Your attitude is disingenuous, harmful and incredibly ignorant.

I'm shocked Adam is writing that. Her mental health state might be high now and it was a cry for help.

Hoping she finds happiness, because she brings a hell of a lot of it to music.

When people make a big production about their attempted suicide, they're hardly ever the ones who actually die because everyone reacts like much of this thread. And they end up in hospital with all the attention they desire. Those who make a success of it tend to be the ones who just do it. In my experience, depression doesn't mean you're likely to put on a show.

Any idea how many people in the world actually died this week? In all kinds of horrible, degrading circumstances. That's what ****in sad.

[Scoot]

Did she call an ambulance? No. She posted on the Internet. Forgive me if I don't subscribe to the hysteria.

If someone’s that mentally ill that she’s even thinking about killing themself they can’t be expected to be thinking about how to stop themselves rationally.

From MY personal experience, since you seem to be calling her an attention seeker based on yours, someone saying they’re going to kill themselves is more of a subconscious call for help. They’ve normalised the action in their mind so announcing it is a non event.

[Scoot]

It’s also entirely possible that calling for help in more conventional ways hasn’t worked in the past.

Suicide attempts: one size fits all or you’re a faker

Christ what an awful and heartless mindset

[LeatherTrumpet]

I think its true that people who want to commit suicide dont actually want to die per se but dont want to live with the life they have now and do not see how they can in any way change it?

I think that's the case which is just so sad. Especially those who suffer with depression. The only way I can relate to that is sometimes I feel "depressed" (not that I suffer with depression, just have days I feel really down for no particular reason), what always helps me through days like that is knowing I'll probably wake up tomorrow feeling fine, I can't begin to imagine what life must be like for people who don't have that comfort, who think they may feel like that way for the rest of their lives

As I said to Adam, who also spoke in utter ignorance on this matter, people react to suicidal tendencies in different ways, some reach out and others don't. What we don't need is people like you who call people reaching out in whatever ways they can attention seekers. We should encourage people to come forward in whatever ways they can because garnering the world's attention is a better option than dying in silence.

Posts and attitudes like yours are just plain dangerous and way more hazardous to prevention than anything else.

isnt it the case that they have non firing electrics in a part of the brain that would allow them to see that there will be better days?

I don't know, is that right? Is that a new study on depression and if so, is it one that could help cure or treat depression more effectively?

How come everyone who disagrees with your is suffering from utter ignorance? I mean, are we ever going to hit a subject where you don't know best?

Posts and attitudes like yours mean that people who are genuinely so depressed they want to take their own life are put on an equal footing with people shrieking for help and attention of social media.

Generally, people who tell everyone they're going to kill themselves are the ones who are reached and treated in time to save them. Because they've told everyone and caused a big hoo ha. I'm more worried about people suffering from depression who withdraw.

Is it such a problem to worry about both?

[Scoot]

So basically we shouldn’t give a toss about people who call out for help? What a ****ed mindset
