Escape
Suicide to Escape it all…
Knowing more can be dangerous. Sometimes knowing little is better. Sometimes seeing the truth can be dangerous. When you know more you cannot handle, it leads to problems. It leads to stress and then it burdens them with their own sorrows.
People handle and face their different problems differently! While some handle it in a more positive way, some handle it in a negative way. When people are in stress and have deep sorrow, they deal with it in different ways. Some take vacations to stress it out, or drink to forget, or do other different things to overcome it.
Other people take their problems and escape. Instead of escaping to another country or doing other positive things they commit suicide to escape it all. Suicide is a very dangerous thing. Some people say that if you tried it once, you will easily become a victim of suicide. We are vulnerable. When we think about our problems, we always tend to search for ways to fix it. Our minds can be dangerous. If we think too much about our problems, our brains gives us burden that we cannot handle. And sometimes, to some people it seems like there is no other way out but to commit a suicide.
Problems that sometimes leads up to suicide are so many. People commit suicide because of drugs, debt, family problems, or social problems and so much more. Some have problems build up inside their heads for a long time that then sometimes leads to suicide. Others just come across with a small problem and suddenly decides to commit suicide. Having small or big problems, believe it or not people do commit suicide for it. Sometimes people commit suicide even for the stupidest things. Whatever their problems are they do to escape. Some sad stories and some are just a mystery!
There are many ways people commit suicidve. Different types of ways of committing a suicide. People commit suicide by hanging, cutting themselves, overdosing w/ drugs, jumpin’ off a cliff, shooting themselves and etc. just to name a few.
In my own point of view, suicide is a way to escape for those who have done it! I wouldn’t call them cowards for seeing suicide as their only way to face their problems. There are so many problems in this world that we all can face that I know I haven’t faced. So, I wouldn’t know how to categorize them if I was ask for. I can never understand it or know unless I wore their shoes. Sometimes, some people try to commit suicide just to scare whoever they are mad at and accidently commit. I believe that at the final hour of their death when they were in so much pain, they wanted to be safed but no one was there to safe them. Or maybe some really intend on committing. Suicide is a very common thing from where I come from. Hearing all the stories that follows each suicide that happened, I mourn and at the same time feel sorry for their families. Some stories are very painful and others are just hard for me to understand. But as all this happens, there’s always one thing that comes to my mind. I always wondered how they did it and that they must be so strong minded to do such a painful thing! But ofcourse, my point of view can be different from all the rest. So what is your point of view, is suicide an escape?

Very good article on a very delicate subject.
A man that I had know since I was a baby threw himself off a top story car park last year. He just could not go on, nobody, not even his family knew how ill he was, how he had got himself in dept, had a failed marriage and was not allowed to see his children.
He had been found as a tiny few days old baby in a carrier bag outside a supermarket, his Mother was thought to be a prostitute and my Mothers friend adopted him. What scares had he been carrying around all his life, thoughts of worthlessness and abandonment, I think the only release from himself was to take his own life.

A great and non condemning article on a delicate matter. The truth is we can not say why people take their lives.
Personally I can feel for the man lillyrose describes here.
My life has been one suicide attempt after the other. Bad luck chased me. Always been an outsider and being superaware by my sixth sense. Others did not understand me and I might have longed a bit too bad for the other side.
Yes, I have scars on my wrists from attends and I can say I really wanted to die. My life has been a struggle of never getting any recognition. Surely not from loved ones.
I was beaten and hated by many people that crossed my path, started drinking when I figured out that my suicide attents did not work.
Now I do like to live. My writings are my escape. I am facing a divorce from a destructive marriage that made me very depressed and am pennyless on the street.
But I found my reason to live somehow in my need to express myself. Writing down poems and stories makes me feel better and I do like to find people to read them.
It was actually getting in touch with a musician in a fan/artist relationship that gave me something to look up to and made me get my reason to go.
I do admire and respect that person for what he had accomplished and it inspired me to believe back in myself.
Yes, I can be unemployed, cast out of society, mocked at and as a former housewife with no great education, no job experience and no penny out on the street, lodging back with my mother, but I do believe I have a talent;
I found my love for life in this pile of misery and I cherish it, because I do like to inspire others to go on, like that artist I met did to me.
