What is important to me is religious people keep the stigma and shame alive.
Without that, it will go out of control.

I don't think that stigma and shame enter the equation for most that make the attempt.
I had a plan. Simple. Just take all the meds in the bottle with grapefruit, and that would do it.
I never pulled it off because of the stigma. I know a lot of people who the idea won't cross their mind seriously and it's due to the stigma.
The stigma is good. It got us here where as in the past, there was no meds.
NO IT IS NOT!
FUCKING STOP!
I've been suicidal too, and nobody shamed me, my mother sure as hell wouldn't have. I AM STILL ALIVE. And FYI I have never been on meds either.
The idea of bringing shame on the family is BULLSHIT, when it comes to mental illness, and even when it comes to females and gender roles. That bullshit is from antiquity, and has no barring on our modern understanding of evolution, biology and the human brain.
My sisters have anxiety and depression too. If you even dare tell me I should be ashamed of that, that is bullshit nonsense. THANK YOU once again, for not only insulting me, but my sisters as well.
