JK Rowling Confessing to Suicidal Thoughts

I guess if Rowling came out and said that she sought out help for her depression, this would be a positive influence for others who are having suicidal thoughts, to reach out for help rather than taking their own life.  I'm not sure what influence this confession will make though.

I think the more this is talked about the better, depression and suicidal tendencies are hard enough to deal with enough without having to also be scared of prejudgment.

I'm sure it helps when any person who's a known success like JK Rowling talks about depression, because it proves that you can still have a happy productive life even if you do suffer from depression. I don't think it'll solve the problem, but it might bring it more ot the awareness of people.   

Yes she has. Looking of the response of her books, I have to confess that I' m not a fan. But, maybe one day when it just drop to me her books is worth reading. Her confession about suicidal thoughts one reinforced that we are human.  Perhaps she could sponsor  some club or organisation to help people to overcome this stigma.. It is healing crisis for instance we know the value of health -mind and body.

I just ordered the new J.K. Rowling Tales of Beedle The Bard , The Collector's Edition at Busyboo.com and I am so excited about this book. It's a magical, wizarding textbook with metal artwork and exclusive illustrations from the enchanted Hogwarts library – a must have for every Harry Potter fan and definitely worth the price! It goes on sale on Dec. 4 but there are a limited number of copies available, so I pre-ordered my copy knowing this will be the best Christmas gift ever!
