"Eternally Lost" Reviews/Comments [ 2 ] | Reviewed By: GrayPheonix [MediaMiner Member] On: February 08, 2007 14:15 CST Comment/Review: I have suffered depression, and I have contemplated suicide. One word does not describe how painful it is a feeling to want to take your own life. It is only my regrets, and my wish for a future, that have kept me anchored to this world. Sounds shitty, but I know how it is. I have only one thing against suicide, and that is that it take away the times, the choices, one could make in a long life, by shortening, and ending one's life. And really, it's when you're most alone, when no one will talk to you, or you can't talk to anyone else, that you see how true this is. When you're alone, it is too easy to fall into a well of despair. Still, I am impressed by this fic, a definite keeper. Keep on the good works, and the messages of regret, so people listen before they make a choice they'll regret.

As I have not experianced it first-hand, I cannot even imagine the pain of losing a loved one to suicide-less so that of someone who is contemplating suicide. Your story painted a pitchure of Ryoga's depression that is very different from Takahashi's humerous potrayal of it. Also, thank you for sparing us the anguish of seeing one of Ranma 1/2's more lovable characters take their own life. Akari is truly the kind of person Ryoga needs, the kind of person every one who is contemplating suicide needs-one who will be by their side and hold tightly when they are about to fall. If someone I care about has reached the edge, I hope I can be the anchor that keeps them from going over.
