And turning off the TV and unplugging from the net would probably help all of us, regardless of our perceived mental stability. Seriously. The constant bombardment of negativity isn't good for anyone. Least of all anyone already fighting issues.

Boom.. exactly what I was thinking..
Soy is a food filler.. think rice in Taco Bell bell burritos
Soy is like like nuclear waste to men.. it will drive men’s estrogen through the roof, which high estrogen will drive your testosterone way way down.. diet very well could cause chemical imbalance

Yep... years ago I started getting physicals every year. I found out my testosterone was bottomed out ! I did not realize it because it isnt an overnight thing.
First it was using a gel on my arms and stomach daily after shower. That brought it up some but not Enough at all .
So now, every two weeks i take injection in my hip. Wow !! What a difference !!
It comes back after a couple weeks so it comes on strong ! Lol.

Unfortunately I think it's prevalent. And most ppl don't want to confront it or talk about it. Especially the ones who are suffering.

I can't offer any help or advice. I've had brief bouts of depression in my life but nothing that would make me actually do something to check out. Always had some idea that things could and would get better if I put forth some effort, besides, I knew it would kill my parents so that was never an option anyway.

About 14 years ago I was suffering intolerable pain abdominally and had to regularly visit the ER in Chicago for morphine. It was the only thing that relieved the pain. That's about the closest I've personally come to punching my own ticket, but making some changes in diet and attitude (less worrying) relieved the painful episodes. I completely understand why someone suffering physical pain would check out but I don't think I'll ever be able to understand emotional or mental anguish being sufficient cause.

That opioid stuff can change you drastically in as little as a month . Pain & Addiction aint no joke ! It can take the strongest willed man and turn them into an unrecognizable shell of what he used to be.

I'm sorry for your loss. While I am no expert. I will save the armchair quarterbacking for those more qualified. All I can do is offer up a prayer.
