Okay, a question. I have gotten on reddit to learn about mental disorders and illnesses for my fanfics, because I do not want to give out false information. I wrote how I was a young writer who wanted to know about mental disorders and I heard somewhere that asking real people could give you insight and information (I know they're not professionals, I just wanted to know how they feel)and also wrote about my fanfic 'dead inside' (Just what it was about so people could get better insight, I did not give out the name or anything) and even added that people could say if I was being insensitive and that I did not want to hurt anyone.
After I posted that someone wrote ' I'm not depressed but way to put idea's in people's head'. I do not know if this comment was meant nice or badly, but to me it feels bad... Can someone tell me if I was being insensitive? All I wanted to know was how people suffer from depression, not to give them one. And I don't think explaining my fic would give people depression or something.
And yes, I am searching on sites, on Google Scholar, I have different subjects I'm trying to learn about.
