Suicide reminds me of people rage quitting from a videogame. They like to say whatever, but when someone goes to comfort them and listen to their problems they feel a lot better and probably go back to their lives. When people do not get these sort of novelties, they resort to a bitter end, because they can't handle the world for what it is. Truly a waste of potential, but I believe suicide is a side-effect of narcissism, because at the root when your image is destroyed by a tragic event and it can't be rebuilt, people are driven to despair and no one can pick up the pieces and fit them back together before that event happened.
A lot of suicides happen because people aren't educated in life enough, they are thrown into a high-stress situation and many people would fail, because they aren't prepared. Suicide is their own fault in my own opinion. They don't ask or seek help or when they do, they expect the other person to fully understand their problems and when that other person doesn't they use it to justify their despair. If that isn't narcissism then I don't know what is. I do not feel the least bit sorry for the people who commit suicide, but only for those who are about to because they came to me or someone else with SERIOUS intent for help. The friends and family that are left behind should be mad and not sad. The person didn't think about them as a priority, but only thought of themselves, because of something that could have been resolved. ANYTHING can be resolved whether or not you just came through a divorce or you lost everything, there are people around you that can help out of good will or public image.
My conclusion is people lack determination, empowerment, and humility these days. they think they can take on the world by themselves and if it doesn't work for them, they rage quit from planet earth. truly pitiful.
