Suicidal Ideation, Physical Heatlh (+, surprisingly) 

It's weird. When I was down, I'd all but pray for a terminal disease, so that it would spare me the effort and my family the pain of enduring the void left behind when someone loses the battle with the black dog.

But now I am at risk of developing a disease that could contribute to a heart attack or a stroke if left unchecked, and if I ignored, could kill me if left unmedicated. And I changed my entire dietary habits overnight, and I'm exercising twice as much, and I've lost a considerable amount of fat-based weight.

That story about the people who jump off the Golden Gate Bridge is true. The ideation really does leave you when it thinks it's done its job.
