Discussion I Wish Suicide Prevention Never Existed

[DeIetedUser4739]

There should have been a mass euthanasia movement by now, especially after two world wars with a few minor ones in between and some still ongoing.

We can write about stuff online all we want but it won't change anything, you'd think with all of the people that have thrown themselves in front of trains or jumped off buildings and the people that witness it and especially the ones that have to clean up the mess would have been protesting all the time but they probably all support some bullshit like suicide prevention.

I guess you have to go through it to truly understand that for some there's no cure except death, it'd be such an easy thing to grant someone nowadays especially with some drugs that have been developed.

I also wish it never existed, to me suicide prevention is just prolonging suffering, it's extreme cruelty with the aim of trapping people in their futile and dreadful existences for decades on end until they are tormented by old age and die anyway.

It's so incredibly hellish to me how suicide just isn't accepted instead, I really wish there's the option to just die painlessly with no risks and complications involved that's very accessible, only non-existence is desirable for me. All that I wish for is to be permanently unaware for all eternity, I never would have wanted or chosen existence in the first place.

It's just unacceptable extreme cruelty how suicide is seen as something to so harmfully stop rather than accept especially as nobody consented to this existence, it's all meaningless and we are all just going to die anyway. I see no point to suffering in this existence that could potentially get so torturous way beyond how anyone could imagine it to when the peace of eternal nothingness solves everything.

Yes, I also believe that euthanasia should be allowed for people who suffer from incurable diseases, both physical and mental.

At the very least the state shouldn't hinder suicidal people from buying firearms and certain substances.

Suicide prevention is okay, it might prevent those who take split second decisions.

But I think euthanasia should be accessible to people above 18 across the world.

I used to feel suicidal from a young age, I honestly don't know what would be appropriate than educating parents. Anyone can have kids, but not everyone can handle one in the hyper independent world

I'd love for the parent/relative of someone who took their own life to go against the grain and say "I'm actually happy for them because they didn't like being here, and now they aren't suffering any more."
What a massive breath of fresh air and step in the right direction that would be.

It amazes me that somehow, after all this time, they're still drawing the wrong conclusion from the reality of human suffering.

Humans are mentally programmed since birth to preserve life forms as much as possible, it takes courage to break free from the norm and rethink about very sensitive subjects such as suicide and make your opinion, and even then, you'd be an outcast if you were to say you support the right to die, and besides, only those who are depressed and suicidal will understand that the right to die is a fundamental human right, you don't see someone enjoying his life to the fullest advocating for the right to die, they were never in a position to understand that the right to die is a human right, suicidal people are tired and exhausted to just protest for right to die and make themselves exposed to pro-life and suicide prevention and people with a saviour complex, so it's very unlikely there will be protests for the right to die

Suicide prevention is okay, it might prevent those who take split second decisions.

No it isn't, any living being that is intelligent enough to be able to suffer and feel emotions should be allowed the right to die, you can't gatekeep suicide only to those you deem eligible for it.

Yes but the state does hinder everyone from buying nembutal, paying someone to help you Suicide, suicide booths , cyanide pills, suicide kits . They wrote laws to make all those crimes.

If those oppressive laws were removed then all those things would be legal. I could then buy 3 bottles of nembutal and hire someone to shoot me in the head with a shotgun after I pass out from drinking the nembutal. But I can't because they would put me and anyone helping me in prison

I agree. I meant that the state shouldn't hinder people by outlawing every possible solution.
