Suicide
I don't think anyone has actually killed themself because their political party lost an election. Usually it is a failure of some kind, their business, marriage, career. Maybe they are trying to cheat a deathly disease. But more probably a failure of some kind. Is the failure thier fault? Is it something out of their control and they feel totally helpless? What stops some people while others go ahead? Does religion play a part when the depression is this low? How do you know how low someone would have to be? How low could you go? How can you judge if a reason is good or bad if you are not that person deciding? Have you known some one who did but you don't know why? Have you known some one who did and you do know why? What's the difference..those people felt the same inside? Would you just go ahead and do it or would you take the time to get your affairs in order to make it easier on your family? I mean, you may be a helpless failure but you still care about your family. Or could you be so depressed you can't care about the family? Have you ever tried and failed? Why haven't you tried again? If you tried and failed does that make you a worse failure than you already were? No, I haven't been drinking. I just think about it every day since I failed in December 1971.
