> Hmmm...I'm just wondering, is it normal to not be bothered by stories about suicide? (both real and fictional)
Is it normal to crave information about suicide and think that it is romantic?

It's hard to say what's *normal* I'm sure if most people's inner worlds were exposed, much of it would seem strange to others. I would say I think it's nieve to think of it as romantic.

I don't know if it's normal or not, but I've done it.

> Is it normal to experience a "high" when reading info about methods? I love it so much.

I don't think it's healthy, I'll say that.

That all depends on your reason for posting, if you sincerely want feed back I don't think it's innapropriate. I personally could have done without without the smileys, it is a topic which has affected many of us, it would be appreciated if you treated it with the seriousness it warrants.

> Is it normal to LIKE being depressed? I find I actually MISS being depressed/having dark thoughts when I'm happy. I love being suicidal!

Depression is the absence of pleasure, if you enjoy being "depressed" then you are not. It is also possible to have suicidal fantasies without being clinically depressed.
