I hate threads like these. They always bring out stock opinions with very little thought. You give a massive shit about some poor sod killing themselves, yet if they were alive you wouldn't care in the slightest. Wouldn't give them the time of day. If someone wants to kill themselves, go for it. They shouldn't be demonized. There are far too many people in the world anyway.
Of course if you're young you should give life some more time to impress you, and if you're a parent you owe it to the kids you forced into this world. If you don't fall into one of those two groups, go nuts. But try to be inventive. I'm getting tired of the bullet/head combination. I want to see 5000 paper cuts/tongue.

I couldn't. Unless everyone I loved left me to my fate, I was in unbearable pain every hour of every day, and there wasn't any chance at all, whatsoever, of getting better, I wouldn't kill myself. Though that's more for said loved ones than anything right now.
This works right up to the point the choice is actually offered. Its all well and good to ask and get answers, but people dont really take into account the gravity of a situation like that. Some people make it sound like its something they do before the go to bed, or during their morning routine. The absolute truth is that there is no way to get an answer to this question until your actually IN that predicament. Because on the one hand certain death, on the other, certain death, and survival instincts arent going to be happy about either.Greyfox105 said:
Oh and you would be a martyr anyway, no matter which way out you choose. He/she said the chances of you dieing are negligable (not entirely sure how you spell that one) and that your going to die anyway. Just a point, you'd be a martyr anyway because your going to die.
OT: I wouldnt know, like i just said
PS, what is it with the escapist forums? Every other topic seems to be about death or anime, i mean it doesnt speak well for the community as a whole. Not that i really care, but its just a bit wierd.
I nearly committed suicide once, I thank my friends for talking me out. If it's against an unstoppable force then no because there is something I can do
Lack of food or water then maybe but I would keep going because it could a chance that he next few steps will lead me to water or food
Torture? Ha, I would be enjoying it...

I wouldn't kill myself. If there is a chance, a chance no matter how small, that I would survive. I'd actually take that chance. And even if there wasn't(weren't?) one, I wouldn't commit suicide out of sheer stubbornness. Plus, suicide is for cowards. There is no way that it is ever an option. One of my brothers killed himself. I love the f***ker to death, but he's still a coward in my eyes.
[edit] Oh yes, forgot something. THERE IS NO UNNECESSARY PAIN! Pain is painful for a reason. And to be able to take it is a virtue.

I have tried once in the past by a hanging. The rope didn't snap my neck and I passed out from oxygen deprivation.
Woke up on the floor very confused.
In the future if I ever plan to kill myself, I'll do it properly with some sort of firearm.

I've become a shut-in, in fear of the Sun trying ot murder me with his deadly beams.
Wait I'm off topic. No I would not commit suicide, that is a coward's way out and not a very honorable death (if I may say). If I am to die I'd prefer not taking my own life.

Eh, I've never been in that situation before, so I don't know. What I do know is that when pushed to it's limits, the human mind can extraordinary things. Therefore my answer is a grand and resounding...dunno, maybe.
I say it's better to die quick standing on your feet fighting, than it is to die at your own hands.
I doubt id take my life in any situation i dont think id be able to and its much easier to give in than to keep on fighting plus you only live once so id keep on going.
If I was absolutely certain I was going to die... then I'd get The Old Mmph Mmph and WASTE THEM CAPT0RZ
In all seriousness, yes, I probably would.

If it means suffering less than being eaten alive by zombies or bleeding to death with my legs blown off, then yes, a bullet, a grenade, a guillotine, anything to accelerate the inevitable. I mean, if I know I'm gonna die, why would I want to endure anything painful for longer than I have to?
