Handling sad news

So this isn't directly related to NoFap but it has some connections to all of our lives and daily struggles.

I received some upsetting news today. My uncles girlfriend tried to commit suicide a few days ago and is in the hospital, unresponsive. I had absolutely no idea she was depressed. She is the sweetest women. Very beautiful and has a lot to live for in life. This is a perfect example of internal struggles everyone here is going through. I see guys on the nofap subreddit contemplating suicide often. To them and anyone else who is depressed, just talk to someone. Go out and enjoy the world. Take pleasure in the simple things in life like watching the sunset. Realize that life is free and beautiful. There are glorious things in this world, but over and above all is human connection. So, to all you guys, if you love someone then TELL THEM! Life is too short to be full of so much self doubt. Whether it's to a family member, or a friend, let them know how much you appreciate them. It may be exactly what they need to hear. Anyways that is all from me.


I also would like to thank NoFap for being such a wonderful community. This forum changes lives. I would of never been capable of such deep and meaningful words if I was still fapping to porn. Call it what you want to but I feel so much more alive whenever I am PMO free. Anyways thanks again guys and good luck on your journeys through life.

 

Thanks bud, just sending an update. She has passed away. Appreciate who you've got in your life folks.

 

I had no idea. I always though people who were depressed were just extremely sad. Whether they were lonely or something. Knowing that depression causes one to despise happiness makes me very sad. I appreciate your input and I wish u the best of luck.
