Thanks for the feedback, I agree it does appear to be a silent epidemic especially cause so few seem willing to openly talk about it and that it's almost taboo the way many respond to the subject.
Maybe you're right in that people not wanting to talk about it just don't want any more problems on top of their plate, though I imagine if they aren't thinking about killing themselves that there's a good chance their problems aren't as severe as the people who are thinking about killing themselves and perhaps that they should try to be a lil more understanding and loving. Though I realize we're both generalizing there and that all cases are not the same and that different people have different reasons and ways of looking at things.
Peace to you as well!
