People attempt and commit suicide for a variety of reasons. Often a suicide attempt is a cry for help and attention. Others end their life rather than face circumstances they consider to be worse such as debilitating terminal illness. A person considering suicide in the first scenario probably has a distorted frame of reference to their problems and possible solutions. For example, a person might consider that a suicide attempt will show everyone or specific persons how serious their problems are and that they should not be/should not have been ignored. I once was told by a counselor, that suicide may not necessarily be rock bottom as far as individuals facing depression are concerned. These individuals in a way are still capable of relating to others, and attempting to gain a response albeit in a extraordinary way. Beyond this, an individual may have little will to live, but no particular energy to pursue the end of their own life. They simply don't care

Many reasons. For some, living is just too painful and they seek oblivion. For others they get messed up on drugs and don't know what the heck they are doing.Then there are the youngsters who get dumped by their boyfriends, and know the location of daddy's gun, and Boom.
Normally it is not just one reason, but a combination of reasons, all blended together...and too much to handle.
If someone you love talks about ending it all, for God's sake listen. Sometimes all it takes to get someone to back away from the edge of the emotional cliff they are standing on is an understanding ear and a friendly, reassuring hug.
I know. I tried to kill myself. I don't know if I am overjoyed that I am still here, but I am here, and am trying to do my best in all I do.
Grin. My cats are glad I am still here because I change their litterboxes, feed them, and play with them :)
My fiancee is glad I am still here because I do the same for him :)

Suicide is a very personal thing. The reasons can be many & varied.
Usually they feel there is no other way to stop the physical &/or emotional pain that they are going through. You just don't wake up one day & say to yourself " I think I'll kill myself today" without a lot of pain & anguish preceeding it over many days, weeks, years.
It is the ultimate personal decision which, unfortunately, causes a lot more questions, pain & anguish to those we leave behind.
If you are considering this yourself, don't. Talk to someone first. Please.

because life keeps dumping on them and theyre looking for a quick way to stop all the pain. what they dont realize tho is that they're is no going back and that they probably had someone that cared about them but them just didnt think things thru long enuf to realize that.

Because they feel there is no oher way out of their problems. They also may have some guilt that is so bad that this would be the only way from it.

They feel like they have nothing to live for. They think that life is too hard and they are not strong enough to deal with it.
