Someone commited suicide this morning Options

[6gcSTVT]

I wake up and go to lunch today as usual... rumors start spreading about a suicide on campus last night. I head back to my dorm and meet my friend who lives on the next floor above me and ask him if he's heard of anything. Turns out his room mate was the one who left at some point in the night and went into the basement of another dorm and killed himself. How he killed himself is unknown since that information will probably be witheld due to the situation. I personally am fine because I didn't know him at all really but with a campus of 500 students it hits pretty close to home. I personally feel that suicide is a permenant solution to a temporary problem, so I don't have respect for people that do commit suicide, but at the same time i know people that aren't all there mentally and with a bunch of social factors that are out there now adays i guess its possible for some people to take their own lives. Thats my rant and it's not often that i do it but it's pretty crazy.....

I agree with you're opinion that you shouldn't get upset if you didn't know the guy.
I don't however, agree with you're view that suicide is wrong. just like the lifesupport question - when the quality of life is gone sometimes it's just the best way to end the misery. Until you have really hit bottom in your life [and we all will at some point] you can't understand how he must have felt.
The world can be beautiful and it can be brutal. Sometimes it's just not worth the trouble. It was his life and he made his choice. I hope wherever he is he got the peace he was looking for.
