For those who can simplify clinical depression's solution to "get off the couch" or "man up" or "it's Darwinism", heed my quote: "Ignorance is bliss".

I suspect many have never even taken Psych 101, hence the premise for their opinion cannot be taken seriously.

Lets see, whos the owns who are really owned at the end of the day?
Me, who drives home with a smile, or some kid who cant even get off the couch without breaking out in tears.... ;)

Wow. I hope your kids are from the milkman.


Let's see who owns and who are really owned?

Did you just say that Specop?

I feel sorry for your wife.

Surely if you have kids (I hope to God you don't) and you come home to his tiny redneck brains blown all over your kitchen walls and you or your wife finds him, it'll jest be smaller bills to pay in the long run eh?

I really, really, feel sorry for your wife. Honestly, I do. I've actually thought about this before, but chose to hold my tounge for obvious reasons.

After careful analysis of your posts Specop, you are an ignorant and unrightfully so arrogant dirtbag.

I can probably have a more intellectually stimulating conversation with a Pitbull.

I missed the suicide thread, but I try to miss that stuff on purpose these days, theres just too many posts like that on atot for its own good. You can only masquerade yourself as a giant aa meeting for so long before people get sick of making a sad face and apologizing for the world.

I am sick of the crappy remarks in all the threads but doing it one where they are talking suicide is just wrong. Not only that I wonder what kind of legal stuff could come of it if the parents found his thread calling for help with alot of people telling the person to shoot himself, you suck, end it now, and that puts he/she over the edge and does it.

I am sure the lawyers would have a field day and I can see not only alot of people getting sued for the MURDER of thier child but Anandtech as well for allowing people to reply in that fashion and not do anything about it to stop it.

I mean telling someone to off themseves in the thread is no different then being there on the spot loading the gun for that person and handing it to them. He/she may be sitting at the computer with the loaded gun asking anyone to tell them why they shouldnt and all they get is a bunch of asshats saying to do it. I have tried to off myself off and if I didnt get the support I needed I wouldnt be here. I can tell you if I did make a thread and had this happen to me telling me I am sh!t to off myself I would of done it.

So please people, kiddies with nothing better to do then make yourself feel better by putting others down, if you have nothing nice to say then dont say anything at all. An moderators I would look into the legality of what may happen to the site if someone does come here saying they want to end it all and you allow people like this to say the things they said and the person kills themselves. May want to crack down on some of these and make this an even nicer place to hang out without fear of being put down for someone elses low self worth.

Now asshats you can start to make fun of my grammer or english so you can feel better about yourseves.

Depression is a serious mental illness that not only effects the person but everyone around them that loves them. How would you like it if you mom, grandmother, brother, sister, gf, whoever, was suicidal and there was nothing you could do for them? How would you like it if people told them over and over how much they sucked and told them to kill themselves?

Sometimes, suicide is a cry for attention, but it is almost never because "mommy and daddy wouldn't buy me a car", a serious suicide attempt is a cry for help in a world where life seems so terrible and hopeless that a person could choose not to exist.

This is not the first time I have read comments like this here. People "advising" others to ignore suicidal people (instead of calling the police or trying to get them help), people telling others to just kill themselves when they make a post describing how hopeless life is.

I know this forum is made up with little boys who don't know better or are trying to look cool but I am sickened by the attitude some here take towards suicide.

Well said.

This is about the level of idiocy that you've presented to this thread regarding your knowledge, and experience with respect to clinical depression. You should be up for owned of the year award by the time this is done.

You realize Mosh's link supports what I'm saying right?
Let me put this simply. There is no organism on earth that will for no reason whatsoever end its own life. Just doesnt happen, it defies the very point of life.
The human body is an amazingly complex and sensitive machine. But, at the most basic level it IS just a machine, if an organic one. Much like a car, it gives warning signs if something is wrong.
If your car begins to overheat do you just ignore it and keep driving? No. If your low fuel light comes on do you say "Oh its nothing!" and keep going? Of course not.
Well, Mosh's link states (very clearly I might add) that they dont know what causes depression.
Now heres the kicker. I'm going to single handedly solve the issue of depression, if your willing to listen with an open mind.
Depression is a sign something in your environment is wrong. Its your body's oil light so to speak. Proof? People in "gloomy" states suffer more cases or depression then in "happy" states. Such as Oregon, where theres not as much sunlight. Or Alaska, again because of the lack of sunlight.
Well, that outside stimulus is negatively affecting your body and the first warning signs are depression. But, most people have been spoon fed this medical PC correct horsesh1t that "Its not your fault, its a medical condition! Take a pill, we can fix you!"
To HELL with that I say! YOU can solve your depression. You dont need doctors, you dont need drugs. You need to do a Corona and "Change your lattitude". Find out whats causing your depression and CHANGE IT. No, it wont be easy, no it wont happen overnight. But, rather then man up and try to find what in yoru environment is causing depression people buy into this medical horsesh1t of "Its not your fault, its a medical condition".
Well, of COURSE its a medical condition. Its a medical condition of a chemical imbalance caused by an outside stimulus. Simple as that!
Maybe these depressed people need to move. Maybe they need to start an exercise program. Maybe they need to eat healthy. Hell, maybe they just need a bigger TV! Who knows? But the point is, it IS within your OWN hands to deal with your depression and overcome it! You DONT need drugs, you DONT need doctors. You just need to grow some balls, man up and say "Something is causing me unhappiness" and make some changes!!

Its that simple. You can be a victim and hide behind drugs, or you can work to make yoruself a better man (Or woman) and strike at the root of the problem and change your life. A change which most likely will be for the better, since your body is already giving you warnings signs that something isnt right in your environment.

Own that bitch.

Wow, I knew you were heartless, and I am OK with that, but I didn't realize how stupid you are until I read this.

Now, forgive me, but where did you do your research for your doctorate in biology? Master? BS? Well, some kind of bs for sure. You don't know a damn thing about what you are talking about. You don't have the condition. You are the Benny Hinn of physicians. I wonder if you will beat you wife if she gets cancer and doesn't get tough an tell it to get out of her body. Doesn't need a pill or anything.

Damn, you can have an opinion on something, but don't invent horseshit science to back it up. Your post was tragically comic.

Just scanning after my post, which I made without reading any but the first in the thread.
Not gonna happen. I man up and face my problems, not get all depressed and try to off myself.

Either way, we're just gonna have to agree to disagree. I've made my opinion clear on what I think of these new fad "ailments" we see in society today.
I KNEW somebody would have said people need to man up! Brilliant!

Anyway, Specop reading your last post you're simply ignorant about depression. Environment has an effect on it, but it's not necessarily all of the effect.

Your stance on it is typical of somebody who's not had it. Even if you think you've been "sad", you've not had the kind of depression where you're literally day dreaming about jumping off a bridge. Until you've been there, or you're open to communication from people who have, you'll continue to not understand this illness. Hopefully your children will never have a problem like this, because it sounds like you'll be terribly bad at helping them through it. "Buck up, son!"

Wow.

You're such a fvcking joke.

The general consesus here in ATOT is... you're an idiot.

Get the fvck out of here with your "if you can keep an open mind" bullsh!t. I can't believe you just said that. Of all people in ATOT, Specop just told us to keep an open mind.

I'm going to go watch deliverance and see if I can spot your mom!

ahhhhhyyyuck!

Its not that I'm heartless. Its that the compassion I had has been covered up by anger and sadness at what drugs to do people. They dont make you "noemal", those damned anti depressants / anti anxeity drugs make you a freaking pill popping chemically driven automation in society. They steal the rare bloom of life and make you a always happy
smiling drug. Its disgusting, and its sad people buy into it.

So, my post is comical eh? Why? Because your taking current medical theories as the absoulte law? Well fella, 500 years ago they knew the world was flat. Come to find out it isnt. So, how do you KNOW what I said is false?
How about this. Prove me wrong. Find a medical document proving that depression is 100% indepedent of any outside stimulus, that it is 100% outside of the hands of the individual to cope with it and resolve the issue.
Of course, remeber that current theories are only assumed correct in the sense they havent been proven wrong by another. Which means what we KNOW today is most likely going to be looked at as utterly foolish in 100 years.

But regardless, humor me. You think that depression is 100% isolated, that outside stimulus have NO effect and the afected individual has NO way of dealing with it without medical drugs. So, find a medical research paper to support your claims.

I considered suicide for a while. It was scary because there was such a huge internal conflict within myself. My geeky side started running through the illogical aspects of it all, yet my emotional side kept crying about how much life sucked. I think the thing that pulled me out of it was when I met my current girlfriend. I've had other girlfriends in the past, but I've never felt this way about anyone or anything, and I'm really thinking about marrying her in a couple of years when we're out of school. We've been together for just over four months so far, and I can't believe how well it's all going.

I believe some suicidal tendencies can be triggered through life events, but overall, it really takes some fcuked up brain chemistry to put you over the edge. People need to slow down and tell themselves that nothing matters. Nothing IN life is more important than life itself, and once you realize that, you can walk around USING your suicidal tendencies to become an actor in a play, laughing at life with the most brutal apathy as one who walks around a zoo making fun of the stupid animals. In my weeks of hell, I saw people dragging themselves to work and to school without even understanding why they were doing it all. They were slaves. My freedom from the slavery of life is not to remove myself from life; life isn't the problem. Society is the problem. Overabundance of technology is the problem. WE as INDIVIDUALS create our own problems.

Right now I'm reading Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. That book is next piece of the puzzle.... I am comfortable with my view of life, and it's radically different than anyone else's. (PM me if you want to talk some deep philosophy.)

My goal in life now is not to work for a car company but rather to START my own car company. Wish me luck.

I have NO sympathy for someone who wants to kill themselves. If you cant find any amount of happiness surrounded by all the crap modern day culture can provide for you, then the simple flat out fact is this world is better off without you.
Suicide is for the weak. Darwin at work. We desperately need him anyways.

I'm glad I believe in Hell. It's the only way I can deal with seeing stuff like yours posted.

is championing a cause the new attention getting scheme here?

Well, Specop 007 did it. He found the solution to depression! All without ever having to learn the difference between "your" and "you're".

In casual conversation I never differentiate. I ASS-U-ME the people I'm talking to are intelligent enough to figure it out, but after MantisFistMonks blinding star of intelligence of a post I dont know.....
still at it :roll:

give it up, k? we get your point.

i see a man who is not a doctor and has never experienced depression firsthand, but likes to think and to tell everyone that he knows all about the subject.

No room for the weak in my society.

Should we get together and buy an island so you can have your own society? Keep in mind that you're also living in MY society, which has no room for insensitive ashsoles
