The Blade wasn't shap enough The rope wasn't strong enough The gun wasn't even loaded But my savior was there and ready.
Gerard Way
MCR and Gerard they saved me...for the second time. I go to an extreme Christian school... At school I got in a lot of trouble for saying the Lord's name in vain. They questioned whether I was worthy to call myself a Christian or not. They questioned whether I was worthy of God's Grace and Salvation. I was dropped off at home. My mom called on the phone and tore my insides out. I can't even dream of telling my dad. I laid in my bed ready to take the life that was not 'worthy of salvation'. I stopped to find that my MCR Life on the Murder Scene dvd was still paused from the night before. I pressed play. After watching it for 5 minutes it came to the part where Gerard was talking about his stage of major depression, alchoholism, and Suicide. He was doing a show and said this to the crowd: "If you or anyone you know are suffering from extreme depression, you need to ******** talk to someone! a teacher, friend, parent, I don't care! But wasting away your life on suicide is ******** bullshit!!"
He did it again, for the second time.
Thank you, Gerard.

well done sweety.
Even though I don't know you, I am really glad you are still alive. It's great how Gee does these things for us without even knowing it.
I don't know how to fix your problems, but I am happy for you. You are a strong person.

Keep on truckin', hon. I used to go to a private school (not catholic- episcopalian (sp?), but just about as strict), so I know to a degree what you're going through. Just remember that you always have friends here!

Glad that MCR has yet, saved another life. C: I go to a Catholic school also, and I got in trouble just for saying "heck", because they thought I said "hell". Like WTFZORSZ. The Bible even says the word hell. :/

i've been struggling with an eating disorder for about two years now, this didnt make me...choose recovery, or save my life.
but this one quote
"Hey girls, you're beautiful. Don't look at those stupid magazines with sticklike models. Eat healthy and exercise. That's all. Don't let anyone tell you you're not good enough. You are good enough, you are too good. Love your family with all your heart and listen to it. You are gorgeous, whether you're a size 3 or a size 14. It doesn't matter what you look like on the outside, as long as you're a good person, aslong as you respect others. I know it's been told hundreds of times before, but it's true. Hey girls, you're beautiful." Gerard Way
it just made me feel really good. it shows what an amazing person he is.

Mushroom Flavoured Water's quote from Gerard is amazing! I think that all of the members of MCR can be counted as fantastic role models for young people. 3nodding Plus Gerard is way brave showing us all on the LOTMS dvd how he got over his addictions. MCR saves lives for sure! 3nodding

Awww honey i'm so glad he helped you....look to be honest with you the people at your school....(wont get too indepth on her views on religeon) Lets put it this way I was raised atheist, I mean my mom tried to persuade me to skip my Religeon exam today because i'm sick and she dosn't see it as a valid way to spend my time...But i did go to a christian primary school.
I understand why people believe in God or at least some type of God...they kinda feel like someone loves them...but lets put it this way sugar people who tell you your not worth saving...those people they arn't worth s**t. Tell them to read a bible tell them to look up agapé unconditional love of God for mankind. I'm glad Gerard helped but I want you too know that you should never get upset because sweety I don't even know you, but I know people like them...and those sort of people. There not worthy of you, there not worthy of your time and they weren't worth that doubt in your mind that you arn't a speacil and great person.
People like that they strenghthen by beliefe that religeon is used as an excuse for war and cruelty instead of being used to show love as it should...I kinda get the feeling I wouldn't last 5 minutes with some of the teachers at your school....they may well crucify me and then shout at me because I said crucify....

Good on you hun, I'm proud of you.
MCR does save lives. I think we can all agree on that. I suffer Bipolar, and I go through stages of intense depression. I have gotten to the point where I know my thoughts are getting too ridiculous, and too suicidal to listen to them, so whenever it starts to get bad, I head for my earphones. I also know what you're going through with the school. I went from a Catholic school to a Private, "Grammar" (fancy) school. It sucks s**t.
Good luck, hope you feel better.

Funny you mention bipolar as my friends has that and I just have regular depression we were talking about it once and she said she perfered bipolar because though the lows are very hard to cope with much harder then with my depression the highs are so intense...I just found that interessting...

I was suspended for the rest of the week!
And gounded for 30 days.
My mom took away everything! But the only thing that mattered was MCR. No cds. No dvd. Not even a magazine with them in it. No merch or ANYTHING.

ouch....why is your mom being so harsh....I mean when my parents did that too me its because I wouldn't leave a concert (MCR actually...) when they wanted me too because it wasn't over they didn't see me till 1am and I hadn't bothered getting in touch.
Don't feel bad about it though angel, your school is in the wrong...
