TweetHope – Help the depressed on Twitter by @EleniHope

Hello Everyone,


Last night, I was getting a bit depressed out of what’s going in the world, my country and my life. So, I posted on Twitter “I’m depressed .. say something uplifting” I have got various responses from people I know on Twitter but got one from someone I don’t know and it wasn’t a POT.

She was EleniHope who after reading her Twitter stream and FormSpring link there, I knew she is a 15 YO girl from Ohio who dedicated her time to searching Twitter for keyword “Depressed” and “I hate my life” and she goes into conversations with people to uplift their spirit and make them feel good again.

Example of such a conversation is here:

Then we got into a conversation:

@EleniHope It’s okay, I’ll join you for an hour or something in picking up on the depressed people, we can start a movement too

@EleniHope Are you on Facebook? we can make a page and a HashTag and group people to uplift the depressed when they have time.

@EleniHope So we can utilize your idea on a larger scale, what do you think?

So, out of that simple gesture Eleni do on Twitter, late last night I started a site to get Tweets with words “Depressed” and “I hate my life” and will get similar words and combine them in a page, for people to get there and pick up a genuine conversation with these individuals and uplift there spirit.

The website is http://TweetHope.us and HashTag #TweetHope should be used to group people around the idea. I started a Facebook page and Twitter page for it, what do you guys think about the ideas and feasibility or expanding its use?

LOST – Depressed Jack

Hi All,

Just stumbled upon this video from Lost, just made me think as most people will get there at some point, Had you been in such position before?

Technically qualified and more than able to do the job, but having a problem in the heart and no one can help! I think I had been there …

Have a nice time

Post-Exam Depression

You know that feeling after getting out of the exam and looking to the exam paper! A mix of feelings, could be summed up in depression I guess! Yet, another video had been made a while ago.

Stay cool!
