People who commit suicide are selfish...?
I have often been disturbed by hearing people say that those who commit suicide are selfish. And these people actually believe that people who are in such psychological pain are thinking "I really don't care about anyone else, I am going to take the easy way out." Who can believe that suicide is easy? Who can think that taking your life is an EASY way to go? And as far as caring about others...most suicidal individuals suffer for a very long time because of their concern for others. Suicidal individuals often try everything they can to feel better because of their love or concern for others. People who commit suicide often leave notes for those they love that express their intense apology and love. If they didn't care about how others feel would they leave a note? And what about people who want to die when they are in physical pain? Are they selfish too? Suicidal people feel so bad about life and themselves that they sincerely believe that others will be better off without them. Feeling like you cannot live another moment must be incredibly wretched. If people who believe suicidal individuals are selfish I would recommend spending a little time talking with those who experience this psychological dilemma. If they did I am sure they would discover that suicidal individuals would give anything or everything to not feel as they do if that was possible. Oh that's right they do give everything ...they even give their life!
