    Call me stupid; being in relationship, asking for a pinch of support, before commiting suicide I wanted to bring to the end our relationship wit person, who was always in bad mood. When she left, leaving all her furniture in my flat, I was a little bit better, because I started to work on myself; walking for 10 kilometers every morning, doing what I love to do, watching what I love to watch and spend beautiful moments with my daughter. Ex spouce new, my parents new..about my wish for suicide... That fathers touch moved me itno crying... I had people around me, who even helped me to donext step into death. Now, after a year,I'm alone. Went through deppression and embraced it. Next year I'm going out from this flat... I'm not thinking about death so much, just seeing it's present. If not having support from others, we still have self. But for others...doors are closed. I can open the doors if they knock on ... I did a lot for years, to come closer to them, to hugh them, to tell them "Thank you!".... I showed and said... I'm done now. Don't blame anyone...I know they couldn't do more because they didn't know how. I'm OK now.... but I'm not affraid to live nor die. I know I can die today but...I choose to live another day. Call me stupid, but till today in 7 months I took care for ex spouse and paid 2.000€ , to my parents 2.000€ and for my daughter 2.000€ of yearly child support. Tomorrow I'm happily to pay additional 700€ to ex spouse, what she "gave" to me. I know how it is to live without money... I just choose to set, what I have to pay and now... I'm living day by day. Today's another beautiful day so...have a walk, talk to stranger, have a coffee, look at ducks swimming in the river, listen to the sounds of nature...just BE. ❤

    I don't really feel that it represents depression accurately, if that's what it's trying to do. These people were depressed because of outside circumstances. Whereas depression makes you feel hopeless, despair and melancholic without any outside influence. Outside influence can worsen the depression, but depression comes from within. If it's because of something that happened it's just sadness or grief, not depression. People dealing with depression have incorrect thinking and beliefs, either because of trauma or Chemical imbalances, so reaching out to them isn't just gonna make them better. They need serious professional help. This short film was in my opinion inaccurate and shallow in regards to it's representation of depression. It lacks depth and sustenance.

    Thank you for bringing awareness to another aspect of humanity that goes unnoticed until it's to late. Within my experience in life,now leaning into my mid-70s. My times serving on a suicide intervention line, the suffering all seems to be linked to ignorance. Not truly knowing who I am, who another is and where they begin and end compared to me. Taking things too seriously or not taking things seriously enough. Not being armed with the communication skills to even explore these areas.. It has been said by some, "education is power." it would be sad to kill a stranger and think it is you.. For all out there please don't give up 5 minutes before the miracle. I have found that my feelings are not facts. In time to understanding comes. Mercy

    Such a powerful film. All these people at different point in their lives, all of them having just lost hope or the will to go on. All of them just...having had enough. Then David, seconds from death with his mother desperately searching for him, has his father put his hand on his shoulder, say his name and just say: "David...son...it's okay". I couldn't stop crying. Then you see all of them reaching out to get the help they so desperately need... We really, REALLY need more work like this out in the world. Anyone who doesn't understand how Depression and other mental illness can drive you to horrible extremes and terrible dark places needs to see this, badly.
