I disagree. suicide is being weak. Being defeated. Giving up. Pulling the trigger or jumping is easy. NOT jumping is what's hard...THAT takes guts. To turn around and say "I'm not done yet." I'm not judging, for I believe anyone has the strength to fight it, to overcome. I'm not saying "if you kill yourself your weak" What I'm saying is that you must fight for the strength to live through these times. I'm saying anyone can be empowered to succeed. Even modest goals are a victory.

If you kill yourself, then you've already lost before the battle was over. Telling yourself that you're done before its done is a sign of weakness. But out of weakness can rise strength, it will be the most difficult thing, and everyday will be a struggle, but one's character will shine through the ability to live another day.
Thank you.
