While most people are just a little depressed about their weight and use a weight loss supplement to cope with it, or they are depressed about finances and decide to get an extra job. Some people get to a point that they just can't take it at all anymore and contemplate suicide.
What's odd about this situation? For some reason a person thought that they were going to tell Demi Moore they planned on committing suicide through Twitter.
"Getting a knife, a big one that is sharp. Going to cut my arm down the whole arm so it doesn't waste time," said the message sent to Moore by a user of the social networking site.
"Hope you are joking," wrote back Moore.
"Gbye...gonna kill myself now," the woman responded.
If you spend enough time on the internet it seems hard to take this kind of thing seriously. People say things such as this quite often to get a rise out of people, or to get a couple laughs.
Apparently this wasn't a fake cry wolf post. A San Jose police spokesman said the department had received a number of calls from Twitter users about the suicide threat and sent officers to the 48-year-old woman's home.
Moore's husband, Ashton Kutcher, Twitted his congratulations.
"Wifey reported a suicide attempt based on a...tweet she got and saved someones life. The woman is in the hospital now."
Publicity stunt, or real deal? You make the call ;).
