Better off... Dead?

Fantastic movie, by the way!!

I can't stand hearing things like "you're better off", "don't worry, everything happens for a reason" or "aren't you glad you found out now, instead of down the road?"

I don't understand why everybody feels the need to say things like this.  It isn't comforting.  It isn't helpful.  It doesn't fix anything.  Why bother?  It's just... redundant.  Right now, I don't feel better off and I'm not seeing any kind of a stoopid reason why...

I think the most comforting thing I've heard yet, has been something like "I know you hate your life right now. I'm going to guess it seems like it will never improve. I can't make it better and even though I know things will get better it isn't going to help to have me tell you that it is. So about all I can do is distract you."  (Thanx Jared)


Believe it or not - I think the last 6 months have been full of one distraction after another.  Some for the best and I'm sure some.... for not.  But the way I see it - a distraction is just that.  And every little bit helps!
