Things can ALWAYS get better and to go as far as to give a statistic that you made up (80% are better off killing themselves) is just miseducated and not thought out.

Suicide is a selfish act....period. I have all the sympathy in the world for fighters. I lack sympathy for quitters
Like i mentioned in both posts i can completely understand things from the perspective of the people left behind. their anger, guilt, frustration etc.
Yes it is selfish and yes you have all the right to be angry at a person who did that.

But my posts are initially about the person killing himself and in his or her world
there is no selfishness, guilt, frustration, 'things can get better or worse' etc so theres no need to feel sorry for them or speculate about their future.

Anger and blame from your -own- perspective.. yes.
