Glad you talked about this, whenever i CR i always check on the paper-bird thingys to see what people have to say. I’m absolutely heartbroken when I see most of them are about self harm and ending themselves. Seeings the lantern messages made me want to cry, appreciate the video.
I could not have said it better. Thank God I haven't seen any of those messages, they really make me feel sad and worried for the person. Sky is supposed to be a little escape from the tiring world we live in. Sometimes I also wanted to vent things on the game, but something always stopped me from doing it. Maybe unconsciously I didn't want to bring negativity to new players or any other player who was also having a rough time in their life. Much love everybody and please, stay safe in the game and in real life. If you saw any negative message and you feel that it is affecting you, please, consider taking a break from the game and talk to someone you can trust. 🕯️💌
It's not appropriate to vent about trauma on a public child friendly game. There are many many resources and people who are trained and able to hear you. Your life is important. Glad you brought it up. Self unaliving, mental health is no joke. There are ways to bring up trauma playing on sly is not that place.
This is the most confusingly aggressive wholesome message I’ve heard. Respect to you though, thanks for speaking out about this. I can tell just how much you care, and I agree with every single point you made.
I never knew people vented in games! I feel so sorry for them. Some people might not have someone they can talk to but venting online can be very dangerous for themselves and others.
I have been to two different therapists (was diagnosed with clinical depression) and they will always lowkey assert that having mental illness will never justify you directly or indirectly hurt or do any kind of maltreatment to others. Trauma dumping may be considered maltreatment as you only want to vent out but do not consider the other party's feelings and well-being. Was both the dumper and the one people trauma dump to. Both were not good experiences.
This is genuinely why I've stopped talking about my worries or open up to my family despite my obvious depression. They know I have chronic depression, but to me, I'd rather they be able to open up to me about their own worries and issues instead of having to be dragged down by my issues that I know they cant help with. Venting on my part only makes it worse for everyone, and it is stupid so my notes app and twitter drafts are my own personal voids to vent to. ❤
I respect that you talked about this, I feel remorse whenever I happen to see those notes because I've been there before and I've seen some people on one occasion comment "womp womp" and "nobody cares" in response to those notes and that is NOT okay. My heart goes out to those who are hurting and I hope they get the proper care and affection they need and deserve. I speak from experience when I say Sky CAN be a comfort game, but you shouldn't look to it to comfort you. And thought people always say it and don't mean it, I do. It DOES get better, it really and genuinely does.
Thank you for saying something about this. Not only that, but some would trauma dump you out of nowhere in chat when trying to be friends. I wish them the best but trauma dumping is not okay. Especially if their are younger people around. I get they need someone to talk to but trama dumbing is not okay. That can mess up for the listener, emotionally and mentally. And it is sad to see suicidal and harmful messages around the map.
Tbh I needed this wideo. I'm in a very bad place right now, with literally no one to talk to and I left one of those messages on sky because literally no one else listened to me. I didn't think at that moment unfortunately, I just wanted to vent. This is why this video is so important, it helps me understand what should and what I shouldn't do even if I feel really shitty
Main problem is that it hurts others, and yourself. You put yourself out there in a vulnerable manner, and unfortunately there’s people that lack empathy and will be very disrespectful towards you. That’s why it’s recommended to talk to someone in person that you trust, or seek a therapist because the internet is unpredictable. I hope you receive the help you deserve, I believe in you!
sky added the ability to comment on boats, lanterns, shared memories etc. its possible that people could harassment the OP in their comments anonymously. this is dangerous. im glad you brought attention to it.
Just saying, people doing that aren't in right mind and are suffering from mental illnesses. it's very easy (and kinda insensitive) to just say "Don't do it, look for therapist". Some are merely looking for escape while having no ways to reach out and cannot control themselves. "Anonymity" in sky probably helps them for a short moment. I am not going to judge them for it or report them. I still won't. However, it was before they made the comment feature on sky. I do kinda agree with your take that they might get toxic replies with the new comment feature on boats and shared memories so they shall not be doing this if they don't want people to make fun of/shun them away for their suffering. But I still won't report because I understand the place they are coming from and I think otherwise about trauma-dumping. I don't get bothered by it. If there would have been a feature that we could instead refer to, such as "remove this message and send a care message" or something, it would have been a bit better for those people.
I completely agree with this to be honest. The boats were made to say things that come to your mind. If you don’t like the message just move on and don’t interact with it…
Even though I agree on the part of your comment that its not okay to say to ppl 'stop venting' but looking for ways to solve this problem like looking for a therapist is an important and neccessary step that not a lot of people take, but its important. Ive been there, and the hardest part sometimes is to stop complaining or venting and make this first step on the way to recovery.
@@zubatski I am not saying anything about effectiveness of therapy though. I know it helps. My comment was more about how to not assume the person doesn't know about therapy or doesn't know any better. If anything, they might not be able to afford it or is inaccessible for them and just venting out in the spur of moment, yk. But it's not a bad suggestion. I am not saying that at all.
Exactly like I kind of feel like making a video like this is sort of unnecessary? Like believe me, it’s NOT that easy for people suffering from mental illness to just “not vent”, they do it out of strong compulsion. But how hard can it be for those who aren’t affected by it to just move on and play the game?? Why are we dissing on those who are suffering for letting out cries of help?? The “venting about it on sky will not help you” part was so..💀I’m sorry but this person has clearly never struggled in this way, idk why they’re speaking on it...
As far as I know, reporting a message boat will not ban a player. People will just cease to see it and you woouldn't even know of it. It is actually helpful just to makr sure there will be no chance for a degen to reply on it and for others not to be compelled to do the same. Leaving those kind of notes already became normalized and it is not okay. We can't fix them. The only way of treatment is for them to have self-awareness. I am diagnosed with major depressive disorder, btw. Just letting us vent out or coddle us as a form of “care” will never help us because we will still feel shit no matter what. The road for betterment will only come from us ourselves.. the only thing others can do is to not make it worse.
I found this video on my FYP. I didn't expect there are players venting in Sky, I'm also surprised there's more insensitive players. Sky community supposed to be compassionate and supportive, but some players do the opposite which is weird to me. Internet is very unpredictable, we still need to be cautious no matter how comfortable the space is..
Ever since the update of being able to put comments under posts, there's been so many toxic replies to these things, so glad you're talking about this.
Ive seen these messages on remote boats or lanterns in out of bounds area, which probably is an honest attempt to vent into the void, but everyone is going to read the event lanterns for the event tickets... Thank you for talking about this!
Thank you for this video, your words at the last bit made me cry. Its not common that someone would actually address this sort of topic in the most humane and considerate way I could ever imagine. I have been in sky for so long, met great people along the way and knew of their struggles. I have to admit, I had been one of those people who had used the notes as a means of expressing how I felt, but it wasn't the most obvious. I did it through poetry and always made sure to add something hopeful since I knew it might affect who could read it. It's also thanks to a good old friend of mine that once told me to be careful of saying such sensitive topics online, especially to young children. As a person who cares for people even strangers, thank you for making this video.
The paperboats, swans, lanterns are super duper depressing, I'm kinda glad they added the ability to comment, cause when I read the Sad posting boats I usually comment something snarky or silly "unaliving" is narcissistic at heart, the people that talk about it are just looking for attention. So I give them the attention they crave by pointing out how silly they sound. People that actually feel like "unaliving" just have the conviction to do it and do it without a word to anyone. On a side note my girlfriend I met in sky used to send little "love boats" to each other every Monday in an effort to lighten the mood but that was before we moved in together.
I would suggest anonymous confession websites for those who want to vent but have no one to do it to IRL. Some of them allow replies and upvotes, some have their submissions filtered by moderators before getting posted, some don't. I'm not going to tell you that venting is 'drowning yourself in negativity without fixing anything' or 'always fine to do because you need it', because there are more reasonable viewpoints between these two extremes. Sometimes you just need to vent, just because you're venting doesn't mean you haven't/aren't trying to get help, et cetera. Do you deserve to be listened to? Yes. But there are still suitable times and places, as for most things. You deserve a space for that, and other Sky players also deserve the space that they signed up for in this event.
People feel safe to share how they feel. It can be inappropriate if they’re too graphic but I see no issue if someone wants to let it out in an innocent way. Report the inappropriate ones that are too graphic and leave the others alone. Most kids can’t process what people’s rants mean. I appreciate that someone cares enough to talk about it and post a video about it and you’re giving people other options but overall you can’t stop it and I think someone talking about their problems doesn’t actually harm people unless, again, it’s graphic.
Also just want to mention the internet commonly lacks safe spaces for people to open up about their problems. It’s taken me years of searching to find only a couple REAL safe spaces to talk about things/let it out. Obviously a game for any age isn’t the best place to vent/rant I have not seen many that are inappropriate for young people. Personally I find the suggestive s3xual ones to be worse than someone talking about being sad theyre alive.
I think the only place thats somewhat okay to vent is the Sky Memorial Area. You are expected to see not so happy stuff as that place is specfically ment for writing messages about your lost loved ones. Also trying to find that place without any research is quite hard.
Real, and its sad that the majority of children on sky are doing the exact same thing, posting boat messages and such like that- not truly knowing the true meaning of the words they are carelessly throwing out for others to see
I remember this one friend, they were going through it. We only talked once in the game I meant them when i was playing music then i let them use my grand piano becacuse i thought it would be cool I ended up gave them a i believe a- 5? hour therapy session then somehow convinced them to get a counselor because i couldn't be there for them as much as I'd like especially because of the different timezones
Unfortunately, this started right after the installment of message boats, almost 4 years ago. I've seem from breakups, toxic relationship vents, to the same topic you stated on your vid. What aggravates the situation is that now people can comment on those messages too... increasing the chances of trolling/bulling too.
Thank you. I knew I followed you for a good reason beyond being funny. Speaking out about something like this is hard, and I can hear it in your voice that these messages have been getting to you. Thank you for caring about the people who are hurting, and for the people who may be hurt reading those messages.
i agree. i have a friend who is older then me most likely an adult who has vented to me about stuff mainly half problems but I'm no doctor nor a therapist! I feel bad but I don't know what to do or why they do that but we mainly discuss that and it's mainly there part not mine I just wanan talk about fun fits,oobs,cr ectect not health problems when we barely know eachother.
i dont know your situation a hundred percent but with "adults" coming to younger teens with their horrible mental health is wayyy too common on the internet space (almost so much that i've seen it be described as a 'canon event' jokingly), please be careful out there and make sure you're able to get out if it gets too much, and remember that you should never feel obligated to constantly be watching over someone. if you're uncomfortable with them talking to you like this a lot i'd advise maybe temporarily blocking them just so they don't see that you're online every time.
Thanks for speaking up about this. I haven’t seen it myself or maybe I have but I couldn’t read them because they’re in another language. Either way, I agree it’s inappropriate. Unfortunately a lot of people are unable to get help for their mental anguish because of lack of access to medical care or because mental health is culturally stigmatized in their country. This causes people to lash out in ways that feel safe to them, but ends up being hurtful to others. All we can do is report the lanterns and drown them out with proper riddles like we’re prompted to, or with positive messages. And if anyone out there is struggling, please know that this pain is not permanent. All things shall pass and there are people out there who will help you wait it out. I’ve been in some dark places myself so trust me on this please. You got this.
it is not quite right to say such words for all people suffering from mental problems. someone just needs to speak out into the void, it will bring them a small amount of relief. others may skip the message and move on, but it will make a person feel better that at least some people saw their quiet cry of the soul. for many, Sky is a safe place where they can open themselves up and finally relax against the oppressive reality. you don't have to report such people, just walk past them. everyone copes as best they can. everyone fights as best they can. people with a healthy soul will never understand those who live differently
Those messages are extremely heartbreaking and I understand why someone would need to vent but I absolutely agree. Venting is not okay and a lot of things can be triggering for other players while also being harmful for young and impressionable children. I truly hope those who write messages like these get the help they need but this is becoming very prevalent.
I had no idea this was happening almost all of them are from people in my friends list but wow. Thank you for voicing this as its important to talk about this not to hide it or ignore it.
I'm 21 and I've struggled before. I'm not playing days of moonlight because of this. It is extremely triggering and this is suppose to be a game for all ages. These messages are appropriate for none.
like he said, deranged players could go in the message's comments and tell them horrible things that might lead the publisher of the message to do something irreversible. sharing things even your trauma, can be dangerous online.
Venting is okay as long as it's worded safely, to be honest. I’ve also come across a lot of vents that are so graphic, I didn’t expect messages like that to bypass the in-game censors. I get it, you might not have anyone to talk to, but of all places to mention SH, in-game? Sky? Yeah, I know it might sound stupid, like trying to protect the kids, but it really can have a big impact. [And the fact that most of the vents I’ve come across don’t have any warnings-]
I stopped playing sky, like almost a year break, i dont know what the people i ve met are ok or safe but i ll cherish every single memory i have of them even if we never manage to meet up again
Y'know, i was coming back to sky, never played after season of mischief but i did come back and now, i went to the new village thing and i set a candle message there (it was a hello again message) and then i saw a moth there put another message there, i was gonna see it and it was the same self harm message as always, its sad seeing this on a game i used to venting by PLAYING IT and not saying nothing, literally, flying around talking to people is such a good way to get out of such fucked situation, i hope when i come back again i can ask some players for heart (i ong wanna see if i can get a chibi mask to finnaly complete something)
I know that people say “hurt people hurt people” and I sound hypocritical because I make vent art and post them on my channel, but some don’t realize that it can apply to venting on kid-friendly games. Some kids are feeling the same way (suicidal and depressed), but seeing the graphic material like that can trigger them as well. There’s a reason why 13 Reasons Why is seen as a controversial show for people with ideations. Don’t trauma dump on Sky, but instead ask and reach out to someone in those messages.
это о чём я говорила все эти месяцы! я подружилась с один парнем в Скай , его имя было Дийар , он был из Ирана я помню всё что он мне рассказывал но в тоже время я соврала о своём возрасте и не могла рассказать всё о том что хотела (у нас очень разные языки и нам обоим сложно говорить на английском языке (мой уровень английского лишь позволяет читать и слушать , но сказать самостоятельно мне бывает трудно , а в его случае даже персидский не его родной язык!!)), но не суть... он рассказывал мне настолько его печальную жизнь , что я задумывалась "есть ли у него какая-либо радость в этом мире?" когда наш уже третий разговор шёл к тому что он вновь начнёт говорить о том что у него печальна жизнь , я его перебила и спросила "тебе поставили диагноз депрессия или пока предполагают что она у тебя есть?" и он ответил что он не ходит к психологу! (он видел как его друг умер и он не пошёл к доктору с которым можно было бы обсудить) может я что-то не понимаю, но никто не может стать близким человеком за один разговор! Он "доверился" мне настолько что сказал реальное имя вместо своего никнейма в интернете (друзья которые с ним дольше знакомы как я видела не знали его имя) , да мы поделились своей печалью , мне стало легче на душе (в какой-то степени) , но он как-будто не хотел идти дальше! я пыталась его радовать и веселить но мои нервы мне дороже..я его заблокировала и после удалила вовсе... Он не хотел принимать эту помощь и просто выплёскивал свою грусть на меня (нового друга который просто хотел общения) может я и поступила очень плохо, но я сказала что никто кроме специалистов в виде врачей\РЕАЛЬНЫХ друзей\семьи ему не помогут я не сильна в поддержке людей которые могли столкнуться с травмирующим опытом, но я достаточно сильна чтоб сказать что им она нужна и помогу обратиться к этим людям, даже если от этого зависит продолжится ли наша дружба или нет
My riddle is kinda dark but it’s good Time is a line my name starts with a D at the end of that line that’s where I’ll be who am I It’s a dark riddle I learned in class but it’s nice
Oh my English is not so good and you talk so fast. I don‘t understand well. But wanna hear exactly what you say. Could you translate it please. Oh unlock if there if is a transcription. You really sound angry. What about? I need to find out Transcription is very fast too. Jesus, which comments have you read???? But you talk out of your heart. It really impressed me. And this bad habit you can find sometimes at the direct playing 😢 yes, there are toxic human beings around. I didn’t understand everything. But I guess I feel you. And I thank you, that you have brought it out to that point. I try to make photos of the whole transcription that I can translate
A lot of people including me play sky as a form of escapism, for me personally it helps me forget about traumatic things that I think about daily and distracts me from self endangering thoughts because the atmosphere is mostly peaceful and the whole game gives me the feeling of being a child in a beautiful world unlike reality again

It's not appropriate to vent about trauma on a public child friendly game. There are many many resources and people who are trained and able to hear you. Your life is important. Glad you brought it up. Self unaliving, mental health is no joke. There are ways to bring up trauma playing on sly is not that place.
As someone who makes vent art on my channel, I agree a lot.
This is the most confusingly aggressive wholesome message I’ve heard. Respect to you though, thanks for speaking out about this. I can tell just how much you care, and I agree with every single point you made.
I never knew people vented in games! I feel so sorry for them. Some people might not have someone they can talk to but venting online can be very dangerous for themselves and others.
Mad respect for making a video on this. You were so reasonable in everything you said and mentioned.
One video won't stop it, but Thank you for this.
Spred it!
One won't stop it but it will get the ball rolling for more and more to make the move towards a better community and world
I have been to two different therapists (was diagnosed with clinical depression) and they will always lowkey assert that having mental illness will never justify you directly or indirectly hurt or do any kind of maltreatment to others.

I speak from experience when I say Sky CAN be a comfort game, but you shouldn't look to it to comfort you.
And thought people always say it and don't mean it, I do. It DOES get better, it really and genuinely does.
This is why comments weren’t a good idea

In Nintendo switch… the Days of moonlight event it doesn’t work at all… I’m glad for that… so I don’t have to deal with it…
I'm playing on Nintendo Switch right now, and it's works fine, but I can't see any comments or so because it's keep loading.
Ive seen these messages on remote boats or lanterns in out of bounds area, which probably is an honest attempt to vent into the void, but everyone is going to read the event lanterns for the event tickets... Thank you for talking about this!
This is basically a community service video and I absolutely love it. Perfect message. 🙏🙂↕️💕

Thank you for your efforts to spread this information. Though it may not stop it, we can only hope it will give people the right message
I remember this one friend, they were going through it. We only talked once in the game
I meant them when i was playing music then i let them use my grand piano becacuse i thought it would be cool
I ended up gave them a i believe a- 5? hour therapy session then somehow convinced them to get a counselor because i couldn't be there for them as much as I'd like especially because of the different timezones
Unfortunately, this started right after the installment of message boats, almost 4 years ago. I've seem from breakups, toxic relationship vents, to the same topic you stated on your vid. What aggravates the situation is that now people can comment on those messages too... increasing the chances of trolling/bulling too.
I used to vent a loooot about my abusive relationship also at 4 years ago, when I was a teenager (but don't worry now I'm fine)
Thank you. I knew I followed you for a good reason beyond being funny. Speaking out about something like this is hard, and I can hear it in your voice that these messages have been getting to you. Thank you for caring about the people who are hurting, and for the people who may be hurt reading those messages.
i agree. i have a friend who is older then me most likely an adult who has vented to me about stuff mainly half problems but I'm no doctor nor a therapist! I feel bad but I don't know what to do or why they do that but we mainly discuss that and it's mainly there part not mine I just wanan talk about fun fits,oobs,cr ectect not health problems when we barely know eachother.
i dont know your situation a hundred percent but with "adults" coming to younger teens with their horrible mental health is wayyy too common on the internet space (almost so much that i've seen it be described as a 'canon event' jokingly), please be careful out there and make sure you're able to get out if it gets too much, and remember that you should never feel obligated to constantly be watching over someone. if you're uncomfortable with them talking to you like this a lot i'd advise maybe temporarily blocking them just so they don't see that you're online every time.
Thanks for speaking up about this. I haven’t seen it myself or maybe I have but I couldn’t read them because they’re in another language. Either way, I agree it’s inappropriate. Unfortunately a lot of people are unable to get help for their mental anguish because of lack of access to medical care or because mental health is culturally stigmatized in their country. This causes people to lash out in ways that feel safe to them, but ends up being hurtful to others. All we can do is report the lanterns and drown them out with proper riddles like we’re prompted to, or with positive messages.
And if anyone out there is struggling, please know that this pain is not permanent. All things shall pass and there are people out there who will help you wait it out. I’ve been in some dark places myself so trust me on this please. You got this.
it is not quite right to say such words for all people suffering from mental problems. someone just needs to speak out into the void, it will bring them a small amount of relief. others may skip the message and move on, but it will make a person feel better that at least some people saw their quiet cry of the soul. for many, Sky is a safe place where they can open themselves up and finally relax against the oppressive reality. you don't have to report such people, just walk past them. everyone copes as best they can. everyone fights as best they can. people with a healthy soul will never understand those who live differently
Those messages are extremely heartbreaking and I understand why someone would need to vent but I absolutely agree. Venting is not okay and a lot of things can be triggering for other players while also being harmful for young and impressionable children. I truly hope those who write messages like these get the help they need but this is becoming very prevalent.
That’s just heartbreaking 💔😭
Great video, great words, great expression. I am glad you posted this. Everyone who watched your video needed to hear your words.
I saw the most depressed, more than sad riddle ever. For obvious reasons, I will not say it, but it literally made me and my friend *cry.*
Skykids please get this video more attention. The young ones can be hurt or traumatized cause of these shared messages…
I had no idea this was happening almost all of them are from people in my friends list but wow. Thank you for voicing this as its important to talk about this not to hide it or ignore it.
I always feel so bad for them I also say a prayer and than report the messages so no other children will come across it. So heart breaking
I'm 21 and I've struggled before. I'm not playing days of moonlight because of this. It is extremely triggering and this is suppose to be a game for all ages. These messages are appropriate for none.
Moose:Wish them the absolute best
Also moose: report them 😭
Prolly meant wish them the best first then report it afterwards? I dont know, but its definitely not the place to do it
@@petergriffin264 yea cringe
like he said, deranged players could go in the message's comments and tell them horrible things that might lead the publisher of the message to do something irreversible. sharing things even your trauma, can be dangerous online.
Venting is okay as long as it's worded safely, to be honest. I’ve also come across a lot of vents that are so graphic, I didn’t expect messages like that to bypass the in-game censors.
I get it, you might not have anyone to talk to, but of all places to mention SH, in-game?
Sky?
Yeah, I know it might sound stupid, like trying to protect the kids, but it really can have a big impact.
[And the fact that most of the vents I’ve come across don’t have any warnings-]
This may not instantly stop the problem, but its a good step in the right direction
This was an absolutely needed and well delivered video
this is so true, the same with older players venting to younger players
I stopped playing sky, like almost a year break, i dont know what the people i ve met are ok or safe but i ll cherish every single memory i have of them even if we never manage to meet up again
Y'know, i was coming back to sky, never played after season of mischief but i did come back and now, i went to the new village thing and i set a candle message there (it was a hello again message) and then i saw a moth there put another message there, i was gonna see it and it was the same self harm message as always, its sad seeing this on a game i used to venting by PLAYING IT and not saying nothing, literally, flying around talking to people is such a good way to get out of such fucked situation, i hope when i come back again i can ask some players for heart (i ong wanna see if i can get a chibi mask to finnaly complete something)
i tend to go to the memorial if i need to write things out there it wont bother anyone nor will anyone read it most likely
bro's speaking facts.
it's a sad reality 😢
People disliking this video are those who vent on Sky /hj
I know that people say “hurt people hurt people” and I sound hypocritical because I make vent art and post them on my channel, but some don’t realize that it can apply to venting on kid-friendly games. Some kids are feeling the same way (suicidal and depressed), but seeing the graphic material like that can trigger them as well. There’s a reason why 13 Reasons Why is seen as a controversial show for people with ideations.
Don’t trauma dump on Sky, but instead ask and reach out to someone in those messages.
это о чём я говорила все эти месяцы!
я подружилась с один парнем в Скай , его имя было Дийар , он был из Ирана
я помню всё что он мне рассказывал
но в тоже время я соврала о своём возрасте и не могла рассказать всё о том что хотела (у нас очень разные языки и нам обоим сложно говорить на английском языке (мой уровень английского лишь позволяет читать и слушать , но сказать самостоятельно мне бывает трудно , а в его случае даже персидский не его родной язык!!)), но не суть... он рассказывал мне настолько его печальную жизнь , что я задумывалась "есть ли у него какая-либо радость в этом мире?"
когда наш уже третий разговор шёл к тому что он вновь начнёт говорить о том что у него печальна жизнь , я его перебила и спросила "тебе поставили диагноз депрессия или пока предполагают что она у тебя есть?" и он ответил что он не ходит к психологу! (он видел как его друг умер и он не пошёл к доктору с которым можно было бы обсудить)
может я что-то не понимаю, но никто не может стать близким человеком за один разговор! Он "доверился" мне настолько что сказал реальное имя вместо своего никнейма в интернете (друзья которые с ним дольше знакомы как я видела не знали его имя) , да мы поделились своей печалью , мне стало легче на душе (в какой-то степени) , но он как-будто не хотел идти дальше! я пыталась его радовать и веселить
но мои нервы мне дороже..я его заблокировала и после удалила вовсе... Он не хотел принимать эту помощь и просто выплёскивал свою грусть на меня (нового друга который просто хотел общения)
может я и поступила очень плохо, но я сказала что никто кроме специалистов в виде врачей\РЕАЛЬНЫХ друзей\семьи ему не помогут
я не сильна в поддержке людей которые могли столкнуться с травмирующим опытом, но я достаточно сильна чтоб сказать что им она нужна и помогу обратиться к этим людям, даже если от этого зависит продолжится ли наша дружба или нет
You did your best. If this person didn't want to listen and get actual professional help, it's not your fault. Thank you for listening to them
i dont like it when people vent on sky, my 11 year old cousin plays sky, she shouldnt be exposed to that kind of stuff :(
Bruh this is why I dont read shit on those lanterns lol
Broooooo🥺 you are so nice🥺 Found the reason why I subscribed
My riddle is kinda dark but it’s good
Time is a line my name starts with a D at the end of that line that’s where I’ll be who am I
It’s a dark riddle I learned in class but it’s nice
well said !
Thank you
Oh my English is not so good and you talk so fast. I don‘t understand well. But wanna hear exactly what you say. Could you translate it please. Oh unlock if there if is a transcription. You really sound angry. What about? I need to find out
Transcription is very fast too. Jesus, which comments have you read???? But you talk out of your heart. It really impressed me. And this bad habit you can find sometimes at the direct playing 😢 yes, there are toxic human beings around. I didn’t understand everything. But I guess I feel you. And I thank you, that you have brought it out to that point. I try to make photos of the whole transcription that I can translate
❤️ 💙
Respect
I think i might have done that while I was having an episode oh no 🤚😭😭😭😭😭😭
Venting stuff on sky won’t help. Literally.
Why is 70% of the sky fan base suicidal?
A lot of people including me play sky as a form of escapism, for me personally it helps me forget about traumatic things that I think about daily and distracts me from self endangering thoughts because the atmosphere is mostly peaceful and the whole game gives me the feeling of being a child in a beautiful world unlike reality again
Wanna be friends in sky
a bit of context would have been appreciated
Stopped halfway through because you just sound very condescening.
bump
You don't understand if I say to my mum she will feel bad about her self 1:16
someone else, other trusted adults, a counselor, a therapist, a friend
