Edit: Lol @ them blaming the game.

Gravechylde I remember hearing a guy killed himself because his "girlfriend" on starcraft broke up with him. damn son, someone needs some perspective. i bet in another couple years theyll have rpg-rehab centers. EDIT: no wait, d&d has been around for 20 or 30 years, people have gotten mentally addicted to that, and no "rehab"... i guess they're all just screwed.

Eh, let them kill themselves. If you kill yourself for anything associated with a video game, then hey, I guess you weren't meant for this world.

This one kid went after his sister with a knife and assulted his family because some guy completely thrashed his character. The woman who was helping him recover was talking to hima bout the game because her buyfriend palyed it. In the end, it was her boyfriend who had repeatedly killed the kid's charcter and brought on the breakdown.
