Whether you&#8217;re homeless or if you&#8217;re rich,\u00a0\u00a0this illness is taking people out on a regular basis.

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.\u00a0<\/i><\/div>\n<div class=\"yiv1623923627\"><i class=\"yiv1623923627\">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.
