my primary school mate has committed suicide. just thought i'd remind everyone that depressed people need our help, but sometimes the people who are the most cheerful are also the ones who are dying, even if they're really popular and seem to have everything

But I am interested in the message you're sending out as a result of this.
We are to constantly suspect depression in others, & treat every contact with others as a matter of life or death, whether they appear physically depressed or not?
What about what you were saying on the 'Party Pills' thread about personal responsibility? Doesn't every adult have responsibility for their own mental wellbeing? Doesn't every adult have an obligation to look after themselves without relying on society to help prop them up? This is what I read into what you've posted on other topics, why is it different for depression?
Again, I'm sorry for your loss dude. But depression is a serious illness man, it can lead to suicidal behaviour if left undiagnosed and untreated, and it needs specialised treatment that the average joe is not qualified to provide. The guilt you're feeling is absolutely needless, there's nothing you could've done to have prevented this.

cheers bro, i guess what i was trying to say was that people who appear to be all happy on the outside might be unhappy on the inside... yeah i know that's really cliched but i definitely fell for it. i just wish i had kept in touch with him 'cos i've been suicidal before for similar (although different) reasons (he killed himself 'cos his girlfriend kept cheating on him) and could've probably talked to him about it and shared our feelings... like man if i had to pick people out of our class that would've committed suicide he'd be one of the last, i just wonder if it's because when someone popular and cool feels suicidal they don't know how to deal with it because they've been with the "in crowd" all their lives and it's a whole new feeling for them to get depressed (whereas people who get picked on at school are familiar with it when they think about suicide later in their lives and can bear through just a bit longer)?
and just from my personal experience when i was in a mental hospital after ODing i couldn't stand it there and all i thought about was wanting to get out and i hated all the doctors there 'cos they keep blaming you (in a nice way) for the way you are when for example you might feel like you're suicidal 'cos of what someone else did, same with a few other people there too who were still capable of thinking for themselves instead of completely doped up... what we needed were friends on the outside world 'cos a big factor was loneliness... just my opinion
