I don’t think anyone can answer that question for anyone else, only help them answer it.

the thing you have to do is pay attention to the more positive things, like your friends and family, and do things that make you happy, instead of boxing yourself in.

i dont think it makes you a coward.. i mean yeah it hurts the people around you but sometimes when people feel like that they feel like theyre already causing the people around them pain and theyre suffering themself.
and i agree. you have to be really brave to do something like that. and i know people here are saying its wimpy and cowardly but doing something like that takes a lot of bravery.

that isnt putting an end to your problems, it causes sadness for the ppl you care about, and the ppl who care about you. the toughest thing to do is to tough it out and get through it, then ppl will see you as a true trooper

“who in here is brave enough to do that?”

so you mean to say you have a lot of willpower to kill youself and it should be looked at as a hard task or maybe even ‘accomplishment’?

Yeah, it takes a lot of bravery.
But it’s just a stupid way to use their bravery.
They should face their problems, and fix them, instead of running away from the problems by suicide, right?

“its the worst thing you can ever do to yourself”

To the person it isn’t the worst thing. To the suicidal it actually is looked at as a good thing to kill yourself. Right? You just need to tell them it’s bad and they have to udnerstand.

“suicide realy isnt something you would want to do”

To a suicidal, it IS something they’d want to do.

K, what if you were born in a house were abuse and drugs were always the topic? What if you grew up in a barrio full of crime. What if you tried to look for help but never got it. What if society always broke you apart to the point of having such a low self esteem?
