Nowadays, people symphatise the sick rather than taking prevention?

Prevention is better than cure..sympathy cannot cure. Prevention is a true concern but symphathy is kind, a kindness that cannot save

@Quicksilver87 as I say sympathy is an act kindness that cannot save
@Sepia I can be sorry and sympathetic they are suffering. I don't have to go buy a bottle or a bag for them.

@Sepia What do you expect them gonna do? Finding cure and save the person you love? We're humans. This is beyond of what we can do.

My mom died 8 years ago breast cancer stage 4.

She never make medical check up until she feeling sick. She never trust doctors. I always want her go to the doctor, she resisted. Until it was too late.

Who's to blame? No one. Shits happen.

Prevention ain't change anything much especially when it is in your gene (I mean the cancer, my family inherit it from my grandmother, she died because of breast cancer too).

@Mamapolo2016 Exactly.

@Quicksilver87 That is true..anything is beyond but as long as they are not yet sick we do have options to get healthy..spending more time with our loveones

@Sepia I feel contradict about it. Sometimes.

@Quicksilver87 btw..in saving love ones..if you can save as you can why not? If a "depressed" loveone trying to jump off the building..you won't save them??? because they wanna die..are you going to support their sick desire? If you really love them, save them as you can..what is impossible is beyond but at least you have done something to keep them.

@Sepia Okay. That's different situation. If she/he wants to kill itself on the spot then yes we try to prevent it happen.

How about something more addicting, such as substances, alcohol and smoking?

I am full aware person yet I fall into all that stuff because I was depressed.

I know that stuff are not healthy but I'm still trying it because I want to ease the pain psychologically.

It is not health option but it is best, for now.

Look, I'm not encourage you doing that my point is some of parts you can do, but some of parts you can't do.

The only person who can save itself from die/destruction is the person itself.

We just able to support our loved one choice or give them some advice and be with them.

I never like that answer but what else I can do to save someone from destroy himself/herself.?

Should I chain him/her? Does it make any difference? I only make him/her suffers even more.

I understand your point but not all things can be saved.
