Quote
Suicidal pain includes the feeling that one has lost all capacity to effect emotional change. The agony is excruciating and looks as if it will never end. There is the feeling of having been beaten down for a very long time. There are feelings of agitation, emptiness, and incoherence. ‘Snap out of it and get on with your life,’ sounds like a demand to high jump ten feet.
