Yes they are. Materials used for safer, less painful suicide methods (such as helium) are made purposely hard to get. Plus the authorities will lock you in a psych ward if they find out about your intent.

This seems...kind of obvious? No one just wants to die for death's sake. That wouldn't make a ton of sense. People kill themselves because they view it as the best of a set of bad options.

They pay their teachers significantly less than other states. Especially after you factor in the cost of living (FL is not nearly as affordable as people in NY/CA think it is). According to these sources, they're 4th lowest in tea

"The education system isn't highly rated overall so you'll have to choose carefully if you have kids." This is an understatement. Virtually everyone I knew in Florida who had kids sent them to private school. These weren

I was told that in the early stages of dementia, it's good to challenge their unrealistic beliefs, but in the later stages its best to go along with them. Middle and late stage dementia patients are basically in a constant state of con

Claims there's an "LSAT boom", but provides no stats shows that's true. This post is obviously just advertising their tutoring services. I don't know why anyone would want to go to law school in today's age. A

Ugh, I hit reply too early and the client I'm using doesn't support editing comments. I'm busy at work and OP is probably not going to change their mind, so I'm leaving this.

Most of the countries ranked low on that list practice arranged marriages with no premarital sex. Is this what you're advocating for? Because I'd bet most Americans and Europeans don't want to live that lifestyle. For some ST

That only makes sense if you assume the purpose of the test is to correctly apply logic rather than guess the actual number of Elephants in Germany. Someone who's not familiar with standardized testing may assume the latter is more imp

Your being sparky and you really haven't shown you understand the topic you're talking about. If you think OP is wrong, refute them with facts.

Most ADHD meds do more than just increase dopamine. They at the least increase Norepinephrine too, and may mildly affect serotonin. Plus we still don't fully understand these meds so there may be other things they're doing, or the

I mean, is the problem that people aren't _motivated_ enough to find a partner? That seems unlikely given how much you see people complaining about not being able to find a partner online. It seems like people want a partner, but somet

12 steps work great for a lot of people, but we need to be careful not to push the narrative that it's a cure-all for addiction. 12 steppers often act like it is and blame the addict for not trying hard enough if the 12 steps don'

OMG, so much bad advice in this thread. The best advice here is the comment telling you not to listen to us. You're not going to get good advice from strangers that know nothing about you.
