Suicide IS a can o' worms -- for those left behind.
I have free Hulu, and I was watching the 3 available episodes of The Biggest Loser, and their tales of woe are so very sad, especially the lady whose husband came back from a handful of tours in Afghanistan, and suffered PTSD...wound up committing suicide one day at work on his lunch hour by jumping into a very large trash compactor. And I thought my problems were bad....dearr gawd. I c-r-i-e-d!
I think now, after going through this big operation and stuff, I'm trying to UNLOAD my aims n goals, tbh. Simplify, grrrl, heh.

of course---the less goals the better...it is all ´´ego´´ nevertheless, we´re stuck here in a body--or is it a corpse- and it is the quality of goals that decides the quality of your life..nobody escapes this goal thing...so better get some good ones...´´choose an aim high and disinterested´´ Mira Alfassa said
i see this in relation to my expose on the advaita couple--else you may end up doing what the body wants...or desire...and we´ve seen where that leads us...
PS the ones left behind are the most pathetic...all feeling so sorry---for themselves mainly---i have little extra sympathy for them...just the same as everybody

Sounds like a bag over the head. Yeah it's everywhere now - saw it on AOL news. Sheesh! It's like, how many times does it get proven that money and fame don't buy 'happiness' or contentedness or ______.

For me, it seems very personal... I loved his person-ality so much so, that when I was pregnant, I spent a lot of time at work writing down all the different names I might give my kid -- if I had a girl, I was going to name her Robyn....Robyn Lindsey. When my son was little, the movie Aladdin was new and I...we watched it over and over. As you probably know, he did the genie's voice. When my son was a teen, he loved the movie What Dreams May Come....one of my faves was Patch Adams.

When my son was a teen, he loved the movie What Dreams May Come....one of my faves was Patch Adams. Yea.........tragic..........he must have just gotten tired of fighting the depression. I can't remember if I wrote about it here or not, my oldest daughter's best friend killed herself in January this year. They had been best friends for years. I was actually in Oak Harbor, Washington visiting her at the time, my daughter and her family. Aaron went back to Charlotte, NC for the funeral, was gone about 5 days. I had known Diana, had been around her when she was around with Aaron. She was so full of life and seemed so happy when I saw her, maybe a couple of hours at a time many months or years apart. And when Aaron came back home I learned about the real Diana. It was not unexpected that Diana killed herself, in fact Aaron was expecting it. Diana had been depressed for years, had seen doctors and had been off and on medication for years. Diana had stopped her medication. The happy Diana I knew was Diana on medication. And I wanted to say Aaron!!!! why didn't you ever tell me about Diana?!?! I could have been her friend, maybe I could have helped her get by.......But I couldn't have said that. I've talked to my younger daughter about my past depressed self, because she is her father's daughter. But I guess Aaron doesn't know....about.....past me.....ex-suicide....so that's my fault....... Diana had researched plastic bag over the head. She had moved back in with her mother for financial reasons, her mother found her.....checking why she didn't go to work........ sdp

I'm so very sorry and sad to hear about your daughter's friend.
Doctors seem to pretend they care, but they aren't care-ful with the meds and ignore the signs and turn the other way when they know dam.ned good and well that their patients have become hooked and going through withdrawals. I shared about this just before all my medical problems went into full swing. From all I've experienced, seen, and read about, docs don't seem to give a rats as.s.
