Im wondering if any of you have lost someone to suicide ? or considered it by yourself?

P.s : I added a poll so you can remain confidential if you like, but i honetstly would like to know....

what you think about suicide ?

why people try it ?

tough subject...There is but one truly serious philosophical, psychological problem and that is suicide. Judging whether life is or is not worth living amounts to answering the fundamental question of philosophy.
Some ... just suicide themselves because they think that everything that they are doing is not enough, when they have a family and financial problems, when they have a health problems and see that is not accepted by others, when even if he/she is young have passed through many problems and comes a moment when you say that you can't handle it anymore and find as the last solution the suicide.
I know and read cases when some did it just of curiosity, too see what happens. Here it happened that a child of 9-10 years old just hand up himself because he heard that someone from his village did it and he was curious about the feelings, stages you are going through when this happen.
Most of the cases happen when they don't see anymore a way of getting out... is like drowning daily...every day you get lower and lower in the water until you don't see any light and then comes the suicide. All I can say is that hope, faith in God is the major weapon against the suicide impulse.

Teen suicide is becoming more common every year in the United States. In fact, only car accidents and homicides (murders) kill more people between the ages of 15 and 24, making suicide the third leading cause of death in teens and overall in youths ages 10 to 19 years old.

Thinking About Suicide
It's common for teens to think about death to some degree. Teens' thinking capabilities have matured in a way that allows them to think more deeply - about their existence in the world, the meaning of life, and other profound questions and ideas. Unlike kids, teens realize that death is permanent. They may begin to consider spiritual or philosophical questions such as what happens after people die. To some, death, and even suicide, may seem poetic (consider Romeo and Juliet, for example). To others, death may seem frightening or be a source of worry. For many, death is mysterious and beyond our human experience and understanding.

Thinking about suicide goes beyond normal ideas teens may have about death and life. Wishing to be dead, thinking about suicide, or feeling helpless and hopeless about how to solve life's problems are signs that a teen may be at risk - and in need of help and support. Beyond thoughts of suicide, actually making a plan or carrying out a suicide attempt is even more serious.

What makes some teens begin to think about suicide - and even worse, to plan or do something with the intention of ending their own lives? One of the biggest factors is depression. Suicide attempts are usually made when a person is seriously depressed or upset. A teen who is feeling suicidal may see no other way out of problems, no other escape from emotional pain, or no other way to communicate their desperate unhappiness.

Suicide is just the weakness! Nothing else!!!

Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem!!
