I responded to a rude comment clearly directed at me. That was my reason. I can't imagine you having an issue with that.

While this may not be the most uplifting thread on CP, it sure is a valuable one.
Sorry to hear of your loss TLO. This is the 3rd suicide I know of in less than 18 months. A great business partner of over 25 years from Hong Kong had his only daughter Rachel commit suicide in April 2019. I had stayed at his place in Hong Kong many times when she was just a young girl of 7-8 years old. I was stunned to learn of her suicide. She succumbed to the pressures of a young Chinese girl who was not married and was in an abusive relationship. The second occurred early this year as a good friend for over 30 years had his 24 year old son kill himself while in counseling for depression and other mental health issues. Ben was a great hockey player and nice kid, just had demons and hung with a bad crowd of drug takers. Something that added to his issues. The family looked like a perfect picture of life but yet their oldest son of 2 boys took his own life. Just really sad and happens more than we would like to see.

The brain is such an intricate and complex organ, so it makes sense that if one thing is out of whack then it sends the whole thing into a tail spin. Mental health should honestly be our number one concern, but just so few even take it serious. There are still a significant amount of people that think people need to just be happy instead of sad. It's not gonna get better until people stop associating everyone with mental health issues with negative connotations and just saying they are crazy. Once mental health can be thought of like any other type of health problem, then we will actually see real change. The sad thing is that curing these diseases of the mind are going to be very hard and we are already behind the curve. |

I think the 70s and 80s are responsible for the over-prescribing of antidepressants. Back then it was thought that antidepressants helped ~70% of people vs placebo which was shown to help ~30% of people. New and better studies have shown a significant decrease in the amount of people antidepressants help and it is now believed that they help just about 40% of the people taking them and 30% of people would be helped by placebo effect. Antidepressants are shown to help very little to those with mild-moderate depression. Did a little research cuz I was curious. Info above can be found here https://www.ncbi..nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4592645/ The 70s and 80s really ****ed us in regards to mental health and it seems that people want to ignore all the new studies that say antidepressants are over prescribed and don't help near as many as people want to believe. |
