Death... Suicides... etc

[wanadoo]

There is always going to be many different views of suicide but heres mine.

I agree with Leo in saying that taking your own life before the age of 18 is wrong but not for the same reasons. Before 18 and probably a little while afterwards teenagers are rash due to hormonal growth etc and at that age suicide really isnt an option to be considered, yet it is.

I think to have a well thought out oppinion on suicide you first have to look at the resons people do it. Bullying seems to be a common problem linked with suicide, i think almost everyone gets a bit of bullying in there life, physical or emotional, and it lowers your self respect and your outlook on life and over all makes you feel like sh!t. Bullying affects people differently, if the person who is getting bullied was already quite meek then they are less likely to stand up for themselves therefore it will continue and gradually get worse, now just imagine if you were getting bullied so bad that you started hating yourself thinking that the problem is you, you hate your life and decide to take it.

Going back to the fact that most teenagers are rash in decision making they might not consider the hurt that they will cause by taking there life. Thats why i think taking your life at young age is wrong.

Adults taking there life is another matter. Many people who take there life as an adult will suffer from depression, this is a mental illness and should not be considered as the persons fault. If the illness is being treated and the patient takes there life while being treated then it is obvious that the system needs to be looked, not everyone is the same and the reaction to medication will vary. I would even go as far to say that maybe the bad cases should be hospitalised. People with mental health issues can not always be held responsible for there actions.

So overall i dont think all suicide cases should be tarnished with the same brush, to understand you really have to look at the cause.

As to what skyline was saying about euthanasia (mercy killing) i think people who are extremely ill and there is no chance of recovery should be able to take there own life or get assistance with it but i also think that this decision should not be left to the patient i think the doctor/carer should have a part to play in even just to make sure that the person is making the right decision or not.

Well thats my opinion and i respect everyone elses.

i actuly found that very interesting to read, ty vm.

i dont know how any could commit suicide. id rather be locked up untill i die naturally than willingly end my life.

i couldnt imagine jumping off a building, knowing its the last thing you'll ever do. what a waste of a life.

now if i were very sick, mentally ill (even beyond blams level), i might consider euthinasia.

ill be using some of urs as an example (except for the blam bit).

farril do u mind me asking how old you are? or a age range at the least please.

Suicide can be justifiable.

Sure, you see kids killing themselves. That's wrong, and they know it. They've not even sampled the good life, and have already ended their journy. That is the stupidest thing anyone could ever do. Even worse than using a PC-Chips motherboard.

But Suicide can be a good thing. A person should have control over their life. But they shouldn't be let to make this choice in a highly vulnerable state.

If someone with a terminal illness wishes to end their life, then I would happily let them do so. And for the record, I also support assisted suicide, so long as the person who is about to die has made the choice rationally.

Suicide is for mugs, and tbh one of my mates commited suicde :/.

I only believe suicide is ok when no-one will be sad when you die and you have a good reason for it and have no reason for living anymore.
And everyone dies, you just have to accept it, sure you could spend your life searching for a way to make yourself live longer but there would be no point since you would have had a hard life.
Enjoy life imo.

about a month ago i was in town (scun-thorpe), walking by and there was this reasonably chubby, ugly looking goth. this girls (12 years oldish), said to her "why are you wearing black and look unhappy". this goth lass walked to them and shouted "because my boyfriend commit suicide last night thats why". then this other 12 yr old girl said "you must have been a terrible girlfriend".

i thought that was incredibly funny. true story too.

Apparently most vets commit suicide over any other occupation.

Yeh Euthanasia Im doing it in school. Not everyone agrees with Euthanasia Expecially christians They belive that god chooses the path they lead and should live it to Theyve suceeded. I think thats the main point why Euthanaisa is Banned in the uk.
Btw i based this all around What im taught at school.

Your school teaches hardly anything then. I haven't learnt about Euthanasia yet but I already knew everything you said above.

I disagree with the point you made about it being the main point to why they banned it in the UK. They wouldn't ban it just for the Christians or people who think it is wrong, there is an equal side to who think it is right, or there is nothing wrong with it.

I cannot say a reason to why they banned it as I have no idea, but I believe that there is nothing wrong with it, aslong as (I think someone has said it - Haven't read the whole thread) the person has chosen it is really what they want, and that they have someone who shall do it, dispite their feelings.
