suicide

I'm 13 years old boy and I want to know why people commit suicide. I read an article about a girl who killed herself because of myspace.
Do you think it's normal?

LOL post the link Id like to read that
i remember that story, if I were the parents I would feel really dumb to have raised a child that commited suicide over myspace
People commit suicide for various reasons but mostly because they feel their are no options to there particular problem or problems and are unaware of the resources that are available-such as-the suicide hotline number that can be obtained in a phone book or by dialing 411 on a phone.
There is also the consideration of a chemical imbalance,the same chemical imbalance that causes depression and in in some cases both mental illness and chemical dependency problems
Because they're pussies.
they get so mentally messed up they think that death is their only way out.its sad when a young person commits suicide.

but i feel older terminally ill people have a perfect right to kill themselves instead of months of suffering and then dying anyway.
I remember a guy killed him self over a video game.
Well, you can believe this or not, but I knew a guy who killed himself because I wouldn't go with him. We were both 16 at the time!
@: nearly
Nearly you must have been a stud back in the day! Did you atleast go to the funeral?
tha=eya re depressed ppl and they deserve to die if they want it that bad
Oh really? So their friends and family deserve it too? If someone has a mental disorder that can be supressed with medication why not help them?
in south park people commit suicide all the time, i think about when i get grounded, i need to behave myself
It's quite simple, really. When death becomes more desirable than life to an individual, he or she may or may not make the decision to end his or her own life for whatever reason that may be. The reasoning may seem illogical to another individual, but it's still that particular individual's decision to make, regardless of whether or not you think it's right, wrong, stupid, or otherwise. Different individuals react differently to different situations, and some may kill themselves to escape such situations. I don't think such individuals should be looked down upon, but that's just my opinion.
I think people who commit suicide are clinically insane, and were all meant to die exactly the way they off'd themselves.
And what makes you say that?
he said pricktits hehe
sorry man, but genocide of the elderly is not a good idea.
yes...
yes what
Good logic there, but my name isn't Fred. I just use that name on this site. I'm sure your name isn't actually spam_javelin. If it is, then your parents are more fucked up than mine. In fact, I'm already sure they are for creating you and allowing you to live this long. They should have eliminated you a long time ago.
People who commit suicide wait until it's too late to get some help. If you know somebody like this, then try to help him/her out before it's too late.
My dad actually killed himself a year and a half ago. It was calculated. Planned. He never said a word, just one day my mom woke up to find a tape recording and a brief note, and then saw that he had shot himself in our driveway.

I think that people who claim that people who commit suicide are weak or pussies havn't dealt with a personal situation like that. So, if you go around claiming that you know they deserve it, or if you assume you understand your reasoning, you DONT.

I am sorry for your loss. It must be very difficult.
@: Potato
I am sorry about your loss also. Your right the people who run their mouth about it are the ones who take for granted its never happened to one of their loved ones.
