People think that suicide will relieve them of the pains of life. People look on their lives too harshly, people think they get it rough and they can't take it. But thats life, and someone out there always has it harder then you. And if that person didn't hang themself, then why should they?

What is it that you're talking about?

What do you guys think of the recent suicides that have been happening in the US? First that Amanda girl and now this girl.
I find them ridiculous. Teenage girls that have plenty to live for ending their own lifes due to their own stupid decisions.

Personally, I do not like Suicide and I cannot understand the mentality. I have been through loneliness, heart break, and all these symptoms of arousal of Suicide, yet I never thought about it. I have never thought of ending my life because I have hardships.

It's not a few hardships that will make you want to end your life.. depression is not a more intensive blues, it's different as it is a real mental trouble and one that has never been depressed cannot quite imagine how it feels exactly.

Unfortunately, today's younger society struggles with this. I don't understand the mentality, so some informing would be ideal; but I do wish it would stop. Life has many troubles, and that is half the experience of life!

Maybe there's a phenomenon I am not aware of, but I'd doubt that suicide has only risen lately... it's probably as old as civilization.

Do they now? I'd say they rather simply want to end their misery. Notice the small nuance?

As I said above... depression is a mental problem, it's not just feeling a bit more low than usual. Of course what you say is true, but it won't help those who want to end their lives. You gotta take care of them and show them attention, not make fun of them or tell them they're idiots.

I find them ridiculous. Teenage girls that have plenty to live for ending their own lifes due to their own stupid decisions.

Here again, as far as I know, they, or one of them, have been made fun of everywhere they got.. noone supported them.. in such a situation, calling them silly and talking logic won't help. A suicidal person doesn't think the same way a healthy person does. And personally I feel like everyone who has made fun of them is accessary to their death.

Suicide should not be shunned by society. It is a very serious problem within modern societies and awareness should raised.

People think that suicide will relieve them of the pains of life.

they are right tho.
when your dead, you dont have the pains of life.
there will be nothing so no problems either. (or the religious version: in "heaven" everything is good)

he is right but in hell everything is bad so do not kill your self to try and teach someone a lesson

Exactly. It is still seen as a weak and coward act by those who have no idea how it is to live in their situation, and this only makes things worse. And it is also true that there are many more suicides than one may think at first.

he is right but in hell everything is bad so do not kill your self to try and teach someone a lesson

I don't think they wanna teach someone a lesson. They just wanna end the hell they are living through, because they don't have the force to live it anymore. And the perspective of hell after death, in that situation, probably doesn't frighten them much anymore.

It's not a few hardships that will make you want to end your life.. depression is not a more intensive blues, it's different as it is a real mental trouble and one that has never been depressed cannot quite imagine how it feels exactly.

Yea, I still don't buy it. I have been through hard stuff, feeling unloved, lonely, abused (not Physically), yet I never thought about Suicide. I have discussed my issue with people to and they said they would have killed themselves by now, yet I haven't. And I have been depressed from my issues before. I never thought of killing myself. Wishing I was never born, yes. Attempting to kill myself, never gonna happen.

Maybe there's a phenomenon I am not aware of, but I'd doubt that suicide has only risen lately... it's probably as old as civilization.

Im sure it has been in cultures for many years, hell, just look at Hara-Kari.... and to be honest, and I am speaking of my opinion and I am sorry if this is offensive to anyone, but I think that Suicide is an act of stupidity. Ending your life over depression? People go through it all the time, I know lots of people who get depression yet they never wanted to kill themselves. I think it is an act of immaturity.

There is not to much I can say about this...

Your right, calling them silly is wrong. In times like that, making fun of someone who is Suicidal is like putting Gasoline in an open fire. It will just grow and grow till it consumes itself. At times like this, Suicide would be logical, but this all depends on how strong you are and how much your value your life. I value it almost more then anything, so me not being suicidal while being depressed makes sense.
