THOSE people who commit suicide are pussies. What about people who just can't deal with this life? Or don't want to? Hell if that's the way they wanna get out of it, all the power to them.

Can't deal with this life? What the fuck does that mean? If you live in a suburban neighborhood and the big let down of your lifetime is that your grandma died and then you lost your job and you got an F in school, then we need to have a talk.

Nothing is life is worth ending it. As long as you're alive, you have something going for you.

I hate how suicide is frowned upon as a cause of death. This whole "suicide is selfish" bullshit makes me mad, because people don't understand why the person did it. They can't get into their minds, their feelings, etc.

Someone who kills themselves should be given the same respect as someone who dies naturally. I used to think suicide was selfish until someone, who was really close to a best friend of mine, killed herself. I didn't know her personally but she went to my school, and there were literally no announcements of it from teachers and shit. The only people who put up memorials for her were her close friends... and I wouldnt've known she had killed herself had these posters and things not been up.

Instantly rumors started spreading about her boyfriend dumping her (a close friend of my friend), resulting in her suicide. None of this was true, of course, and it was probably the last thing on my friends' mind. All they cared about was the fact that their friend was dead, and at no point did they ever blame her death as being selfish.

The worst part was that a year before, some girl died from leaving her oven on by accident. Memorials were all around the school, it was announced publicy, and she was even on the local news.

Maybe suicide isn't a solution for some people, but for others it seems like the only way out. Living for the sole sake of others is no way of living, imo, and if you're not happy with your life you have every right to end it. All I wish is that people who kill themselves are given the same respect as others who die, because in the end it's the same outcome.

I agree with that. Instead of treating it as a such as horribly selfish act, people should just be happy that person no longer has to suffer and move on.

Suffering seems to be a popular word in this thread. Let me tell you something.

Suffering is something that you convince yourself of. Sure, when something really bad happens to you, you feel bad about it, but you need to learn when to recover and move on. Dwelling on these things causes you to believe that nothing is worth living for any more and that your entire life is going to be suffering from now on.

People convince themselves of it all the time and can't seem to get away from it. I've often had suicidal thoughts, but then I realized that nothing (as I said before) could ever justify taking your own life. Do you think that it would be worth putting a bullet into your own head because someone you loved died? Or maybe because you did something completely horrible? No.

I don't want to hear about suffering, emotional suffering, at least. People who live in shitty countries in complete squalor manage to live just fine and I would assume that they suffer 10 times as much as people around here. Don't give me that.

I'm gonna go back to my room and be awesome.

Because no one lives in a situation where their suffering is real and perpetual. They are all just making a big ado about nothing and need to move on.

Suicide is only a last resort if you feel like there's no way out of a problem that can never be solved! Surviving from a suicide attempt is only an intervention!

wtf
if you're a POW and you're being tortured day after day for information, and you're afraid you'll crack, its not selfish to kill yourself

or if you're stranded in the Canadian wilderness and you are uber hungry, and don't want to eat a fellow survivor to survive

You guys are assholes, think of all the people that have committed suicide and read this thread. You're hurting their feelings.

In all seriousness, though. Suicide is more of a mindset than an action. You have to be an emotional train-wreck to seriously contemplate the act of killing yourself. For most normal people, this is a very hard mindset to appreciate, because, when a person is suicidal, he or she is not thinking rationally. Obvious, simple facts get ignored. Common sense goes out the window. Nothing seems worth it. This is because s/he is viewing the world through a lens of depression.

I'm really sick of hearing these little fags bash "emo" kids. You all remind me of the fucking asshole jocks that I use to go to school with.

I don't understand how you kids could think its "gay" to show a little emotion once in a while. The majority of you have never even been in a serious relationship to even know, feel, or understand what it's like to have someone you care about stop caring about you.

All you guys do is let mommy and daddy take care of you, then browse the internet all day and jack off to porn. At least most "emo" kids know what its like to be in a relationship and actually get laid once in a while.

Some of you are going to find out one day that a lot of girls like emotional/sensitive guys and your "I'm not a pussy" and "being emo is gay" attitude isn't going to get you anywhere. If anything it will just make you insecure when there comes a time where you have to show affection for a girl.

Goodluck ever getting laid.

I would bet so much that you've never even gotten close to getting laid.

You're name calling stereotyping response shows your lack of intelligence and experience.

Suicide is like throwing away a game because you have completed it, there is so much more you could do with it.

Thats the fucking retarded metaphor I have ever heard. First off, who throws away games? THERE LIKE 50 BUCKS! Second, what the hell does "there's so much more you could do with it" even mean? Like what, eat off of it? Shove it up you're ass?

I'm too big of a pussy to do it. Cuz I dislike what happens next. It's ether hell or just nothing at all.

Also I think that if there is heaven, It'll be what I like. My own personal heaven that I can invite who I like over. Rather living with these hardcore christians.
