Lost my 14 year old son to suicide Feb. 3 2014. We had no clue as to why at the time. Only after a long period of grief (still grieving) did I start to add things up. I'm still not able to think about it for too long. If I focus too long on Anthony (my son) I begin to break. I can't afford to break, I have a six year old and a son graduating college. I'll just continue going forward I guess. No other choice.

There is no magical conversation that could have helped your son, certainly don't blame yourself. Teenagers very much act emotionally, against better judgement for which only time and maturity will give them a better perspective. I do wish psychology was more popular in my teenage years (the 90's) and people like Professor Jordan Peterson were around trying to help people for the sake of it. Focus on your boy and your young man now, and look after yourself.

He didn't say, "Just snap out of it!" He showed that he genuinely cared about his friend's well-being. That's what one needs when going through depression-someone who says, "I don't get it-but I'm going to help you." That's awesome, Joe!

My son died of suicide 11 years ago He was 29. I have a lot of guilt due to the circumstances. I have to remind myself that I tried to save him. I could never be angry with him. His pain was unbearable for him. He is free of pain now. He hurt so bad that he thought everyone would be better without him.. He was too good to stay, it hurt him too badly the way humans treated each other. I miss him everyday. My life changed that afternoon. I am a different person who will always have a hole in my heart until we meet again. Suicide touches my heart everytime I hear of one..

I promise you that it’s not your fault, you’re not to blame, & you deserve all the love in the world. And no matter what your last interaction was with her, that does not have to define you. Maybe you could think about writing to her. One time or a thousand times, if it helps. Talk about her, write about her, find yourself, find your own way through your heartache, your anger, your pain. Allow yourself to Feel every emotion thoroughly, every time, for the rest of your life because the only wounds that don’t heal are the ones we don’t take care of. And when they heal, there is still a scar, that’s normal. There is no such thing as “getting over” the loss of a loved one especially the early traumatic ones.

Working out and talking to a friend that has been there and is now out of depression helps. Ive dealt with depression all my life and ive contemplated suicide many times. A few months ago i was in that black hole and i paid a friend a visit, he was going through depression and anxiety as well. Talking to him and knowing i wasnt alone in the way i felt helped. He turned me on to st. Johns wort pills that night and so at that point i thought what do i have to lose? I took 2 st johns wort pills a day along with 1omega 3 a day and ive been feeling better since, im still taking them and i cant say that is what got me out of depression completely or its a placebo effect, but oddly enough i do feel alot better. Another thing that helps alot is listening to music and watching old feel good movies or shows that made me feel good as a kid. I hope this helps someone outhere battling with depression.

I had struggled with serious crippling anxiety for 7+ years and the hardest part was actually noticing that how I think / the way I go about my day to day is not normal. It wasn't until I actually opened up to somebody close to me that I got a different perspective on my own mindset and figured out that my mind was abnormal and giving me a falsified perception of reality (in this case, hyper criticism and neurotic thinking). I legitimately grew to think that my thinking patterns were entirely normal and acceptable. Only now that I'm medicated and healthy I can look back and wonder how the hell I even grew accustomed to living every day fighting with my own mind.

Ari did the greatest possible explanation of all of the tangled components on the mystery of depression, suicidal thoughts and behaviors. I am a “young” 67 year old woman having over 11 counselors and psychiatrist, one psychiatrist was for 16 years. I have tried over 20 combinations of meds. The last 3 years I gradually changed so many things in my life, including quitting alcohol. Still smoking pot but usually just later in the evening. As Ari said, it was part of my internal identity. Everyone identified me as the life of the party. Pressure I put on myself. I would only leave the house if I knew I could be “on”. I have since tried to sit back and relax and enjoy the moment in all aspects of my life experiences. I am great-full for all of the ups and downs of my mental health, as they have taught me compassion and made me a good listener.

What stands out to me the most is how curious Joe is about clinical depression. You can tell he’s never had to deal with it. As someone who is clinically depressed for the last 20 years, seeing people who don’t have to deal with it always surprises me. It’s such an everyday part of life for people afflicted with it, that we eventually began to assume most people feel this on some level. But they don’t. That’s the hardest part for me, is having something nobody but a therapist or other depressed people can relate to, and since clinical depression is still very taboo, it is a very lonely existence to have these daily struggles only for people to have no idea how bad they can get.

The way I explain my clinical depression to someone is that just being conscious feels constantly wrong, horrible, and exhausting. I'd constantly be asleep to get away from consciousness. So the way I have always understood someone who has clinical depression and commits suicide, is that their looking for that permanent and absolute unconsciousness that sleep gave me, and I assume many others who have clinical depression.

I think another new way this has manifested in society in recent history is the constant passing of time through media (KZitem, Films, Songs etc.) Personally, for the last year and a half, have lay on my bed all day and wasted countless hours watching youtube. No memories, happy or sad have been experienced, just nothing. I think what you say is true and have always felt like im only watching these youtubers and other peoples lifes because i dont want to think about my own. It is very much like a state of unconciousness as you never actually have an emotional experience; you're literally just watching other people do things; passing the time and waiting for something to happen, but you have no clue what the fuck that thing is.

All it does it indirectly allows you to not have to think any negative thoughts, well, because you're obviously unconciouss and its impossible. Sleep is that temporary relief you can get, even though it is not really a relief because you're literally just shutting off. Real relief would be feeling good, smiling, laughing or just forgetting about your depression for a moment. But in the twisted mind of a depressed person, sleep enables you not to even have to think about anything. You're right though, when you wake up it starts all over again and thats why your mind wants your body to stay in bed all day and chase that 'unconciousness' through sleep as much as it can. For the relief from negative thoughts. Hope that makes sense. If i'm not making sense it is because i've been up for around 48 hours and cant sleep 😨 now thats a fucking catch 22 like crazy lol. welcome to the mind of depressed person where nothing makes sense 😂

And I swear this is probably the most honest discussion about what depression really is and how it really feels. And having men talk about it was really cool because it kind of seems like it’s harder for men to talk about stuff like this. I absolutely love this. Comics are the shit because they’re honest. All their stuff comes from a very honest place if they’re a good comic. It’s hard to be honest with yourself when you’re depressed. Good job Joe n ari

Take strength in that. From a young age I always saw suicide as "a bad trade", in the sense that MY problems and pain being taken away isn't worth my family and friends hurting if they lost me. I had thought that way long before I had depression, so now anytime I have suicidal thoughts, it is always a lingering thought in the back of my head that holds me back from acting on those thoughts and I am so thankful for that. I feel that having that mind set for so long, and having developed that mental barrier has saved my life time and time again. Let that feeling of love for your mom take over in the moment, sometimes its enough to distract you until someone else gets home, or until the feeling passes. Self awareness isn't easy to master, especially so for people suffering from depression, but it is such a helpful tool in recovery. So when you have that little reminder of your mom, lean into it, that is your connection with reality at that point and having a connection to reality when considering suicide is so important. Whether you know it or not, youre a fighter. I wish you all the best on your journey, and hope you have access to a good support system.

Depression shrinks the hippocampus which is responsible for memory. I had the same issue at one point, it was effecting me and I didn’t want that. Exercise. I view it as a gift because it pretty much is. It’s extremely beneficial and Im grateful that I’m capable of doing it when there are people with debilitating conditions (cerebral palsy, people with missing limbs, blind people, etc) that have trouble with it and wish they could be in a better condition, so I do it for those people as well. Aerobic exercise increases BDNF, which creates new brain cells which would improve memory. HIIT in particular produces higher levels of BDNF as well as mood boosting endorphins. And facing adversity through intense exercise dramatically improves your self-worth, identity and creates resiliency. It makes you realize you really are stronger than you think you are. It sparks a drive for improvement and purpose. Also, Lions mane is a supplement that increases BDNF. I would research other ways to increase your serotonin levels as well. Your gut is considered your 2nd brain. Gut bacteria regulates your mood, so probiotics are definitely something you should consume. Sun exposure, having perspective and practicing mindfulness/gratitude are more things to consider. Out of 7 + billion theres an exorbitant amount that suffer more than me and Im mindful of that everyday. Plus, im fortunate to have been born in this time period and in a 1st world country. We have access to so much valuable information right at our fingertips, better technology, etc. I’m thankful as fuck for KZitem and Spotify as well. I couldn’t imagine living in any time period from the past. All of these things benefited me. life can be very fucked up but i hope this could provide some insight and value to atleast a few people.

@@leo5543 but as a divine eternal soul, ending your life here in this physical world means you still continue on, albeit in another form because energy can never be dissipated. It only changes form. We all come here into the physical realm to learn various soul lessons as well as to experience things in physical form with our 5 (or 6) senses. Perhaps the lesson is to love yourself first, to forgive yourself most graciously and to be your own advocate instead of relying upon external things or people to bring you satisfaction and joy. We must do that for ourselves. Also, try to stay present in that when we keep replaying the past over and over again or we project uncertainty and doubt into the future it causes us to lose the appreciation in the present moment as well as the many miraculous ways things that are occurring at that present moment in time. When replaying the past or projecting various scenarios into the future stop yourself and become/focus on where you are at that moment (ie in the car or in the living room) then look around and note 3 things that you see and remind yourself that at that moment you are safe. Do that as often as you need to to retrain your thoughts from replaying or foreshadowing things. Also, start to become aware of things that you’re grateful for, even things you take for granted. Once we begin to feel genuine gratitude for things in our life we begin to have more things to be grateful for. The universe works like an echo, whatever energy you put out it mirrors back to you more of the same. I genuinely hope this makes sense to you and that it helps in someway but sending much love and hugs your way too.❤️🤗

I understand what you mean, but thats overly simplistic. Not all suicides are equal. If youve been diagnosed with a disease that will eventually kill you in a long, drawn out process, thats not a "short term problem". The suicide in that case is avoiding the impending suffering.

Not every drug works for everyone,so get the screening tests- Avoid the drugs with permanent side effects, like lithium.

I have persistent depressive disorder and it literally is a part of me. I was diagnosed with it back in 2010 though I've had it for longer. I tried taking pills for it but I hated it so I just learned how to cope and live with chronic depression. Life is a struggle but I just keep pushing forward and learn to enjoy the little things.

Then I watched him pass away as I took care of him in hospice during hurricane harvey! Lost everything... But that bottle eased my pains and worries.... Now remarried and lost my job and he emotionally fell apart after we got married 6 months ago. His wife passed away... So we have struggled to beat addiction. This is a Great Segmant! Thank Y'all So Much!!

Things that can help someone when they're suicidally depressed: 1) Not saying "you should talk to someone" when the person is talking with you 2) Not making the person feel like a burden 3) Financial help, if they need it, if their depression impairs their ability to work, which most likely it will 4) Asking them if they want to go out/do something - and continuing to ask this (without pressurising) - because one day they might say yes and this could be life-changing for them 5) Helping book them in for a salon/hairdresser/dentist appointment if their depression has begun to lead them to neglect themselves. Or helping them clean their home. Again, ask them if they want to help with this and keep asking, until one day they might say yes. At first it's likely they'll refuse help as they may think they're a lost cause. But something as trivial as getting their hair washed after weeks/months of neglect, or living in a tidied up room, could make so much difference to how the person feels and help start to change this mentality. 6) Not making the person feel guilty for being depressed - it's bizarre how many people use this tactic and think it'll help! The above are just a few things, off the top of my head, that I wish people had done for me when I first became suicidally depressed. I was left to kind of fester in my depression, which led to it getting much, much worse, before I eventually started making efforts to recover, recovery being that much more difficult as a result of it first worsening. But I've been trying to recover all the same. One day at a time. Wishing anyone going through depression the best.

It’s ok for us to feel and express… and even more important to have a buddy system with a friend because one friend can make a huge difference…. And sadly just cause you have a spouse doesn’t mean they’ll help you.

R.I.P to a legend. Lost one of my best friends when he shot himself. I had guilt for a long time because we had a fight 2 weeks before he did it. All the signs where there and I felt I failed him as a friend. I still wish I would of did more, but you can't blame yourself. If anyone out there is going thru this please know that things can and will get better. Reach out and let your closest people how your feeling. Realize that the pain your feeling can be fixed. Don't leave your loved ones in pain after you decide to take your life. If you can go out and help others do it. it helps me to be of service to other less fortunate. Spread love and change can happen. R.I.P to one of the best friends a guy like me could of asked for Luv and miss you BIG NOSE everyday. R.I.P. TO SCOTTY "BIG NOSE" BARRETT

With depression it really drains any enjoyment of anything, even the small hope of of a better future it feels like it’s telling you the truth that it’s meaningless and hopeless, and then there’s a lot of fear to even change because it’s like a fundamental part of you that when you think about a life without it you question if it’s actually truly you or just someone forced to be happy.

Thanks for the video! I lost my father, brother, sister-in-law, and both grandfathers to suicide. I was too young (12) to do anything for my grandfathers, and it was kept very quiet. The day before my father did it, I told him I loved him and was excited to see him the next day: we were going to see him and my mom for breakfast. He gave no indications that he was suicidal, though he did have good reason to be. He was always deeply melancholy and rarely spoke to me anyway. His suicide ripped my world apart: I barely knew my father and now I never would. My brother's first attempt wasn't obvious: he ran his motorcycle off of the road in Las Vegas and was in a coma for three months. It seemed an accident. But he recovered quickly, returned home and succeeded about 6 months after he was released from recovery. I'd had a conversation with him the day before. He seemed down. I said, "Bro? Are you okay? You're not thinking of going out like dad did, are you?" "No, Tee!" he said. We talked for a while longer. We had a good conversation, undistorted by my mother's manipulation, for we'd both cast her out of our lives. When we were finished with the conversation, he said, "I wish we could have talked like this all of the time." I said that I agreed and looked forward to more. The next day, his wife called to tell me he was dead from an overdose. And then she (my sister-in-law) killed herself, too, after taking every pill she had in her house and drinking herself to death. There was no reaching her: she was so detached from reality by this point. I was, too. These latest three suicides happened between 2001 and 2005. I will say that the burden that suicide places on the still-living is unimaginable. Each time it felt like the universe opened a hole and swallowed me entirely, and there was never time to even try to move on from the last one before another, and another, and another suicide. I can't see "recovering" from this, from suicide after suicide of so many important people in my immediate family, to suddenly go traipsing through the Cult of Happiness's exuberant flatulence, hoping to get high off of the fumes of apparent Jungian bliss that so many claim comes easily to them, but instead I find ways to transmute the experience into something useful, if not for me, then at least perhaps for someone else. I struggled with depression growing up; what I experience now is psychotic depression. I won't deny that my "special tea" made from of psilocybin and cannabis provide the kind of "cast" that Ari discussed. In fact, Joe Rogan, your discussions figured heavily in my research and final decision-making process to try psilocybin, so thank you for being so open about your experiences. Intentional, compassionate listening, without platitudes or advice, can help some people, but there are some who cannot be reached, and that's no one's fault. I can tell you that *tough love is not the way to go*. Do not play with a suicidal person's emotions. Be nice. Listen. Don't interrupt. Don't give advice. If they want to talk, let them talk. For example, in 2011, I crashed my car in my own suicide attempt. After being in the hospital for a couple of days, my mom called and asked me, "Where should I send the razor blades so that you can finish the job right?" (Like I said, my father had good reason to commit suicide. This is normal behavior for my mother). The three days I spent in the hospital on 1-to-1 observation, having the chance to talk and grieve with someone, did more to soothe my nerves than all the previous years of therapy. Here's a little bit more on my general take on suicide and how I deal with it: www.quora.com/Why-do-people-call-others-selfish-because-they-want-to-kill-themselves-and-apparently-betray-their-family-Wouldnt-they-be-selfish-because-they-are-trying-to-force-someone-to-suffer-by-living

Word. The best advice I could give to people, especially men, is to CALM THE F*** DOWN. Seriously. Most things in life are actually not a big deal, but we CHOOSE to make it a big deal. You lost your job? Thats scary, sure, but you can always get another job. You lost a relationship? That sucks, but there's 7 billion people in the world, so you can always find someone else. You lost a family member? Again, that sucks, but they wouldn't want you to be sad, they'd want you to be happy. You have a terrible family or friend? Then get away from them. etc. The most difficult aspect about suicide/depression is that we place our happiness and our fate in other peoples hands, and let them decide what happens to us. Once you realize that YOU are in control in how you feel and where you're life is going, then you can start to heal. Don't get bogged down in worrying about what other people might think, just focus on yourself. Especially if you're a parent, or someone responsible for a friend/family member. You can't take care of others, if you don't first take care of yourself.
