I would make a poll, but that isn't an option. :P Let's say you're in this critical situation where some terrible thing happens. Would you do it?

I'll only kill myself if I run out of people to eat.

Maybe. I'm terrified of dieing. I'd have to completely lose hope and believe that I was suffering or about to suffer a fate worse than any death.

I'd need more specifics on an actual situation that might warrant that option. Though I can imagine there would be a few where I'd take the suicide route, yes. Like if a situation left me in terrible constant pain or with paralysis from the neck down, I wouldn't want to live like that.

Yeah, I guess if you have all your limbs chopped off and you survive, you'll be like twice as strong.

I'm sure I probably would if I felt it was the only option. I've attempted once before and I've considered it on many different occasions, and I didn't even have anything life-threatening or absolutely horrible in my life.

Sure. If I were paralyzed (Locked-in syndrome), or in a situation similar to the one portrayed in "Johnny's Got His Gun", I would wish to die.

Romans considered this act valiant and brave back then. Takes a lot of gut to kill yourself in unimaginable ways.

He said kill yourself, pretty sure that would them be killing you, and if not.. You wouldnt have the choice to kill yourself anyway. There goes my "on the brightside" 'phrase i guess :P

Look at it from this perspective. Living your life even though you may not want to is even weaker. If you can't off yourself because you're too afraid to hurt peoples feelings, then you are weak. In another manner, you are weak because you succumb to society instead of following your own path.

Yes, I agree, if it's ritualistic suicide like seppuku, then it's bad ass. It's also for the most part water against a stone in terms of creating change in a situation, and so in a major respect, useless. This guy is a good example.

I think most of the suicides, however, are done by people who are too depressed to function properly, and not smart enough to seek help. They are a sorry lot, full of selfishness and woe. They hurt people close to them by the mere fact that they act so unloved. They eventually die by their own hands, as a last act of selfishness, and continue to hurt the ones that loved them far after their own intolerable pain has ended.

Weak.

Weak.

Many suicidal people do try to seek help, most are just too embarrassed/shy/scared to just actively go out and tell someone "I want to kill myself, please stop me". The people around them need to step in when they see something is wrong with someone. That's what many suicidal people want, for other people to actually pay attention to and care about something other than themselves for once.

But would you even be aware of your circumstances in that situation? Or would you have it set up in advance like that episode of Seinfeld?

If you're afraid of a brief moment of physical pain, you probably don't have a very good reason for killing yourself.

I hope one day you can take them more seriously. I am not going to argue about what you believe in, but, I hope one day, you can see them differently.

Yeah me too. Not sure though, this is coming from very personal and intimate knowledge of such a thing.

Weak.

Who said that the help would benefit them...some people can't be helped...that's the ideal...

If they feel unloved maybe it's because no one actually loves them?...

Or maybe the person they love left them...there are too many variables to make a generalization like that..

Selfishness..? Maybe not..it all depends on the situation..

Actually the term "Suicide Thread" in the rules refers to a thread containing highly offensive material (i.e. porn) made with the sole purpose of having the OP's account banned.

Threads ABOUT suicide are acceptable, I believe.

I doubt I will. I will go on a killing spree of young men who walk about in sports wear gear and walk like they are holding two invisible rolled up carpets, baseball cap or beanie and ugly gold necklace. If I reached a point where I stopped caring, I use it to my advantage to do the things I always wanted to do.

I have been very depressed on occasion and all that but I would never commit suicide because of something as minor as that. Not trying to undermine anyone's problems but really, life is wonderful. Dying sucks, man. IMO. Someone mentioned Johnny Got His Gun, if I had a condition like that I would perhaps think that.

I'd never kill myself. Unless it would save others in the process.

Snipes_2

That's not suicide, that's sacrifice. But interesting point. If the choice came between me and a group of people I don't know, no matter how many within boundaries I wouldn't have to think twice about my choice. Someone I love quite dearly however... I don't really know. Probably?
