Selfish? We are talking about people in great pain and you are laying guilt trips on them. That is emotional blackmail.

I didn't mean outsider as in you don't get hurt by this. Suicide effects all those around. The living suffer. I understand that completely. I never said it was caused by a disease. You are 100% correct. It is by a failure to control a disease. But don't be angry with us. That's like being angry at me for having diabetes. It's not my fault. And the poeple who suffer in an illness that think that suicide is the only answer because the illness is keeping us from thinking clearly? Anger towards us is not the answer. Some people can never think to think of suicide. Good for them. Some poeple like me have thought about it alot. Enough to cloud my judgement or lack there of. When I was having my out of control mood swings right after my last strong attempt I would swing every few minutes. A chemical misfire would go off in my head and in 1 minute I could not see tomorrow. And I would think of driving head long into the truck in front of me. And in 1 minute later I was fine and happy. Don't get mad at the victims. Anger is misplaced pain and I understand it. Friends and loved ones of suicide victims have to carry that baggage. And I am sorry for that. But anger towards the victims is uncalled for. Really be more adult than that. Try to be compassionate

I understand your anger. But it doesn't help. Not one bit.
