Suicide is a choice, who are we to remove that choice from people. When someone is so depressed that they actually consider and follow through taking their own lives I cant help but feel so sad for them.

Suicide is not a solution, it is an end before a solution can be found. A very dear friend of mine chose to take her own life last year, at first I was sad, then angry then guilty that I had not realised that she felt so bad, then I realised it was not about me, my sadness was mine but her nightmare that made her feel she had no options was hers.

I agree with Stropz, Those that make the poor me I want to die attempts well that is generally a form of attention seeking. Those that truly want to die just get on and do it. They tie up loose ends and very rarely do it spontaneously it is generally thought out and planned to the last second of their life.

Many people who for whatever reason fail suicide attempts are genuine in their desire to die at that particular moment but is rarely a thought out planned serious attempt. They generally do go on to do well when they gain the support they feel they need
