Am I horrible because I cant say I feel genuinely sad when someone commits suicide? Although I understand that you never know the extent of someone stress and depression, I feel like there are alrernatives. Try to heal the source of the stress or depression, talk to someone, shit BEG for help. So many people die in accidents or at the hands of another person, I just cant. My friend just texted me an article of some guy who killed himself on FB Live. like "this is so sad." I didnt feel anything.
Eh I'm kinda indifferent to the suicide thing. All I can say is I've hit rock bottom several times in life but never contemplated taking my life.
And some people just aren't mentally all there so who am I to judge or whatever.

Well, none of us chose to be here, we were put here.
And I feel it's a choice that's made that one no longer wants to be here.
In this world we live in, it's understandable why some may feel that way.
These recent events have seriously made me reconsider having kids.
I understand the things that may cause someone to, I just felt really insensitive in that moment and Im wondering if anyone relates. Im not saying one doesnt have the right to end their life.
I don't understand it.
I want to live forever. I don't want to miss anything
I feel like if I died I'd miss so much and I would be pissed
I feel similarly
But I think some people are just -- WEAK.
Not everyone can tough things out, so they do what they think is a way stop the pain for themselves and everyone around them.
But 99% of the time I feel nothing unless I had some connection with the person and could semi-understand.
That has yet to happen.
I don't really see the problem though. Everyone's moral compass is different. You're not obligated to feel sympathy or empathize with something you don't necessarily relate to.
No. The only thing I don't like is negative criticism of suicide.
Esp. trolls that like to tell the mourning family how weak they think the person was

I think that mortality is the hardest thing to accept.
The fact that we're only here for a relatively short period of time....and then we're gone...and the world keeps spinning! :cheerup: A "next?!" mess owt :usureuok:
It really humbles you, though.
And THATS why we invented heaven. whew
I do feel bad for the girls that do it and think there's a Happily Ever After
A lot of people say that but would rarely offer to help the individual if they could.
Factor in the turmoil of dealing with a possible mental illness(something that some people wont understand) and you can understand why its such a hard situation to judge.

True. Its weird because Ive pep talked 3 people in my life who've come to me with that :uhh:
I heard about the dude too. I'll admit- I don't really have much experience with suicide. I have never had such thoughts and, as far as I know, none of my friends have either. However, I'm usually more sympathetic with the family and friends of the individual. They will have to deal with the consequences everyday. I'm still unsure at to why he put it on Facebook live though.

omg is that what people are using these apps for?
Brandy's Human Album honestly saved me from ever attempting to. People are different and it doesn't necessarily make them weak.
I don't have much experience with suicide but I sympathize with it. We all have a finite amount of time here so we should enjoy it while we can. Can't really say or judge why people choose to commit suicide but I don't necessarily see them as weak either for escaping whatever problems, illness, etc they're going through. Some people just can't cope.

Man I saw a Fb live video of a guy lying in the street after a car accident, face gashed up, narrating what was happening and checking his angles :uhh:
Have to admit, the fb live part of this suicide probably made me feel even more of nothing. I despise an attention seeker, no matter how far you go to get it. Not saying this guy was a stunt queen x100, but I dont get broadcasting that...
I don't think you can judge unless you're in their shoes.
and that's not directed at anyone here.

!!!! Like, what am I supposed to do, hit like to keep you from offing yourself?
I definitely sympathise with "traditional" suicide but the social media aspect of makes me sick to my stomach. Firstly, I don't wanna see that shit on my feed :uhh: secondly, this moment is forever gonna be on the net for your friends/family to relive over and over again :uhh: :uhh:

I truly believe it's a mental illness of some kind so I always feel bad, I guess. Idk .. its just upsetting all around, and mostly I feel for their loved ones, cuz whether they believe it or not, there's always at least one person that cares or one that would, if they'd just try and let someone in.

Except the ones faking
I don't believe its mental illness all the time. I recall watching the news some months ago about a story on a 5th grader that committed suicide because he was getting bullied everyday at school. The bullying was so bad the bullys would actually wait outside his house for him. His parent didn't know what was going on if I recall but the 5th grader wind up taking his life. His parents found him in his room.
Speaking of mental illness kinda sad how blacks don't take it seriously or think you can just pray shit away. :dead:

im so sick of people thinking that prayer fixes things like the government and mental illnesses.
I have so much sympathy for them.
I can't imagine what it's like to be in so deep and dark that you feel like killing yourself is the best solution . Leaving your entire life behind . Like how horrible and low do you have to feel to want to do something like that?
It's extremely sad..breaks my heart.
I can't imagine feeling that lost and that far down the wrong path in life that quitting seemed like the best option .

Faith without WORKS is dead!
Takes more than prayer for sure. A lot of black don't realize that.
But Prayer and a connection with God is extremely important
But then again I couldn't imagine myself in a 9/11 situation
I'd probably go LEAPING out the window too if I knew it was the end either way
I'd prefer a quick and easy tea

I definitely sympathize.Now with the actor who committed suicide, news outlets are reporting he was arrested on suspicion of sexual assault before the suicide.And the crazy part, people on his IG page want to see the video of it.

The way I look at some people lose reality and feel alone and they cry out for help, but no one ever really steps in to try and help and that person may be too embarrassed to actually ask for help because there is a prevalent mentality that you shouldn't show weakness or allow someone to see you in a weak state, so these people have to deal with wanting attention but also not wanting to seem weak and it all builds up and when they do decide to go for suicide they do it in an attention seeking way because it's their last attempt for someone to notice them.

Jay Bowdy.Shot himself on Facebook Live yesterday.He was an up & coming actor.And was on Big Brother.
I just found out yesterday that my best friend from undergrad committed suicide. He was the first person I met in freshman orientation and we instantly became like brothers. We lost contact after we graduated, and since I'm not on facebook I had no contact with him for like 3 years. It's sad because he was one of the most intelligent person I've ever met. We used to smoke and sit for hours talking about really deep shit. And now he's gone. He was neither weak nor selfish. Apparently like 4-5 years ago he got ahold of some bad ecstasy and it fucked him up. I don't know the medical diagnose, but he was different after that. He was one of my best friends during an important time of my life. And when I came out to him he told me "you're still my brother" and he drove up to campus and we got so fucking loaded. It's sad that he's gone, but I'm happy that whatever was haunting him is no longer an issue. Miss you Osirus.
I feel like life is a precious gift from God and when someone's commit suicide it's like they not showing no appreciation for the gift that God gave you granted we are gonna go through some difficult times in life but there is always a way to over come or get through them and most of the times it's us that bring the problems on ourselves but you have to be a strong/determined individual to do it.
King why? :'(

Suicide is being selfish, unless it's a forced situation
it's like thinking how bad your life is, but not how your loss will impact others
or how still being alive could help others, there's always something to live for if you have the choice
It's makes it hard for me to be sympathetic besides to their family/loved ones

i feel like its def' a mental disease tht takes hold of those rlly goin THROUGH
but i do sympathize
I felt that way until my neighbor/family friend committed suicide for being gay bashed. That was so sad because he seemed to be the most happy person. Ya never seem to truly know what someone is going through until it's too late.

What's with this "selfish" talk? Isn't it more selfish of the relatives to keep a highly suicidal individual suffering just for them?
I mean if I lost all my legs and mess I can't guarantee for anything. Sometimes a struggle can overwhelm you.
