Owen Lowery doing a Q & A at the 2009 Cleveland Film Festival. 
This weeks episode of Glee made me think of the documentary Owen was showing at the festival called “An Alternative to Slitting Your Wrist”.
Personally I never saw suicide as an answer, but in case anyone following me ever has or just needs a little something positive to think about, please watch the trailer to Owen’s film.  I think its a great idea for people to do, even if they aren’t depressed.  And if you get a chance to watch the film I highly recommend it.
