Like idk, older generation feels so weird… like they feel kinda intimidating…

I remember I kinda skipped my paternal grandmother’s funeral since I’m depressed af and I didn’t even know her well and never liked her, and had to go to another city and didn’t like the travel time… so I didn’t go, but the rest of my immediate family went…
So yea I probably look like an asshole to them… but like… this is Chinese culture… mental health isn’t talked about… so my parents just lied and told them I had college stuff and was busy. I wasn’t even in college anymore, too depressed and I withdrew. So…
Fucking conservative cultures… can’t even mention depression cuz they see you as “ooh scary crazy person” or maybe “useless weakling”
You can’t choose your family, but you can choose your friends. Make sure to choose wisely.
Also: depression is no joke. Hang in there and don’t let the bad thoughts win.
