Lifted Up

The only time you see a depressed person lifted up is when they hang themselves.

Explanation

Experiment

This is a really dark joke, using the literal sense of "lifted up" to describe a person hanging themselves by the neck. It plays on the common image of 'lifting up' as something positive, in contrast to the tragic reality of someone committing suicide. It is an uncomfortable and morbid twist on the phrase.
