My friend, she was so happy on the exteriro then over a period of a few days when so dark she'd laugh about people dying then wish it upon herself. I watched the transformation. I sat her down and she told me everything. I was hysterical by the time she finished but she showed me the scars. I help her, i tryed my hardest and so did someother friends and now she is like she used to be apart from the sick depth that she experianced is still there, not as twisted. It hurts to know you friends ants to stop. I makes you feel like you are not good enough!

Exactly, you have the overwhelming feeling that by dying you'll improve everyone elses life in the long run even if they're sad for a day or two.
Selfishness has got nothing to do with it, most people don't see there as being _any_ other choice.

perhaps if people were more caring and bothered about the suicidal person, then mayb it wouldnt get to that.
its the "i never spoke to him, never gave a toss, but when he kills himself i suddenly become upset."
if people were more considerate and caring in the 1st place, then mayb perfectly nice people wouldnt b suicidal.

Basic Human Rights say that we have a right to life - surely that entails the right to end ones life.

my best friend was really close to it, and it was only after we found her in the school toilet unconcious from an overdose that we realised how serious things were. Loads of boys were being nasty all the time and her dad used to hit her so she thought it was the only thing she could do to make every thing stop.
Its still sad to think about

The free action to take ones own life, if they see it as the option they want should be respected. It only directly affects that individual.

Its not always like that at all. In fact very different.

that was pretty obvious.
often, i would say that it is true - people feeling lonely - if people did care, then they would approach them.
i know this isnt true for a lot of people, but a lot of people feeling suicidal have had no1 to talk to them.
it must b obivous a lot of the time if some1 is hideously depressed - yet no1 approached them and say "r u ok".

Exactly, you may be messed up but if you just sat down and thought about it for one second instead of thinking about your self and the pain, and think of others who are a hell of alot more worse off, you may get some where in life!

Why don't you start advocating the criminalization of it?

Yes but some people may not have those loving family and friends, or may not have family and friends who openly show their love for them. My parents never felt the need to show how much they loved me, they constantly put me down, and it is only now that I am past that that I know deep down inside they love me. Actions of my friends also made me feel unloved, and this as well as lots of other aspects of my life made me feel that my life was worthless.

Why do we have Human rights? We have Human rights because we value them, we value the freedom and autonomy that they give the individual.

you do have a point - otherwise it could get to the stage where people are forced to live for the sake of not hurting others. which wouldn't be worth it i suppose, if they felt to strongly about it.

There are a lot of different situations in which you find yourself. If you did something terrible and can't live with your self. You get bullied, sexual abuse, violence. I haven't got the answer for everything, i wish i could twirl my magic wand and you'd feel better. But i can't, no one can! But please think.

people often be suicidal because no1 cares - they dont get a person approaching them saying "whats wrong, you want to talk. i am ahre to be supportive."
that was my point - many wont feel so crap if people actually looked around them and were more considerate.

I doubt you know anyone who has commited suicide. It hasnt effected you. It effects the person I'm closest to every day. It hurts that person more than anything.

Your saying we don't have an autonomous right to our own lives, our own human rights?
