I've had several friends who commited suicide and tried it a time or two myself. Yes, it is a VERY DARK PLACE, a place without hope. However, I believe when you ARE in your right mind, you need to prepare yourself with the knowledge that suicide will hurt those around you more than your freeing them by dying. Also, as an aside, some people do kill themselves just to hurt others and that is the epitome of selfishness.
exactly how do you "hurt" the ones you leave behind? I see so many folks looking at suicide from their own selfish self centered perspectives. Do you honestly believe that people in enough pain to actually end their life sit around thinking, gosh how the heck is DORIS going to take this? They see nothing but Black in front of them.
