I am kinda Freaked Out by How many People Have Passing Thoughts of Suicide... What is Going on in the World for this kind of Thinking to Happen? Well Actually...The World is Indeed Fucked up and Dying...
i think everyone at one point or another thinks of it...whether or not they're serious or just frustrated with life :skull:
well if the people don't appreciate life enough to actually live it then maybe they should commit suicide.
Oh Yeah... What About People who Actually Do kill themselves? When Alone in their Room One Night...Or Jumping in Front of a train... What About the people who Actually Die? I Do Not Think it's All to Do with Attention at All... ???
Sorry...But too many People Have Depression and Can not Actually Help Thinking of Suicide... I Do not Agree with your Cold Statement...
I think what she's saying is that Life is a Gift, and we shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth :H Hotwater
People are people. I think that there has always been a depressed percent of the population, it is just much more obvious now because it gets lots of media and social attention... and plus, the population is much larger than what it was years ago.
Thinking about it isn't that abnormal. I mean, most people have by the time they're no longer teenagers. Thinking about it abstractly, or wondering what would happen if you did, it's not really outrageous all on it's own. It's when you become obsessed with it, seriously start considering it, not just as a passing thought or a what-if but as a real potential something to do... that's when I worry.
If science could offer 100% proof of life after death, I wonder how many people would suddenly decide to kill themselves :H Hotwater
I've thought about it, when I was younger especially. But I guess I have too much to look forward to now, to ever do anything about it.
I think everyone has had thoughts like that at one point or another. I believe it's due to the human race removing itself from the natural order and not regularly excercising our survival instincts. That being said, every time I've reached a point in my life where I had those thought, I always thought of what my cousin told me: "If my life is that shitty right now, do I wanna be remembered as the person who had all those problems? Fuck that! It makes more sense to commit suicide when your life is full of happier things to speak of."
