Suicidal Feelings and Social Justice

I was shocked to find out that Will Hall has still occasionally felt suicidal - Will Hall, the hero. Internationally known expert, consultant and teacher. Who had been diagnosed with schizophrenia and beat it, and is living without meds.

Watch on Youtube:

Will Hall: Suicidal feelings and social justice 

And this is a longer audio version of similar topic, from Berlin.

For him, suicidal feelings or thoughts don't mean giving up on life, but feeling desire for change and a hopelessness/powerlessness about that change. The feelings/thoughts are a messenger to change something. And more hope/empowerment is needed. Plus connection with people one can talk with. (Without fearing consequences of being hospitalized or such.)

I was missing more on social justice and connection with poverty and such, he does say there has been a connection and that we likely need a revolution. :) Also, a different way to treat people with such thoughts.

I was suicidal as a teen, but am soo glad I didn't go through with it, cause I'd miss soo many great things that have happened!
