Well, I apologize if that's triggering, but you have to realize that is me with coping with my issues. I choose to have a sense of humor about something dark, like suicide. Partly due to my own attempt and partly due to my bet friend killing himself. I've struggled with mental disorders all of my life, and I've learned having a sense of humor about it and their consequences helps me deal with it.
Again, I apologize if that was a trigger as I didn't really consider something like that. Understand though, that anything I say about mental disorders is coming from someone who has been in and out of psych. hospitals his entire adult life.
Sorry if I upset you and feel free to pm me if you would like to discuss it further.
