You must be the most retarded person on Answers
I don't believe for a second you believe what you are saying
I know a few people who have committed suicide and for some their lives were a mess with no obvious way out. Others you wouldn't have ever guessed they even had a reason to do it, they were clearly ill.
I am sick to death of ignorant people saying "it's the cowards way out". To override your inbuilt sense of self preservation because you truly think it would benefit others if you were not alive is probably the bravest thing you can do. Misguided by mental imbalance yes but brave all the same
Would you honestly lay down your life to benefit others ? No you wouldn't because YOU are the coward, hiding behind your bullshit question.
Why don't you get out there and do something to help someone in trouble instead of mocking their misfortune you selfish ignoramus

I am not sure if suicide can be described as pathetic !!! I think someone suffering in whatever way to the extent to be driven to suicide needs to be pitied. Their live seems so unbearable at the time, that this seems to be the only way out. The feeling of no worth and a burden on family/friends is very real. After a suicide the re -maining family/friends experience a variety of emotions, sadness, pity, guilt and loneliness. Family / Partners live for the rest of their lives with the question:- was it my fault?, could I have prevented it? No one should experience the hurt and sadness of a suicide within their midst.

Well you've obviously never had to go through the pain of losing someone.
My wee cousin was an amazing guy, good looking, extremely talented, popular and had a lovely girlfriend.
He hung himself in his bedroom, his mum and sister burst in the door and found him.
Are we all pathetic for missing him then?
Are we all just supposed to say 'well **** him' and get on with our lives?
Dont you think that we are entitled to grieve over such a huge loss and wonder why we could'nt help him - why we didnt realise something was wrong?
Someday this pathetic question of yours will come back to haunt you.
Someday you will feel a pain so unbelievably raw that nothing in the world can calm it, nothing that anybody says or does can consol you.
Then will you say how pathetic is it to grieve for someone?

My best friend committed suicide when I was 19 - gassed herself in her car on New years Eve. Yes she was an emotional person who let things get to her, but she was brought up by a family who believed in material possessions rather than family love. Her long term boyfriend dumped her that night, she was totally dependant on his love and support and when he did it I suppose she felt she had nothing to live for.
For someone to feel that taking their own life is the only thing they can possibly do is not pathetic at all, it is sheer desperation.
Her mum, dad and sister have never got over it and will probably blame themselves for the rest of their lives. Her boyfriend was wreck for ages as he said it was his fault.
I lost a friend I had known for years and grown up with. I don't moan and whine about it, but every New Years Eve is a reminder of what happened and you just can't forget that even when everyone else is celebrating around you.

Thank you to all who answered this with sensitivity and love. I lost 2 brothers to suicide, and this poor poster doesn't know the deep raw devastation the survivors go through as a result of the decision of their loved one to take their life. It's a pain that oftentimes wells up seemingly out of nowhere, just to punch you in the gut once again; and once again you grieve.....you are never the same as a family afterwards. I don't believe you ever totally get over it, either.

I think that is a bit harsh although I do feel it is a selfish act and has such devastaing consequesces on those left behind, I take it you have never experienced the loss of someone to suicide as the comment you made aboout those left behind is awful, death is death whatever form it may take and the grief will be the same.

You really know not of what you speak, and by the way, what have you done that has made you deserve to be the "unfortunate" creature you appear to be? Must have been really bad!!

Have you ever thought of what those people are suffering NO you are so involved in your own life you cant see suffering.
Maybe you do but block it out and probably you are suffering now this is your way to feel you are normal.
And to put this question out makes you like them you described so are you talking about yourself peace to you.
