• (1 vote) what do you do if you feel like killing yourself sometimes and you hate being who you are eg.
  

  I can only speak for myself but, whenever anything goes wrong, I start to look for answers in myself.
  
  Say for example: I don’t have many or any friends. The first thing I do is ask myself, whether or not there’s something wrong with me. The truth is that there isn’t anything wrong with me but that is the first place I check.
  
  Life isn’t going the way I want and there doesn’t seem to be a way out; it’s easy for me to think negative thoughts and that includes killing myself. I find that the best way for me to get out of that cycle is to ask the question; will it help me? If the answer is no, then dismiss it as nothing more than nonsense.
  
  Try to think positive, which isn’t easy but, when you can think more positive things than negative things in a single day, you will start to feel better about yourself.

• I suffer from servear depression how do you beat it?
  

  Learning to give without expecting to get anything back is all good and well but, I have done that all my life but it still doesn’t lift the depression. It made me feel used all the time and I stopped giving.
  
  Speaking as someone who is clinically depressed; I found that the only way to overcome my depression, which is always there, is to change my perspective of the world around me.
  
  I know that I can’t change anyone around me but I can change myself. I had to give myself a purpose; this way I could get away from thinking about myself. If I analysed myself to deeply, things tended to appear worst than they were.
  
  I suffer from asthma, insomnia, depression and sinus problems but; compare that to someone who is terminally ill, or someone who could not walk, made me realise how fortunate I was.
  
  Only you can lift yourself out of depression and that means looking at how fortunate you are compared to someone else.
  
  I remember a phrase that goes something like: “Appreciate what you have, because you might loose it.”
  
  Whilst there is live, there is hope. Go out more, help others as much as you can but also remember to help yourself as well.

• Someone who knows a good movie that I can discuss about?
  

  District 9 seems like a good film to discuss.
  
  Some people say that they can see influences from apartheid (South Africa.)
  
  I noticed that the living conditions of the aliens, reminded me more of the living conditions that were found in the concentration camps in Germany, in the second world war.
  
  There was a heavy influence from first-person shooters like: Half Life 2 (City 17), Hallo and any film with a science lab employee, where something goes wrong.
  
  It has a positive theme going through it, which was that; If we all work together and get along, we can achieve a lot together but, if we fight all the time, we don’t ever achieve much.
