saying that, as i mentioned ive also had attempts. sometimes you cant stand up for the greater good and you have to do what you think is best for yourself.
but having lost my mother to her own hand i will NEVER think that suicide doesnt cause severe trauma to the survivors.
'm so sorry you had to go through the suicide of your Mother. I truly am sorry. Ya suicide can be a selfish act I guess but not in the logical way. I don't think anyone can be in their right mind to commit suicide.
This thread is just food for thought. I see so many posts with people being so desperate, me included that they don't get past the point of thinking ahead or knowing what an impact it would make on their loved ones lives.

I was just throwing this out there.
