Guy commits suicide live on a body building forum

thats a really ignorant statement. do you know anything about clinical depression? i guarantee you in your lifetime youll know someone who blows their head off or intentionally overdoses or offs themselves in some other way. i just hope you arent too close to them.
i wish heeter were here to list the statistics but theres a whole hell of a lot of people who are clinically depressed and end up taking their own lives

unfortunately it has happened about 3 times, I was close to one (family) and the other two were just basic friends. I know the statement was ignorant but it is how I feel about the subject based on my observations and what I knew from these 3 people.
But no, I have no idea how clinical depression affects ones mind. I wish I did a little more, because as it is now I just see people kill themselves and instantly consider them weak for not sticking with it.
I know full well that this isn't the right view to have but it is a hard habit to break when it conflicts with my own personal observations and feelings.

Sorry if I offended anyone with my previous comments, I know this subject can be very touchy.
