Starya said:I disagree. Well, not on the part that there are people who honestly don't want help or benefit from it. The thing is, many mentally ill will refuse help at some stage. The might get over that stage. They might eventually be helped, and find life worth living. If suicide was an "acceptable" option many might not get to that stage. Then the question is; which is better, for people who could have been helped to die, or for people who cannot be helped to live?
Neither would I. If a person is dead he is dead, and I would not let the way he died be the thing I remembered about that person.Ms Ann Thrope said:I only know that I have always considered suicide to be a perfectly valid option, and would never hold it against someone's memory if that had been their choice.
