Suicide is a fundamental human right. This does not mean that it is morally desirable. It only means that society does not have the moral right to interfere.
They tell us that suicide is the greatest piece of cowardice... that suicide is wrong; when it is quite obvious that there is nothing in the world to which every man has a more unassailable title than to his own life and person. If someone wants to clip himself off, it's well within his rights to do so
I am fine with suicide and individuals who commit the act.Quote:

It is not up to anyone no matter how well they know the person or what the felt about the person to say it's right or wrong.
I should say that what happens in anime and real life are extremely different. Anime tend to be made up. Real life . . . isn't something you can fake.
I wouldn't want anyone to commit suicide. In my younger teenage years it might have just been the hormones racing and everything, but I was suicidal, and I honestly still suffer from depression. It's become a daily struggle, but something I deal with. I'm fearing its starting to take over my life again, however.
Anyway, because of my past, which also includes self injury and other damaging habits like doing drugs and drinking, I want my life's work to be to help people who feel they are alone and have no way out. I'm devoted to being apart of organizations like TWLOHA and Hopeline or Lifeline, and use my studies in photography and my hobby in writing as vehicles to further the cause.
Whether its right or wrong doesn't matter to me. What matters it giving someone the chance to start helping themselves and give them a chance to live again.
that's exactly where i stand in a world where murder is not OK but preformed like a household chore suicide is the same murder or not it may not be a right but it is done whether we like it or not and to tell you the truth if you surround yourself with people that DON'T want to die then you should be fine to live your life with out the nonsense and troubles of somebody canning themselves if they want to live then then YAY but if not then oh well let them be free!Quote:

i know that suiside may seam like the the onli chose when tings go bad but dont freat it will all turn out for the best for example if your girl leaves you dont kill your self like the saying goes thers more fish in the sea :D:
I also think people take things to the extreme, as pointed out by Trojan... "I'm going to kill myself" is used to flippantly in our society in every aspect. There are people who literally use the suicide card to manipulate others into doing what they want them to do. I have a friend who always buys into that because she's too nice...
Same thing goes with the "I'm gonna kill you." phrase. People are scared that some psycho might actually do that. Emotions drive a person's thoughts, do they not?Quote:
