Suicide is a permanent solution to your temporary problems.

Today I found out that a student at the high school I teach at committed suicide. She was a senior, a good student, and a very intelligent young lady.
It saddens me that many young people should feel that ending their life is the best way to solve any problem.
PLEASE, IF YOU KNOW OF ANYONE WHO IS DEPRESSED OR FEELS OVERWHELMED WITH LIFE, TELL SOMEONE. GET THEM HELP.

To be brutally frank, it's not a solution, it's a running away.

@OliRos True.

The thing is though, we can't ever walk in their shoes.

I mean, to be in so much pain that you just want to end it all ...

That's something.

@Umile I agree, we can never be inside someone else's suffering. My point is not unsympathetic to the suicide. It's about how the origins post is phrased.
