I read that people can often be suicidal and depressed, and the depression is the thing which prevents them from taking action in committing suicide, but then if say they start an antidepressant, it gives them the motivation now, and get up and go, to actually take their own life, as before, the depression was holding them back. Hence why it's a concern, prescribing for this group of patients.

Some of the nurses there had no idea why I was still there and told me to talk to the psychiatrist assigned to me. I talked to tons of people in charge. Wouldn't let me go. Psychiatrist there would give me like 10 seconds of time and just say you're doing good. The girls would come out crying after talking to him because we were all being held there against our will. People who were taken involuntarily had to go to court just to get out. Taken from their jobs and families. It was disgusting. I have no idea how they're allowed to do that. Also they mix normal people with those who have schizophrenia and whatnot. It's so stupid. First day there some guy was threatening people with a pencil. Great place. Oh and I also learned that social workers aren't on your side either. Was also during covid so my mom was only allowed to visit me once for 15 minutes with a nurse listening to us. There needs to be a lawsuit. I also became anemic during my time there because the food was so bad. So their fix for that was putting me on the "healthier" diet with even worse food.

Well, I'm guessing the reason that French sociologist didn't focus on Schizophrenia and depression is two-fold: society didn't have a good understanding of mental illness, let alone schizophrenia and depression, in 1897. Second, he was a sociologist, not a psychologist; he didn't study the brain or individual metrics of well-being, he prioritized social factors that can be attributed to society.

Society had a pretty good understanding of mental illness and we have a better understanding because of these efforts. We have actually gone backwards quite a bit in the last decade or so in regards to our understanding due to the fraudulent contributions of post modernist psychology.

It's silly, imo. Nothing is worth that kind of stress or self isolation. People just want too much. So many people out there wanting a friend, or love, or adventure, or respect, whatever one's pain. You can just ignore it all and choose to be happy, choose to disregard negative forces. Think about trafficking victims, slaves, people who's loved ones are murdered, families going from war to refugee camp, to foreign country and culture, child abuse, all these people live among us, and are doctors, politicians, bakers, etc. I can't speak for you, but these thoughts make me wonder how I can be sorry about anything. The attacks I've suffered completely suck, and are totally negatively affective to my life, but none of it is that bad. These people not only survive, they are there for their children etc. and are usually the best moral people. Of course, the culmination of all the damage creates more damage, and is the source for the sickness in our culture that has cost me so much. But we can't blame other victims. Especially now I just credited them with saving my life by giving me the perspective to maintain some humility. You have to beat fear. You do that with courage. Courage is the Key emotion related to Honor. You can practice your courage through practicing Honor. That means things like telling the Truth even when it's embarrassing or will cause stress, or may cause a reaction in some one. Face it, face that fear. Think about your daily habits, and your actual values, are you really honoring what you believe? Make that change no matter how scary. You will find things don't go the way you thought ty would, and you will have more courage to do i again, in a bigger spot, etc. Honor takes courage. And courage conquers fear. Courage leads to the light, fear leads to the dark. They are polar opposites in our search for Truth. You must foster, build, nurture the courage in you. You must, or you will be in the darkness.

What I want to know is this: why do people care if someone kills themselves? While alive, strangers can treat a person with aloof contempt without giving it a second thought, but if that same person then becomes suicidal, society at large suddenly cares whether or not that person is able to end things. I think the answer is that when someone becomes suicidal, they become larger than an individual person who is able to be fit into a box by society at large. They become a person who has transcended society by choosing, in the most drastic and irreversible way, to reject it in its entirety. I think the reason why we cannot allow people to make their own choices about when to die - even those who we can admit have a justifiable reason for doing so, such as the elderly and infirm - is that we cannot allow such a negation of the seemingly innate meaning of society to take place. We see suicide as an attack on the foundation of our human conceit - that life has an inherent meaning.

"It then remains for us to specify the attitude of immanent philosophy towards the man who takes his own life and towards the criminal. How easily the stone falls from one's hand onto the grave of the man who has killed himself, how difficult in contrast was the struggle of the poor man who laid himself so well to rest. First he cast from afar an anxious glance at Death and turned away in horror; then, trembling, he skirted Him in wide arcs; but with each day the distance grew smaller and smaller until finally he threw his tired arms around Death's neck and looked Him in the eye: and in those eyes was a peace, sweet peace. Whoever can bear the burden of conscious existence no more, let him cast it off. Whoever can hold out no longer in the carnival hall of life-or, as Jean Paul says, in the great servants’ quarters of the world-let him step out through the ever opened door into the still night." - Philipp Mainländer

[@SignorTromboncino]

I think it simply boils down to Loss of Emotional/Thought/Meaning Control What the professor showed makes sense, but it doesn't cover the whole picture. Depression might be the most common cause of suicide because it takes on the emotional/logic/meaning side of a person, but if there is a distinction between these three the thing becomes more complex For example, if someone has tried everything to solve their issues, but their condition keeps worsening and they can't really see a way out anymore, the emotional side shuts down and it makes sense to suicide on a logical level. At that point I believe there's no turning back, unless the person is forcefully brainwashed to rewire the thought process in a more positive way, as he will never see a way out on his own Or when someone feels so good he wouldn't care to die in that specific moment as he would've experienced the very peak life had to offer and everything would be downhill from there on. Especially in extreme episodes of Mania, a person can feel so good life loses its material meaning, so it becomes easier to slip and commit suicide so the happiness never ends Or if there is a clear disconnection with the external reality, and delusions are in play, a person could believe he wouldn't die with a bullet to the brain, for example, so he could try it and accidentally commit suicide But in every single case there is a neglect in personal needs either consciously or not, which then transforms itself in a loss of control based on the situation and events and can end up into suicide based on the intensity of the whole thing These are my thoughts and personal insights about the matter after years of introspection and talking with other suicidal patients

@@fenjohrer Well, here is the crux of it. While you are correct that there are people that are often overly blaming things outside of themselves, rational people don't go out of their way to blame things on everybody else. When someone is emotionally stable, there's a certain level of accepting ones own part to play in things and that taking it out on someone else would be rude and isn't mature. But life can be difficult for everyone and requires some emotional processing, acceptance and maybe even some problem solving. When people haven't learned how to do that or they have received let's say a difficult childhood where their parents repeatedly insult them and traumatize them over and over, then they go out of their way to complain and blame things other than themselves, because they have all this chaos inside themselves they are projecting out into the world. Then depression may come from a lack of ability to change that, to change all the negative things in life, in the world or about theirself. But in reality their perception of those things is a hyper focus of the most negative aspects of life and isn't looking at things from other perspectives. Sometimes they don't even have depression and become narcissistic egomaniacs that want to control everything so that they never have to feel bad about themselves. Lol What I'm ultimately trying to say is that it is nuanced and very complicated, everyone handles trauma differently. There are both biological and environmental conditions that influence a person's emotional reactivity and ability to function normally.

[@Jupa]

Because only those who haven’t emotionally developed blame it on a big covert conspiracy. The system won’t change itself for you. Realising that is a fundamental part of growing up. Sure, depression impedes that process - but it is borne out of selfish thinking.

[@elio7610]

The issue is not just the system we created, it is the system of nature itself that leads to our suffering. If we could just create a utopia then nobody would have any reason to exploit others and everyone would want to build such a utopia but there is seemingly no path towards such a utopia and so instead we fight to be at the top of the exploitation game because exploitation will happen anyway and we would rather not be the ones being exploited. The universe is seemingly a zero sum game; everything gained comes with an equal loss. Work never pays off because you will always lose more energy than you can gain from working. The workaround is to exploit, to steal, to gain that which you did not put in. We have no choice but to exploit, one way or another, or else we gain nothing.

[@daanstrik4293]

@@JupaI agree up until the “selfish thinking” part. Depression often spawns from a desire to do better (Both to themselves, but especially others). Its part of why shame was mentioned as an important factor. Often depressed people continue to live for others long after their selfish wishes turned to death.

Although I would consider myself to be quite suicidal, I seem to be fairly low-risk when assessed by the equation. My life is not in any particular disorder or disarray. No drugs, alcohol, sleep deprivation, psychosis, etc that could cause an altered state. I don't really feel like I have any kind of time limit to fix things by. The only aspect that really fits me is depression, as my psychiatrist states that I am severely depressed. That being said, I do agree with what was said about not all depressed people being suicidal. And there are many other emotional states (anxiety, anger, paranoia, etc) that can spawn suicidal thoughts as well. But because of the diverse way suicidal thoughts can manifest, I think it would unfortunately be impossible to come up with one equation/evaluation that will catch all of us in time

I feel like in certain situations religiosity can make suicide more likely though, dependent on the religious belief. Like, if you believe in reincarnation, then self-terminating is basically just a do-over button, right? I've also heard of situations in ancient Norse cultures where old or injured soldiers would challenge someone more competent than them to combat so that they could die in battle. This could be considered a kind of suicide by combat.

I knew this years ago after figuring out the basic operating principle of humans, we look towards the easiest way towards our desired outcomes according to our value judgments. Put simply, if someone kills themself, it’s usually because it was (in their view, right or wrong) the most expedient way to achieve their goal, whatever it may be, even if it harms them (which explains why addicts are a thing). So the solution would be, fundamentally, to get people to step back and properly look at and attempt alternate solutions to the problem, *or* realise the problem was nonsensical to begin with. Bit callous, but the rationale is sound.

[@funcat3560]

Hey, it's not so callous. Lots of the time suicidal people simply want to not be suffering anymore. Helping people live in less pain is a good goal. And oftentimes it's far easier and more effective to help others than it would be for everyone to help themselves.

[@bigjerome-wz4uo]

Far less callous than my schizo ramblings, you pretty much summed up my thoughts sanely.

[@badabing3391]

that presumes suicide is irrational. There isnt any way to determine this ultimately, which is why intelligent people still commit suicide. The issue here isnt callousness, its arrogance in your faith that life is valuable. Although, its not an uncommon view despite having no fundamental basis for the last 100-200 years.

[@daymar3]

@@badabing3391It’s a reasonable assumption for the vast majority of cases. Even intelligent people can be in severe anguish that at the time feels insurmountable. I’ve been in situations where I hurt so badly I would’ve ended it, but looking back I’m glad I didn’t because I was only able to think in the short term due to pain. Maybe some people do sanguinely perform the grim calculus but I doubt that’s true most of the time. Whatever is happening has to overcome our innate instinct for self-preservation, which is an irrational instinct. Hard to overcome instinct with rationality and argumentation.

[@badabing3391]

@@daymar3 i dont disagree that under a persons own worldview suicide is often irrational, but i do think a large portion of people who commit suicide do so for at least good reasons if not totally rational ones. If your life has been on the downswing for over a decade, its not irrational to assume it will likely not get back to a level that youd care to live for, even if its technically coincidental. Problems compound, theyre rarely isolated events.

(1) misreading of Durkheim [not an individualist acct]; (2) if depression is necessary but not sufficient, same criticism applies to anomie/desperation; (3) “spirituality” isn’t needed, community suffices (cf Durkheim); (4) “depression” not associated directly w/ suicide, as it lowers the will to act. it’s often a brief recession of the depressive condition that enables suicide.

[@raphaelnjuguna6965]

went to chatgpt, The comment you provided seems to critique some points made in the video regarding sociological and psychological understandings of depression, suicide, and the role of community or spirituality. Here’s a breakdown of the points mentioned: 1. **Misreading of Durkheim (not an individualist account)**: Émile Durkheim, a sociologist, is known for his theory on suicide, where he argued that suicide is not just an individual act but a social phenomenon influenced by factors like the lack of social integration and moral regulation. This critique suggests that the video might have wrongly interpreted Durkheim as presenting an individualistic account of suicide, while Durkheim focused on social factors, particularly the breakdown of community bonds (anomie). 2. **If depression is necessary but not sufficient, same criticism applies to anomie/desperation**: The comment implies that if the video argues depression is a necessary but not sufficient cause of suicide, the same logic should apply to Durkheim’s concept of *anomie* (a state of normlessness or social instability). Durkheim posited that anomie or social desperation could lead to suicide but acknowledged that it alone doesn’t directly cause it, much like depression. 3. **“Spirituality” isn’t needed, community suffices (cf Durkheim)**: The comment argues that instead of focusing on "spirituality" as a solution, community or social integration alone, as Durkheim emphasized, is enough to prevent suicide. Durkheim believed that strong social ties and community connections help protect individuals from suicide by giving them a sense of belonging and purpose. 4. **“Depression” not associated directly with suicide, as it lowers the will to act. It’s often a brief recession of the depressive condition that enables suicide**: This point challenges the common assumption that depression directly leads to suicide. The commenter highlights that during deep depression, a person’s energy and motivation are often so low that they may not have the will to act on suicidal thoughts. It’s during moments of slight recovery, when energy levels temporarily improve, that a person might be more likely to attempt suicide. This aligns with some psychological research on the relationship between depression and suicide attempts. In summary, the comment critiques potential misinterpretations of Durkheim’s theory of suicide and suggests that the role of community (not spirituality) is central, while also discussing the complex relationship between depression and suicide.
