>>36440123See anon the thing about depression of the kind Kronii has is twofold. It make no sense and it’s unwarranted by circumstances. And you are aware of that fact, which exacerbates it.
If you were born with no legs or Downs or lost your whole family in a car crash, depression makes sense. If your life is basically fine, and you know it’s fine, but you still feel like a person who lost their family in a car crash or you have no legs, that’s its own special hell. I can always detect my own, and Kronii is in this same boat for sure. She is depressed, unreasonably so, and the awareness that it’s unreasonable just makes it worse. Sometimes (rarely) you will think about how others have much more objectively worse circumstances and that might perk you up a bit because hey, your situation isn’t that bad and there’s a lot going for you. But usually, knowing you’re miserable for no valid reason just feels like shit and people often fall all over themselves to point out how you have no reason to feel like you do. And how sympathetic do you think her Korean immigrant parents are to this mindset? On top of that you have to add the whole Hololive career, which is the biggest, most fucked up wildcard imaginable…unique, new territory vor himanity and impossible to even grasp for experts…but what I can tell you is what effect fame and sudden success in general have had on miserable people. And never once has it been good.
I won’t lie, Kronii’s shithead moves around the make collabs thing really tested my patience and made me lose some respect for her for a while there. Like many of us I don’t gaf about males. It was her dickhead attitude and shitting on her fans that bothered me. But I chose to let it go and try to enjoy her and be understanding. She is my oshi in the true OG sense: not just a favorite but the one I root for and hope to see grow and overcome problems and succeed. This summer was a big backslide and disappointing. But I still root for Kronii and hope she gets better (which doesn’t mean perfect).
