Suicide doesn't come by cowardice, but by desperation. It takes a lot of strength to overcome the instinct to stay alive.
The suicide debate is always interesting. There are those that see suicide as an incredibly cowardly thing to do, and there are those who see people as having committed suicde as being brave. I repeated the above quote because I think it bears mention. Suicide isnt brave or cowardly its something that comes at the end of a really long and desperate struggle. It comes because the person can no longer see a way out of the cesspool that is their life. They mistakenly believe that if they are gone from life that can only make life a better place for everyone else.
Suicide is not a decision that a person arrives at easily or even readily, as the aove quote says a persons will to live is very strong and the choice to die usually comes after a very long struggle and the belief that things will never get better and despair that they cant stand living the rest of their life in this state.....Suicide is not driven by bravery or cowardice, but a desire to hopefully put an end to the indescribable anguish a person suffers
If you are suicidal.
I can understand that all encompassing, clods and cesspool. Can understand what its like to feel that there is no way out, and that things will never get better....... If you can hang in their a few monutes longer, the clod doesnt last forever, but when you are stuck in the middle of it, there seems like no escape.
Find someone you can talk to, if you have no one to talk to, you are welcome to drop me an
email. I dont propose to be able to fix any of your problems, but have been round the bush enough times to know the value of a non judgemental listening ear
