Okay I just gotta climb on my Hamlet soapbox for a second

[iambic5.livejournal.com]

I don't really think that speech (I assume we're talking about 'to be or not to be' here) is about suicide. Or, well, it is, but not only that. ...Let me try to explain better.

Here's how I think of it. Hamlet's basically saying, okay, I've got to do this really dangerous thing that I am probably not going to survive, because the whole point of this play is that if you kill the king you don't get to live afterward. So okay, I'm gonna die. I better get used to it. Heck, it might be better than life. It probably is, life's pretty shitty.
Except.
Except there's this weird thing about being alive that makes you want to hang on to it. Because at least you know what it is. There is something in my soul that says, hey, no matter how much life sucks, don't give up on it yet, there's still stuff you have to do.

So I actually get this speech being comforting in a weird sort of way. Because he starts off trying to rationalize in favor of dying, and then he talks himself out of it.

(...oh lord I hope that made any sense at all. [/hamlet fangirl])

oh also

I have totally used Shakespeare to get me out of depressive attacks, many times in fact. So keep on keepin' on, OP. *hugs*
