That sucks. Depression is a bitch. I know because I'm dealing with this shit right the fuck now, but what I won't do is attempt suicide.

Why? God has shown me that I can't trust what I think I know. I think I know a gunshot to the Head will kill me. God has shown me how that can be wrong.

Just my mother fucking luck I shoot myself in the head with a bullet and it Caroms off a bone in my skull and I fucking live.

I'm a vegetable, but I live. But I live a much more fucked up life than I was living before. Now I'm quadriplegic. Now I couldn't kill myself if I mother fucking wanted to.

Tomorrow has the probability of possibilities. You could win the lottery. You could meet the love of your life. Give tomorrow a chance

Wow, I hope you got the help that you need!

Living is a purpose and not everybody gets that chance.

So, we don't know what someone is going through until its too late.

This is why people need to open up more without being judged because you never know who you might save listening to them.

Depression is a disease but a lot of people succumb to it while some survive it!

I have had my bouts with depression. Just got through seeing a therapist as a result of my job. I agree with you I would never do suicide. One I'm in my 50s I figure I'll meet my maker soon enough. Two I would never do that to my family. Three bad food and drink will get me soon enough.

Oh, I am, slick. I am.

I posted that because I'm not scared to talk about my troubles and issues. Had I not met that one nurse, I might have tried it. I was that fucking depressed.

Now I'm scared to try it. All I can think about right now is what if I miss.

This nurse said one guy did a swan dive off of a 10 story building and lived. She said three other guys shot themselves in the head or mouth and lived. A couple other people tried overdosing and lived

Now, each person because of their suicide attempt are much worse off now than they would have been before had they just waited to see how their life was going to turn out

I don't have the patience to be quadriplegic. Fuck that action.

I would think athletes experience a level of depression if they feel their career was harmed by some injury or some diagnosis that stopped them from performing at their top level. Track stars don't make the money that NBA or NFL players make, so they can't ride out a career ending injury with a couple of mill and invest it to live well.

I remember hearing Eddie George talk about depression and contemplating suicide after the NFL.

He had been top of the hill for NFL players and all he could think was "What the fuck am I now"

That is a high hill to fall from.

The reason I'm not shy about it is because I know I can help people period I know I can impress upon someone come a somewhere that tomorrow has the probability of possibilities.

Tomorrow someone will win the lottery and I guarantee you it is someone who really needed it. Tomorrow someone will meet the love of their life, and I guarantee you they have waited a long time for that.

To go from winning a gold or silver medal to working a regular 9 to 5:00 job? That seems like a hell of a fall. For an athlete who has done that for 10 to 15 years it's a hell of a fall.

People just want the sadness to go away and they don't know how to make the sadness go away quicker.

This ain't the way. That ain't the way because if you miss, your life is terrible. You will pray for the bad days you tried to escape from.
