My brother Joe, the Athenian Stranger, returns to discuss mental health, or as he describes it, mental strength. We start with an excerpt from Tim Ferriss' book "Tools of Titans" regarding suicide, and proceed to discuss everything from Nietzsche to the Apostle Paul. Above all else we invite anyone who is struggling with bouts of melancholy and depression to reach out. We promise that your reaching will not be in vain and with all the speed of a lightning bolt from a summer sky your forearm will be clasped in the grip of brotherhood by those men who are brisk and cheerful in their efforts to raise you up. We love you.  Follow Joe on Twitter @Athens_Stranger
