Why Do People Commit Suicide?

Answer Question

3 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Sometimes a claimed suicide is not really a suicide, like in the case of the British guy who was said to have committed suicide in woods near his Oxfordshire home, after he threatened to release information that proved the War On Terror was a fraud... www.thirdworldtraveler.com

      Committing suicide is an act of cowardice according to me. People who don't have guts to overcome hiccups in life commit suicide.

        People often commit suicide if things are not going their way for a long time. When they are unhappy about something and just give up the life they are leading because they cannot go through all the trauma anymore. These people often suffer from deep depression and are very confused in life. There might a million reasons why a person gives up his life. It could be loss of a lover, poverty, unemployment, failure, drug overdose and many other reasons. People also commit suicide when they are suffering from a disease and they do not enough money to recover from it and instead of dying of pain that will be following after a certain while after the disease, they often kill themselves.

        Suicide is an immoral and an unethical act. People who think about committing suicide are losers and shall remain one until they clear their conscience. Millions of people go through troubles in their life; this does not mean everyone should kill themselves. God has given us this life. It is our duty to preserve it as you might be the lucky one. Only God has the right to take away your life. If you go against God's wishes and take your life, you shall burn in hell for the rest of eternity.

        Well darling I agree to the with you on the first paragraph, very elaborate but I completely disagree on the second part. It seems your the loser who should use your brain go read a book or something! Suicide is inevitable. As a human being you have the right to make your own decision, i do believe in God, my mom is like super religious, but i dnt believe in "God has the right to take your own life" or you'll go straight to hell for the eternity. Come on, why do people like making themselves look stupid! I bet your a Christian yea or summin but if you are, there is no specific verse in the Bible which states that suicide victims go to Hell. God! Such stupid people these days, go use your brains or something, don't always believe what you heard, see it for yourself and look 4 evidence or something. I'm sorry yea but.... God. you ppl make me laugh. That is the very first time I have been rude like that. But anyway cnt change you in it, its your belief and I respect that you believe that but I was trying to show you my point. So yea...."If you go against God's wishes and take your life, you shall burn in hell for the rest of eternity." god that cracked me up XD you sound old!

        There are six suicides in the old testament and at least one in the new testament. People tend to take 'thou shalt not kill' to apply to suicide as well, but there is little evidence that that is how the verse should be taken. I respect your right to hold your view, but you should do some research to at least validate your point. Many early christians assailed travellers to kill them so that they might go to heaven more quickly. I hope you spend further time investigating the historical validity of your viewpoint.

        So all those people who jumped from the towers on 9/11 are going to hell by your logic? And I thought the Bible said something about "Judge not lest ye be judged." But I could be wrong.
