RE: Why Are People So Anti Suicide? - RPicard - 12-17-2009 I've actually thought about this same thing. There's no real reason to be living anyways so if you're done with it, be done with it. I don't think it's a good idea to do it out of depression as that is something that will eventually pass but if you just don't want to go on with life, no reason to force it (unless you have people who depend on you for their lives).

I would jump off of a high cliff. I want my last emotions / feelings to be as intense as possible (That feeling in your stomach when you're falling + contemplating your death + the wind rushing around and what not would make a really intense scenario).

Right, but depending on how fast you fall and how far you fall, you may or may not survive. I'd rather jump in front of a train to ensure my death.

It relates because what you do directly effects other people whether you know it or not. As a simply smile to a stranger could make them uplifted for the moment. I knew most wouldn't get the quote or by who. It was by a famous African American who was the first to play baseball for the major leagues. Also, was an activist for the civil rights movement. You gotta think abroad. The big picture. Not just that one life. But, the possibly hundreds they effect. RE: Why Are People So Anti Suicide? - Elektrisk - 12-17-2009 Right, but how does that affect us? If I am having a direct impact on someone's life, for example a significant other, then I might care. But, if a stranger relies on me for self-confidence, then maybe it's better off I'm gone; then he'll learn to get it from within himself. I just don't see how we're obligated to live our lives in accordance to our effects on random people, as you have suggested.

As this whole thing is just a giant opinion, technically no one is right. I seem to be the only one here who has experienced a death in the family in regards to this subject, so it effects me differently.

A train is actually less certain because if you jump wrong, trip, jump to early, or jump to late you could just end up getting your legs run over or something painful like that.

You're not the only one, and as same as my grandma died by natural death, I also made to overcome the loss.... I lost many loved people by many different reasons/situations/causes and in the end, yes you'll miss them as hell but if you don't get along you'll end up bad!

I can only agree, but I would more jump out of a plane, free fall all down the way... and maybe speed trough some clouds (ohh man how I would like to do that!)

Just stand on a high stool "or something make shift" about 5 to 8 feet higher (the higher the better) put a slipknot around your neck and kick it. Snaps your neck instantly. Also keep in mind how much you weigh. The more you don't need to be as high the lighter get way up there.

Plane would be much better. I was going to say that you couldn't get someone to bring you up in the air for that purpose but you could always just go skydiving and take off the parachute in the air. Much better idea. RE: Why Are People So Anti Suicide? - Elektrisk - 12-17-2009 Quote:I'm talking about a serious cliff.

But for example, if you WERE to do it via a train, you could assume any of these positions: facing away from the train with your spine curved, so the train directly impacts your spin and snaps it. or, face the train headfirst and slightly ben, so your back is curved and you are looking at the tracks. I assume the train would hit you headfirst and if your skull didn't shatter, your neck would at least snap. |
