Suicidal people are so selfish it’s disgusting

[DJK]

As someone who was once deeply suicidal and later a mental health counselor helping suicidal people, I'll say this.
A suicidal person has thinking errors.
Their thinking gets so warped and wrapped up in itself that it becomes unrecognizable or unreachable.
Often they think catastrophically negative about themselves, people, and/or the world.
There is often anger at others, but not always.
And yes, it's fair to say that one thinking error is being too focused on oneself.

Suicide is justifiable in certain cases imo like if you’re paralyzed from the neck down , terminal cancer/disease, or if you lost your whole immediate family instantly (like a car crash)

People like you simply don’t understand what depression is. Depression is a form of pain. Think of someone who has 3rd degree burns all over their body who just wants the pain to stop. Why do you think depressed people often die from horrible deaths like jumping off of bridges into ice cold waters or throwing themselves in front of trains? The same reason people threw themselves from the towers during 9/11. The pain they were experiencing was to much to bare.

It’s selfish to tell someone who is dealing with depression that they’re selfish for deciding to end it. Just be grateful you don’t have to experience anything like it.

man I know depression. I hit rock bottom and reoriented only to climb out and I knew from that point on I’d never feel that way again. I even know how it feels to want to die. Not suicidal, but definitely a desire to just die. Like it was a release. What I’ve done since then are things you wouldn’t believe. *I* wouldn’t believe it if some angel dropped down and told me it’s beyond the bend. Lemme guess, you think I just made this thread randomly? I’m a champion and I’m here for uplift.

Trigger warning: it won’t be pretty

Nobody is this thread said “everyone who commits suicide=depression” There’s a strong correlation between suicide and depression. I think you should know this. In fact, that’s how I would define depression: the loss of the inherit will to live.

Stop trying to shoehorn depression into this conversation, who cares

People who commit suicide are cowards, enough is enough

Thank you for this thread OP.

I also believe that committing suicide is the most selfish and cowardly way of ending your life.

People that does that do not be thinking of the long time grief that they will cause to their family and other loved ones.

I'm sorry that Regina King lost her son, but was he even thinking about what pain he would cause her before committing suicide?

You think nikkas who commit suicide are in anything even resembling a rational, logical state of mind???

Even the greatest logical minds and artists felt suicide was an option and took their lives
That must be a pain so heavy that it outweighs their own self-preservation
Depression is a sickness

Yeah that’s not gonna fly with me. It’s not just for others but that’s a foundation to build on. I said it earlier but there’s potentials you can’t even imagine if you’re in that state.

These b*stards negging and 1 starring to dismiss the thread ain’t gonna fly or get me off my square neither. I witnessed someone just last week on here who’s ADMITTING he’s depressed and searching for passion. Homie is at least fighting for his life and happiness and all kinda folks flooded in talking shyt to him. I respect him for that and my advice was completely different from what I saw there. This is tough love but it’s still love at the end of the day.

How do you know if he sought out help or not? He could've reached out and tried to find an outlet and STILL couldn't escape despair.

The understanding yall have about this shyt is so embarrassing and ironically, self centered.

It’s bigger than him, this is prevention. How do you know he was actually open to those he reached out to? How do you know it wasn’t going thru the motions prescribed for relief?

Why the leap that everyone who Commits Suicide = Depression? Don't bring in another conversation to defend Cowards

Suicidal ideation is literally THE primary sign of depression, you fukking dullard . It's the first thing they look for in a depression screening.

Not all suicidal people are depressed (mental illness, cult, self destructive etc) but every person diagnosed with clinical depression is suicidal on some level.

You are clearly not equipped for this conversation and have the mentality of a 15 year old.

 

[Tha Gawd Amen]

I feel like most suicidal people don't necessarily want to die; they want the demons to stop. When you feel like you've exhausted all of your options, and the demons are still there this is what happens. It's hard to reach out for help when you feel like this, because you're labeled "soft", "a coward" etc., so you try and fight it yourself even though it's something that more than likely takes a lot of support and help from others to deal with.

Have fun being a mental midget who just babbles about shyt you don't have even a rudimentary understanding of. Ignorance is bliss.

That's the thing - we don't know. So maybe shut the fukk up before judging him?
