Mz, unfortunately feeling like doing this sort of thing doesn't give you any opportunity for such analysis. At the time it boils down to one thought; nothing matters, it just seems like the right (or only) thing to do.
Take it from someone who a few years back spent a whole day looking for something to hang himself with - at the time it seemed perfectly rational, now I look back and think "whaf*ck?" The only good thing is that there wasn't anything suitable and I couldn't bring myself to go out to the shops.

p.s. I'm not getting at you here, so PLEASE DON'T take it personally, coz it's the way society thinks in general, but 'mentally disturbed' can be classed as deeply offensive to people with depression. If you suffer from any illness that is caused by a chemical imbalance you get sympathy - unless it's a chemical imbalance in the brain, when you get avoidance, dismissed or even abuse. Power to the elbow of all charities and individuals who try their best to change this. I hope what Flopsy has shown and what I say here leads EVERYONE to be a bit more understanding towards sufferers and not to think it's "all in the head"
