Also, Omniscient declined my proposal to have this stickied. Apparently it needs more links to professional services because it can be stuck.
Images aren't working there.
Nice OP. I'm sure it will change people mind.

Also, I think people should not neglect the fact that for every suicide, 10 others consider it. Suicide is selfish, don't think of it as a way out, it will cause people you love to be harmed too. There are better ways to deal with any issue; suicide is never the answer.

Suicide is a desperate act by someone who is in intense pain and wants their pain to stop. That is a HUMAN response to extreme pain, not a selfish one.
Saying that a person who had severe clinical depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, PTSD, or a similar illness was engaging in an act of selfishness when they died by suicide is not only inaccurate, but downright cruel, to both the deceased and suicide survivors.
People such are yourself that use the word “selfish” are merely helping perpetuate the disbelief associated with suicide.
A suicidal action that manifests from intense, excruciating, unbearable pain associated with a serious mental illness has nothing to do with selfishness. Period. It frustrates me when I hear people making such comments, especially when they're oblivious to the facts at hands. Think about what you're going to say before you say it.

Suicidal people don't have that sense of reasoning you have. That's the difference because you and someone who is ready to pull the trigger.
