Why ever would a person commit suicide?


Question:
I understand the cause for the thought...but, what is gained?

Answers:
they are trying to escape their problems and the feelings they are dealing with...some may think its their only way out of their own living hell and others may think its a fresh start
Heaven
To be gone from this painful, cruel world.
nothing is really gained in reality. i guess they feel like they gain because they aren't alive, feeling the pain they feel that makes them want to commit suicide.
Some people feel so much stress and/or so much pain that they feel the only escape is death.
the end to severe emotional pain
its not the fact of ending life, it's the fact of ending the pain as a last resort
cause they cant live with life.
i agree stupid, but i am guessing it makes people not have 2 live with the anger, hurt or depression once again stupid as hell.
death. no longer having to deal with daily problems. I believe asking God for help is a better solution.
not feeling like **** i guess
They don't wanna live anymore. Once they die they would not feel the pain they are once they were living, obviously cuz their dead. Sometimes they are just so tired of living in pain they just wanna end it.
they get away from whatever is bothering them. it's tragic, though. especially for those left behind.
life sucks
if my suicide wouldn't cause problems for the people I care about, I might consider it
If u only have crap rreasons not to do it, you're screwed
Absolutely nothing is gained, but if you are in that frame of mind, you are not thinking coherently. A person commits suicide because they think life is not worth living, nothing in their life really matters.
they think it will take theire problums away.. but it only causes more 4 theire famioly
Removing pain and gaining pleasure are equal in value. Killing yourself removes your painful existence (you have negative happiness, killing yourself = no happiness).
peace/happiness. that's why often in the days preceeding suicide, a suicidal person appears to be happy, though that really only applies if the suicidal person is depressed.
omg these questions... all these questions. always questions, questions, questions.. never answers answers answers ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... BANG!
Thats just it, they dont think there is anything to be gained by living.
THE TRUTH WETHER YOU BELEIVE IT OR NOT : demons
In my opinion, suicide is for the weak, selfish, and sick. Weak because they can't face the realities of life. Selfish because they don't understand how horribly it affects the people around them. Sick because something goes wrong in the brain for someone to assume it was the only way out.
Why cause they have nuthing to live for. They probley have had a hard life and dosent want to stay here. their are a lot of thing i should know i tried but im all good and im right with myself so it you have any ?'s you can email me at stownie_420@yahoo.com k i hope this works for you
no one never knows whats going Thur a persons head that depressed, so that's hard to answer, but i hope if any of my friends were going Thur something they would talk to someone.
What's gained is death! Is ones life that bad! They dont think of what will happen to family and friends when they r gone! They r selfish only thinkin that ending their life would be happiness I guess! but it's not!
I had a friend who committed suicide, the only we all gained was heartache! :(
sometimes people have so much pain it seems that to get rid of the pain they have to kill their self. I you never been in that situation you cannot understand it. You won't feel empathy(which means to emotionally care) for that person.
depression duh!!
Some people cannot help feeling suicidal. Depression is not stupid, people that have it cannot help it! It runs in my family, you think I wanted it?
-Reply to some peoples answers...
Sometimes one will feel like there is nothing worth living for, that no one cares about them. Maybe for them, freedom is gained, they don't have their old life of sorrow to worry about anymore. But it still leaves pain for the people who did care for them, even though they didn't know that there were people who loved them. Once, I thought of committing suicide, but I figured that the next day would bring new hope, i'd never give up on my life.
it doesnt gain anything.
i mean, me and my friend both tried it.
and at the time you only think about whats bad in your life. and not what your goin to miss and whos going to miss you.
so for some people they try it because their scared and they think theres no way out.
i personally have never tried to co-mitt suicide, but i had a friend that did once. he said that it seemed as if no one listened to him and that no one really cared about his problems. the best way to reach some one that is talking about committing suicide is to let them talk to you about their problem. let that person know that you can relate to their issues and let that person know that they are not alone in dealing with their problem. Then please go seek that person some counseling...
