      Suicide is preventable, but not selfish. Suicide is, normally, death caused by depression. The final symptom. A collapse under unbearable weight exacerbated by circumstance. Suicide is a tragedy. If you've never been close to that edge try not to judge what you can’t understand.

      The way to NEVER get depression or have any suicidal thoughts is to indulge in vigorous aerobic exercise. Depression & suicidal thoughts are the result of damaged minds. The heavy blood flow & extra blood in those who exercise aerobically feeds the mind & keeps it healthy IMO.

      Depression can be a chemical imbalance in the brain. Exercise helps you cope, but is not a cure or a way to avoid it.

      I think so many of these chemical imbalances and fears etc can ultimately be linked to poor blood flow. The resulting oxygen starvation causes all sorts of problems. Most people cannot and do not exercise at the level needed. Thus they cannot relate to the benefits.

      Here’s a study that showed suicide rates for college athletes is lower than that of the general and collegiate population. (Speaking for myself I cannot relate to any of these thoughts of depression and so on. It is like someone speaking a dialect from another planet.)pic.twitter.com/pwRoVJSr1X

      Can’t agree with you from personal experience. Studies are only as relevant as the way they were conducted and how they were interpreted

      This ‘study’ was just a count and a comparison, about as straightforward as you can get. The proof is conclusive, a 90+% reduction in suicide rates relative to the general population. I will guarantee that this is better than any drug.https://twitter.com/shaneforbes/status/1228852460074213376?s=20 …

      People always underestimate the benefit of (vigorous aerobic) exercise. Here is an truly excellent example. Suicide rates (ages 18-22, per 100,000): gen’l pop: 11.6 students: 7.5 athletes: 0.9 <— stunningly low pic.twitter.com/FwSo76HQor

      You haven't mentioned other things that student athletes might have like camaraderie, scholarships, dietary programs, parental support, varying stress levels, or other factors. At this point, admitting you don't know and then continuing to talk is worse than just shutting up.

      It's even simpler than that, he most likely just has the causation backwards He hasn't even considered the possibility that maybe the reason very few elite athletes seem to be depressed is that depression makes it difficult to become an athlete

          Very few basketball players are less than six feet tall, therefore if I begin playing basketball I will immediately grow

          He's talking about NCAA student-athletes, not just people who generally exercise, so immediately hits conclusions are suspect Varsity athletes are a gatekept category - you can't just choose to become one, you have to be good enough at a sport to make the cut
