Exactly. To say there is help out there, fine. But to arrogantly speak as though you've reached self-actualization, thats what I have a problem with. You'd think Jordon was Gandhi or something the way he talks.
I've done alot of volunteer work at various hospitals and distress centers, ie. the people JORDON turns to. I've had friends come to me in tears speaking about suicide, and through hours of training for suicide prevention, I have managed to get them out of it. I've also had friends kill themselves, including one who I saw hanging from the ceiling. The way Jordon talks, and such little sympathy he has, its clearly evident that he has no idea. He holds psychologists in such high regard, but while some are good, its no guerentee that they're gonna be able to help you. To be able to reach the level of self-actualization, you should be able to understand both sides of the situation. Clearly, Jordon's arrogant egocentricism shows that he has very, very little idea.
Jordon, you're a good kid and all... but when it comes to matters like this, its really a "who would hire a student in the summer?"
