RE: Thoughts on Suicide from Someone with Severe Depression Experience

in #writing8 years ago

Any suicide can be selfish, because little to no one is entirely void of relationships with others. However, calling them selfish won't discourage their suicide necessarily nor will it help solve the problem. What I think you've done well is identify a problem, but I think you're attacking it the wrong way. Perhaps try doing research on what is available out there for dealing with suicidal others.

Sort:  

I think you're taking my point the wrong way. This post isn't about the people who are committing suicide, there's already plenty of stuff dedicated to them. This is about the people that get caught in the cross-fire of someone else's self-hatred. This post isn't meant to solve anything, I'm just saying that it's selfish and ignorant for someone to kill themselves while also endangering the lives of others. The people around them are the topic of this post.

I don't understand what you're trying to accomplish with this post though.
