David L. Conroy Quotes
Despair, Grief, And Depression Are Not Things That People Can Simply Stop, Any More Than Someone Can Will An End To A Toothache Or The Pain Of Withdrawal. Acutely Suicidal People Have Lost All Sense Of Having Power Over Their Pain. To Tell Them To Magically Acquire Will Power Is Like Asking A Crippled Person To Race Against A Champion. It Does Not Help Them Do The Thing In Question; It Just Makes Them Feel Worse.
