“Goodbye, everybody!” – Anxious to see the journey ahead?

“Don’t worry, it’s not loaded”

“They tried to get me – I got them first!” – Going to die anyway?

“I am eager to see what lies beyond the curtain of death,” “Bye-bye selfish world.”

These were a few of the last emails written by a few who were about to give up there life.. for some reason ..

Though we don’t know what prompts this behaviour, most people commit suicide due to “usual” reasons. That would range from matrimonial discord to failure in exams on one hand to unrequited love or monetary distress on the other. Monetary distress could be due to many reasons: losses in business or stock market, unemployment, debts, etc. Harassment for dowry, old-age problems and suffering from chronic diseases also account for many suicides.

Deranged people commit suicide.

A Sane person will ponder over the matter and try to solve the problem. But what is sanity..

Insane person will get carried away by emotions or compulsions at hand. I think a very strong will is required to commit suicide. Who wishes to end such a beautiful life without reason. The cases of frustration in love, extreme poverty, chronic disease, threat to life otherwise, may be some of the causes that drive a person to this sordid act.

I have spoken to many friends and found that no one has pucca solutions for defeated hearts, persons with weak will-power. Counselling also helps to some extent. Any way I will say that to commit suicide is a foolish act.

One thing I will say everyone in this world today or tomorrow everyone has a stressful situation but the main difference between the two people (one who commits suicide and one who does not) is that one who commits suicide is alone. He is not even able to share his pain with a single human being in this earth.

Human being is a social animal whenever he gets a feeling he is alone because he is not able to express himself to anyone he commits suicide. Till we have a feeling of responsibilities, bothering for others one does not commit suicide. The moment human being knows there is no one to bother after me, or there is no responsibilities human being attempts suicide.
