See my post above. The depression may well not be temporary, but the span during which suicide seems like a good option often is. It's not unfair to point this out.
- aaronblohowiak 17y agoI think that a person can decide they have had enough suffering in their life. I agree that often people are able to gain hope. It is unfair to categorize the problem of Depression as temporary because ephemerality is not an intrinsic quality of depression; the opposite is frequently the case.
- exit 17y agoi'm considering this option. what often stops me is the urge to punish the world for creating me on the way out.
- JabavuAdams 17y ago> It is unfair to categorize the problem of Depression as temporary [...] I'm not. I explicitly addressed this.
- Devilboy 17y agoThe depression IS the problem though, and calling it 'temporary' is what you're doing when you say 'suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem'. These people contemplate suicide every day of their lives. Trivializing the problem like that by calling it temporary is not helpful.
