Unbelievable

Suffered with depression for years and still take medication for it. I have no shame in admiting that or admiting I've been in a very bad place at times. I see both points but unless you've been there yourself who are you to say its cowardly ? It has to be the most misunderstood illness out there and ignorant people who know nothing about it need not say a word ! I too have lost a mate through it so those who feel the need to mock other peoples misfortunes need to rap up.

got a phone call from my mam one night 8 years ago telling me that she thinks my brother who suffered from terrible depression was dead in his bed, rushed around mams house ran upstairs and started to give him mouth to mouth and pumping his heart don't know how long i was doing this for but my wife pulled me off him saying he,s gone he,s gone, totally devastated my family and me that's what suicide does breaks the hearts of the living,so i think its time now to close this post.

Devastating thing for anyone to deal with.

Have to agree now this post needs to be closed down its a fishing forum or so I thought but it's turning into something else

All valid points lads it takes more courage to overcome your afflictions rather than give up in my opinion i just dont agree with taking u own life i know a lad killed himself a year back 20 year old 2 kids hung himself over a woman i just find that if people with far worse afflictions dont give up and continue to overcome. Day to day ****e we all endoure at some point in life like me granny used to say you never know what a new day may bring

Was it essential to clean up a bit fish guts if someones life was in danger? No in my opinion i would have left any cleaning until the emergency was dealt with!

Was thinking the same thu there mate... Must have been the guts from a monster catch to prevent the lads getting out! Either than or it's the typical "wrong type of guts on the line" haha.

It does my head in though... Seriously how hard is it to lob them into the sea?

I deal with people with mental health issues everyday at work and agree that some people are more able to deal with issues than others. Medication doesn't seem to help a great deal in a lot of cases as already mentioned. A lot of people are dealing with mental health issues and can lead a day to day normal life. I don't agree with suicide (wife's father took his life) and I can say the effect on the remaining family and friends is truly devastating but I can't imagine the size of the balls needed to do it...
