Next time we get on chat we have to talk together for real, okay?

Hey hey guys, maybe we can chat fr today?

Didn't see the need to since Echo hasn't been on

Well, there it is lol

-Galaxian-

Hmm, well, the logic doesn't hold up. "We can chat fr today" on a group chat with 3 people implies all three people have to be there, but Echo's not here, so therefore we can't chat today

Well, ig I'll also note, I'll try not to come on when it's only me. Upon reflection I don't have the right to do that, so I don't want to make big exceptions for it

Lol I have something to say but I have no idea how to say it while being both assertive and unoffensive
What I get for being an INFJ but turbulent lol

Okay, so I might sound a bit annoyed while typing this. I'm not actually annoyed at the moment; it's just that I do get annoyed when you say things like "Now that I've said [actually important things] I understand if you don't want to talk to me anymore" and "I think you are only being my friend out of pity for me" I do get annoyed, and when I thought about this it was while I was brain-dead at 3 A.M., so yeah, not exactly the most emotionally neutral time of the day to think about what I'm going to say now.
Now, obviously, what I'm going to say is relating to the above sort of dialogue. I'm not going to really beat around the bush now, I'm just going to say it. So, it's pretty clear that you rely on friends for mental support. And that's great! Though, it would be better if you also sought more professional help, since friends can't always cut it and, in my opinion, can't cut it in the long term. But that's besides the current point. Anyways, since you rely on friends for that support, one would think that you trust us and see us as true friends, right? But when you voice doubts like those, it seems like you don't really trust us.
And one would think (or at I think) that maybe that means you don't understand what true friendship is and am just compensating for the lack of truth in the friendship you have with Specter and me, but that's plainly not true due to other evidence I see. One, I've judged you to be pretty sensible regarding who's a good friend and who's a bad friend, and you take pretty quick action when a friend is quite plainly bad. Two, most importantly, you seem to understand pretty clearly what actual friendships look like because you sure do construct a lot of them within your characters. So the problem? Talking about Specter and me and not just me, seems like the problem isn't us being terrible friends and instead just your depression making you say dumb things. (As for me, I'm not quite competent as a friend, as this entire message is showing, but I'll wait for you to get much better mental health so that you can throw me away like the trash I am.)
So what's the actual point? Well, like I said, if it's just depression making you think irrational things like thinking Specter and I (or anyone else on the forums) are liars and lie to you "out of pity", et cetera, then it should help if you have ways to counter it, right? Of course, the following is presuming that you do actually think of us as actual friends in your subconscious and don't actually think the same way as the darker(?) parts of your mind do, but here's a solid way to counter it, in my opinion. First, think a little positively. This is probably the most important part. Consider us actual friends. Don't think of us as liars. (I do remember saying I don't like being thought of as a liar, right? Though, I guess I doubt anyone likes to be thought of as a liar.) Remember we genuinely care for you, even if I suck at showing it or transmitting it to you ever. (By the way, don't think of the latter part of the sentence, please. Save that for later when you reasonably dump me.) And then think of your characters. Imagine GGaD!Echo with her memories ranting out all of her problems. Would Alma just never talk to her again because she's depressed? If he would, then that's not a true friendship, either, and I sure do dislike him a lot more if that's the case. But I'm guessing he definitely wouldn't. Alma's probably better at being a friend than either of us, but not abandoning someone is literally a base standard for friendship. No matter whether it's Alma or real life Specter or real life me, if we do that, then we didn't deserve to be your friend in the first place. So think of the true friendships your characters have, and please, if you do consider us to be close at all, don't think of us as people who'll do things that your characters in those genuinely nice relationships won't do.
