Whether you&#8217;re homeless or if you&#8217;re rich, this illness is taking people out on a regular basis. The government has pulled most of the funding into mental health research, and as a result, people are still ignorant about it.<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>Education is everything. And the more people talk about depression, the more need there&#8217;ll be for education, and the more people will want educating about an issue that doesn&#8217;t just affect the people suffering from it, but it affects everyone around them. <\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>And when someone is in a desperate position and their hope is taken away, then they&#8217;re at the mercy of an illness that wants them dead.
