    Today I found out a kid that used to go to my school, then dropped out, killed himself very recently...like a day or two ago. this is weird as fuck because this is the second person i have known to have comitted suicide. this dude was pretty cool though, didnt say a whole lot....i even smoked with him once. i just think that it is a really weird thing to know someone and then they can just be gone...especially from killing oneself.

    but, even though it is bad that he died, comitting suicide is for the weak...the easy way out. i dont really believe there is any true reason to kill yourself unless you are in some crazy nonstop pain for years or whatever.

    its kinda a bad topic, but thats just what came up into my day today.

    Well, I don't think people commit suicide unless there has been a prolonged period of extreme pain. Its just that some pain is not physical. Some personal experiences with deeply troubled people has convinced me that mental disease and anguish are very real.

    Anyway, sorry for your loss. It is crazy when the first of your peers dies.

    i'm in agreement. Most suicides are pointless. Sorry that yo0u're friend died though, that's a bitch. But you get more sympathy from me then he does. Mourning the loss shows respect, so respect back to you my man.

    yeah, but this was just over some stupid shit like a girl....idk the whole story but i do know that it was over dumbass shit. and idk...i dont believe suicide is the right thing to do in any situation...except like i said, prolonged extreme physical pain.

    also, because im nice, i signed a petition to get a plaque of him on the wall at school

    i disagree about suicide.

    i think is a personal choice. although a lot of unhealthy(mentally) people commit suicide, it doesn't necessarily mean its an unhealthy thing. its a choice that can be made even with a healthy mindset. Its a right that we are born with. no one asked me if i wanted to be in this world, i should be able to take myself out.

    i personally love being alive, and i don't think i would ever commit suicide, bit if i ever decided to, i think it is kind of selfish for people to judge me for using a right that i was born with.

    no one asked you if you wanted to be in this world becuase you were not in existence to be asked. i think it is damn selfish to kill yourself when your parents, most of the time....i know some parents are fucked up..., dedicate their entire life into you and you end it...which is almost like ending another's life.

    some people have physical pain and some people have

    lots of mental pain comming towards them

    like maybe not that good of a life with parents or not that good of a life with your self (keep beating your on self up)

    stuff like that

    then some people cant take it anymore

    i feel for the guy if he was raised up in some sort of trap it might of felt like

    now that im here can i not be asked?

    i think it would be pretty unhealthy for me to take my own life without consulting with ALL my loved ones before hand. Letting them know all of my reasons for doing so. maybe even have the willing and understand ones around while it happens. maybe spend a week in the woods with no food or water sharing the last of my energy with the closest people too me.

    man thats hard shit to hear....im kinda in between the suicide thing i can see why people would take their own life.....some1 in this country needs to do more to stop this from happening....such as free counseling or somethin.....i also now what its like to have a suicidal person in your family the best thing you can do is work with them through it when they are feeling particulary bad

    sometimes, suicide is the best option to people by being quick to stop whatever is bothering someone. i know its crossed some peoples minds and luckily they will have someone there telling them its not a good idea.

    id bet not often. the majority of all suicides are done by mentally unstable people. most people assume that stable people don't commit suicide, but it does happen. a lot of people like to lump all suicide together and assume that anyone that commits suicide is selfish, but thats just not the case.

    Sippin on the dragon the other day,
    Tompkins Square Park up by Avenue A.
    Halfway down the forty and a pig come up to me,
    said "listen here boy, gotta show me yer ID."
    Well living in a police state,
    I tell you man, it ain't that great,
    I know it doesn't even matter what I say,
    but don't ya know there's gotta be a better way?
    I'm all alone, I'm feeling bad,
    I'm by my self, all I ever had.
    I hate my life, I'm such a mess,
    I wanna die, I'm so depressed.
    And every time I look at you,
    I know exactly what to do.
    I didn't want to be born, the pleasure all has died,
    so now I'm gonna snuff it with a suicide.

    **
    Suicide (the best!), no better way....
    Sit in a hot bathtub, raise a blade...
    and slit your wrists, watch your life fade to black.
    You have this power to kill yourself, called suicide,
    and no one can take that back.
    There is no better way to kill yourself than suicide...
    There is no sweater death...

    A better way..
    Suicide...
    A Better Way...
    Do it!
    Kill yourself!
