This thread made me log on Sythe for the first time in a while, lol.
These threads are almost pointless, unless you have never been to that point in your life; staring off, knowing at that moment you can end it; you can't even begin to understand it.
To every user that has stated "Suicide is a selfish decision", but isn't it more selfish to make someone live a life they don't want to live?
If someone is committing suicide, it's their decision and while it may not seem rational to someone looking on it from an outside perspective, it may be the very right choice in their own mind.
For most of us who live in the 1st world countries or countries that are at peace, there is no reason for suicide. Suicide serves more as a method of natural selection to rid society of the weak. As messed up as it sounds, you need to detach emotions from the statement and think about it. If a person is nuts enough to attempt to kill him or herself then I would not want that person roaming around in society. The person would have nothing to lose so let your imagination go from there.
I don't have a drop of respect for people who commit suicide (in first world countries) because they took the easy way out. People have dealt with a lot worse then they have yet they did not kill themselves. One of the most selfish things you can do. Instead of dedicating your life to prevent others from doing it, you just let the cycle continue. :sick:
Atleast in other countries suicide is for greater reasons then being bullied or having your feelings hurt.
Holy; wow, you are both arrogant and ignorant. Going off the idea that someone has it worse than me, I can't be upset is the same as going someone is happier than me, I can't be happy.
1st world problems are very different from 3rd world problems, and I won't argue that. I've been to a multitude of 3rd world countries, and I've experienced it. Quite frankly, you play the hand you are dealt.
There are a variety of circumstances that take place in first world countries that can make someone's life severely harder. There are a variety of disorders, things that cause a constant feelings of pain, worry, irritability, anger, suicidal thoughts, depression, everything. Pain you can't possibly imagine, and going off your post you have never have experienced.
You would not want them on the street with you? I am genuinely pissed off. Fuck You. Do you think everyone know's what everyone else is going through? Just because someone isn't happy with what they're experiencing doesn't make them a nice person, a normal person. People who'm you'd never expect to be could very well be suicidal. People don't generally tell people they're suicidal, definitely if they truly are. Not counting it's a point in life that you can push past, and if you can; it'll make you hell-of-a-lot stronger.
You're a fucking idiot. I mean genuinely, do you honestly think the only reason someone off's themselves is due to being bullied, or having their feelings hurt? Get out of your bedroom, go out into the world, and maybe, just maybe, open your damn eyes.
Lastly, there's a difference between sharing an opinion and being out-right disrespectful. Don't generalize; nor assume things about people, ever.
