What if your tweet is bullshit?
-
That was very rude. It's a "What if"," not a "It is." What if you didn't say that, and you weren't disrespectful? Who knows!

Dude, what do you know about depression or mental illness. If you knew anything you would know what a bulllshit thought that is.

There is difference btw people with depressed outlook vs people suffering from depression
