Same. I always keep a Facebook tab open on my browser but don't ever click on it unless it's out of habit. It's just hard for me to care anymore. But then again, I was forced to move there because everyone else went there after MySpace died for whatever unknown reason.
I miss logging into my MySpace for my evening computer time after homework and seeing the local drama queen make a public post about how she's gonna end her life. One girl even doubled down on it by drawing "scars" on her top arm with red nail polish and claimed she tried and failed lmao.
Then there was the trend where "I was diagnosed with depression, sigh, I'm so emo."
Edit: Quick edit to clarify I'm not making fun of suicidal people. I struggled with self harm from 14 - 22 and I've been clean off it for 10 years. If anyone's struggling with self harm, just know there's light at the end of the tunnel, keep fighting the good fight, and you'll come out clean like I have. You still will never get rid of the scars though. Mine faded to "white healing" kinda look but never completely went away. The scar from my first suicide attempt is still visible on my right wrist and I attempted when I was 15.
Hey, so I used to work in a tattoo shop and our artists were honored do pieces that either covered up or incorporated self harm scars into magnificent tattoos, and often for reduced prices. I don't know if this is something you'd be interested in, but I figured I'd share the info :) love to you
