It seems a truism. How could anything be better than the
best?

 Ah, I'm too tired for this.

My policy in life is that personal happiness is the most important thing.  And I don't let anyone influence this belief.  Now you aren't me.  You might value something more than your own happiness, and you may be willing to let others decide how you should feel.  But i think that if in order to be happy you need to kill yourself, I wont begrudge you that decision, and I wont think any less of you.  But I will miss you.

I don't think it's healthy at all to be advocating suicide as an option

The conversation should be being steered well clear of that topic imo

I disagree, but i won't beleaguer my point.  However I am not advocating suicide, I am advocating the right to freedom of choice, and the pursuit of happiness.  I am just not condemning suicide.

I understand your point and agree it's a valid one, I just don't think it's a good idea to be talking about
it with a depressed person

Yes, but I think that is because you believe that living is more important than happiness, and I don't.

We're trying to listen and where possible, help Cal here though

And as a person who has suffered depression throughout their life I know that discussion of certain negative
topics is not a good idea

I know, but I believe happiness is more important than life, so with that in mind, mentioning the above is both a good idea and helpful.

I guess I lied about not beleaguering my point.

It's like say the music of Radiohead - that stuff scares me as it's so f-ign depressing

It's good, but I know that listening to it will make me feel things are hopless and nihilistic - ie it takes you to an unhealthy place

How can you possibly know how any advice you give to people might be interpreted or used?

Therefore isn't it a good idea to be as responsible when giving that advice as possible?
