Still thinking lmao. Ultimately I do think it's a good song. I'm not a huuuge fan of the presentation in terms of like... almost taking it lightly, but it does do a good job of expressing the experience of being isolated in your problems because not even the people meant to help you will do anything, and how much of a toll it can take on you when you end up having to console people for simply hearing about your lived experiences when it should be you being comforted for having actually gone through them.
I think it could be read as dismissive or saneist (??? If that's the right word?? Like looking down on people with more severe/stigmatized mental illnesses), but I don't think that's actively what it's doing and ultimately it's a guy expressing his own experiences through his art and it's resonating with My own experiences so. It is what it is
