don't choose when you have a mental breakdown. The big thing here is that he crashed out and not a single one of his friends cared about his wellbeing enough to try and help. Just got told to go to a doctor.

I mean not every situation is one where people are prepared to drop everything and be the emotional support.

Just got told to go to a doctor

Probably the best advice though

What was he supposed to say?

"Alright bro. I might not be a doctor, but I'll help you get an erection. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)"

[-] JayDee@lemmy.sdf.org 21 points 2 months ago

Comfort him. Let him know that he's not a leper all of a sudden for having a moment of vulnerability. Listen. Make sure that they understand that they're heard.

These are pretty basic forms of emotional labor that go a long way in helping folks, and can even save lives at times.

This is good advice, thank you for the reality check.

"Oh you broke your arm? Don't worry bro we will support you and set your arm right. No doctor needed."

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
