I understand why ppl commit suicide

[EBK String]

I would never do it, but life is hard and can get to a point where you dont see a way out and just removing yourself from life seems like it will give you relief.

More and more black people are committing suicide because the internet has shown us how bleak our situation is. Even back in jim crow we could say "we just have to make it north and get a good job and live a good life" they didnt have the info to know the north was just as racist and blacks lived in decrepit slums but false hope is powerful. Today we know we have nowhere to run or hide.

at a certain point in life existing can become painful

I've had those thoughts. If I didn't leave my parents and brother devastated, I'd probably have done it.

I've been in that mindstate many times before and I feel it's made my resolve to stay here stronger but I can't blame somebody for wanting go game over

Stop ... and smell the roses . Perspective in life is key .

You all got first world problems ..

Everyday you wake up breathing is another crack at it ..

Funny I was bumping this gem and stumbled upon this thread:




Been in a slump for some weeks with work, personal issues, and my mother's passing crossing my mind but I rebuke the devil's triumph and claiming victory in these dire times

 

[ColdSlither]

I'm not selfish and I know the pain it would cause my family. It would be a deep cut. And no matter how hard and depressing it gets, there's still shyt I want to see and do. So the thought doesn't cross my mind.

Another crack at suffering?

Look at you ready to fold and give up. Most of us strike out the first time we try something. Retool and find something else besides law skool
