			<description><![CDATA[I guess it's just plain desperate people doing desperate (selfish) things. I really don't understand it.  It is very disoncerting.  I have been that depressed in my life, but I would never want to worry people.  But you know, I probably did.  The pain is just too unbearable.  It's a form of reaching...]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The only thing other than attention seeking is a need to be in contact with someone before being incapable to communicate.People who are suicidal are not necessarily "sane" and as such that's why they are put into protective custody.
