Friend posted this on his story a day ago.. don't really think he's my friend anymore after whatever this is.

Yes, it would still be inconsiderate. To the parent who tirelessly woke up through the nights when you were a baby to care for you. Inconsiderate to those who dropped everything to give you the best they could. Parents who worked days and nights to feed and cloth you. Inconsiderate to the teachers who tried pointing you in the right direction. But most importantly, they are not considering themselves. They are not taking in consideration their true potential. They are not taking in consideration that they don't need a doctor to heal them, they can do it themselves. They aren't taking in consideration that the low point they may be in, could be drastically improved if they simply worked on themselves. To the few with true chemical imbalances, not those who simply cling to an excuse. It's inconsiderate to the real doctors who are waiting to test you for said chemical imbalances, and treat you properly. Just to be clear, there isn't one prescription pill that will help that issue. However there are some true doctors who have the answer and the cure. Most importantly, it is inconsiderate to GOD, who chose you from billions of sperm and planned a great purpose for your life.

I was once a depressed, clinically diagnosed and treated person. Someone who saw no hope for the future. Someone who would contemplate running my car into concrete barriers just to end it quickly. Someone who has held a gun in my mouth. Someone who chose not too. Someone who decided to walk away from prescriptions and be proactive in understanding depression and it's causes. Someone who spent the last 4 years studying psychology to gain a better understanding. Someone who completely turned life around when I found the answers and seek to help others. I'm also someone who can't stand when people justify or advocate for suicide. Letting someone believe they are justified for thinking that way is only enabling them to do so. But once it's done, you won't receive a second thought from me. I won't attend a funeral and I damn sure will never find myself explaining it away. They were weak, and only the strong will survive.
