I wish that people who dont know me would not assume that their feelings represent mine. Telling someone close to me how much I would suffer in the event of a consequence doesnt help or change that person. The person that this was aimed at knows completely how I would feel but this doesnt magically make things better, just like knowing that even though you will hurt badly if a family member or friend dies from cancer, that knowledge of hurt doesnt cure the cancer. Guilt trips dont work and can turn a sad day into a bad day. I handle my support in my own way as best as I can. R U Okay day is not for people to judge others, it is for each of us to open up about anxiety, depression and suicide and to stop stigmatising it. If you cannot speak to another person about their feelings because you dont get it, best to perhaps leave it at the R U okay.
