    have you ever told a depressed lonely person to "just chill out"? not exactly sound advice

      you can be depressed and lonely and not just text "help me" to random women. I don't mean "chill out" like "simply stop being depressed" I mean "talk to people with a less demanding tone"

      I'm depressed and lonely and I manage to do it, though I admit if someone told me to chill out I probably wouldn't like it very much either. I'm just saying he'd get a lot farther if he said something more chill like "hey I haven't been able to talk to many people lately do you think we could chat and maybe catch up a bit?"

      "I'm lonely help me" makes you look like you're fishing for some poor lady to become your gf so she can "fix you" in a toxic relationship
