It has to be discussed because it takes the lives of an increasing number of people!
There isn’t really much I can say on the subject as the thought or desire has never crossed my mind, but in saying that it is something I can understand.
Before suffering with my depression and anxiety I never understood people that would and could take their own lives. I considered them cowards for not facing up to what ever it was that drove them to it, probably a crime or similar and selfish for the pain it would cause those left behind.
Well actually neither of those apply to a person suffering with mental Health! The feelings faced in that state of mind ore those of sheer desperation, loneliness and despair. It’s easy to feel the world would not miss you, after all you contribute nothing. You sit in a crowded room on your own, so what difference would it make.
Taking your own life under those circumstances isn’t selfish it would just seem to make sense.
