I was just reading in the newspaper a of a nation-wide survey that was recently taken. The question was that out of all of the different nationalities or races which one would you think has the least excuse to be depressed. The majority said white people. Quite a few of the people added extra comments like, "White people are depressed or poor only because they choose to be" and "It a white person comes teeling you that he is depressed or suicidal, don't take them seriously." The surveyer asked why this man had that opinion and he said,"Because they got everything at their fingertips". After reading is, I decided that it was not fair to deny that people have problems and issues just because of race. While it may be true that some has it a little better than others it does not mean that they should just thumb up their nose at them if they are stressed because everyone no matter what race you are has those days. What do you think?

It's like saying rich people have no reason to be depressed.

Money can't buy you happiness.

Neither can skin color.

right. I just hate it when people overlook your issue or situation by saying that you have no reason to feel the way that you do and that you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth, nice home, cars, etc. It does not stop people from commiting suicide. Just makes me sick!

Like Jon says money cant buy you happiness, but poor people may think so. You can give an opinion over who you think would be more depressed, who you think has more right to be depressed but unless you lived as every race in every cla** with variable income from nothing to billions its merely opinion.

Alot of depression is caused by chemcial inbalances in the brain. It does not care who is poor, rich, brown, purple, white, whatever.

That's a bunch of bull s**t, bigotry! "Oh, all white people are rich, powerful, and happy!" WTF, bitches?!? It's like saying black people shouldn't be depressed because they do crack and barbeque chicken all day! Stereo-typical bull s**t! I'm white, have a job, do rap shows, and sell pot to make ends meet. So tell me, what exactly do I have at my fingertips? The ONLY reason I don't worry about depression is because I'm doing what I like to do, if I didn't, I'm sure I would have offed myself by now!


Well lookee f**kin' here, bringin' a pen to a f**kin' gun fight!

The gra** on the other side of the fence is always greener.

If you're poor and depressed, it's easy to think money would fix your problems.

If you're black and depressed, it's easy to think being white would fix your problems.

if your poor and depressed there is a damn good chance that money could fix your problems.


You think when a black person is depressed he wishes he was white? Thats ridiculous.

I never said the latter, and the former is not true at all.

Yada yada yada yah. White, black, yellow get depressed. If not money woes, it's love. If not love, it's sickness. If not sickness is sudden death by auto accident, murder, flood, earthquake, tornado, hurricane, volcano....you name it.

yeah I know i took the black thing out of context. Half the reason poor people are depressed is cause of money problems.

I cant make rent this month, damn either I pay for electricty or a pay for food for my kids to eat. some pretty good reasons to be depressed right there, all are able to be solved with money, and you would have to be poor in the first place to have these problems.
