Addiction isn't stupid, because it's involuntary.
Taking heroin in the first place was the stupid part.
And I doubt most people have experienced depression. I'm sure they've been sad or down a few times, but most people don't know the meaning of the word.

this is some good ass about face logic.
by this reasoning, someone who takes a drug once is stupid but someone who continues to abuse it over time isn't.

Well it depends on the drug, because I think some can make you addicted from the first time, and addiction is ridiculously hard to kick, of course. Addiction isn't stupid; refusing to get help, or choosing not to, that's stupid.

there are different levels of depression.
let's say there's 1000 different grades of depression.
maybe depression 10 is when you're boyfriend hasn't called for a week.
maybe depression 700 is when you are in cataclysmic debt from which you will never recover.
find me the person who doesn't think they've experienced a form of depression and i'll show you a liar.

Thusly is my point, people don't realise how extreme an emotion depression actually is. Real depression is not your boyfriend isn't calling. Going on your scale, I'd say that only about 700 or 650 upwards is genuine depression.
Rather Confused:
For a lot of people getting help isn't as simple as "hey guys, a little hand here?" "POP" "Ah thats better, I sure am cured of that crippling mental illness!"
Anyways back on topic, I'm rather torn on the issue. I go to anything worth supporting that comes through here and have recently even started buying shirts and the last few months. I spend nearly all of my disposable moneys on cds or tickets but I will NEVER buy from a major label. They have proven themselves the bad guys and it would be morally wrong to support them. In a way this makes me a little sad as there are a fair few decent bands I'm never going to have in my hands and will have to cope with crappy mp3'ness.
Jedit:
--- Quote from: tommydski ---saying that only extreme cases qualify as depression is assumptive folly.

No, actually it's psychiatric diagnosis - something you clearly know fuck-all about.

I'm afraid that reads to me as 'I have some principles that I refuse to go around, and it sucks!'
Screw your principles. Buy the CDs you want to buy.
