Katie Couric's Notebook: Teen Suicide (CBS News)

[MrRowdat]

Antidepressants are NEVER the answer....Have you ever watched a pharmaceutical commercial where they said ______ insert the name of your favorite antidepressant in th blank space is THOUGHT TO WORK by affecting such and such chemicals in the brain. THEY'RE NOT EVEN SURE HOW THIS SHIT WORKS BUT THEY'RE MORE THAN WILLING TO PROFIT FROM IT!!! FUCK BIG PHARM!!

[xbabyfacedx]

if all of u people that say you 'tried' to commit suicide actually did try, you wouldnt be here typing on this clip.... u obviously didn't hard hard enough. And the only people that i believe are really suicidal are the ones that quietly have took there own life, not the people that sit there talking/threatning about taking thier own life. Them people are just crying out for attention.

[IceTalonHawkFang]

@xbabyfacedx Did you know, at the very end of your life your body panics to try to save itself? Did you know as your commiting suicide, you will automatically do whatever it takes to survive? These people are not "crying out for attention" theyre crying out for help. If they talk/threaten to take their life, its because they want someone to realize and actually help them before their self worth runs out. Get the facts, get in the position before you judge people you dont even know.

[xbabyfacedx]

@IceTalonHawkFang they wouldnt have time to panic if they tried the best ways like jump of a bridge for example. And yeah its a cry out for help in some cases but most of them do just want the attention/sympathy. you wouldnt believe how many people have told me that they are going to kill themselfs, its way over 50 people now and every single one of them are still here today! iv lost my patients for them people. everyones been down in the dumps at some point, but not everyone does that brovardo.

@xbabyfacedx Where exactly did you obtain the information that people who attempt suicide are never again capable of using a computer? Just interested...

[xbabyfacedx]

@TheCatsLastWord if they really did try to kill themselves they'd be dead, so they wouldnt be around to use a computer...

[ipurpleprincessdj]

ive tried to commit suicide and Katie, YOU HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA WHAT U R TALKING ABOUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

[HOLDTHAPHONE]

Suicide is simply just deciding the time and the circumstances for the inevitable death - so everybody needs to chill

[sparklingbluelight]

The way the media explains suicide sounds like, ultimately, we have to depend on medication to get better and they often leave out how important contact (physically communicating with the person) is....

Nothing can be completely solved with drugs. Anti-depressents are meant to restore the chemical balance in the brains of those who are depressed. But once the balance has been restored, drugs can't tell you how to rise up from there....
