From: Claudia

"Both suicide and addiction speak to a larger question of despair. 
Despair, loneliness, and a search, either temporarily or permanently, 
for a way out.

"[Y]our community is the set of people you could plausibly ask to 
watch your cat for a week, and the people they would in turn ask to 
come by and change the litterbox on the day they had to work late. 
There's nothing like that for addicts, nor suicides, not now and not 
in the past, and in fact that's part of the phenomenon I want to talk 
about here. This is a despair that sticks when there's no-one around 
who cares about you."
