Everyone has a low point in their life where they feel that they're in the worst possible place.
Most of the time they're not but its only in human nature to think so.
I think that you'll find, when you're depressed even though you don't already know it what you actually want is to be even more depressed.
Strange huh? Even though the most logical thing to do is get rid of that depression, the person will seek more sadness, eventualy some will come to the conclusion that their state is the worst possible. You see the thing about that, is that everyone usually thinks their problems are the biggest when they have them.

On the other hand people people who come to you and contemplate suicide are actually most likely seeking attention and help indirectly. I would say for the bulk of those situations they are not as serious as the ones which are not announced. It also puts you in a slightly tense position if you know this putting you under pressure because you have realized that you now have an indirect responsibility to help.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish with this thread?
Right now it just looks like a rant thread to me.


If you're just going to talk about suicides, then you should have posted it in Doc's thread.


However, if you're trying to discuss our masochistic tendencies of wallowing in self-pity and our desire to complain, make you're post better reflect that.

Nice job at not only making me feel confused, but offended

When a person is clinically depressed, it's sort of hard to lift their head up, and they may seek comfort in their sadness. As far as looking for help, that's supposed to be a sign of a person wanting attention...?


And suicide...
Wait, wait.

Are we talking about actual "depression" or spoiled people that blow their problems up to seem like depression so they can get attention for what ails them?

Or are you stereotyping people that are actually depressed, feel suicidal and desire help?

Or what? =.=;

@mewbright. ahk, just a discusion about people's mentality and a poll to see how many people dont care.
Obviously alot. This is in no way prejudice to anyone! Espeacialy people who have problems, its not a joke and i am not being funny about it ether.

Depression can lead to suicide aswell. Didn't say they had to be.

I generalised alot of things but you seem to have peged me for someone who is prejudicing mentally ill people...Yes it is hard for a depressed person to look up in depression because it is human nature.
I was simply stating the obvious...It's not a bias post.

@toto, Just thought it was interesting and to be honest i posted this in his thread then realized it wasn't relavant, as his asks if its right for suicide, so i made a new thread...does that make sense?

i edited it a bit . It was a copy and paste of something previous so forgive me for the mistakes. *sigh* lazziness.
