[SCUDSBROTHER]

Retarded people are limited in intellectual or emotional development.

People with Clinical Depression aren't that way. I don't know why anybody would ever use the term "Retard," or "Retarded" in a thread about somebody who had Depression, Anxiety etc. She just said the woman was smart. These diseases are very far apart, and probably the reason Depression is poorly treated is due somewhat to many people thinking it's related to Retardation. It's like comparing a fkn walnut to a bird. The reason people with anxiety/ depression die like this is because of the attitude of the doctors in that society. If there is no pressure on them to do their job, then they simply will not do it. Other diseases are much easier to treat. These people are not a priority to the medical profession(at all.) That's what happens here, too. She wasn't a priority to the medical profession. She got tired of waiting around for them to care. In any other type disease there would be some investigation of her case. I doubt the piss-poor "doctors" she had will even get interviewed by their boss. The worst doctors go to the field that doctors have the least interest in(PSYCHIATRY,) and it's one of the poorest paying(because society cares close to nothing about treating these diseases.)
