    Anyone who's suffering from depression and things of that lot, don't give in, don't succumb to all the feelings that it makes you feel. Suicide is never the answer. I know it's hard to stay patient or to try and fix things, but you have to try. No matter how alone you feel, people care about you, you may not understand why or how much they do, but never put someone through the pain of losing someone they love for good. I know this isn't a very happy post or anything, and that maybe it's overdone, but from someone who's still fighting thoughts of suicide, it's not worth it. If you know anyone who's fighting depression, give them a hand please. Don't let something like this happen to you, or anyone else for that matter.

    EDIT: My friend's (the one who passed away) boyfriend has left a very worrying message hinted toward suicide, I fear he's gone too. I hate asking for help but if anyone could show some support or anything it'd be greatly appreciated!

    I completely agree with you Magikarp, I've had and have many friends who have felt the effects of depression and some have come close to giving up.. nonetheless continue being positive like you said. Much love too you man, if you need to talk about it I'm always up for a chat.

    I have suffered from depression multiple times, and reading this served as a reminder. Some people see depression as a form of weakness, and choose to attempt to push on through it without taking care of themselves. It's been said once, it'll be said again: The people who laugh and smile the most are the ones who are suffering the most.

    I also suffered from depression when i was young, due of the bully of kids on me. i suffered it since 4 years and i almost committed suicide 3 times. But i was always saying in my mind: ''Why i would end here if i have so much to live for?'' But I was thinking that was impossible to cure... But i was wrong. They have so much ways to cure a depression. If you are feeling depressed, talk to someone, a friend, a parent or even a psychologist, they will help you. But don't let the depression invade you like i do. You will suffer more than before. So this is why you have to fight and never give up.
