Re: Gay man, who suffered from depression over his circumcision, kills himself
Well given the general attitude you give here and your response in the other suicide thread "that if people stopped giving a fuck, suicide wouldn't be an issue" begs to question your understanding of depression that leads to suicidal tendencies or suicide.
Depression is caused due to feeling hopeless and quitting.
NO:I just got fired. I feel worthless. I'm going to kill myself.
YES:I just got fired. Fuck them, I'm filing for unemployment and I'll have to go through some adjustments, maybe get a job that isn't as aesthetically pleasing for the time being, and temporarily go on county assistance.
Thing is, usually white men (highest suicide rate in North America), hate to be in a position like that. They be damned to stand in a food pantry line, they sure as hell be damned to go on food stamps, they rather kill themselves that work at a burger stand. Fucked up.
Depression is caused by people thinking they feel alone.
NO:I'm gay and (asian, black, disabled, feminine, transgendered, from a religious family, homeless) etc. Nobody understands me. I'm going to kill myself.
YES:I'm gay and (insert predicament here), but god gave me this body and I don't want to destroy what he created. There are people in worse situations to myself. Killing myself is quitting, and if I disgust one person walking down the street, I did my job, because somebody has to be the freak and the odd one out, I feel honored for it to be me.
Depression is caused due to people giving a fuck about what others think of them.
NO:I got rejected and called a sissy fag for being a fem gay by this really masculine hunk at the gay bar. I'm so depressed. I want to kill myself.
YES:Throw a drink at his face and fuck him.
Thing is people don't realize that you shouldn't live for the approval of others. Prove them wrong. Own their ass like I did two people in this thread. Not everyone will agree with you, but secretly in the shadows, others slowly will.
Depression leads to suicide yes, but depression is caused by people not loving themselves over trivial reasons.
Now unless you have a terminal illness or something along those lines, then I understand.
But killing yourself because you got fired, or nobody seems to relate to you is stupid.
