Yeah, if there's one thing I've noticed on this forum, it's that not a lot of debate or discussion happens. :p

It's nice to have a discussion

Hey everyone.

I personally prefer to look upon this subject in a more introspective way. Thinking about the feelings that would make someone commit suicide helps you to centralize on it much better than using it as a Tool to separate strong people from weak people and judging who has the better reasons to end his/her own life.

There’s an expression in the book “Werther” from Goethe which I’m particularly fond of, which goes more or less like “the ones who choose to end their lives aren’t doing it because they Hate it, but because they love life so much” - by not being able to stand the feeling of watching life decaying. It doesn’t matter what the reason is. It can be a Champion of athletics  Doomed to a wheelchair for the rest of his life, or a whining emo kid with no friends. There aren’t justified or unjustified causes for suicide, because the emotion of ultimate Pain, fear and Despair is basically the same, this overly strong feeling that gives people the will to end their own lives.

We shouldn’t just Judge who’s got a reason to commit suicide and who doesn’t. Nor we should Judge others for being strong or weak. You surely don’t want to get your vision limited by these society stereotypes. Sometimes we have the tendency to store our thinking into little organized drawers and when someone asks us something, we just open them and Eject all the already formed opinions about morality, common sense, human character. Me included, I commit the same mistake without thinking. And we so often forget to expand our minds and wonder about the essence evolving actions and thoughts.

I’ve seen members here building little lists of people who have noble reasons to Kill themselves and people who doesn’t; I’ve seen posts in this topic like “People who commit suicide are weak, I too had problems and I didn’t do it”. But… as relative as this matter is, can you, with this life statement, Judge the feelings that Betrayed others’ hearts? 

Don’t take me wrong. I’m glad we are all having this discussion. It Means there are people interested in Humanity issues. But sometimes, you cannot understand just by using morals and logic. Being tolerant is the best way to expand your horizons, by thinking of the world as a whole and you being part of it, joined with everyone and everything, instead of distancing yourself by criticizing and giving labels to other people.

Hard to disagree with such an opinion 0  . You mostly cover the whole subject . Sadly , life is complicated . Judging isnt only a way to Lord over others , nor make ourselves feel better . Its also a way of understanding . Seeing the motives behind  it and not stumbling on the ACT itself . Its not to blame the others for poor or good , right or wrong choices (who are we to do so anyway) but to put ourselves in a situation , to think of the "why? " . Of course that needs maturity and the ability to place yourself in a situation you have never been . Isnt that what humans do in their whole lives ? Observing, so they can be ready when its their time to act . Of course such knowledge is only theoretical , and the person may never be able to act as he/she planned to , but as happens in all things better to have a background , a solid opinion , no matter which that is , so you can deal with it . Its mostly about ourselves . Frankly , (and i really know that ) , those people dont give a damn if we think its right or wrong , nor that would change. As you said when you reach and cross your limits (for no matter what reason) , anything else doesnt seem to matter and that might lead to ending up your life (justified or not ) . Ending up your life is just the result . And overated (cruel ? )  in my opinion . Also i would prefer to know the reason and sharing opinion always gives you a better insight. What could be different ? Could we go talk to the Emo kid and share our time with him/her instead of laughing at his/hers suicidial thoughts ? Could we shown our understanding to the crippled man instead of ingoring him ? What better way to be openminded than talking about it , exchanging opinions so WE can be better as persons , learning from our own mistakes that led them to those actions ? Cause dont be fooled  , if the nerd kid we used to laugh at, blew his/hers brains with a gun  its our fault too.
You talked about openmindness.I think thats the way to achieve it 0  . No person can have a complete opinion about a subject if that opinion is not tested in arguements and i am sure you had your own share of talking about it too 0  . Its not about using stereotypes "i agree , i disagree with suicide",for the mature mind,  its beyond that . I am sure that if someone here isnt doing just chit chat (and i hope not) he/she have learned a lot by putting aside his/her arrogance "i have the absolute truth" and observed the others opinions .
 
I hope i make a point clear and it doesnt sound like rambling 0

Hey!

I think that there's a lot of reasons to feel that you want to commit Suicide, but also that there's always a bigger reason to stay alive. But some ppl haven't found it yet, Like my girlfriend; Before we met she tried to take her life 2-3 times a week, she did Hurt her self.. (She told me why and believe my i did understand her.. unfortunately i cant tell the story because its not mine to tell..)  but now she have stopped Hurt her self (no new scars at least) and she sais she never think about taking her life.. so i think that all you need to do is find the thing for you that makes you want to live.. and i do belive everyone got one such thing that makes life worth living through anything, so give life a honorable chance. And of course sometimes you may feel it's not worth waiting for, but what if your wrong? what if its really that good that you would be able to wait all your life for it?.. damn i would get MAD if i took my life and SAW that my life would've been awesome just a day after..
well thats just my thoughts  cant talk about any life experience really because i think my life have been all good this far

Life is hard and it sucks, but trying to end it yourself just makes it tougher on friends and family around you.
