The point of suicide is to end suffering, not commit to a happy predictable retirement. If you ever have a moment in your life that causes you to contemplate it, you'll understand. Otherwise, I personally don't believe people like you should be making decisions for those people who do. You have no understanding of what it feels like to consider that as actually being a rational thought.
- morpheos137 5y agoNothing about life is rational. I believe I "contemplate" suicide frequently but I have no inclination to do it because what good would it do me? Suicide is self-murder no matter how we sugar coat it. If we reach a point as a society where murdering ones self is condoned why wouldn't that make murder of others less severe? If life is not sacred then it seems to me that murder becomes more like a property crime.
