Why do yall pick and choose when to be sympathetic to "mental illness"? When a mentally weak person kills themselves it's "they were mentally ill" and we have no right to critique them. But then Yall turn around and call gay and tranny ppl mentally ill yet still shyt on them?

Suicide is not the answer to a problem, but a solution of giving up on finding the car keys, only to have them in your back pocket.

Suicide is knowing that the car keys are in your back pocket, but also knowing that they belong to a car you don't want.

Breh...there were times where I thought about just ending it. Especially last year when I was on a big breaking point. I thought about jumping off of the freeway bridge, but the reality of me fukking up somebody's day along with abandoning my family is more real than anything else.

The reality is that losing your life leaves a domino effect on those that care about you the most, along with you being another statistic. Why would you want to go out that way when you have more in store as time goes by?

I often think of that moment and remember my son running up to me hugging me like...fukk....


Not enough pain and agony in this world could make me want to do such a thing despite those thoughts. I can't lose my son, my wife, or the chance of actually leaving this shythole country regardless of how rough it is looking. I know things will be a bit better if not overkill miracious because I know in my spirit that we all deserve such a blessing.

Now back to this thread, OP is not wrong but the context is too raw for those that are mentally flawed. Suicide is not the answer to a problem, but a solution of giving up on finding the car keys, only to have them in your back pocket.

What a lot of you refuse to grasp is that in the grand scheme of things, you are not nearly as important as you think you are. Your motivations & experiences are just that; yours. Given your public testament to your mental health episodes, you should understand that better than most. It's easy to thumb your nose up and pat yourself on the back, but not everyone has that son to greet them at the door, or that positive familial bond.

Hypothetically speaking, for your sake, I hope those bonds continue to manifest and exist in your life. It won't be so easy for you to wax poetic if you were to lose those. Ironically, you'd be in the same sinking boat with those other cowards and it'd be amusing to see how well you float once you have no one around to toss you a life raft.

The fact that you have no clue about his life or what he was going through already invalidates everything you just said.

I know someone who is victim of abuse with complex PTSD. They engage in patterns of self harm and it's often beyond their control, they don't even realize until after the fact or during it. But every discussion here has to be some narcissistic bullshyt with zero nuance. Instead of thinking what the other person might have been going through, it immediately turns to "if that was me" or if someone I love did that, "How would it affect me".

There’s one person and their current state verses everyone they know who will have to carry that burden and the question of whether or not they “did enough”

Call it selfish if you want, but which one is more selfish?

So basically the person made someone else’s suicide all about themselves. Feeling like they’re so important they had the power to make a person want to live. And you’re asking who’s the selfish one?

No, suicide is not considering the pain or mental state you’d put others thru. Y’all are talking as if that the only way and as if people aren’t/wouldn’t be willing to do what they can to prevent something like that.

I think those that feel that way get a little too used to people trying to appeal to their emotions and empathize. They need somebody to get on their ass. That survival instinct and self esteem kicks in. If you’re willing to push back on this kinda input then what’s stopping you from pushing back on your feelings to end it all?

Damn I see why you got negs rained upon you

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

You just admitted you don’t understand nor have you experienced depression because you would know depression isn’t something that comes and goes when you hit hard times, it never leaves you. That’s the problem, it NEVER goes away. That’s why people kill themselves. You only felt a way when you were at your lowest and that’s normal. You could give a depressed person everything in the world and mentally it wouldn’t change their brain patterns. Their brain would still operate like they’re at rock bottom. Every single day, for the rest of their life.

You have successful people like Anthony bourdain and the CEO in Atlanta recently that committed suicide. Jay electronica summed it up perfectly “sometimes I don’t know what to say the pain never stops, the cloud never goes away the rain never drops”

Stop trying to shoehorn depression into this conversation, who cares

People who commit suicide are cowards, enough is enough

People who commit suicides because they’re dealing with depression are not cowards

 

[Rozay Oro]

Suicide is not cowardly, it’s bold but not an admirable way. Y’all stop regurgitating corny shyt cacs say.

Keep shoehorning a useless concept to protect cowards. I hope you don't spread this loser mentality to cause more people to commit suicide

Life isn't for everyone. Death, ultimately, is.

Just say you're not man enough to face your problems head on and face your demons, and conquer them. Enough of this "admirable" BS

Do you ever get tired of trying to pretend like you know what you're talking about?
