On a slightly more serious note...
Forums › General Discussion › On a slightly more serious note...-
I think most people who commit suicide just lose it for that split second. Some idiot called weak not sure who but what a load of shit.
It's just a mental break down or a crazy split decision that I think people just act on.
A friends dad killed himself he had trouble with his business back in the recession then one day got up ate breakfast with his family went out washed his car came home and hung himself.
Someone who's thought out a plan to kill themselves doesn't think I'll wash my car first tho. -
I'm glad I'm seeing this. I dealt with a lot of guilt when a former tw player, Leprechaun, took his life. We'd gotten very close, talked for hours every day. Anyway, I knew it was a thought in his mind. I told some of our alliance members to also talk to him. I wasn't qualified to do this. I couldn't do this alone. Being that we lived 1000 miles apart, I didn't know how else to help. I was one of the last people he talked to right before he did it, besides his best friend who was with him. I struggled with the feeing that I didn't do enough to stop him. That I should have done more. I still think about him, I talk about him when I can. People probably don't get my pain since he and I never met face to face, but hose of you who've been here long enough to build relationships should understand that that doesn't matter. Cody was one of my all time favorite people.
This post comes at a trying time in the life of your girl, Bella. Long story short, my husband recently wrote a suicide note and sent it to me.

More than anything, I think it was a cry for help and I'm grateful that I now (sort of?) have the tools and capability to get him the help he needs and I know that I cannot, should not, and don't deserve to have it put all on me and try to save someone alone. Sorry, this could be so much more eloquently written, but....I dunno. I'll blame it on no sleep. 👶🏼 🍼 😭

Just a friendly self bump... You do matter. You are important. No doubt about it.
If you do have doubt, would you please let this dumb TC player be a friend. DMs are open 24/7. I’d love nothing more. ❤️

Ignorant... Ok. So we euthanize our pets because they aren't worth as much as people? Otherwise we would make them suffer?It's an open forum, you can be as blunt as you want. But stop comparing human lives to dogs. That's ignorant. And I will moan and wail all I want because my heart will always hurt when someone makes a choice that says they don't matter enough
Personally, I don't see much difference between people and dogs. We both matter just the same in this existence.
Just because someone wants to die, (or we choose for them at the hospital), doesn't mean they "don't matter enough".
You haven't haven't hurt enough to make death a better deal. Congratulations. But those that do, I won't judge them.
Call me weird, but just because “insert noun” are on the same field does not make them the same.
And personally I don’t think you live that way either. -
Great post chips 👍

I'm on Prozac and it's making me more suicidal than usual, I'm a shitebag so probably won't do it but I wish I would just feel normal for a change, I'm not looking for attention just letting people know that there are more people out there that are suicidal than you would think
-
People like Bourdain choosing suicide proves that you can have everything and it can still not be enough. Thankfully it’s something that’s never touched my life directly. But if it does, I know I would’ve wanted that person to reach out. If you’re hurting, talk to someone. Your life has value.

I have conflicting feelings on this subject. On one hand i think that people who stuggle with suicide should stop wasting everyone elses time and effort and just go ahead and do it. Rid the world of another weak and broken soul. On the other ive struggled with depression concerning the futility of life and pointlessness of existence myself. Why not follow my own feeling and take myself out? Because i love life and would be immortal if possible whether theres a point to life or not. I realize everyones pain is different and how overwhelming it can be. I also realize that i dont share that pain or how it feels. Everyone feels and reacts differently even to similiar or sometimes identical situations.

It hardly ever works but i try to focus on the fact that i love life, i loves new experiences and learning new things. No matter whats bringing me down, fuck everything and everyone else. I also believe life is our greatest resource and should not be thrown away. We have so much more to learn. Which also brings me more into depression when i consider how small, insignificant and primitive we are. Sometimes i think we been given so much and we’ve done so little. The little time we have we squander. And we delibritely destroy oursef anyway. Knowing full well the things harms our bodys we do them anyway. Because we can. Im an adult i do what i want lol. Childish mentalities for someone who is suppose to be mature. We destroy ourselfs. So why not do it early?

Yes i realize my typos and i just dont care to back up and fix them... i count on you being intelligent enough to know what is being said. If youre not. Fuck off.

1. Calling people pussies doesn’t help them.
2. I don’t know if you’ve ever thought much about it, but going against every instinct in you and hanging yourself on a door knob is not something a “pussy” could do.

How the hell can anyone who’s not been suicidal understand and judge it? It’s not about easy or hard — it’s about mental illness or a crushing despair that hopefully you will understand. People live such insular lives and don’t get that not everyone is the same. Trust that I’ve lived through stuff that few experience and would break many people. And yet, I look at people who’ve had it worse and wonder how the hell they manage to survive. The bottom line is it’s easy to judge from the sidelines, but only those who’ve seriously attempted suicide (I have not) know what it’s like. And know that the grief I’m sure we’ve all experienced at one time is NOT the same as what a suicidal person experiences. I wrecked my ankle playig ball 20 years ago. Spent 6 weeks on bed rest. So now I know what one-legged person’s life is like, right?

By the way, anyone who think Bourdain was weak, he overcame homelessness, heroin addiction, and his old ass would’ve whooped most of our asses on a 1-on-1. Yeah, but weak...🙄

Shortly before his death, he announced he was happy. Maybe he hid his feelings, but it’s more likely he had an extreme bipolar manic attack or a sudden psychotic episode. Something extreme beyond his control. Now join my family, you lazy bastard!

You said hopefully they will understand and at the same time admit that only ones that experience it can understand it. So are you hoping that they have mental illness or crushing despair?? I would hope no one understands. I sure as hell do t want to understand considering the only way to understand is be in that situation. No thanks. Im sorry that they are going through it but i wouldnt wish that type of understanding on myself or anyone else.How the hell can anyone who’s not been suicidal understand and judge it?

Suicide is selfish. There is no justification for it. This life was granted to us to love and enjoy God.
I always find it interesting that the opposite opinion always supports or defends death. However you want to paint it, it’s selfish to take your own life when you could have given it to another who is less fortunate than you.
