I'm sorry for the lost of your friend.

Suicide needs to be discussed.

Thank you for that.

Be careful with drug-induced suicide ideation! Antidepressants SSRIs - Prozac like - has violent behavior and it makes people kill others or/and self.

It is very different from the "wanting" to die.

Be careful!

@BinaryCoder You don't have Asperger do you? We are taught by doctors that we can't communicate properly with normal people and it fucking sucks. We're people who will never be as everybody else.

@mydsbr We all think our depression is unique when it really isn't. Don't let a bad experience that you had 8 years ago bring you down. Now is the time to act! You seem like an awesome guy to me and I can promise you that there are people out there who would wanna be friends with you.

You can't solve or even fully understand psycholical problems in a logical way. Unfortunately. If it would be that easy...

Always.That's statistics my friend.And if you don't find anyone in your own city (forums etc.) then you can always try the next 5 cities around yours.BTW,while you search,enjoy in your life by yourself.Life can be very interesting! ;-)
