Modern Journalism and Social Media

So i'm thick, and a ****?

@brb you taking note off your little pipsqueak.


Oh and Tobes, **** off you pleb.

 

I know **** all about it mate and am willing to admit it, i am just going off the comments on this thread about bullying by social media.

Did she do it for other reasons?

 

Look, when you have a mental health issue that means you obsess and worry over what the whole world thinks of you do you really think it's so easy to turn off the one thing that tells you exactly what people think?

 

You been on the Grog all day ?

 

Suicide by its nature is an irrational act. If you could think about the repercussions rationally you wouldn't do it, so why would you be thinking rationally about anything else? For all you know he may have thought they were better off without him (irrationally of course).

 

As you might have guessed ... similar for me. I also understand why someone might not.

 

So did she have a mental health problem?

Or are you just guessing because she topped herself.

 

Good post !
I lot of us have probably been closer than we might like to admit.

 

Good points... and I will say that what he did has stayed with me all my life and also influenced my behaviour in the darkest of times.

 

Nah she left this morning to go see you.

 

Ok .
I will wait her arrival with glee

 

You might be thinking of groc there mate

 

WTF?

 

Extraordinary.

 

Hope she brushes her teeth first, and washed her face.

 

16 years ago one of my best mates took his own life. He was single, had no dependents except a younger brother who looked up to him. His father had passed away when he was young. The mum was a control freak and never let him go and build his own life. When he finally broke free, he moved to Vietnam and then Laos and ended up in construction over there. His mum lied and emotionally blackmailed him using the younger brother to get him back. He gave up his life to return and when he discovered what she'd done, something in him must have felt like he would never be free. He was only 28 when he locked himself in his family bathroom and slit his wrists. I remember at the funeral the distinct feeling his mum didn't give a **** except for herself... but I shouldn't judge.

I think you're right, that's stayed with me and influenced me, only because I know he had a lot to live for. Ironically, his name was Sunny.

 

Yeah **** right off.

 

The lad I knew did it by exhaust fumes ... the collateral tragedy / damage was that it was one of the kids who first found him.

 

Oh ffs.

Yeah she was clearly of sound mental health

****ing hell you really haven't got a clue have you
