Like someone can be suffering but there is always someone else out in the world who is suffering more. Doesn't mean it makes their experience less real to them right? Plus I dont think she said her life is tougher than others or anything outrageous that would make me feel like she is being ungrateful...she's just saying life under a microscope was too much for her which is fair. Doesn't mean she is saying someone who works a 9 to 5 at wal mart is living better than her. But this is the equivalent of, lets say whatever job you personally have. If you were to say you absolutely hate it and it makes you depressed... if I were to hand you $70M and you took the money and still kept your job and complained that it makes you depressed, does that even deserve any sympathy? Charli is in the position that she quickly made enough money to be able to quit (plus she was born rich) 2 1

According to Forbes: Quote The painstaking, full-day shoot of nonstop takes will be sliced and squeezed into eight binge-worthy minutes for the second season of the D'Amelio's Snapchat competition show Charli Versus Dixie. Each D'Amelio sister, by Forbes' estimate, gets paid up to $100,000 per episode. The Connecticut family, with no prior showbiz experience, has attracted windfall endorsement deals with an eclectic group of brands rarely mentioned in the same sentence—Amazon, Hollister, Dunkin, Prada—which happily pay the D'Amelios around $250,000 per post. She is also rumoured to be paid $1M per episode of her Hulu reality show Edited October 30, 2023 by Saintlor

ScorpiosGroove Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 wrdgaf about how these rich people feel
Cruel Summer Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 All I see is a nineteen-year-old girl for just saying she was miserable and experienced suicidal ideation. I’m sorry, but I just can’t bring myself to **** on a person for expressing that. I hope that the privilege that she has in life helps her to a better place, and then leads her to help other people who are less fortunate than her and can’t explore new careers, now that she has some kind of experience with how that feels. Maybe this can turn into something good for others in that way - she certainly has the money to contribute to foundations and charities that can help people in those positions.
americanlife Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 All of these influencers need to just buy mansions in CASH, live there forever and retire.

Studies actually show that - once basic needs like housing are met - rates of depression are consistent across all socioeconomic levels.

Mornings Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 How many celebrities need to commit suicide or overdose to know that everyone is capable of serious mental illnesses. Let the girl be depressed, damn. Stop comparing your miserable lives to her miserable life. 1
imabadkid Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 Eh... I mean, I do think that being an influencer with millions of followers may sound like an easy, laid back job... I think it's much more complicated than that. A lot of them complain of extreme burnout, having to be chronically online, hate comments, etc. I do feel bad for her in the sense she literally got on an app, did a few terrible off beat dances to a few rap songs (and allegedly stole some of the dances from other creators who were never credited) and the next day the entire world cared about who she was, what she said, what she ate, etc. That can't be easy.
dumbsparce Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 She represents everything I hate about gen z. Social media have consumed their entire existences and when they have to face an actual, real life struggle they completely black out and are left with nothing but misery, depression and everything that comes with it.

How is that "Gen Z's" problem? It's not just them that are miserable and depressed. They did not invent the set of rules they have to abide by. It's such a lazy cop out to blame people living in conditions they had no say over that they're the problem and not the ones who had an actual hand in creating that same framework.

Was just talking about her. and what i'm saying is if a person lives in a specific ambient doesn't mean can say "oh i'm depressed but i can be depressed anymore cause....." 17k words about how it's wrong for her to be depressed when in the world.... this is what i mean with depression doesn't work with politically correctness and you can't say "oh i'm more lucky than this my friend, it's unfair to me to be depressed so from tomorrow stop being depressed!" ... there is really a need to explain this?

PoisonPill Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 It’s almost as if having money doesnt make a teenager immune from mental health struggles (and often exacerbated it). The tone deaf statement is this thread.
Assassin Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 does op even know what a "statement" is? Because this isn't one, she's just talking about her mental health on a podcast and has nothing to do with the walmart photo.

Something in your brain must not clicking indeed because you did not understand anything from my post. My point (again) is that ''Gen Z'' did not have a hand in creating the conditions they have to live in. They are living in the world that was created by other generations. Gen Z did not invent social media or phones, that's simply the world they were thrown into. Again, you are doing the very same thing I am sure you at one point complained Boomers did when they dragged (and some still do) Millenials and even Gen Z as well for being ''lazy'' and ''too sensitive''. Stop it. That is a reductive cop out that leads us nowhere and only reinforces the harmful power structures we all suffer from. 1 1
