I've killed myself seven times, and I would gladly make it eight. :p

Is this really the best thread topic you could muster?

Maybe he was asking of those who attempted suicide?

That is a legit question, something i would be interested to find out as well.

I have no idea how many people would reconsider upon being given a second chance... but if I were to commit suicide, I think I would have a valid-enough reason that I would do it again, unless under other circumstances.

Kind of hard for someone who committed suicide to reply to this post whether or not they would do it again.

I don't remember the exact statistic, but somewhere around 2/3 of all poeple who have attempted suicide attempt it again.

I don't think many would turn back, they had a reason for doing it in the first place.

I find it hard to believe that there is any reason good enough to do such a thing. Maybe people do it because they don't feel like they are part of something, or that they have let people down and things would be better if they weren't there for others to deal with.

Couldn't tell ya, haven't every really had the urge. Would've been way too chicken Shyt to even think about it. :)

I do though agree with death for me if it were to save someone else's life. Would gladly do it, given no other way out. I'm just not so sure you'd call it suicide. There would have to be someone giving you that choice.. you or another.. basically homicide right?
