> that's really what depression is--a distortion.
<<< Thanx for stepping in with that observation. May I add that when we try desparately to fit a distortion into reality, and recycling even as many as a 1,000 times per minute, depression is an "anger turned inward", resulting in willful shutdown. Its much more involved than just a feeling or an attitude. The whole "bod" gets involved, then wants to shut down.
Suicide is not an option that improves anything; just feels that way. All 40 or 50 folks in our group of influencers (Yung: Imagos) will all be hurt terribly by our passing because we no longer chose to withstand any torture and torment, from within or without. So we are willing to opt out of our assumed pain for the real pain inflicted on 40 to 50 friends and acquaintances (influencers). Hmmmmmmmmm.........
