I too have a low tolerance to hearing about CD, or Politics for that matter (eke). I am depressed enough, BUT I do have a delete button. I use it often. This is a SMALL price to pay for the privilege of being on this list. Over the years I have lost teens I have worked with to suicide, you never really get over it. I have also managed it help a few, after attempts to die failed. That is a whole other story. I know what it is like to consider suicide myself. I do not fear being susceptible to the kind of suicide that is planned. I fear the times when it comes "out of the blue". Like last week, at the beach. If my wonderful family was not with me, I am afraid I would have given in to that overwhelming compulsion to "end it". I have had training about suicide as a professional, as many of you have too. BUT, and its a really BIG BUT, we are ALL subseptable. David Meigs aka: Pappy [log in to unmask]
