Suicide is a horrific assault upon the folks who love you the most. Sometimes it even destroys those people.

Every young person who avoids pulling the trigger, will almost certainly live to find happiness and wonder how they ever could have considered such a thing.

Suicide is a selfish slap in the face to anyone who has ever loved or helped you, and to anyone who you might someday have loved and helped.

I saw a sign in an AA meeting hall once.

'If anyone had done to me what I've done to myself, I'd kill them.'

I think that pretty much explains it.

For some, especially teenagers and young adults, it's the ultimate act of aggression. So said a psychologist I once lived with for a time.

Mass shootings ending in death of the shooter seem to fit this mould.

She believed that such people were actually suffering from some defect in their biochemistry that medication could control.
