Tweet

I can't even imagine how the family must feel, how he must have been feeling when he jumped, this is really sad, I have a 19 year old son we almost lost in 2008 from a brain hemorhage it was so scary. I didn't leave his side. But suicide is different, it's tragic that there isn't better, easier to recieve help and treatment. Dealing with depression is one of the worst things ever, it's like your mind over rides every action, takes over your normal thoughts, it runs your life. You have No control and though you know you need help, there comes a time during the worst part of your depression that you haven't the strengh, or will power to get help. So you try to sleep as much as possible to avoid the sadness, thoughts, everyday misery that cannot be stopped. People just don't have a clue who are not depressed, they might say they do, but unless you've been there, you could never understand what it feels like... That bad thing is ask someones who in a serious depression how they feel and most would just throw out a word like sad, or miserable but that's not even the start, it can't be explained no words can match the hell you feel, we need to find better help, and bring this out in the open, it's real, it's not going away, and so many who you think are ok aren't . They're going through the motions, dragging a body around, that's like a ball and chain, we Need people to acept that this is a real condition, easier to find help , easier to afford, and people to take this very serious !!!
