I am a firm believer that no one asks for or looks for that place, or that suicide is the solution to "fix" it. No one wants that, but some get there and can't find their way back.
I feel its your life to take if you choose. BUT, a person that considers this option is ill and needs help. It seems to hurt the family and friends of the "victim" more than anything. If you dont wanna be here, thats your choice, but the hurt you cause loved ones is terrible. So no, dont kill yourself, seek help. I know, it seems like im on both sides, its a catch 22 in my mind.
This is so true, Unless you have been there you can never know what it is like. For those that read my post about my lady and i a few weeks back will know what i am talking about. For the past 3 years we had built a life together and she then told me it was over and ask me to leave. It seemed all of our friends took her side and None of them ever called to check on me. That was the toughest part. (Feeling so alone) For me this has been the lowest point of my life!! We had a beautiful home 3 dogs that i adore and all of the things i have built up over the past 3 years. Now i am having to sell everything to get the money to move and start all over again. Just looking for a place to live is a struggle anymore because i felt i had nothing to take their. I mean not even a chair too sit in or a bed to lay my head in. Well tonight she tells me she is going to give me the love seat and chair down stairs the bed that i now sleep in and things to help get me started again. I don't know but maybe it is Gods way of looking out for me or maybe its being able to talk about it on here but i really feel like i have something to look forward to again. Either way i am glad to have the thoughts out of my head and just pray they don't come back anytime soon. No matter how bad it gets if you can hold on long enough i am sure it will all work out in the end. If anyone, i mean anyone needs to talk about things please feel free to call me 434 401 3212. Off and on for the past 5 years I have been to the lowest you can get and know what it feels like. It is always nice to have a friend to listen who knows what you might be going through. Someone will listen if you talk. Doug

I thought along the same lines when I was young because I heard older people (who we assume are wiser) label suicides as crazy people.
I have seen many people and situations that made me have to rethink my intolerance.
for example:
a person terminally ill will financially bankrupt there family decides to take their life.
or a person who has seen their entire family killed and they have no one left, no family no friends.
or an elderly person, no family left alive, no friends alive, left in the street with no food, no shelter, nothing.
some one living in pain with each breath they take, until you have been there, try a little sympathy.
Why are some people so above others they judge.
Most suicides are not "crazy" people. They cannot find a way out, or there is no way out.
I hope none of us here sink to such a bad place. No one is completely immune.
I have experienced physical pain so great only morphine helped. They cut you off and you have to fight through the pain. Some people do not have enough fight in them or the end result of the fight leaves them with no prize for victory and there fore no reason to fight in the first place.
I think it takes a lot of ............ to decide to take your own life. I don't believe in it but I try to understand it. I have seen it first hand, it is very sad and even though I did not know these people, I wondered if there was any way to help them, if only we could turn back the clock.
