    Interesting suicide statistic:

    More males commit suicide than females. Could this possibly be due to the fact that men and women are equally emotion, but men are supposed to keep emotions bottled up inside according to society, while women are supposed to express them?

    Me thinks so. Damn you society.

    Its more that men use more sure fire ways of suicide like hanging or shooting themselves.

    Yesterday I had my first physical therapy session. It hurt a little but over all I felt great. Today I am sore as heck. I hope I'm a lot better 3 weeks from now when I go on vacation.

    Just saw NTL's production of Frankenstein for the second time (the two principal actors swap around each night!). It's very rare that something stirs up this amount of emotion from me, but it really really did. It was beautiful.

    I want to hug the Creature so badly :frowning2: that play (and the book for that matter) makes your heart absolutely bleed for him.

    So, earlier (like..earlier this month) I posted about how my grandma had cancer, and that it's unlike she's going to live past 6 months.

    Well, this is my sister's facebook update:
    Now all of a sudden no one in my family will talk to me. So I am freaking out, because no one is answering me! IT SOUNDS LIKE SOMEONE DIED! D:

    If something did happen to her, and I pray that nothing did, this will be the third time someone has died around my birthday.

    I heard that the statistics show that men use absolute killing methods (shooting themselves, stabbing, etc.) while women stick with pills, because it leaves them room to back out of it if they are found in time.

    I heard this a long time ago though, so I'm not sure where and who I heard it from >_<

    Speaking of suicide: what's on my mind is someone who committed suicide in my area because he was bullied for being gay. A few of my friends knew him... It's so sad...
     
  13. Actually I'm pretty sure the reason women use pills or slitting their wrists is because they worry about how their body will look after their gone (for their loved ones, presumably), whereas men don't usually worry as much about that. (Not to be super morbid, but I'm pretty sure I learned that in psych class)

    And that IS sad. I'm sorry to hear that. I had a friend of a friend commit suicide. May have been because he was gay, but we don't know for sure.

    Ohh, yes, you're probably right on that one. It sounds more accurate~

    I'm so sorry to hear about that! Suicide is horrible... People don't know how much they are missed afterwards... It's so awful :'(

    Just have to say yes and yes.

    Someone I liked a lot (and am moving past) is one who I get strong deceptive vibes from. Makes it easier to accept those flaws and move on, though. Don't have definite proof, but I'm not stupid. Some things are just blatant. Like her but can't trust her and dishonesty is a real turn off/kills what feelings I had in that sense.
