Suicide

In 2005, Melissa and Brittney's friend, Josh, decided to take his own life.
What is it about suicide? What could possibly make someone want to end their own life? Does our society romanticize death? This film explores the tragic reality of losing someone you love.

how naive to think that suicide is just a cry for attention.

@TheLikeWoahhh: You haven't any right to judge us, and tell us what we did and did not do. Go sit in an ER for a day. Talk to the on call psychiatrist. Or visit a psych ward. Then tell us that not one person in this world does it for attention. WE HAVE EXPERIENCED IT FIRST HAND. And for you to say that we have no real emotion with it when our friend was the one who killed himself is incredibly disrespectful. It was made to help people. Not to live up to your so-called expectations.

[TheLikeWoahhh]

Why did you say that suicide is for attention? That's just stupid. I doubt you have any clue what it's like to be in that place, where you just want to die and would kill themselves to reach that. You may have statistics, but you don't have any of the real emotion along with it. No one thinks it's "cool" to kill themselves. Most people call it, as you said "a cry for attention." It's not.

When teens commit suicide its when they are depressed and feel there is no need to live on; and its pointless for them to be here. but they are wrong. thats why i hate when people are bullied. because they have no one to turn to; so everyone needs atleast one friend to lean on. like when teens commit suicide unexpectedly that means they had no one to seriously talk to...*personal thoughts*

suicide isnt desperate for attn. if a prsn isnt depress they cant kill thmslf. being hppy w fmly,frnds, etc. doesnt mean that they're hppy within. I was a teen, and was an outgoing person, i have frnds fmly that love me. i always act like am so happy arnd them. showing no sign of deprss. i tried to kill myself several times, but nobody no it. But i finally overcome it. what i m trying to say is, suicide is not a desperate for attention. it a depress.

You must be very strong already. Try to get a job, even a little one. It will make you get out there and meet people, give you a purposeful feeling about yourself. Keep strong, you are doing better than you may realize. God Bless!

This is one of the most amazing videos that I have ever seen. I agree with Evildarkme. We need to put this out on television, and in the schools. You can really help people. God bless you.

You need to go to a hospital as soon as you can.

Hold on a second. Asperger's Syndrome has NOTHING to do with depression. It's a form of autism.
