Am I going to hell for doing this?

[mickyfu]

I just fire up Facebook and read some posts written by some moron in Wigan. Then I think things could be worse, I could be this morons kid.

Nope you aren't going to hell bud!

We all get motivation from different things, instead of feeling guilty for your actions, It's okay if you join the discussion and share some inspiring story, you may save someone who reads your story from committing suicide and going to hell

Be an Angel to them and remember If you encourages or make someone happy, you will be happy too (best natural cure for depression)

We all have our thing that keeps us going, if thats yours then it works.

cheer up mate! its the first step you take in the process of preparing yourself for the worse that can ever happen. I've been there and right now I'm in a much clear/stable state

Thoughts have influence. You're indirectly compounding their negative energy.
You can think of it as Karma's version of DDoS. Ask the kabbalist.

If you feel that guilty about reading about them. Perhaps try to help them in some way. Post some wholesome comments which might cheer some people up.

I think it is human nature to be thankful things aren't as fucked as some others.
Like the rubberneckers on the motorway, when we see an accident we can't help but stare and thank God that it wasn't us.

When I feel down and not-motivated, I got to Reddit's r/depression subreddit.
Those people are miserable. They go through some fucked up shit every day,

I go there, read some posts. And feel good about me because I'm not miserable as them. That gives me the motivation to get back to work.

Now I kinda enjoy reading them.

Am I evil?

Yes! God will punish you and send you to a fiery pit where you will burn,scream and be in agony for all of eternity BUT..He loves you.

If you're not bothering them or adding to their misery I don't see anything wrong with it.

Are you causing harm? No? Then No.

If it helps you appreciate your own life, all the power to you. If you feel guilty about it, go do something nice for the world, you can't fix those people's problems.

Until you do not harass them, it is fine, I guess.

Nope, just reading. thanks guys

Whatever floats your boat, I guess.

We all have our thing that keeps us going, if thats yours then it works.

What floats your boat my friend?

> implying hell is a real place.

but seriously, no, you're not doing anything wrong.

Nope.

You aren't evil actually i also get motivation buy seeing others struggle be it human or animal.

Nope you aren't going to hell bud!

Thanks guys

Firstly, Lol.

Secondly, I think the fact that you felt the need to ask this question means that that thread has slowly begun to effect you. Maybe you do belong there? Read one too many posts.. lol

I don't think what you're doing is wrong, I personally have this thing where if I'm having a shit week, I'll go out and help one of my friends who's having a shittier week.
I get 2 things out of this,

1. Good Karma - helping a friend in need
2. Something else to focus on - I get to forget about my problem
3. When i see that their problem is much worse, i realize how dumb my problem actually is

Maybe you could implement my method, by just trying to help those depressed people.

Do I belong to that group? LOL..nah man. Those people are medically depressed. Sucidal. Thanks for the suggestions bro.

The spectrum of evil is unique for every person so only you can decide.

I don't get this bruh. Can you explain? So if I am Hitler, and don't feel bad about killing people. I am ok?

I know right. Well, my fb wall is filled with retards jumping on every trend there is. I will get real depressed, if I start to read them. LOL

No man , I don't want to participate in the discussions. They don't take it well there. They have different problems. I am in no place to help them. I don't know what they are going through. But I don't want to be that guy trying to cheer them up without knowing their shit.

No. I listened to a lot of a radio show where people could call in to talk about basically anything interesting. I remember a 19 year old calling that had a disease the doctors couldnt do anything about. Hes in constant pain, can barely move and at some point he will not be able to control his body anymore and just 'exist'. He talked about how he just wants to kill himself while he still can without causing too much hurt to his family.
The host afterwards talked about it a bit more and said that it really puts our problems of our daily life into perspective. He mentioned being annoyed over some little thing but then remembering how awful some people calling him have it.
Well I can really agree with that and I guess its similar to your story.

Comparing oneself to others to feel less depressed is just human nature

Gives you more reason to thank God and stay focused. Hell nah

It just makes you appreciate what you have

Yep, I like to think it as this way.

Karma's a bitch. I'll keep a seat for you in hell with me...

Yes, you're going to hell not for reading their miserable stories but for fapping while you're reading it.

That's what my grandma said.

You are going to HELL

Fasten your seat belts.

Yes! God will punish you and send you to a fiery pit where you will burn,scream and be in agony for all of eternity BUT..He loves you.

Will see you there guys

cheer up mate! its the first step you take in the process of preparing yourself for the worse that can ever happen. I've been there and right now I'm in a much clear/stable state

You finally figured out how to reply. Good for you. thanks man

The definition of evil is the worst act you can imagine right? So yours might be different to mine.

So if this hobby of yours is the worst thing you can imagine anyone doing then you’re evil. If not, then your ok

 

[FreakenSEOsmh]

jokes aside, you shouldn't enjoy reading about other people sadness and misfortunes.

Napoleon's chief diplomat Talleyrand used to say : " Looking at myself saddens me. Comparing myself to others comforts me. "

it's way more eloquent in french.
