And he becomes an obituary in the newspaper of thousands of other vets, a morbid reality to those who find his remains. We're less for that.

I've always liked "suicide is a permanent solution for a temporary problem"
jaijaikali
Mine is not wanting to pass all the loan debt my father co-signed for onto him. We all gotta have a reason to go on. College loans are mine.

but sometimes just by being alive you are ruining others lives. the only way to stop ruining others lives is to end yours.

The one repost I don't mind being a repost

“They tell us that Suicide is the greatest piece of Cowardice... That Suicide is wrong; when it is quite obvious that there is nothing 1/2

2/2 in this world to which every man has a more unassailable title than to his own life and person.” ― Arthur Schopenhauer

And that's the reason why it's the most selfish thing any one person can do.
UweKeim
Someone should have told that my dad back in 1978, when I was 5.

When overwhelmed you lose sight of the fact, the pain really is temporary.
puppyfart
My reason is my dogs and my bf. But let's be real, I hate life.
lamameatpopsicle
Except when the people who are suppose to care are the ones saying they wished you dead.
Alwaysbackdoor
Lots of people who fail to kill themselves are happy they failed later on. Many people take their lives when they don't need to 1/2
Alwaysbackdoor
Because they don't receive proper treatment. I don't support or oppose the quote, but get help, guys. It can get better. 2/2

So quit killing yourselves you selfish bastardos!

My parents are probably kicking me out of the house tomorrow and I have nowhere else to go, so I'm probably going to kill myself.

The quote is from Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace if anyone was interested.

Also, for those interested in knowing, he killed himself.
NuclearBoxcutter
What a jerk!
miidnightbleus
I always said "suicide is selfish, you're only going to hurt your loved ones." Now I understand some pain can be unbearable. Stay strong ppl
ItsSneakyAdolf
But if there is no one who cares? Guilt people into living by lying to them and telling them they are loved even if they aren't?
miidnightbleus
I guess my point didn't really come across. I used to say suicide was selfish. Now I don't, I understand pain can be unbearable.
miidnightbleus
I still wish the best and happiness for anyone going down that path.
jamorox75
My sister committed suicide, I can confirm this is true, about 13 years later.

Unfortunately sometimes they aren't short term problems
Ohmygodimkenny
Not all the problems are short term.
IwishThereWasTeaAboardTheFlyingDutchman
This is something I think about a lot, the hurt I would cause others with my actions.
AnJeremyClarkson
It's called "slay it forward" for a reason.
heteroscedastic
@stinkylinkydingdong, sincerely, go fuck yourself you worthless piece of shit.
helenfrankannekeller
Tf is wrong with you?
stinkylinkydingdong
Do.....do you wanna talk about it?
heteroscedastic
I don't believe it, you're still trying to get your moral rocks off. Get a rag and wipe yourself down scumbag.
stinkylinkydingdong
Hmmm. I still don't understand what you're implying. You are morally superior or I am? *whew* this is a lot of work for a repost
heteroscedastic
There we go. :-)
Lojay
True. My cousin killed herself. She had two young kids that went off the rails after.
SomethingWittyIDK
On some sort of insane locomotive?
HaulinOats
That is beautiful
Lojay
Too many kids on imgur these days
ProfessorDumbledoge
This is so mean :(
Lojay
Really
flamingflamingo
ALL ABOOOOOAAAAARRRRDDDD HA HA HA....
Lojay
Mother kills herself, kids can't handle it, but let's make some jokes. Too many kids on here these days
flamingflamingo
Joke's on you. I'm 30.
monchovazquez96
But if you have nobody to pass the pain, it just ends.
Greypuppy
I kinda feel bad for upvoting this
ShiftingPattern
12 year olds romanticizing suicide and upvoting crap like this... That's it. imgur is done. Pack it up folks! Jeeves! Prepare my Dirigible.
misterwit
No man is an island.
monchovazquez96
A homeless veteran with no family, f.e. An old man with no wife and no relatives alive. An orphan, introvert college student on a new town

And he becomes an obituary in the newspaper of thousands of other vets, a morbid reality to those who find his remains. We're less for that.
lizzlemcbizzle
Someone always leaves behind pain, you just don't know who will feel it
dancfontaine
DEBATABLE
TEDwisdom
Homeless veterans with no living relatives. Orphans with no friends. Hermits. Realistically, there do exist forgotten people in this world

Sawsomebullshit
Yeah, but you wreck the day who has to clean it up. Or the kid that finds your rotten bloated body.
grenademan125
We don't need your negativity. Go to a therapist.
dancfontaine
A therapist. Really?
JaxDagger
seems he doesnt need on though... cause he is a realistic fucker, not enough of them these days.
ILikedTheirOldStuffBetter
Just gonna counteract one of those downvotes here...
WorldsSmallestMegaDick
A guy killed himself with my toilet and all I gotta say is that pooping is way empowering now.
dancfontaine
what
ItsSneakyAdolf
Story pls
WorldsSmallestMegaDick
He used the toilet as a base to tie the rope around when he hung himself in my apartment.
ItsSneakyAdolf
lol
supadee
I mean...it does end the pain though.
sixsexsix
No, it just passes it to someone else. Can you read?
Greypuppy
You could just be a shitty person like me so no one would really pick up said pain ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
TEDwisdom
The original pain does end. What seems "passed on" is actually fresh pain chosen and conjured by whoever wants to pick it up.
supadee
Like when my turn is up and it's the next players turn?
sixsexsix
Like when you have a basketball and you don't want it anymore so you throw it to a teammate. The ball doesn't disappear just 1/2
sixsexsix
2/2 because you're not holding it anymore. It's someone else's problem now. Keep yo chin up friend.
supadee
But what if I'm fast enough to run to where I threw it and catch it?
sixsexsix
It still exists. It's still your problem then. Not sure what you're getting at.
Yabishboi
Seeking to guilt individuals who already want to kill themselves. Meh.
dancfontaine
Yeah pretty sure whoever wrote the original comment has a tumblr account
rhinoloupe
If guilt is what it takes to make them reconsider, yes.
GoodNewsCigaretteJuice
Does that discredit the truth in the statement?
misterwit
No, but if the best you can do for that person is tell them how shitty it would be for them to do it, you're not much of a helping hand.
HighrockTendales
Good reply
TEDwisdom
Makes it something you mightn't want to say to someone already hurting. Same way this is an inappropriate response: i.imgur.com/ZgftdLn.png
ThatOneGuyFromTheThing
Got heated, reread and realized you said inappropriate. Phwew, yeah suicide is not the answer (unless in really extreme cases)
delecti
I would argue that a case where ending your life is an appropriate option is really euthanasia more than suicide.
bobvonbob
Of all the reasons to not commit suicide, this should be the least of them.
UpVotesPlease
That anyone you knew or cared for you will be hurt? Seems reasonable.
bobvonbob
More that trying to convince someone who thinks no one loves them that the people who love them will miss them will be entirely ineffective.
UpVotesPlease
That's the reason everyone commits suicide?
bobvonbob
That's not a question I can answer fully, but the answer is definitely no.
