Default Is suicide 'the easy way out'?

How the **** is it 'easy' to shoot yourself, or kick over a chair with a rope round your neck.

I know it's an emotive subject, but I find that opinion disgusting and I'd like to open a debate about it.

The ''it's selfish'' debate is particularly annoying and heartless

It's a very sensitive subject. I don't think it's the easy way out at all. Sometimes it's a cry for help i think.

It is an incredibly emotional subject. I don't think anyone can say its an easy option...for someone to be so low that they feel their only option is to take their life is incredibly sad. I think it horrific for the family too, not only have they lost someone they love they have to cope with the fact that something was so bad they couldnt see any other way out.

I suppose it would depend on the person but suicide in itself certainly isn't 'the easy way out'. Anyone who says otherwise is an absolute moron.

I think it's best this thread gets shut down before things get heated.

That's really selfish. Why kill his wife and daughter as well?

Of course it's their right. Just as it's my right to challenge their ridiculous standpoints and call people exactly what I think they are.

Why? Because the only person I see getting particularly worked up about this is you.

I think the idea of suicide being the easy way out comes not from the act itself, but rather the fact that a person is not willing to fix or struggle through their problems.

It seems like an outdated view on the subject.

Not stupid. It's my opinion that suicide is selfish.

Why does that make me stupid? Because people view it differently?

...And we're just as entitled to challenge that. Or are we only allowed to be PC and leave the most idiotic comments because they fall into the category of someone's 'beliefs'?
