I must say I respect Zaruna's opinion and do agree with the logic in some ways, now the delivery leaves a lot to be desired but some of the logic is palatable.
If someone is so convinced that life is so horrible, and will never change, to the point of suicide is the only option, there is nothing in 10 WORDS you can do to change that...it will take many YEARS of therapy and a DESIRE from the person to actually try and make it work.
MOST people that announce they are going to do it are truly crying out for help, because they do not really want to go through with it, or just want the attention. Most suicides that occur are completely random, friends and family are usually not even aware there is an issue.
As for the "strength of people", there is no template that states how emotionally strong people are, some are stronger than others....some break easier than others. I myself have been in the situation used as an example here....I was once homeless, thousands of miles away from any family, who couldn't afford to help even if they were 5 feet from me, with only the clothes on my back.
I stayed in a shelter for 3 weeks before landing a job at a car wash and getting my own place, 10 years later I now own 2 car washes.
Not once during my homeless bit did I even breathe a thought of ending it all...so generalizing people based on what their life like at that moment is not accurate. Being homeless is just YOUR worse case scenario.
----Edit----
On a side note....does no one here believe that a person is in control of their own destiny? Only they can make their life either livable or not? I understand there are times where mental issues are beyond your control, even in those cases sometimes people use the diagnosis as a crutch....
Just curious.
We all want to our friends to kill themselves and obviously don't want to help them...
That's a horrible translation lol
My mum got to a point where she was going to commit suicide. Me and dad were by her side the whole time reminding her reasons to live. We got a dog, and his companionship is what pulled her back. Billi is more than just a pet, Billi saved my mum.
So yeah, telling my mum to stop being a lil witch didn't work.
I'm not getting into a discussion about why my mother decided to not kill herself but having something to mother again probably gave her something to live for.You clearly didn't read. I said that's to the people who use it to attention seek, which is mostly the case when they let a person know they're thinking of doing it. For a person that's really considering it, less then 10 words would never work. Is there a reason for me to reply to this thread with less then 10 words for people who are actually that far gone? Ofcourse not, it's ridiculous thinking less then 10words would do, less then 100words won't do either.
I can't even imagine someone getting to that stage. Not to be offensive to your mother, but she has a daughter, she has a husband yet a dog turned her life around? To those people harsh words would actually do the trick, they got to snap out of it, life is a gift. Don't get weak minded and think of taking your own away, while others beg and pray for their loved ones to have a long and healthy life.
As LordDemon asked : Since when is misery a competition? Some people suicide being bullied at school, do you think that's misery? As I said before, alot of people are weak, but for them to do it would to strong people never be a reason to do it... So no, not a competition. it's just that people end it for idiotic reasons, and if they were to live on in heaven or w/e you people believe in, they'd probably regret it real fast.
@severithe : Don't worry about the dislikes, his circle of friends are 10-18 year old Fiesta players, 80% of it is emo and probably wrote on skype that they're about to kill themselfs and now feel he got experience. Sorry sir, but everyone knows those kind of people, usually girls. They feel like the world is against them once a week.
Just a few questions out of curiosity:
If someone is in so much physical pain that they want to die because living is a worse prospective, do you think that's an OK scenario? I mean if there is nothing that can be done about it...like cancer...have 2 months to live but in severe agony and sick to the point of death from Chemo.
Does anyone believe depression and emotional agony is any less to the point that it provides a quick and painless end to something someone sees as equal to physical agony?
Last question: Does anyone believe that friends and family (outside of little children that still need support) have selfish reasons for wanting to stop said person from taking their own life? IE: What will I do without you? I will miss you. ect ect.
These are questions out of my curiosity and not aimed at anyone in particular or based off any examples used within this thread.

I love how some of you are disliking posts you simply don't like/hate, Obviously everyone had a different pace in life, Some have a tough way of showing that they care because that's what they also got- not everyone had that' loving and caring person to talk to/depend-on at their very emotional state.
But obviously we care because we've been there.

Kind of Childish, You do know that this thread was made for opinions right?
Yes and I respect that fully. But from what he wrote, it was more a less what he meant.
