    Shame is way cheaper than public mental healthcare.

    If youve never been at that point, you have no idea.

    I don't think suicide is easy at all. I've had suicidal thoughts and it's really hard to decide either way. It's even harder to come up with a way to do it and make it happen. People who say that lack perspective. It's not a matter of being too lazy to figure out your shit and go on living.

    Suicide is never painless, for the act is never/rarely affects 'the one' but the 'many' - even though one doesn't realise it at the moment in time. There are always consequences to actions. This is true when it comes to 'failed' attempts.
    One can never really appreciate what goes through another's mind, for we are never living in their mind, body or feel the soul of someone else.
    The final solution may seem an easy 'cop out' for some/many but I have found it is moreover an act of utter desperation, frustration and inner turmoil.
    I am due to attend a work instigated initiative to address Mental Health issues - it is based on the S.U.M.O. principle (Shut UP (and) Move On). Shut up? - I'd like to see them try that with me - (I'd refer to my previous post of Native American proverb) - bring it on

    Watch M.A.S.H. again. The movie, not that television horseshit.

    Whys that? - Because "Suicide is Painless" is the theme song to the M.A.S.H. Movie/Film/T V Series??
    That seems somewhat of a cheap, throwaway line to what is a serious and life changing/ending subject

    No I meant the movie itself. Suicide is addressed rather well I think.

    If it was about mental illness, everyone with the same mental illness to the same degree or higher would also commit suicide.

    No one ever has any idea wirh a great deal of certainty the real reason a certain individual commited suicide
