Hate My Life

[LimpyLionel]

Wanna die

[ivor4781]

it makes you think though boxtops and yes I'VE been there and had the privilege of a visit to a kids hospice.
your not thinking the same after seeing wonderful cheeri kids on the last stages of their life

[ivor4781]

yet again my answer removed by AB
theses were not abusive "at all" but seems there's a strict censorship here no free speech

Of course it makes you think Ivor and in mild cases may be helpful but when you get deep into the darkness (as you say you know) - no light can break through.

ivor4781 - "...your not thinking the same after seeing wonderful cheeri kids on the last stages of their life"

Again, your point is not valid because a Depression sufferer is unable to externalise appreciation of the suffering of others, so your idea would be pointless.

A Depression sufferer could have his or her family executed in front of them and not blink, such is the vicious grip of this terrible condition.

I used to work in a hospice, ivor, I was there six years - it changed the way I look at the world, but that was a long time after my depressive days so I could see the world more clearly. It taught me to get on with life - you never know what's round the corner.

However - that doesn't help lionel, in his current misery. I hope he's reading, and will talk to the Samaritans.

ok ill stand that.btw do we know the medical condition of the guy who posted the text in the first place?

[Mamyalynne]

I'm not sure they should have been removed either - a variety of views leads to a wider discussion.

ivor - "yet again my answer removed by AB

I cannot comment directly because I have not seen your deleted posts.

But 'free speech' does not entitle you to shout 'Fire!' in a crowded theatre - maybe your comments are abrasive and not helpful to the poster?

[Mamyalynne]

I don't think we do Ivor, so let's just hope he has sought some help since he posted.

[ivor4781]

so we all presume hes got "clinical" depression ? and not just making a light coment what we all sometimes feel

WE don't want to lose you Lionel. Please let us all help you if we can. We'll certainly listen to all you have to say and we won't judge. We will always try to help you as much as we can. xx

[Mamyalynne]

I didn't presume, my first answer was to talk to someone or ring the Samaritans - the only person who knows how Lionel really feels is Lionel.

[ivor4781]

right thanks for that, ive never seen this guys text before,
and yes can see his predicament,

[boxtops]

Lionel's been around a while, if you look at his profile - the post identified by jo showed his despair 18 months ago. We don't know, only he can say what's brought him to this further low point.

Why? Do you have a family?
Are you in Debt?
Do you have friends?
Are you a heavy Drinker?
Do you do drugs?

Just think about the people around you Limpy, is it fair to say these things?
Have a word with your G.P.
Drink will only help you when you are Drunk, but the problem will still be there when you are sober,

If in Debt, seek help.

Drugs, there is only one winner, A lot of us get *** days, but the good day over shadow the bad days, Think about it.
