Perhaps we should reconsider how we view suicide. It is, after all, a "life" choice. We can choose to end our life or continue our life. Why should either choice be celebrated or denied? Suicide, like many other things, is a very private decision. Would you tell me to marry or not to marry someone? Isn't that an equally important life decision? Who should tell me what life profession to choose? What religion should I follow? All these are significant and important and very personal decisions. What interference should I allow in my life when I choose my own important decisions? This isn't what you were looking for but it is food for thought.

They don't know how to spell very well and they are ashamed. Should we put you on suicide watch?
