this may be my first intelligent post in 2000 odd, but here goes...
The thing most people don't understand is what being depressed actually is, it's not just when ur team loses the match or you see someone in the same outfit (girls there) There comes a point when everything gets to you, the hardest thing is not admitting it, but doing something about it. I suffer from serious seasonal deffective syndrome, and it can make me feel so low in winter, and it's not something one sunny day can fix, it's sadly something you live with. If you haven't been through it, theres no point trying to understand fully, cos you never will until it happens.
When ur depressed things get to you, maybe you become more agitated, irritable, unpredictable, but one thing does happen, and that is that you don't think rationally. You can tend after a while to see things in a bad way, and never see the good thing of stuff, I know, i'm there, people who wanna take the piss don't know anything, and should be shot to be honest.
Suicide is something that people turn to, as a way out of the routine, it is irrational yes, but you don't think like that, You get yelled at everyday for years, maybe people put you down, bully you, take the piss cos u don't fit in with the crowd, either way, it does affect you to a certain extent, and it's a choice.
With how shit my life is, I've had many times when I've considered it, but I've never had the guts to go through with it, and tbh without the support of certain TAs who know who they are, I probably wouldn't be here now, I don't see much else to live for, but when sum1 believes in you, it makes things a lot easier.
Personally, as sum1 whos been depressed for 7 years, Kai Tracid appeals to me, mainly cos of the lyrics which all mean something, like the following....
For just one day
I wanna break all regulations,
Because we all go the same way,
and we all pass the same stations.
For just one day
I wanna feel totally free,
no responsibilities, just everything is okay.
No desires, just surviving is the key.
For just one day
I wanna ignore our senseless fate,
Colours are victorious over the grey,
stop to get controlled by the state.
For just one day
I wanna forget the value of money and gold,
I wanna live life my way,
and loose my inhibition threshold.
One called Suicide
Have you ever thougt about committing suicide?
Leaving the world behind?
The sorrow, the pain and the fear
Of the unknown future
delivering from any human needs and pressure
in just one second
your cry for help is lost in this lonely world
in which you are completely alone
nobody helps you when you`re feeling down
and the loneliness is breaking your heart
it would be so simple to go down
the stairs of the final way
but the fear of the unknown world beyond,
of having nothing, of being nothing
keeps you on your designated way
and takes away your longing for self-destruction
that is why
you will never commit suicide
Too many times you have been high
Too many times you ran away, no need to cry
Too many times your body lies awake
Too many times these pills you take
Too many times you've woken up depressed
Too many times you put your life to the test
Too many times you've taken this trip
Too many times you have slipped
Too many times your body can't take
Too many times you've made a mistake
Too many times you haven't realized
Too many times your mind became paralyzed
Now whatever you make think to the music, words like that reach out, cos they verge on understanding, or describe situations that I'm used to, it's shit having to get up, remember to take 3 pills a day & barely manage to get about, hurting to do anything normal.
So Next time you see sum1 whos suicidal, don't think about laughing, there's no point, and if you push them over the edge, and believe me, if I was egged on in a reverse way, by sum1 laughing at me, daring me to do it, i'd probably do it, think before you say something, cos you don't need to understand their personal circumstances to get that they're low.
