Bill3000 should've died a horrible death...

Why? Because he wished it upon another apolyton poster who had problems.

Caesar posted something several years ago about wanting to commit suicide. I was almost the only one there at the site at the time (back when the site was a lot less crowded) and I talked to him in the chatroom. Bill3000 came in and started telling Caesar to go ahead and kill himself... told him that he was a stupid idiot and should get it over with or he'd go and do it himself. On and on with the insults.

Fortunately, Caesar didn't listen to him and is still alive today. Nevertheless, if i saw that punk ass bill3000, I would beat the **** out of him.

"Well, some people are simply 'oversensitive' in my opinion.. that's all"

You still say they are oversensitive even though there is a chemical reason causing the depression? And what exact Sociological research are you using to say that most teenage depression cases are the fault of someone being "oversensitive"? You are just being prejudical and in doing so are contributing to a stigma that makes things worse for the depressed and discourages them from treatment.

"Bill 3000 "turned to Jesus" by the way and he announced that fact here on this forum. "

Well a person's beliefs and social relationship's almost definitely have a role to play in depression. Becoming more involved in religion can most certainly help you during difficult times and can have a psychological benefit. Depression is more then a chemical problem, which is why most of the time therapy goes right along with depression medication. But of course, just because social relationships and such are involved does not mean we should judge the person as weak or such... We also should not assume to be oversensitive or judge them as to whether the causes of their chemical imbalance are valid or whether we should "Let these ungrateful bastards die" as Speer so eloquently put it. We should not assume these people are just whiners who need to deal with these problems. Rather, we should recognize that by Chemical reasons these people are going through great suffering and treat them with love and compassion.

"oh yeah I'd just like to note that to those talking about school system messing people up...

You're pretty thickheaded, aren't you!? Didn't you catch Lincoln's explicit mention of bullying? The point he is making is that it is bullies like YOU that make people depressed.

Congratulations. Lest we forget, when Bill3000 threatened suicide here we had people advising him to go ahead with it.

Let's also remember that Bill3000 had, by his own admission, serious emotional problems at the time. You, on the other hand, say that you don't.

Therefore, whilst claiming complete stability, you've just expressed the wish that another poster dies a horrible death.

You're genuinely horrible, do you realise? You are a bona fide disgrace. I'd love to know if you ever feel any actual remorse for anything.

Given the nature of the things said to AS on this thread, it is fair he able to defend himself with a reply. Bump.

I have many symptoms of social anxiety disorder.

I'm not sure if I really have it. It could explain many of the problems I have with girls. Sure I've had girlfriends, and occasionally they even have sex with me . But for the most part I cannot form any meaningful relationship.

I'm almost fed up to the point of ordering a mail-order bride

But those drugs are nasty, and I don't want to take them. I'll try to find other ways of dealing with my social problems. I'm just a little antisocial.

I read this entire thread, and I'm appaled at the lack of understanding (or even wanting to understand) by some of the posters here.

Crap, I remember that as well

Well I still talk to Caesar all the time on AIM, he seems to be doing well, but he has had one hell of a lot of **** in his life even since that event...
