Exactly thats very true, thats why I try to practise kindness, positivity, humour, politeness etc. I was driven to almost taking my life multiple times because of what people said to me in the past and I've heard of people who did because of that too.
You and
@Kurozumi Wiwi are completely on point, we need to create an environment for people to feel and be safe, to be able to have a "happy place", an escape and be able to be open, unrestrained about how they feel, how they're suffering and feeling alone and helpless and such. I know we have a venting thread and those do help but I wonder what more we could do too?
This is so extremely sad and cruel. For a person to be driven to this, especially one with such an innocent mindset at least from whatI knew and perceived of him too but still, for anyone to experience such despair, such darkness, such horror, that they feel they have no choice but to take their own life and exit this world immediately, that is something utterly indescribable, horrifying, morbid and tragic.
I feel so sorry for his family and anyone who was close with him. I can't even imagine their pain. What stopped me from taking my own life, well the biggest reason was knowing I may end my own pain and suffering but as someone said (it was a certain celebrity, I forgot who, a rapper or so), when you take your own life, you are not just relieving yourself of your pain but you're transferring it to the ones who remain, the ones who get left behind and have to grieve/mourn you and live with you being gone.
I'm not blaming the ones who do take their lives either, far from it, I'm one of the last people who should too and god knows, its because of other people, especially my own relatives that I've spent most of my life wanting to take my own life too but on the other hand, I can't bring myself to cause them a kind of pain only a truly evil, irredeemable, wicked person would consider inflicting on them and especially enjoy too. A pain that will never go away and always make you feel like it was your fault, that you failed them, you let them down and you could have done so much more but also at the same time, wondering if you drove them to it, that it was your fault or not.
Fuck man, if I ever see him again, I'm going to give him the biggest apology I could ever give, even not just for my own sake but for others too, for not being able to stop him from doing this and knowing he wanted to but also that he was just driven to do it in the first place. To take that truly, ultimately fatal step of no return.
Well said anyway
@AverageNamiEnjoyer I could not have said it more concisely myself.
