Suicidology

I'd be very happy if we could resurrect the idea of psychache as the starting point of the conversation here. You know the crisis of the self that I talk about is a very painful one, pain is a meaningful word, talk to me about the pain that I experience, don't talk to me about my serotonin levels, that doesn't mean anything to me. And the other one, I just like the word 'psyche' because we need to remember that its original meaning and still its meaning is soul, soul in that sense is about going to our deepest sense of who we are: again, this notion of our sense of self.
