Which one is it?

My friend comitted suicide about a month ago.I am numb inside.My depression is unfathomable except to one friend of mind, who is going through the same thing.So my question is: my friend that killed herself...does that make her weak? or strong?

She did what we are all afraid to do, so I think it makes her strong.We all want to die, but we are too afraid of losing things.

Well, I want to.

it's neither weak nor strong. those are both words that carry a lot of judgement and someone who was that much pain does not deserve to be judged.

depression clouds your mind and erases your good judgement. you cannot think clearly when you're suicidal. your friend committed suicide because they didn't know what else to do to stop the pain. those posting comments saying it's selfish or weak have never experienced the depth of this kind of pain before. i know this because they wouldn't be making judgements if they had.

if you're feeling this way - talk to someone. you are depressed and you're not in your right mind at the moment. now is not the time to make any rash decisions. take the time to heal - it will hurt before it gets better, but take the time.

Suicide; Means your weak.
You didn't have enough courage and
strength to deal with you own life.. so how
would it make you strong to kill youself?

It's easy to leave yourself behind but then you have others you will be leaving behind too. I don't know if it's a strong or weak thing to do. I don't know it it's bad or good because I've tried killing myself. But I do know that it's selfish and unfair to the ones you leave behind that loved you. I'm sorry you had to lose your friend that way. But I know if I succeeded in killing myself, I wouldn't want my friends to do the same thing. Try to be strong, maybe try talking to someone. You'd be surprised at what people have to say.

Weak. If she could have taken the pain, she would still be here. She chose an end to it. We do not all want to die, some of us have the courage to fight for a decent life. To go through all the pain and drama and heartache in order to end up in a happier place right here- alive, on earth.

The one thing about life is that there is always another way. No matter how fucked up things seem, no matter how impossible happiness/ fulfilling your dreams appear to be, there is always a way to reach your goals. It might not be the easiest way, it might not be the way you originally planned, but there is always another way to get there.

That's the thing about life, if you choose to see it, there is always hope.

Strong? No. Selfish? Yes.

To ignore other people, to blatantly believe that no one cares, not even your friends, to ignore that you have ever touched someones live, because you have, without knowing it you have; that, my friend, is selfish.

Ending your life is easy, if you have trouble with it, then your morals are strong. Mine are not, ending my life would be easy. Why don't I? Because other people are worth more than my life. People who ignore that completely are throwing away their problems instead of dealing with them. Dealing with them is strong, running away is weak.

Suicide is running.
