I know what you mean toe. I was suicidally depressed for about 20 years and I really got tired of listening to every know-it-all say "snap out of it" or "go out and find something to do." A few of them have no idea how lucky they are to be alive.



What helped you get over your depression? Was it time? Counseling? Drugs?

I never said you should just get over it. I'm trying to say that suicide is unimaginative and a easy way out of your situation. You didn't commit suicide... are you happy you didn't? Or do you think your problems would have been solved a lot quicker by painting the wall with your brain. Suicide is a bitch way out not only because you never find a resolution to the issue you had, you also hurt the lives of others around you. Therefor making you life's bitch. Get out easy and everyone else pays the price.



Got over it with Prozac. A lot of depressed people are that way only because their neurons don't fire properly. There's no imaginative solution our of that sort of situation. If there hadn't been Prozac I probably wouldn't be typing this right now.

As far as being happy about not offing myself, I don't think it really matters. I'm not depressed, but all my formative years were spent immersed in depression so I didn't really develop properly, emotionally, socially, or psychologically.

In my case, there was not only person who reached out their hand to help, at least not in any meaningful way. My parents are useless, so I really would have no compunction about hurting them. They are non-entities.
