Suicide

[Gren the cake]

yeh, i would sya a bulk of depressed people can fix on their own but there certainly ARE those cases whre they are just so warped.......

heres an example. all my cop classes are taught by cops, many retired but some are working. these are some of the goofiest guys ive ever met, always laughin, crackin jokes. very caring about all of us, wanting to talk to us, giving us the low down on everything etc etc

now think about it. all the crap they see, murder, rape, crimes upon children etc etc.... but do they go off and kill themselves? get stuck in a rut, get depressed and never want to go out? think 'life is such a shithole'

sure. there will be exemptions but for the most part, no. why? becuz this isnt heaven, this is real. there is always going to be both sides, the good and the bad. take 1 shithead, kills an innocent child. it sucks, but theres mor important things to do than bitkch and complain. u go out there, talk to people, find ou who did it. and during all this, people will come out with information, support, love... theres both sides to EVERYTHING. u just hafto look at things from all ways

just like th tsunami. yeh it sucks, 150,000+ lost, but thats the way the world works. before humans were here, tsunamis happene and their gonna continue. itsa part of life, but u move on, u do all u can, u learn from it, and importantly, CHERISH all you have, all that is around you (namely, each other)

Exactly! And like Urg said that can be due to a chemical imbalance, so they are not really going to realise the good in their life if your brain is telling you that everything is bad\wrong.

It's hard to realize the good in your life (I mean REALLY sit down and realize it) until there is some kind of tragedy like 9-11. But even then, we all go back to being self-centered, brooding bastards after a while...lol.

Very true.

I think society sets us up to concentrate on the bad. Take the news. You will have around 25 minutes of deaths that happened, how many car accidents there were, who got raped etc. Then at the end (if you are lucky) they may have a 3 minute story on something good\positive.

I have never watched, and do not watch the news. Some people think I am being shallow, or I don't care about my world, etc.

FUCK 'EM!

If it means missing out on an hour worth of doom and gloom, then yes...I am a shallow, selfish mother fucker!

Doom and gloom in entertainment is one thing. Real life sucks. :(

We actually sound very similar! I am exactly the same with the news... don't watch it.

I didn't even know about the Tsunami until I went to work the next day and someone else told me.

If it is important enough I will find out about it eventually.

That's EXACTLY my attitude.

And because of that...I always get caught in those stupid awkward moments when someone says, "Did you hear about such and such?" And then they act all surprised when I say no.

I'm like you. If it's all that fucking newsworthy, someone who needs to be in the know constantly will fill me in.

I also rely on everyone else to give me the time too...cause I have never worn watches. :D

Everybody serves a purpose in life...lol.

yep. its very interesting when j. lo get married again but leonardo dicaprio going to Sri lanka about the tsunamis?

well not the greatest example but hey dirt on people is much more interesting than the ogod stuff

same about the news. i mean big things like 9/11 yeh yeh but sometimes they just go too far. the way things r u'd thnk violence is on the rise when really its just the opposite.
