No, I'm not committing suicide. Sorry Shadow.

I'm just seeing what your thoughts are on people who commit them.

Is bullying and life so bad that your only option is ending your life? I mean, some people will take other exits like drugs or alcohol to ease the pain. (Not saying that suicidal people are the only people who do drugs.)

I just don't think they value life as much as they should. I won't lie, at a point in life, I was somewhat suicidal. But it's more of I just wasn't really sure on anything in life and I didn't really enjoy it. I would threaten my parents sometimes that I would commit suicide to see if their reaction if they cared about me. And I played a scenario in my head over and over to see how everyone in my life would react if I did pass away. Because you really don't know how much you mean to people until you're gone. And I always thought in my head, what would I get out of it if I did actually do it? Nothing.

That's when I kinda started cherishing life to the fullest and haven't really thought about it that much. Because what some people do is they have this secret. And they don't have the strength to come forward and tell someone. And when you do tell someone, it relieves the pain because you've finally let out something that's been on your mind for so long and you can get an opinion on something. And if they don't, it shows how we're getting weaker morally and mentally. It's also a pretty selfish act, because...

1. No one will know the reason
2. You don't care about your friends and family
3. You won't really gain anything

If people actually stepped up and discussed their issues, I think there would be a massive decrease in suicide rates.

I thought about suicide when I was 9. My mom told me to do the dishes and I was like NO! and I ran into the bathroom and started taking shitloads of protein pills thinking that I was gonna die.

It's the pussies way out. I have no sympathy for you if you commit suicide, it's selfish, and if you are so depressed that you think about suicide, talk to someone instead of crying about it and harming your self.

I have a bit of sympathy for them. More as of the issues they were dealing with, not really them committing suicide. It's like, they're afraid to face their problems upfront. So they take the easy way out.

Some people do it for other reasons. Do you know who Hunter S. Thompson is? He shot himself in the face basically because he was getting old, had broken legs, and didn't like sitting around on his ass after being such a vibrant character for his entire life. He lived a full life in his eyes, and it was time for him to go. He watched his father deteriorate while he was a child before passing, and didn't want to go out like that.

To be honest, I am kinda fine with that, but young people who are getting bullied that are going around and drinking bleach and hanging them selves is stupid.

Yeah, I've thought about this a lot. I would never kill myself out of depression or anything like that, but when I get old, can't move around, and live my life. I'd rather just die then be miserable. That's why I don't hate on it that much.

If I was old, crippled and wasn't enjoying life, I would ask to be put down. Not sure how though.

Depends on the situation I guess. Some people have shit lives and are just miserable, and if they feel like just ending it, so be it. Also, better to die by your own hands than someone else's.

But yeah, whiny tweens who just need a hug can fuck off.

I think it's insanely selfish, but certain circumstances are obviously something i could never wrap my head around - there is a really awesome netflix doc on some older man and his wife going to Sweden? I think, and it was because his body was withering away. It's certainly not dying with dignity but i also believe people can do what they want tbh.

A part of me thinks that suicide is a product of our current society and culture. Especially in the United States, we live in an individualistic society where we're told to succeed and make something of ourselves. Especially in the growing pressures of our world today with advanced technologies and new stressors compared to our ancestors had to deal with in their day, I think some people feel very overwhelmed and don't know who they can turn to. Perhaps some people feel like they can't turn to anyone and should just suck it up and deal with their problems on their own. If there was more communication across the board I think suicide rates would go down. Even in our current society where there's several ways to communicate with each other, it's as if we're not really hearing or understanding each other much at all.
