Why do people consider Suicide wrong? Or otherwise treat it like a sickness and bad thing. I don’t think it always is.

This isn’t a disease although most things that end in death are considered a disease or injury.
This is me standing up for what I truly want and believe , who I am.
I don’t want to play this game. Games are elective and I do not consent.
I wish I was never born, or Someone or thing should have stopped me before I reproduced. I so want to check out but can’t without my kids blessing. I truly wish they would all just say “it’s ok. You can go we’ll be fine.”

I want permission to be suicidal or better yet permission to be dead. Thanks

Maybe I’ll say I’m going on a trip…

There are circumstances under which I can understand it; suffering a painful, debilitating and ultimately terminal illness, for example. But I have known even people facing that who opted to hang on to the end. Still, I support physician-assisted suicide so that one has a choice.

On the other hand, I also had friends (and relatives) who took their lives facing problems for which counseling and time might’ve made a difference. I personally attempted suicide after I lost my husband and our son to a car accident. My mother found and saved me. I was grateful in time, but I will always regret that that was among the memories of me she eventually took to the grave. 😞

People who suicide can’t know the devastation they leave behind, or even the good things they miss. One dear friend who took her life in 2006 will never know that another of our group missed her so much he followed her a year later.
The rest of us rallied to help her children recover. And today, she has a granddaughter who looks just like her.
