Commit suicide. I am not trying to glorify suicide, but I think it is acceptable if you have live a full life and are ready to go. As long as you are not leaving any responsibilites behind or using suicide as the answer to your porblems?

So, why would you choose suicide as an option? An option to what? I could see, perhaps, living with a terminal illness with which all quality of life has gone and each day brings more suffering. It would have to be an option only in very extreme circumstances. Anyone who has lived a full life would want to continue, unless there were severe problems preventing them from doing so. You would always be leaving responsibilites behind, unless you lived the life of a complete recluse and hermit. We truly don't realize sometimes, in our own self-absorptions, how much we really mean to others and that our existence is note-worthy, even if we might not think so. It's hard to understand why anyone would choose suicide as a solution to a problem. I can see being on drugs and you don't realize what you're really doing. Or being mentally ill and you have lost your grip on reality. And extreme illness, but even then, I don't know if I could do it, if it were me. It seems like such a cop-out. Life is so vast in scope. I would have to exhaust each and every avenue before I'd go the suicide route. It doesn't feel "right" to snuff out a life. I have trouble killing a fly! I feel we don't disappear forever anyway. There is the other side. We have to face ourselves here or over there. You can run, but you can't hide! From personal experience, I know that we are meant to be in certain situations and that we advance our souls through going through them. There's a purpose for everything. But the purpose of suicide? I see it as a test. Which some people fail by choosing suicide. They'll still have to face whatever it is they wanted to end. We are meant to experience this natural cycle of life and death and rebirth, perhaps if we so desire. It is somewhat beyond the scope of a lot of us. We should stick with it, and try to figure it all out no matter what. We must learn from others who have endured impossible odds. We are stronger than we think!

You should not even ask this question. Suicide is not acceptable at any time, life was to be lived and how a human decides to live this life is up to them. Suicide was not available at conception, this was created by a human who wanted to make their mistakes and then end their lives because of it, well the only way to avoid pain is to not create it. Suicide is not a cure, it is a stupid and very cowardly act. We as humans do not remember what happened before our births but we sure as hell are responsible for our lives now on Earth. Say yes to life because death will come soon enough.

Yes you are.
it's the easy way out for you, but hell for those left behind.
Fight to the end, or you've missed the point of living

I don't think anyone has the right to take away life. Even if its your own. Life is so precious. Yes things can get very bad sometimes but I read in a book once that was said "Life is only for just a small moment." I believe that with suffering too. For suffering is for such a small moment. compared to the eternal aspect of time

carbon monoxide poisoning. relitively painless... i don't know if suicide is acceptable, though- it's very selfish. think of all the people that are hurt and lives that are torn with guilt after a suicide. even someone that thinks no one cares always has someone.

You could vote for Democrats.
That should assure death at the hands of Islamic terrorists sooner than later.

theres isnt a reason to kill yourself.. thats rediculous... people are an emotion race and generally enjoy socializing with others. to remove yourself from them for no reason is pointless, there are still friends and family who would care, always new things to do, children to raise, music to hear, elections to vote in, technology to explore, why would you want to leave and miss out on what new things are coming,.. id never kill myself.
