When someone says, “Suicide Is A Selfish Act”, the first thing that probably pops into your head is, “Dude, you’re full of complete shit.”
Yea, that’s what I think too. But we think about it, and we realize that maybe suicide is a selfish act, because your family and friends are left hopeless with unbearable guilt and pain.
BUT, The ones that say “Suicide Is Selfish”, ARE selfish themselves. You know how? Because they’re thinking about themselves. All they care about is their feelings, not the one who took their own life. You know damn well that someone wouldn’t kill themselves just because they wanted to cause their family grief and torture. That’s a pretty fucking stupid assumption to make about ANYONE. The one that killed theirself had feelings. My guess is that they were very strong feelings. About someone, themselves, or the world.
If anyone EVER tells you that suicide is selfish, tell them the exact same thing I just told you. Or, just slap the living shit out of them and tell them that the slap was from Riley.

ive said that it was selfish on here before because i was being told time and time again by family, friends and teachers that it was selfish so i actualy ended up believing them because i figured if i killed myself my family care so much that they would probably end their lives too. I think this because my whole family have been suicidal before and i know it would tear them apart so ide rather stay until i die natrually because life isnt going to last a thousand years and something good might be waiting for me and oneday i might say im so glad i never killed myself. Its like my friend commited suicide because he didnt get in the army and the next day his family got a phone call saying he had actualy got in the army. I think it just depends on the circumstances and their reasons behind why they would want to end their life. Looking back i feel pretty stupid for being suicidal but at the time i was in so much pain i tried a few ways to kill myself but now although life isnt good i know that it will get better because im only 16 and have my whole life ahead of me so i actualy do believe that i was being selfish. However if u watch emmerdale and jackson being disabled and paralised in a wheelchair and he was so unhappy with his life that he asked his family to help with assistant suicide and they helped him because they knew it would be selfish for him to carry on living as he would never get a good quality of life. So i do agree with you but i do think it depends on the circumstances. This is just my opinion and if you dont like it im sorry but thats just the way it is.
yeah, i know. you’re right. i realized after my last comment that i’ve been a total wuss for WAY too long. and taking the easy way out is no longer an option. i owe EVERYONE BIG TIME. if i want to finally do the right thing i have to forget about my personal safety and just do it. i just wish i knew exactly what that should be.
You’re right. Those selfish mother fuckers need to step in our shoes for a day.
oh i’ve been there a few times. although i’ve never wanted anyone to get harassed, beaten, starved, or cheated on because of it, i have rejected them.
I had a rant abut this, i belivie it was called “My Suicide Letter”
