Cool Possible cure for suicide ?

November 14, 2003

Titled: Possible cure for suicide ?

Text: This "system" should only be considered BEFORE carrying-out that act which gets performed successfully by roughly 20% of those diagnosed with Bi-Polar Disorder. No cure has yet been considered for those who wish to apply this "afterwards":

Whenever the suicidal thoughts begin to take over my entire being, I remember to take two (2) movies off the shelf (and watch them) ~ specifically:

1) Love and Death (Woody Allen - 1975)

and

2) The Meaning of Life (Monty Python - 1983)

After watching the aforementioned movies, I have usually utterly stopped taking myself and my existence quite so seriously, and can focus on more pertinent issues, like "should I donate my liver ?" (just kidding, I think ?) ~ or as the song says - "... So Mrs. Brown, when you're down... just remember that you're living on a planet that's evolving and revolving at 900 miles an hour... (etc...)"...

Having said that, I will now vanish and banish myself, in the method appropriate to conserve universal disorder !!!

My problem was always that if I'm depressed enough to be suicidal I'm generally curled up in a fetal position and too depressed to function enough to start the VCR...
I always had to wait it out, pray that the meds (and time) held out until I felt better.
Chmical imbalance for me never responded to humor but personally I don't see why laughter, which triggers a chemical reaction of it's own, can't play a part.
Play it straight kiddo.

Yeah, that font kinda gives it away. Along with the strange jokes, meaning your liver idea.

Laughter is totally the best medicine. I like watching What About Bob because it means that there are other "crazies" out there like me and it is a hell of a lot of fun to drive psychs nuts! Bwa haha! I highly recommend seeing that movie if youve never seen it, it's really funny.
