You CAN prevent suicide. Nothing ever HAS to happen, it's all decided by the choices we make. And frankly, some are good, and others are bad. It's keeping ourselves from making these bad decisions that can prevent horrible things like suicide. Support from friends also helps: if enough people voice their care and support, nobody has to feel lonely and unwanted. Nobody. This thread is a prime example of this - - a bad decision was stopped and nobody had to even be called back from the absolute brink of death. As a community, we stopped the unthinkable from happening to a real stand-up guy (looks at hybriddragon), and for that I praise everybody involved in helping with that. To all of you who may be thinking of the unthinkable, I have but one thing to say: Never lose hope, never forget who loves you, never forget who your friends are and always look forwards. Never backwards. It'd kill all of us to see anybody go like that. All of us. -JTP
Ok then, if you can absolutely prevent it, then why do people everyday, commit suicide, in radical numbers, eh? Because, in SOME cases it can be prevented, others, it's just too late. Therefore, they can not be prevented. Furthermore, I was NOT wrong, but niether were you. However, I was wrong in just saying "it cant be prevented", I should have said, "sometimes, it cannot be prevented". And for that I am sorry, cause I seriously confuzzled myself. I dont think before I type sometimes. Wow, for some reason this topic is getting me all depressed. [/b][/quote] it can always be prevented as long as you have someone to talk to. if you dont, theres always counselors and people like that.

Well ok then. I guess it can be prevented. But that yet again brings up another issue.... why dont people put in more effort to prevent it? Ahhhhhgggg. You dont have to reply to that. All this #### is just confusing me even more *secretly wishes her boyfriend were here to comfort her*..... :'(
okay, either.. 1. they dont think youre actually going to commit suicide 2. they dont care it just depends who it is

People have guts to stay alive when they're depressed. I respect those people. Not only will you lose your life, but you'll lose your respect. People do care. We have many groups set up to help you with problems. Don't ever think people don't care.
i wasnt talking about all people in general, just like people who dont really like you. i dont wanna sound like a jerk or anything, but if someone i hated were actually going to commit suicide i really wouldnt care. i know there are far more people who would care though. i was just saying those are probably the people who dont put in much effort to prevent someone from committing suicide. if i were suicidal, i really wouldnt care about what those people think or if they put in any effort to stop me anyways.
Some punk bands nowadays are mildly suicidal. Take 'Taking Back Sunday' for example. Cute Without the E is a (to me) suicidal song. It could influence people. [/b][/quote] I believe if a mildly suicidal person or just anyone in general who commits suicide because they were influenced by a song is just plain sad.
I shall say it again. *ahem ahem* DO NOT ATTEMPT IT BECAUSE IF YOU DO YOU WILL BE TAKING A HUMAN LIFE AND EVEN THOUGH YOU CANNOT BE PUNISHED FOR IT, YOU WILL PUNISHED SOMEHOW BY WHICHEVER AND WHATEVER GOD YOU BELIEVE IN.
...yeah... i know what youre saying is right... but i cant help wandering that there has to be a difference between killing somebody and killing yourself. in a way, i believe that you have the right to take your own life. but it is against the bible.
I think commitnig suicide shows how people are weak to get through certain problems...that 's the easiest way to avoid all the consequences...but I'm against that... Its just not right sollution.. Im allways for fighting, not giving up...If you have not right to take away other's life then you have no rights to take away your own... If you are not satisfied with your life you allways need to keep searchin for something good, something you can relate...Something that makes you whole...you know what Im trying to say? Dont think of killing...even yourself.
tried suicide before. glad i didnt do it. things are so much better now dont do it. seriously. things get better
