you don't choose to go that way. it juss happens. emo people are emo because something tragic happened in their life, ex: a relative dead that they were very close to, they lost their home, they are/were abused. many things can turn a person emo. the reason emo people cut their wrists is because they feel nothing anymore and by cutting their wrists they finally feel an something, pain and if that's all they can get then that's fine with them. if that's not how someone you know who is 'emo' then they are juss a posur. and not a true emo kid.
Answer:
Well not exactly ^_^ Many people choose to be emo because some people follow the trends and others just have something depressing going on in there life. I find most 'emos' and 'scenes' to be posers. I go by being myself. And they choose being depressed because that what makes them 'emo' or whatever they feel like they have pain in there life. I admit I was 'emo' at 13 (I just turned 15) and I was for no reason because the guy I liked, excuse me loved wanted someone else besides me and I felt dead inside and I wanted to run away and bleed. (Yea dark). But the point being is some choose some don't.
there are no specific things you have to do to be emo but emo is short for emotional so emo people are either super depressed, angry, or confused sometimes emo people cut themselves. but not all emo people do.
Not necessarily. Depression can affect anyone, regardless of their style or interests. Emo is a subculture associated with themes of emotional expression, but not all individuals who identify as emo experience depression.
Emo, probably because they more funner and they're crazy. for example, I'm emo and I'm always hyper and i do the most randomest stuff.(: -uhm , neither ? why would you want to be emo & cut yourself & be all depressed , that's the real definition of emo & gothic - why would you want to dress in black all the time & have people be scared of you by the way you dress . brighten up a little bitt .
Emo's don't tell other people that they are emo because that leads to thinking that they are a poser or being a attention seeker. The way we act is depressed, moody, sighing, whineing, silent, self thinking and do not care for what people think of them or what they do.
Emo people's academic performance can vary like anyone else's. Emo is a style of music and fashion, not necessarily an indicator of academic success. People of all subcultures can excel academically or struggle.
if you are emo you are highly depressed.
No. Different people have different types of tastes in music. You might LISTEN to goth or emo music but that doesn't make you one. For example, a perfectly good person who gets good grades, is in extra ciricular activities, does service, and is depressed doesn't make them emo. You would be surprised at how many people are depressed but aren't gothic or emo. They just choose to listen to those types of music because it helps them.
A true emo is someone who is depressed because of something.
Not necesarly, emo kids are not always depressed their just very senitive when it comes to emotions, and insted of getting angry or mad they get sad and depressed.
Depression has been the name in common parlance for the disorder for over a century, while the 'Emo" subculture is an entirely recent phenomenon. Technically "Emo" is short for emotional, so that "Emo" person is just an emotional person, not necessarily a depressed person. Those who are depressed suffer from an active and acute mental illness, and an "Emo" person is just, as I said, emotional. Moreover, depressed people are overwhelmingly adults, with the average age of onset of a first Major Depressive episode occurring in the 30's. Though depression in adolescence is possible, it is relatively rare.
I believe it is an emo version of a twitter post such as: "Im felling very depressed"
An EMO is a depressed person who perfers black and other dark colours and rock. But that is just a stereotype
you can't really choose to be emo if that's why you want to know i wouldn't say that you want to be emo. its really hard. people hate emo people for no reason honestly it may seem cool, but if you can't handle being emotional, don't be emo emo people are angry, confused, or depressed. but if you are emo. be emo and proud make sure you have friends to back you up its not only how you feel but how you dress and the music you listen to
no you aren't cuz "feeling emo" isn't a feeling.Emo is just a fashion. Its not an emotion, even though emo is short for emotional, its just a steriotype in todays society.If you are not emo but you feel depressed it is the same thing as saying... "i'm not a tree, but i like leaves" See you dont have to be a tree to like leaves, so you don't need to be emo to be depressed!!!hope this helped... (And not ALL emos are suicidal, it's just the idiots who drive them to it...)
since emo means- depressed people cutting them self's for a various of reasons yes emo can be led to sicdecca. mostly they have a reason
Emo is a emotional action that which you are depressed or have these weird moods and you may express them in some ways of your life.
Honey emo is if you hurt yourself.. I get depressed easily but you are probably at an age where you have a lot of emotions...I cut and I'm emo but I think you are unique or maybe scene...
