RE: IMPORTANT - EVERYONE SHOULD READ THIS! THE MUSIC INDUSTRY IS COSTING TOO MANY LIVES !!

HI davood,

I hear what you're saying, but i do know a lot about fighting the thoughts of suicide, i battled with it for 20 years. I am not offended by your comments, i appreciate them, its all good. While its true that people need to fix themselves and its in the mind, the main focus of my post was that there are many younger people in the music industry and trying to get in who are not equipped with the skills of dealing with the battle of depression nor are their families. And yes it is a illness, it makes one dysfunctional in society and in life generally, it is crippling and destructive to one's perspective and their outlook on life, i know this because i have lived it for at least 30 years.

By bringing the issue out for sharing and discussion its another step forward to building a framework that people can use for support rather than feeling lost and alone. To do nothing and not offer support is a terrible result. Having a support network helps people understand the various causes of depression. So this post is about how the industry can cause many people focus on the wrong goals of why they do music. East west doesn't matter, there will always be evil in humankind, but if we continue to do nothing then it only gets worse. An old quote says, "all it takes for evil to success, is for good people to do nothing". Well i have to do something and it starts for me with a post like this. If i fail then at least i tried.
Cheers mate.
