Would you kill yourself if your family weren't alive to make you feel guilty!


Question: Do we all stay alive because we can't bear to put our families through the grief of suicide? If we had no parents to worry about upsetting (and no children) and maybe only a couple of friends who would totally understand why we did it and possibly even join us, would more of us depart this depressing, trivial, insignificant, pointless, endurance of a life by opting for the welcome relief of guilt free suicide?

This is the main reason I'm still alive.

However, there are other reasons so I don't know if I would or not. It would certainly be so much easier without the constant idea of guilt on your mind. It's not fair that people should have to feel upset because someone killed themselves. On the other hand, it's not fair that they should have to continue in their pain just so people won't feel upset.

NEVER KILL YOURSELF!

First, I'd go ask someone what suicude feels like, then make up my mind.

I do not believe in suicides.

Seek professional help immediatly.

Yes, immediately.

I think suicide is selfish. Also, I wouldn't want to go to Hell.

Yar... never kill yourself. Not a smart thing to do. I'm sure there is those calling services... I'm sure it'll help a lot.

good question! ive seen this a lot lately: suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem

You need Help !!!!

Yes. When I'm at my worst I tend to say I hate everyone who loves me because I can't bear to hurt them by killing myself. However, remove that factor and I'm all over it.

No!!!! Suicide is bad!!! I don't get why people do it!!! It's so stupid. It's like you could do something else besides that. You could take out a loan and go to college, get a great job and be rich and make millions. And don't say it can't happen, because it can! So think about what you can do besides suicide. Because suicide is giving up. It's telling everyone who ever hurt you, that they win and you lost and your not going to try anymore. And you don't want to be known for that, so go try your best at school and just be nice to everyone and everything.

I only stay alive due to an extreme fear of the physical pain I'd likely have to endure during the dying process. I couldn't care less about how people might feel when I'm gone, as I won't be here to be subject to the guilt and its evolutionary purpose. If someone offered me a completely unconscious, painless way to die, I'd shout with joy and never look back.

No

I value my life too much to want to end it over anything that might be temporarely there

You might find things hard from time to time
Only focusing on what is bad will make you further depressed and feel like life isnt worth living

Example of how to make things look positivly

A personal Example

Was working for a major firm, things got stressful and difficult for over 6 months, I choose to quit at christmas, no money but presents to buy and loan to repay, car got broken into and had to buy a new window.

Found a new job 2 weeks later and now earn 1 1/2 times over my last wage, better value given to staff and care, holidays abroard often given out, bought a brand new car and looking to buy my house

So 6 months of hell yes
But now I have things far much better

So would i do it again, cause I would because I left at the time there was jobs going at my current place, even though I left not knowing about the possition.

So everything can happen for a reason and things can be viewed in a possitive light

Relationship problems
Money Issues
Car Problems and then loans etc
Leaving your job
Moving out

All can be seen in a possitive light
You just need to look and focus on the possitive more than the negative and you will find life a lot better

Another example
Mates asked me out once to a nightclub as a big speed garage scene was going on, that night me and my mate had a dispute and I stayed in

Sad part - missed out on a good event

Possitive part
That night the police was called to the nightclub because there was a stabbing in the club which could have been me or any one of my mates, and there will be many more events out there that i can go to in my life


Also you might wish to seek help about this professionaly rather than talking about it online with people who may not be able to give a professional opinion.

AND
People who tend to talk about suicide dont tend to leave notes etc, if they are that desperate to end life they just do it not talk about it to be talked out of it, They never want to be saved they just want out of life. Those people who do talk about it tend to crave attention as they feel neglected.

I know your talking hyperthetically and you didnt say you was going to commit suicide but hopefuly this helps clear your views up on things and you focus more on living life

All things must pass...George Harrison

No because I'm terribly afraid of death, I'd never have it in me to kill myself even if I wanted to (which I dont).

No, not at all man...People love you dude. I love you and I don't even know you. Sure this life is full of bullshit at times, but There is always a brighter day ahead. Yeah people suck. If you are thinking about death, Take a trip to Iraq and see just how screwed up life can be, or even something more practical; Spend one day in the Urban projects of Philadelphia and see how hopeless and screwed up some people's situations are.

I'm sure that you have had some really serious drama in your life to feel that way. So have I. The best part about it is that through it all, we're still here, and we still have the chance to make things better, for us and people like us, who feel like there's no way out.

You'll be okay man. There's something wonderful in store for you. All people, who are destined for greatness, go through tough times like these. Just remember.....

The past is history, the future is a mystery, This moment is a gift, that's why it's called the "present".

First I want to comment on other remarks about saying its selfish etc. How can you make remarks like this: Have you ever felt so completely in the dumbs there was no solution? Try living the lives of those who are bipolar, manic depressant etc You have no Right to comment on such a sensitive subject if you've never been there!! Anyways I would first seek professional help talk about any options i have, try and make others see what I am going threw and if they can help me with my healing and then if there was no other option then Yes I would.

I had family--parents, several brothers and sister, a child, friends--when I overdosed in January. The worst part was, I reached out to everyone, begging for help. The response I got was that they were too busy to deal with it. My sister had a date so she couldn't help me (she's married and the date wasn't with her husband). My mother had terminal cancer and did her best to get someone to help me. My brother had to make a drug run. My other brother grabbed a beer and said, "Yup." My other brother didn't want anything to do with it. My father refused to believe my calls for help. Even when I went to the ER they just treated me for urinary tract infection and let me go.

I guess I just figured no one wanted me around (I don't remember the overdose). I suppose the moral of my story is, with family like mine, not having them around would probably make suicide a moot point. Actually suicide is a moot point for me now anyway. I enjoy life now. Even when I'm exhausted from stress. The overdose did get me the right diagnosis, and that has made all the difference (I do not recommend overdosing on a fatal number of pills as a means of getting the correct diagnosis--it leads to hallucinations, seizures, nasty charcol, nasty after-effects of charcol, nasty headache you can't take meds for because you've damaged your liver--not a good plan).

Yep, I've felt like that for years.

No I'm alive because I'm too much of a wuss to go through the pain of suicide... I mean, its death... it MUST be painful!

I would not kill myself as i have got bipolar thats manic depression, i had low two times in the last 13 year were i and i tried to comit suicide four times but something in the back of my mind said stopped me your family and friends have got pick up the peaces, so you have got to talk to someone, I was walking my dog through my local wood about a year ago their was a man shouting as i got to him he was hanging from a tree but it had gone wrong for my so i help him down and he thanked me i said why did you try to kill yourself he was very depressed.

Seriously there are only two people in my life who really care about me..my only friend and my mom. When/if I ever lose them both I'll probably kill myself or come very close to killing myself. Life's shitty most of the time already..I would not be able to enjoy it at all without my loved ones...it would be completely pointless and insignificant. I have no one else..no friends as I'm terribly socially anxious.
People always say suicide is selfish, but it can't be if you're leaving no one behind.
