I never condemned anyone, nor did I say that I support suicide. What I support is the ability to choose freely the course of one's life. I'm curious to know what percentage of the general population suffers from mental and/or substance abuse disorders, in comparison with that 90%. And no, I have not known anyone personally who has killed themselves, at least not to the best of my knowledge. I do know, however, that I myself suffer from a number of "mental disorders" and at one point found myself a good bit suicidal. If someone close to me did kill themselves, of course I wouldn't just say "ah well," that's being unrealistic. I'd be just as affected by it as if they got hit by a bus. My views on death are much different than most, though, so regardless of the manner or intent, it wouldn't affect me anywhere near the same way as you. No position changed, you lose your bet.
