You merely have to change your point of view slightly, and then that glass will sparkle when it reflects the light.
It really depends on how severe the problem is.If you are just feeling sad because of a few things that have happened recently then you're selfish, if you have lived your entire life with little to nothing going right for you then it's not selfish IMO. Unless you have an idea of how BAD things can get then you really can't judge people and their actions. I know personally how bad it can get, i've had it BAD all my life (everyone litterally shuts up on the spot and starts feeling bad and stops making jokes) AND i have had help a few times. I know first hand how it can be and that's how i don't get how silly people can get when they say "it's selfish", i infact think the opposite. It's selfish to force a person to keep going through it just because you may or may not hurt a few peoples feelings, they will be sad right now but time heals. Humans remember everything, so this is no different then anything else we remember. It's your life, it's your curse, it's your choice. |

Yeah I don't see anything wrong with suicide, there's not really any point in living anyway. People that judge it are just clinging to ideas like life and happiness and shit because they want to be "good" because that concept has been programmed into their minds. |

Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.
I agree with ClouD, but I don't think suicide is a cowardice act, it takes guts to do it, not many can deny that. But it also takes guts to live on and fix your problems, either way it is your choice, I don't blame anyone for walking out early, no matter who gets effected your life is your life, and you should respect what someone else wanted to do, really what we deal with when someone dies is not their loss, but are own loss, we need to understand that everyone is here only temporarily. |

I wanna be the very best
Like no one ever was
To lucid dream is my real test
To control them is my cause
Suicide isn't something that can be lumped into on set definition... |

I don't think you can call it selfish. Selfish implies some sort of gain. What does a person gain by killing themselves? They may lose things, but they don't gain. |

It is selfish to do it in the presence of others in a violent fashion. |
|
It is selfish, in away that you are taking your life, when other people who are dying or dead don't have oppertinities like you, but then it is your choice LIFE or DEATH.. |
|
So anyone not considering killing themselves is brainwashed into living? |

Still can't WILD........
What if I said suicide was a form of natural selection that naturally eliminates INFERIOR humans from passing on their genes? Does that seem valid? |

There's not much but suicide, is there? |

You may think you've experienced suffering, but you obviously still attach yourself to things such as passing on your genes and having a better life eventually. Wait until you see a world with absolutely nothing left to offer you but silly illusions. There is no better life, the world is designed to suck because people, so afraid of being vulnerable, suck love everywhere they can find it, and give none back. |

Yes; You are only thinking of your own thoughts and feelings. |

The end of whatever it is they have perceived to be too much to deal with. |
|
I suppose they could perceive their own actions as selfish, but then that gets back to the whole issue of moral relativism. In any case, I asked what a person stands to gain, not what they lose. Gain ==> enrichment or expansion. Loss ==>less complexity, getting smaller. Losing suffering is not the same as gaining happiness. |
