Suicide: Read This First

I must be in a mood today. Intellectualize the whole god damn thing, everyone has a silly stupid opinion and some well thought out advice or some such. We contemplate suicide because of one thing and one thing only. It. is. hopeless. If you can't relate to the hopelessness through experience, and offer some hope through experience then all you really have is intellectual bull shit. It's well thought out and sounds nice, the fact is that the suicide rate has surpassed the rate of death by automobile accident in the US.

Keep up the nice sounding well thought out and well intentioned advice. The real question is just how do we offer the hopeless....hope.

The rule of threes applies here. A human can live for three minutes without air, three days with out water, three weeks without food, and three months without hope.

WTF, Joe, isn't what we're doing, trying figure out how to approach, how to reason with, people who we think are suicidal. What should we do, walk away, knock 'em out, ask if we can have their x-box?
