This was posted by recklaz:

My friend tried to kill himself yesterday and i was wondering you guys here in anand have felt about suicide

Unfortunately it got locked, but a disscussion on the subject would be interesting...ie not a poll making you admit anythingFrom my experience with others, there is always an aquaintance who has attempted it...

Post your opinion on the subject and what keeps you going.

Personal Opinion:

Suicide is stupid plain and simple. You're going to die anyways.....might as well do something interesting while you're here...become a doctor, an engineer or a teacher etc. Remember that there are always others in the world that have it worse than you do.


Recklaz...I hope your friend is alright.


<--still on his journey to become an engineer


Unfortunately such a serious
and sensitive topic is best not
discussed here.

im sure almost everyone has thought about it once or twice, and even less have devised plans and even less have actually tried.
theres always something better than suicide..

Yeah, I'm pretty sure most people have thought about it, possibly when they've been under a lot of stress or something.

My science teacher used to joke about it in a way and said that since you're going to die, you might as well die now. Hes the one that made me write a 2000 word essay by hand on kudzu and emu because I was sitting on a desk. 1,000 words for being out of a SEAT and 1000 for sitting on a desk. Oh well, if I was a girl, he wouldn't have said any of that... bah!
