Except that it's not. For some people in other parts of the world, it's actually a better option than facing the reality they are forced to deal with or for those born into only suffering. There's nothing areholish about it, even for people in first world countries. People's actions and mental processes are as much effected by their environment as they are their own brain. And for some people, their enviroment is for lack of a better term, "cruel." Suicide isn't as cut and dry as you make it out to be, much like everything else in the world. Everybody has their own set of challenges to overcome, their own problems to deal with. It's not a selfish thing because they don't realize what they're doing. To them, their life is meaningless because they believe x does not care about them, or they as people are worthless. Now, to me, it's only ever a selfish act when they know it would harm someone else. I had so many opportunities present themselves every single I woke up when I was depressed. A car going too fast down the street, a simple drop from a certain angle at the right height. But I realized that I had people around me that cared for me and that if I did ever take any of those options, my act would have been selfish, because I knew what the results would be for others. For some people, this isn't the case.

2 RepliesI tried to kill myself 3 times. Once with a bunch of sleeping meds and a bottle of Jack, just before the world closed I woke up in a pool of vomit and I had a hangover for months. The next time was slicing on my arms, but I didn't hit anything vital so I lived, just a lot of blood. The next time was also sleeping pills/muscle relaxers/no dos/energy drink/Valerian root/meletonin/a few other pills, threw them up too.

Edited by Raw Sugar: 1/1/2014 11:03:04 PMHonestly I think you're a piece of shit for taking this approach. As if victim blaming is going to encourage any positive out comes. You've never actually hated yourself to the point you wanted to bleed out have you? If no, then please just stop talking. People who suffer from suicidal thoughts need to hear from others who overcame it, not people who show as much understanding as yourself. Edit I see you do know what it feels like and I'm surprised that this is the approach you decided to take.

4 Replies[quote]You are not a victim, you are a coward and an asshole.[/quote] At first I hoped that this thread was going to be directed at those who threaten to commit suicide in a vain attempt to get attention. Those people deserve it. But no. Instead we get some armchair warrior and psychologist who writes off people who are stuck, mentally and emotionally, in an endless loop that's spiraling rapidly downwards at breakneck speed as 'assholes' who are 'selfish' as well as 'cowards.' There's a term for this. It's called victim blaming. And since we are here already I feel the need to express this point: -blam!- you OP. You belittle and demean the suffering of those with depression so severe that suicide looks like a good solution to the problems they face. And you do it from a basis of such severe and gross arrogance and ignorance that the only reasonable response is the one I just gave you. OP, If you're going to do something I suggest you shut your trap, delete your OP, and pretend that this didn't happen

Edited by Geth: 1/1/2014 10:23:58 PM100% agree with this with people who say it for attention. It's almost as bad as when girls say they've been r.aped for attention. This beyond f.ucked up.

I like the updated OP a lot more than the old one. The original seemed very emotional, which is completely understandable for the friends of people who have committed suicide. It's just one of those phases of grief. Luckily, I have not had to experience the fallout of a suicide, but I can sympathise with how you feel. However, we can only imagine what motivation could possibly drive a person to override their most basic instinct and take their own life. I don't think they would ever do it to spite their friends and family. Part of the problem is the fact that depression, and mental illness in general, is very much a taboo subject for some people; we just don't want to talk about it. So people who need help might not ask for it, because they're afraid of what everyone would say. We need to let each other know that we can be confided in and that they can openly discuss their mental health without being judged.

1 ReplyUnfortunately I know what it's like to have a close relative kill themselves in your own home while you're there. It pretty much ruins your life and your familys life.

9 RepliesI've been told by every member of my family that I am a worthless piece of shit, or not even a decent human being. They've kicked me out and left me for dead basically. I haven't had a text in three days because I have no friends who have been willing to stay around. I've been in and out of mental hospitals for depression. Who would I be hurting if I killed myself?

8 RepliesTell a terminal cancer patient to overcome the constant and unending pain they are in. Tell a woman with chemical depression to just start seeing the bright side of things. Some things can't be overcome. Are they things I would kill myself over? I don't know. I haven't had them happen to me. Neither have you. Your opinion shows your age. You are a child, talking about an adult thing. I can only hope someone in pain doesn't read your condemnation of them, and take it to heart. People should be allowed their dignity.
