Mental illness be damned.

[Marc_LFD]

Recently, two Country singers took their lives because of mental illness issues they were having and god damn, suicide was not the answer.





Luke Bell wasn't too well known, but now with his death his music may reach new listeners. However, Judd is no stranger, her music has been heard by millions of people. Here are two of their songs:





RIP to them and to those two took their own lives because of depression/mental health.

The saddest part is that those illness are growing in a absurd rate on every single corner of the earth.

Sadly true. I believe I fall in that catagory. The loss of 6 BF and 1 wife, has saddened me alot. All I have left is the memories, that seem to stick in my mind. I've since noticed my happy go lucky demeanor dwindle to a sad sack of over the decades of my life.

Yes, I actually thought of doing the deed, but.. I don't know. guess I coward out in the process. LoL, me, a veteran of 3 wars, can't do to myself, what I had to then in those times.

Gaming with my PSP and Comp, and unbridled sex with myself, seems to keep my mind off of things like that. It works, to a certain extent, until I see something like on TV that triggers me again.

Poor mental health is a real thing guys.

There desperately needs to be a change in mental health treatment and a push to remove the stigmas around mental health. The sad reality is, so many people refuse or don’t seek help because of the stigma and fear of shame around seeking mental health. This has always resulted in people getting worse and often leading to coping through substances, self-harm, or even suicide.

Agreed, and I may add that public policies do save a lot of lifes. Say what you will about public services, but nothing private has the reach of a public policy. Depression, anxiety and other similar illness are widespread, actions by actors with reach are fundamental.
