i guess we never know what ones capable of im glad theres ds for people to get help meet friends and hug each other it helps to talk oxox hugs

i wouldnt hurt any one especially like that....but i do understand how someone could feel so hopeless and desperate that they would do anything to end the pain....but i dont understand how someone can take a strangers life....i guess you would have to be completely psychotic and unaware of your actions....

it is so sad and my heart goes out to all the families.....its such a bad time of year for alot of us and for this to happen is too much to cope with...

Well... my depression kind of has anger in it. I think people are the main cause of my anger... they've treated me horribly, shut me down, ect. So I can feel why someone would do that...

I couldn't let myself do that though...
Like... innocent people.

I don't know about the guy in Omaha, but the shooter in VA wasn't just depressed - he had a psychotic break, and went off the deep end! thats a whole lot more than being depressed. So no, I don't worry about hurting others because of my depression - myself maybe.

lots of us here have anger issues....the thing is to get help for it so that things dont get out of control...maybe some anger management would be a good thing for you....i know that most people are not thrilled about these classes, but they can really help....

What I don't understand is why these people feel the need to hurt others instead of themselves.

no i wouldn't be that stupid

there has been far too many tragic instances like this, high school shootings now the shopping mall......where is it all going to end ? more medical help must be made available to needy people, regardless of the cost. depression is a serious illness and needs to be treated as such.

lil ,THAT i agree
