She may have weighed maybe 90-100 lbs. No s**t there wasn't any sign of a struggle. If someone was alone with her and wanted her dead, it wouldn't have taken much.Poor girl. :(
Lots of supercilious ****s in this thread. Hurr all supermodels snort coke and have a two-bit intelligence hurr. I don't know who she is and she isn't notable so who cares hurr I fap now. George Carlin's death wasn't notable to me, you didn't see me on the comment page discrediting him.If you don't like it don't digg it. That's what I did.
Here is my problem... western medicine while yes does help is usually NOT a permanant solution to problems. NOT at all. Also I don't think feeling sorry for suicides is a great way to prevent people from having them. Suicide is quiting... if everytime someone quit something we said "oh man it must have been really hard for them, they had it rougher than anyone else" there would be a LOT more quiters. Now don't get me wrong I don't condemn people who THINK about quiting... everyone has thought about quiting at somepoint in there life... but that is when you have to step up. When you're going through hell, keep going, right? or you'll never get out.As for western medicine, first of all there is no proof or evidence as to where type 1 diabetes or CD comes from... that is... there is no proof that you are born with CD or that you are born with a suseptability for CD. In fact I would say that there is NO proof that CD isn't more like type II diabetes in which ANY one can get it if put under the right situations and can be cured by healthy means withOUT the use of pills.Second of all My sister was diagnossed (well shall i say the f**kin doctors didn't know what the f**k it was until we visited my aunt who is a nurse and said they should check for it, theres your western medicine for ya) with type 1 diabetes, so i know this very well... giving her insullin without having her practice healthy habbits would kill her... she used to inject the insullin herself and this helped her practice good habbits but then she got an insullin pump to make it easier... guess what... the doctors didn't say that everyone who gets a pump will gain weight because of the change in habbits and that chances are you won't practice healty habbits as much. It is pretty much up the her and the family to make sure she behaves herself when it comes to sugar. In fact I don't know any diabetic person who is good with it. She used to be really bad and use the insullin solely to stay at the right sugar levels... it would go up she'd send some in... then she'd go way low... it isn't without constant attention to her diet and exercise does she stay remotely healthy. In fact the LESS insullin she has to take the better she is.what I am trying to get accross here is that taking pills regularly as a first option is NOT and never has been a good idea. Trying to regulate your bodies imbalances by messing with the chemicals inside is so f**kin rediculous. I don't care if you say they are just inhibitors... guess what that makes your body think it needs to release even less serotonin because it is used to a certain level... I know countless people personally who have at some time used pills to balance chemicals (many for ADD and at least one for CD) and guess what the story has always been the same... they try and get off the pills because they have just had to up the dose constantly... and they were worse of than they were beforeAlso How much do we NOT know of the human body? I think 100 years from now we are going to look back and think that "wester medicine" although better than its predicessors was quite barbaric. You're whole use of scientific reasoning arguement in my mind is bulls**t because sure when your leg is broke and you take pain killers the pain goes away but that doesn't mean your leg is fixed. I'm in no way against science... but I can clearly see when people are pushing something because they have a different agenda. I bet you think weightloss pills are the greatest think since sliced bread too. Guess what those use inhibitors too!I am in no way trying to make people who are considering suicide feel bad... I just think it is a very selfish act of desperation and there are MUCH better options... I think they should definitely seek help... they should definitely talk with a friend or family member. And if this doesn't help they should seek phsyciatric help... however going to the doc right away and getting diagnosed for CD and taking pills is NOT i repeat NOT the best solution... because sure while a doctor MAY want to help you they really don't know you or love you like your family does... in fact no matter how much they do want to help you there is always a dollar sign attatched to these pills. I'm not saying that if after you have tried everything you don't get better not to use the meds but I'm saying they are NOT the first or second or even third option. These pills will be like a crutch and your leg will never get better if you never use it. But the best option is to not let yourself get too deep... if you even feel like you're getting depressed... go outside for a walk around the block... talk to a friend... get some exercise... excercise your brain it needs to experience healthy situations for its chemicals to be healthily balanced.
Clinical depression is a "disease" that doctors can "cure" by prescribing psychotropic drugs that usually make the problem worse. Most of the time they end up getting recalled, but not before windfall profits for our major pharmaceutical companies and kickbacks for doctors who prescribe them the most.
are you seriously all that f*cking shallow? get a grip. someone has died. yes, people all over the world kill themselves too and that doesn't get broadcasted, but that doesn't mean you should treat this suicide and the victim like a piece of dirt. Ruslana's family are hurt, and you are saying stuff like this? wow, you CLEARLY all have hearts..

Though crudely put, there is a nugget of truth there. If she was suicidal, jumping off a building is not the preferred way to go for most young women.

yes, but she just from the 9th floor, that's quite a lot different than the 3rd floor. Think before you speak, jacka*s.
fammmApr 6, 2010
you're both hilarious, making fun of a person who has taken her own life due to culture and arrogant people like you.
