listen, what you are failing to realize is that not all minds are the same. just because you and i don't believe in suicide doesn't mean someone severely depressed doesn't consider suicide a logical option...Originally Posted by GTEK

This "it only matters if it hits close to home" logic is killing me right now.
Not to get to personal but yes, I've have had incidents of suicide within my close family
for those of you who uses that as their strong point in debating my opposition against such a act.
Suicide is suicide.
Whether its blood or a pedestrian...
it still doesn't adjust my leniency towards the action.

as for the dry snitching....
quit it with the child like tactics.
Fix your sig.
I was on my phone when I was posting earlier, and on my phone, NikeTalk has a white background. Your sig is white/red text on a black background, so I was already aware that you had an image and not text.
You can believe that or not, but you still have to fix your sig. And you can blame someone else for dry snitching, or you can realize that you're the one who was seeing how long you could go without being caught.
as if the net would stop people from committing suicide?Originally Posted by So Slickening
How much would their life cost to a family? I think the family would pay twice that amount to bring them back if they had it.Originally Posted by FrenchBlue23
Why would the city spend 50 -60 million dollars to accommodate these idiots who care for no one but themselves?

Suicide is seriously the most selfish thing that one can ever do. #**% is stupid, for real. You only get one life to live and you think your problems are bigger than family, friends, the world, the universe and all the amazing things one can see, do, hear, feel, etc in life.
Here's the thing you're failing to realize: not everyone has family that cares about them. I work with juvenile delinquents, and there's one kid at work right now whose biological parents are both dead (from different circumstances), and he was accused of molesting a little girl in one of the foster homes he was in when he was 8. He's now 16, been in 27 different foster homes, and he's about to graduate the program we have at work. For kids with traditional families, graduating the program I work at means they have completed their court sentence by graduating, and they can go back home, with their charges dropped (ranging from weapons possession, drug possession, assault, GTA, etc.). This kid is one of the few on campus that has NO charges, so graduating the program for him doesn't mean he's fulfilling a court sentence. It simply means that he can go back to foster care.
Foster care. He has been rejected by 27 different foster homes already, and his reward for graduating our program is that he gets to go back to this system that continuously bounces him around. And why has he been in so many foster homes? Because of two things: #1- because of the accusation from 8 years ago, and #2- he has issues with depression and hyperactivity. The last foster home he was in suggested that he be placed in a juvenile treatment program for delinquent behaviors, and his social worker agreed, so he was sent to us.
Now when he goes back to foster care, he will still have that accusation hanging on his head, and he definitely still has depressive episodes and hyperactive behaviors.
Picture THIS kid as a 25-year-old on the side of the bridge. He's having trouble coping with having NO caregivers to reach out to every Mother's Day and Father's Day and Christmas and everything. He can't stomach one more story of people getting all kinds of well-wishes on their birthdays when his birthday goes by every year without so much as a call. Maybe a friend from wherever he works that year buys him a round, maybe he just stays at home with his dog.
You tell me that your line about him being selfish applies.
"Dude, you're being selfish! Think about your family, and how hurt they'll be when they hear you're dead!" Yeah, about that...
"You have all kinds of friends that will be heartbroken by you being gone!" If you're expecting him to look back on this address book of people who he knows value him, you're basically giving him more reason to jump by not knowing anything about him, not knowing that he has struggled to form meaningful friendships his whole life, including adulthood. His address book is VVVNDS.
"Think of your kids and your wife/girlfriend." Right, because women are CLAMORING to fall in love with a guy who grew up in foster care and consequentially developed hyperactive, depressive behaviors and was accused of molestation as a young boy. You're sure this 25-year-old young man you're trying to talk down has a loving relationship to look back on?
You can't tell this kid to think about hurting the people that matter to him, because the entire reason he's standing there is because he's sick of not mattering to anyone, as evidenced by countless holidays alone or with people who tossed him a charity invite to their house because they know his situation.
Sure, there are people who are undermining how much their parents and wives and husbands and children love them, and your line about them being selfish works for them, but there are people who are fully aware that their funeral would have absolutely no one in attendance that was sincerely heartbroken and in serious mourning over their death. You might be aware that YOUR funeral would have plenty of people in mourning over your death as well as people pissed off that you put them through that pain, but your experience is by NO means universal.
I swear this is the "cool" thing to say on NT when it comes to threads like this.Originally Posted by mikeJordache23

I KNOW what it feels to not have %**# and that "feeling".
If you're using the part I put in yellow to support the part I put in blue, then it sounds to me like you know of someone who hasn't had $*+% and has had the 'feeling'.
But as for YOU knowing what that's like? Nothing you've said so far shows that.
Until YOU'VE been at YOUR most hopeless hour, where YOU get the feeling that YOU don't have $*+% to live for and YOU have that feeling that YOU matter to no one, then you can't say you know what all that feels like.
