suicide

no wait,
i saw this documentairy a few months ago about ASH,
alt.suicide.holiday, where people could talk about it
without being judged, this actually stopped a lot of users.
so you should be careful with judging: i think it's not too
helpful to say to someone who's suicidal he's selfish, that
won't do to much good

also, since it's good not to see the fun side in everything,
i'd like to quote seinfeld on the subject:
i can't understand people who try to commit suicide but
don't succeed and leave it at that, while you just found
another thing you suck at

but what is a person who
commits an act that you deem selfish, but selfish?


This isn't necessarily so. For example somebody who kills
another person while suffering from mental problems (eg.
schizophrenia) isn't a murderer, they commited the crime
without really knowing what they were doing. This to me is
an act of murder, but the person cannot be classed as a
murderer in my eyes as it was something they would not have
done had they not been suffering from a mental illness. You
may not agree with my views but I think they are justified
:D

in my opinion, the most respectable action one can take when
encountering a suicidal friend, is to let them know you'll
be there if they need someone to talk to.
otherwise, the mere action of trying to make the suicidal
feel guilty can make things worse.

Suicide is week I find. If you want to do it just do it but
your being a retard for so many reasons. First people usally
kill them selves cause they want a SENCE OF RELIEF. Guess
what ? When your dead you can't feel relief ... your dead.
WORM FOOD. Wouldnt you rather see your problem resolved?
There are solutions to everything. I mean if someone is
making you depressed why should you kill YOURSELF. Leave a
hugeshit on the hood of their car or something.

Being depressed is mega normal. You eventually get over it.
I just got a call from my buddies mom yesterday, apparently
he did a mess of Heroin and tried killing himself. Hes all
fucked up in the hospital right now and cant have visitors.

I blame it on a chick he liked. Girls can be fucking evil :
)

What I usally do is if something makes me overly happy or
there is something really cool that I like I write it down.
When Im really fucking out there depressed I go to my list
of stuff to do and I always forget about all the shit Im mad
about.

If you want to express yourself

then go ahead and do so,
but that's
what I pulled
out of your previous post,
since that's all I had to go on.

not everything in this world of decision-making necessarily
follows a 'good' or 'bad', 'right' or 'wrong' path.

and yes, it seems to make more sense that if you haven't
experienced that which you cannot understand or fathom, then
you probably should learn 'about' it instead of passing
quick judgements 'towards' it. :)

i'm inclined to give oxygenfad some slack. because actually
people who want to commit suicide should generally not do
it: there is light at the end of the tunnel most of the
time. a lot of suicides (or attempts) are done to easily,
only when your chronically ill or depressed, should it be an
option. that is why i dont like the too easy use of the term
pro-choice: the person concerned is not in too much of an
riliable state to make that choice on his own, thats why i
adhere the listen/normal conversation approach.
furthermore i dont want to blame oxygenfed for a somewhat
naive approach to the subject: the relief aspect makes some
sense, and crapping on a hood of a car therefor too.

echnadniarb, the act you described yourself as the
preferable choice to suicide for you, of killing "as many
other people" as possible before being taken down or taking
yourself down is infinitely more selfish than a suicide on
its own. Yet go and use the selfishness of the act of
suicide as your primary attack on it.

I for one share the view that it is a very selfish thing to
do, it hurts those the "suicider" (as george dubya would
call him...ugh) leaves behind in this world.

Your words are sick and disturbing.

*zen*

Well I've thought about suicide a lot.. like if I will ever
do it, how, where, and when. It still is my... "back up
plan" so to speak. I am a really fucked up person. I don't
feel like a real person most of the time. I can't say what
WAS wrong with me, if anything. But I used to be full of
inward and outwardly directed hate I think. Now I'm in a
second phase of life where everything has changed for the
better, but I'm left with a hollow shell for a self. My life
now is just entirely empty and pointless and full of
surrogate activity such as posting here. Since I've entered
this second more stress free phase, my plan for suicide has
changed. I'll probably just keep existing in this
pointlessness and then only commit suicide when I'm like, 60
or 70. It's gotta be better than old age. I also want to die
among nature, not be put through the same industrial process
the majority of the civilized dead go through. A terrible
thing is when someone's pet dies and they throw it in the
trash. It's dead and can't feel I suppose, but it just seems
sickly disrespectful. Well I've since researched the way I
would use if I ever did: a .44 mag with a hollow tip shot
into my brain from the side. It's quite scary but I think I
might eventually do it (when I'm 60-70).

What you describe is a matter of aesthetics really. I think
you should try to view thing a little more objectively. You
really have convinced your self that post-industrial
civilisation isn't a part of nature.... well it is...it is a
part of nature and nature gave birth to it. Just accept
things for what they are...

familiarity depresses me much more than alienation ever
will. the premise of fate and predictability and therefore
loss of control is uncomfortable if thought about too
deeply. i think most erratic behaviour can be explained by
this thinking, although unfortunately a reaction to an
action becomes as predictable and you can spend years
bouncing around wondering where the fuck you are or you
should be. conditioned reponse and instinct can be
controlled somewhat by creating your own time, forcing
boredom on yourself if necessary.

that is true.. humans are part of nature, therefore the
society we have created is part of nature, including all the
cars and buildings and bukkake and Hitler and gameshowhosts
and Marilyn Monroe etc. etc.

That's an insightful comment. I've thought about the natural
and the artificial a lot. The latter has lineage in the
former, so from one paradigm they are the same. But I
frankly feel ill programmed for this environment. This makes
sense because my genes were selected for an environment that
is long gone. Or maybe this is a delusional excuse to cover
for the ill life that I have wrought upon myself. I seem to
love animals and their way of life before the human
catalyst, or similar catalyst for life on a different
planet. I don't know what I think. I'm done.
