Because a lot of times, people who are on the outside don't understand it nearly as well as someone who is suffering from it. No matter how many books someone reads, its always hard to understand.
In my ignorance, I've always associated suicide with depression, that they go hand in hand. But I recently read that they arn't the same, that one doesn't cause the other and that they are separate things on their own.
That wasn't meant to offend. I said 'weird' off the cuff, for lack of anything better to say.
