I heard a joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life is harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world. Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. The great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go see him. That should pick you up." Man bursts into tears. Says, "But doctor... I am Pagliacci." Good joke. Everybody laugh.
you can mock it without being unable to be concerned by it. indeed, one could argue that its affect on a person could be such that a reaction of humour, for someone who has that as their main creative outlet, is the only possible response to it.

wow could i be anymore right? NO, so 150 young men have died in the Iraq war at this point eh? OH THATS RIGHT THE CUNTING JEW DOESN'T CLASSIFY ARABS AS PEOPLE WHAT A CUNT AND THE SAME GOES FOR RICKYS UNFUNNY MATE
i dont think there was uh any jew/arab beef in what he said...he was just reading out a statistic that made suicide seem more important than fighting in a war.
Its a wrong statistic, FACT. Oh he heard it "just before he came on" an you believe the lying cunt. Are you realy going to tell me its not offensive to count only our people at the time where we were carpet bombing whole cities?
Concidering i said that already i think its YOU who is the cretin....or should that be moron. He didn't say British caulties because he thought he didn't need to, thus my point. Perhaps you would like me to draw you a fucking diagram or fashion my statement into a plastic droo-proof popup book? PRICK
@keflar5 C.A.L.M. is an organisation based in Britain, that offers help to men who are resident in Britain. It wouldn't make sense to include non-British deaths in a comparison, for the same reason that it wouldn't make sense to include non-british suicides.
Suicide? Not for me thanks I'm driving. I'm full anyway, I've already eaten clinical depression. Have you heard that the Samaritans are now being sponsored by Nike... hence the new slogon 'Just Do It'. Thank you, I'm here until thursday, try the fish.
Proust said that the first 20 years of his life were the toughest, but they inspired him the rest of his life. If he didn't live them, he wouldn't be the famous writer known today. I say the harder the youth, the more complete and deep, the man/woman... It's a blessing.
I like bicycles and I like riding them up hill if they have really good smoothness to the pumpage. Birds on the flowers that are really just there to eat worms, but in my mind are tryin' to tell me something. hahahahahahahaha. I like balogna sandwitches...sometimes I don't bother putting mustard on them and just eat them dry...and I don't even drink any water..thank you..that's my entire set.
They really should target the causes rather than the outcome

depression is like a crossroads where every road is either a dead end or somewhere you dont want to go. you need to make your own path somehow

Suicide is a choice. Deal with it when it's happened. I've lost friends through it. They made a choice. Check out Doug Stanhope.
