I am going to kill myself.

Actualy my earlier suggestions were a littl dull (even though for one that was the point).. I think i want to do this in a industrial tumble dryer set on 'warm' ...

You don't need to 'finish me off with a shovel' just add a extra 20 minutes to the cycle.

'i promise' yeah right ..

 

if i was gonna kill myself id blow my face off with a shotgun in the middle of a crowded shopping centre.

 

perhaps you ought to kill yourself too

have a nice day

 

im just downloading up in smoke after seeing that picture, i aint seen it for ages

 

It is still not funny

 

We should close this thread...I couldn't even read these through. Maybe some self-interrogation into their emotional maturity could help the people with less empathy and curb people possibly making assumptions that could be risky for others, i.e. Telling people to kill themselves. Come on. Move to another forum if that's as far as you can go. meanpeople.com is an option.

Even if it's only one person out of a million people who is serious about contemplating suicide. Can you live with yourself when you finally grow up and realize what you did...wrong? We're all on different learning curves...and I thought that's why we're here. To grow. To respect. To learn from one another.

If it's a waste of time for you then move to another thread...please.

Peace.

 

Gotta second that emotion; I thought this was a hippie forum; not nazis-r-us.

 

You'll be damn shocked when you realize how many assholes there are on here.

 

Bummed out, maybe; but not shocked. This is the internet, after all...

 

hahahahahahaha you are so funny hahaha and cool and all......

 

For a "hippie" site...
I was shocked.

 

I dont feel the need to.. I enjoy being alive.

However, the point of my post was not to be an asshole, meerly to state that if he feels he'd be better off, then he should go for it... why not? its his life to throw away, not yours... I could be like all the sappy individuals who are" you have too much to live for", but why? You don't know how HE feels. only how YOU do. or would in a similiar situation.
again, not trying to be an asshole or anything. just being the other perspective.. sure, why do it? is life that bad? maybe it is to him. hes entitled to do what he wants.

However, in reality, someone that really wanted to kill themself, probably wouldnt post it on the interweb, theyd just do it. its a cry for help ppl. dont be that nieve...

 

I've seen too many liberal/alternative sites overrun with right wing goons to be shocked any more.

 

never claimed to be a "hippie".... to me, a "hippie" is someone who dosent fit into stereotypes... so im sorry if my lack of ideals or maoral arent seen by you. at 38, id figure youd be a tad bit more clarvoiant..l..

 

Yes, it is a cry for help; it is a cry for support...the problem with that would be what, exactly?

If there's any kind of point to banding together, it's to give each other help, encouragement and moral support; otherwise there is no point; we might as well blather on about the latest episode of survivor for all its' worth.

It's perfectly fine to say "hey, I feel like life sucks I don't know if it's worth going on, give me some support"; the person who says that is better than the one who says "ha ha! weakling, i'll give u razor blades to kill urself with rofffle roffle roffle"

 

and for the most part, i agree with you. However, why would someone, anyone, post it on a forum?? try getting help, away from the computer... no one ever said.."ha ha! weakling, i'll give u razor blades to kill urself "... nor would I say that, meerly saying if he feels that it is time, it is time...

why reach out to strangers instead of the ppl in your life for support?

dosent make any form of sense to me.

 

If there's no one in your life you can reach out to; why not reach out to people "on a forum"? That's one of the positive points of the internet; many of us are surrounded by people who either don't understand or don't care about our point of view but through the internet we're able to communicate with people who are sympathetic, if not empathic, to our point of view.

 

im perfectly capable of doing good.

I do not feel im doing wrong. Im just not being "sympathetic" for someone who dosent see the value in their own life. how is that any concern of mine? sure, I, personally, do not agree with it. But if he dosent see the value for himself, whatever ppl say will just be a temporary solution..

 

well said. as I stated, Im not trying to be an ass, just showing the other perspective for building an awareness of truth. not everyone in the world will care.

 

After seeing your post I realised I was too harsh and edited that out. however, to answer your question "how is it any concern of mine" if it's not your (editorial 'your') concern why should you (or anyone else) step up to make things worse.

If you're going to step up, why not do good instead of bad; why not build instead of tear down? You're (again, editorial 'you') are expending energy either way; if it's really no concern you'll let the post go unanswered.

Things come and go, a splint is a "temporary" solution until a bone heals; whatever gets you through a dark part of your life is valid; even if it's support from other people. I think by reaching out he realises on some level that either he values things more than he knows, or he wants to change; I think he should be encouraged that he can change, that things can get better.

Sometimes you simply need to be told "it won't always be like this".

The assumption that he doesn't value his life I don't think holds true; if he didn't really value it he wouldn't seek out help or assistence. It's more accurate to say he's out of touch with the part of himself that values life and being alive. We all go through that, at some point in time or another. Hell, he may have a condition that will clear up with a few meds...it would suck if he died before trying that (assuming he wants to get out of the state he's in, which by reaching out it's fair to assume that he does).

People, though, both do not want to be bothered; and they want an easy answer; so they tend to jump on the "go die" button. But it's just as easy to give a quick post of encouragement, and it's even easier still to ignore a post one feels is simply 'attention whoring'.
