So you're saying I should have sympathy for a person that is selfish to take the easy way out rather than facing thier problems. To screw up everyine else around them for the rest of thier lives because said person was a chicken shite?? Makes sense I see your point.

If you see the post I responded to he made a joke that's what i laughed at. I've had people close to me commit suicide very close. That doesn't change the fact that they were selfish. To give other people you care about grief for the rest of thier lives is irresponsible. When you've seen a mother hang herself in her 5 year olds closet or a son kill himself in a Dads bathroom so these people would find them among many other stories then your opinion will matter to me. Like most people you and the other over sensitive people in this thread have never seen one first hand nor experienced the grief of the people that find these people. You base your opinions on how people should feel and not the reality that these people are mostly selfish attention seeking cowards.

Long term solution to short term problems. There's always something more in this life. Never get hung up in situations that you can walk away from. And you can walk away from anything. Wait til God brings you home.

This

Prayers sent for his family. That sucks....

Years ago, my wife worked for a guy who owned a store. On the surface, he seemed happy and full of life. He had a ton of friends.

About once a month, he would lock himself in his office and wouldn't come out for two or three days at a time. My wife said you could hear him crying if you put your ear up to the door. When he finally would come out, he acted happy and full of life again.

After constant pleading from friends including my wife, he sought treatment for bipolar disorder and was put on medication. Still every few weeks he would lock himself in his office. This went on for years until finally he took a bottle of pills with a bottle of whiskey.

I have never seen so many people at a funeral. People were lined up outside to pay their respects. I've always wondered if he knew how many people loved him and if he did, whether it would have made a difference. I don't think it would have. The pain he felt couldn't be relieved by any outside influence.

Luckily, I've never been in a position to even consider killing myself and I'd like to think that I never will. That said, I won't judge others who have been unfortunate enough to feel that suicide is the only way to end their suffering.
