Yeah- I hear ya. My cousin Steven committed sucide 4 yrs ago when I was in 4th grade and the family still can't get over it. You can't tell a person that has REAL probelms to shut up and get over it. It's a emotional complication. They oviously have a seriously probelm. Steven was showing signs of sucide. But nobody cared. They just said to get over it. I think that egged him on. I know my uncle regrets not sitting down and letting him talk and get his feelings out when he wanted too. It's about time some people voiced this.

Good question, and I think it really depends on how you say it. Obviously something like "I don't give a shit if you kill yourself" isn't appropriate but you can tell them it won't affect you either way, if you can say it without being overly insensitive. Kk?

I agree completely. These are people with VERY serious problems, that require direct attention, not smirk comments to make them feel worse about themselves. Those that do not understand the severity of the problems that these people are facing should not even bother replying. You should put yourself in the shoes of the person posting and think how you would feel if someone said some of the same things to you. Depression and suicide is not a joke, it is very real. It is very real, and is an issue that is bigger than some care to admit. Expecialy the schools that the people are in, because they have not been doing a darn thing to help with this, and I feel they should really be focusing on helping a whole hell of a lot more!
