Anger is a pretty common reaction to suicide. Rog was Frank and honest there nothing wrong with that.

Chim Richalds · « **Reply #301 on:** May 30, 2019, 10:22:20 AM »

I think Rog is a severely depressed person as well.

rog w/ the thorn in his side. how can we look into rog's eyes, still we don't believe him?

morningcommute · « **Reply #303 on:** May 30, 2019, 10:28:42 AM »

It’s s very common reaction. There’s no need to dig rog out about it.

Miss that shit and move on.

meadowsoprano · « **Reply #304 on:** May 30, 2019, 10:35:23 AM »

how anyone can have any reaction except complete sadness for how down and depressed raemers must have been completely baffles me. the poor lad must have felt so alone, sad and lost and bagley’s initial reaction is anger. so weird to me.

Fongstarr. · « **Reply #305 on:** May 30, 2019, 11:05:43 AM »

Suicide is just controversial and too hard to convince the other side that they are right or wrong. Some people just never experienced deep depression and would never in a million years to think to commit suicide. But people that have felt ultimate sadness can agree that those feels suck and just eat in your insides to the point that suicide seems almost reasonable.

Rog is definitely on the other side. I always feel like there should be a hierarchie of people complaining about someone killing themselves and that should be Ben's family....not the friend or filmer.

The notion that suicidal people are selfish is a very big factor in stigmatizing mental health issues. I completely understand that Roger is hurt by losing a friend, but comments like that are misguided.

https://www.nami.org/Personal-Stories/Suicide-is-Not-a-Selfish-Act

https://www.nami.org/Blogs/NAMI-Blog/September-2018/5-Common-Myths-About-Suicide-Debunked

https://www.healthyplace.com/blogs/survivingmentalhealthstigma/2016/04/suicide-and-the-selfishness-stigma

I think these pieces explain it better than I ever could. I don’t think Roger should be chastised for his comments, but if we’re really gonna make a dent in the conversation of mental health, I think it’s at least worth discussing. A good friend of mine took her life this past November and I’m still very hurt by it, but I can assure you that no crass anti-suicide rhetoric (as well intended as they may be) will make anybody feel better about what happened.

i was in juvie w/ this kid 25 yrs ago. he killed his parents and little sister because they wouldn't let his gf sleep over. that's selfish. killing yourself is a hell of a thing and hopefully you've explored every option first. i always wish people wouldn't kill themselves but i never think they're selfish because, i've seen real selfishness.
ps Jereme should belatedly give this kid a pro model [he's found allah and has some nutty new muslim name but still locked up]

Yeshhh, I know Roger is hurt and sad about Ben committing suicide but calling Ben a "Selfish son of a bitch" is probably something I would have cut out. Considering Slap is know to be "The worst place on earth" I don't think anyone on the Ben thread said anything like that.
[close]

You guys are taking it out of context. Roger said that his first thought when hearing about Ben's suicide was "You selfish son of a bitch", because he was pissed and hurt.

He didn't go on the show and say "Ben is a selfish son of a bitch for doing what he did".
[close]

I don't think Roger meant to sound that harsh and you can genuinely see that he is hurt from Ben passing away. I liked that they did address it and had a serious discussion about it. All I was trying to say is had they cut that little snippet I think the conversation would have had a different tone overall.

Also I don't know how I would feel about myself if my first thought is "That selfish son of a bitch" to a dear friend committing suicide. Is that a common reaction or something?

I'm not sure how common of a reaction that is (I've never had a good friend commit suicide), but I give Roger credit for at least being honest and telling the other guys what he was thinking, regardless of how harsh it sounded.

I thought it was funny when Steezus, as an attempt to not say SLAP, decided to call us by the reverse spelling, PALS, when that also refers to us.

Or at least that’s the way I interpreted it.

The irony of judging anyone for their reaction to the death of someone they ACTUALLY FUCKING KNEW while you sit here on a thread acting offended for someone you never met in your life is laughable.

You've been skating since 1986 and never once heard of SLAP the mag and website? Or just of its online message board that is now its last wall standing? Not questioning your street cred on the fucking Internet, really just curious. In general I'm kind of into knowing which bits of the culture people either were or weren't exposed to and whatnot.
