    Because you are not the centre of the universe. There are people around you who love you and would blame themselves if you killed yourself.
    And because you are not the centre of the universe- so stop thinking that way. If your life is bad, get out into the real world and experience how much worse it is for the poor, who have no hope. And guess what? You can give them hope.
    There is one person out there who is waiting for you to begin the great work you were put here to do. To help them pay for their children's education, medical treatment, to pay $100 so that they can start a small business and get themselves out of poverty.
    You think you can't do it? You CAN. Raise $100, give it to Opportunity International, and ask them to give you a rundown on how they spent it. Once you see how much you can do with $100, you will raise another $100, $50 or $25 and then you will raise the money for a journey to visit the people you have helped and wow....you will find that you love your life, because you have found a purpose.

    My husband of 8 years shot himself in the head on Oct 26 of this year. He always said he loved me, and we had many good times together. Some bad times came recently. He made some bad financial decisions, and lost his job. I supported him and did not pressure him, and told him that we would do what we had to to get by, I even picked up extra shifts as a nurse. I have to assume that my husband must have " hated his life" to do this. But what about the horrible pain I have felt of loosing my life partner, the man I built my life with? I've had to put our house up for sale and move in with my mother, I have the horrible images of his brains all over the kitchen where I found him, his parents are devistated, as well as all his friends, no one had any idea he would do this. He ruined my life on a lot of levels, I will never be the same. I had to get a lawyer to sort out his debts. Maybe suicide is not unreasonable when you hate your life, but doesnt someone have any accountability as a decent human not to leave this kind of devistation to a spouse they always loved and loved them?

    Because this is the coward's way out.
    If you're not terminal in constant agony with no solution then you must fight to better your self and salvage what life that you can, even if you think it has no value.
    The mundane joys of everyday life are what makes like worth living and the unexpected thrills we get from life make it truly an awesome and rewarding experience.

    you should have a better reason than you hating your life. everybody hates life, to an extent.... yes, even those who laugh and seem happy everyday (that would be me).... yes, those people hate themselves too. so, i don't think that you should just kill yourself for hating your life. actually, suicide is not the answer. if you hate your life so much, you should try to make it better. go against your beaten down mind that keeps telling you to end. Prolong your life.... stretch it out, live it, enjoy every god-damn minute of it. go out for a run, exercise, scream, yell, cry, breath, work, volunteer, help someone who's worse off then you, etc. DO SOMETHING ELSE than think of yourself and whatever misery you're in. I promise that if you get through this, you are made invincible and can get through anything. I promise that you will one day be so thankful that you're alive. I challenge you to fight your feelings to end it all and instead fight to live it all. If you want to kill yourself because you see no point to life, you obviously have not seen all there is to life. there's so much out there for you to do, so quit thinking about killing yourself. the world is calling for you to discover it. GO OUT THERE. I know you're stronger than to kill yourself. I know you can win this. I know it.

    Because it prevents you from giving yourself a chance to love your life.

  • Suicide is not selfish, what is selfish is people who are emotionally dependant on everybody.

    I'm 39 married with 3 children. I became pregnant again AFTER my husband's vasectomy. I feel trapped. I have no family willing to help me with my children. I have a Master's degree going to waste and a borderline abusive husband who can't or won't work. My oldest child has asperger's disorder.
    I don't love my husband and feel trapped. I also suffer from depression (runs in my family) and bi-polar disorder. I think suicide is the only way out for me.

    It's all I can do to not lash out at you and the others I read on here moaning about how awful their lives are. I have incurable cancer, diabetes and high blood pressure from expossure to Agent Orange while I was in Vietnam. I do everything either my doctors or I can think of just to grab one more day of living, and here YOU are moaning and carrying on about how awful your life is. Lift your eyes and take a look around you, pick a direction you think you might like, and then give it everything you have. Find new friends. Start a small business. Hitchhike to Kathmandu! Do SOMETHING besides laying around feeling sorry for yourself!!!!!

    You don't rightly understand life OR death.

    Life, because you probably linger in the past or daydream about the future.

    Living is ABIDING IN THE PRESENT.

    Death is something you've never experienced. Be one hell of a good laugh if death was in fact a reset button...

    ...and you'd have to start your "miserable life" from the beginning again.

    And again.
    And again.
    And again.
    And again.
    And again.

    It's not. It's your choice. Nobody but you can possibly know what you feel.

    I´ve been asking myself that question for a long time now...And i came to notice that they all say "Because of how your family and friends will suffer.It´s selfish". Ok, good point...They are happier now that i´m alive and completely miserable...Ain´t that selfish too? They don´t do a thing to help me but still, it´s best for them than if i shot myself dead.
    In any case we are both selfish. And honestly, the only thing that keeps me from trying to commit suicide is being such a freaking coward...not my beloved ones.

    It's probably the ONLY time suicide is reasonable.

    Who contemplates suicide when they're loving life?

    It's not. It's your life and your choice. Ignore anyone who tells you differently.
