Thread Name: BS: Teenage Suicide Part 2
Subject: RE: BS: Teenage Suicide Part 2
I think there are two main types of suicide that come to mind.

1) Impulsive

2) Considered

I`m not suggesting either is right or more rational than the other.

I knew a young fellow who stood in front of a train. He was very drunk at the time. The scene afterwards indicated he hadn`t changed his mind at the last second.

Knew another who after a great loss in his life--one with which he could no longer live--put a gun in his mouth and pulled the trigger.

To some people, life isn`t what many consider it to be--happy, fulfilling, etc. It`s a chore to get through day after day. Living like that doesn`t leave some people too many options. It hurts those around, but ya have to live to hurt. Death is not always the worst thing a guy could go through.

Best wishes to all of you.
