My first post here, so i'd like to start off on the right foot. I like mindful/meaningful discussions, so here we go, I would like to discuss two people here, both bully victims, died (suicidal) different years.
First Person
Kristina Arielle Calco
Kristina was a year 12 student back in 2005, she had the best grades of anyone in the school, she was the highest academic achiever there. She seemed like the happiest girl in that school, she was always cracking jokes, making people laugh and more. Behind this fake picture she painted for herself, she was constantly, and i mean, CONSTANTLY bullied at school, she was called fat, ugly, a slut, and much more on a hourly basis of every day at school, weekends etc.
Kristina died, in 2005, because she hung herself in her basement, she told her friends, that the night of her Prom, there was going to be a big wonderful surprise, the surprise was, that she killed herself, and it had to be that her little sister was the one that found her hanging in the basement.
Second Person
Olivia Jane Penpraze
Bullied, for 4 years straight, most of this occurred at her own school, even over Facebook, Messenger, Skype etc. She was called fat, and ugly, and a slut more than anyone ever has at her school, kids continuously did, not knowing the dire consequences it was going to cause, because they are stupid bullies. She was bullied daily, her bullies found anyway possible to get to her, and call her names, and do other nasty things, which i don't want to reveal here. She put on a fake smile, and she was good at it, not even her own parents knew what was going on, she merely stated that she was fine, as any normal teenager does. She was bullied for 5 ears straight, and no stopping ever occurred, it never stopped, until her death happened.
Olivia Jane Penpraze died on 3 April 2012, her story went wildfire all over the internet, their was virtual Funeral Services, real life Services, people lit candles, gave moments of silence and much more.

My input on this subject
Suicide, makes me cry, I am a grown man,when i saw these two stories, I cried the moment i had time alone, i saw these storied straight after each other, i was on Facebook, and i saw a post about Olivia, after i finished reading her story, i saw the story about Kristina, i have never cried so much in one night, People committing Suicide, almost give me suicidal tendencies. I don't think it is selfish at all, Suicide is your choice, if you believe you can't get out of your mess, or you don't want to, your decision is your own, and your's only. No one shall decide you own fate. If you want to get out of your situation, you must try, don't be afraid to tell people, even if it is only one person, tell them everything, get their help, they will be willing to do it, anyone would, even a homeless person will discuss solutions to your depression. (My belief, don't take it to heart)
It's a sad world, when people commit suicide, because of other people, personally, i am grade 12, nearly finished, i have been bullied since i hit year 2, and i still get bullied by those same people, they add me on Facebook, thinking they have got over their little bully phase, and i check back later, they have written a huge ass post on my wall, saying the nastiest things imaginable, this made me suicidal at one point, and the person i get help from, my grade 2 teacher, i went to the school, i talked to her, she talked to me, and we resolved it together. In grade 7, another "serious" bullying regime occurred, this "boy", always use to push me, steal my packed lunch, my lunch money, and one day, even split my head wide open on a brick wall, i was hospitalized for 2 weeks because of him, you know what kept me from thinking of Suicide then, i went and beat him up, along with all my friends (4 of them, 5 including me), we trapped him in a corner, and beat the crap out of him, no hospital for him though, we aren't bulllie's ourselves, after that, he left the school, and appeared again after i moved schools, due to other bullies there. In year 8, i was bullied by a girl, yes, a girl, for about 7 months, she was always just doing stupid things, calling me names, teasing me, and all the usual stuff, and i couldn't do anything, i had no friends, because i just moved to that school, and she turned everyone against me, it was hard, the school couldn't do anything they said, after a bit if digging around,i figured this girls back story out, she was in a notorious family, well known in my town, (it was small), everyone was scared of them, even the school, so they did nothing, i was forced to go to school, with no friends, sit on my own, i hardly had lunch, because people always stole it, i was forced to lie to the cafeteria ladies, and say that i orded lunch and i didn't get it, i did this maybe once every 4-5 months, but that wasn't enough, i resorted to stealing from people to get my lunch, it's not ethical, but was a requirement for me. I am not proud of it, but it had to be done, my family was semi-poor, we had enough trouble paying the bills, and the paying the house off.
Suicide brings me to tears every time i hear about it, you are NOT a coward for wanting to commit suicide under any circumstance. (besides acting like your suicidal for attention)
Believe what you want, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but don't question other people's beliefs without proper reasoning. I am open to listening to other people's ideas about my beliefs, but at least have half of a working brain, before questioning me.
There is my input, if you skipped/skimmed my entire story, i suggest going back and actually READING it, otherwise, you will get the wrong idea.
Thanks for reading
