Desire: For Humanity to Grow the Fuck Up and Quit Taking the Easy Way Out

I understand that Depression is a wide spread problem, believe me I understand. I, myself, am a non-medicated Major Manic Depressive. I have struggled with depression my entire life and am not adverse to having thoughts that I dare not share......but I always SUCK IT UP and move forward.

Maybe I am insensitive, but I can not for the life of me understand how anyone could actually kill themselves. How can you allow yourself to loose control so badly that killing yourself is the only option you can take. There are way too many resources available to ever let things get that bad. Hell, do what I do and just go up to a Random Stranger and vent when you need to talk. Even if they don't respond, just saying how you feel will help.

What bothers me even more is when celebrities and filthy rich people like Robin Williams commit suicide. They have far better lives than 99.99% of people on this planet who never even consider killing themselves. Not to mention they always have tons of people around (in their lives) to talk to and near unlimited financial ability to get the help and treatment they need. Upon hearing that Robin Williams hung himself today I steam rolled right over sorrow and dove head first into ANGER. Anger that such a Gifted, Loved, Hilarious and Rich person could be so chicken shit as to take their own life.

So from the bottom of my heart I beg ANYONE CONSIDERING SUICIDE please please please get some help.
