    if anyone reading this is thinking of killing themself please do not do it. someone very close to me killed themself 2 weeks ago, and it has been the most painful thing ive ever had to deal with, and it has hurt so many people. i dont know why he did it, but i wish he could see the amount of people that loved him, and are beyond hurt by it. i loved him very much, like my own brother, and its too painful to think he didnt think his life was worth anything.

    @crimsonregret000 What Dr. Joiner is saying is that a person who commits self-harm is more LIKELY to commit suicide than a person who does not commit self-harm. It doesn't mean that they will absolutely commit suicide. I went to a suicide prevention conference 2 weeks ago where he spoke and I really liked his presentation. He talked about a lot of important information that sometimes we forget about when it comes to suicide.

    People commit suicide because they want to die because of life itself. They want to end a so called LIFE because when you're suffering from everything around you and not happy that's NOT a life! You're actually living in a death. If you're totally poor and have no money and your parent dies, you have no spouse or significant other who truly loves you, you're trying to find a job to no avail, the list of negativities go on and on you mean to tell me THAT'S LIVING and I should continue to live?

    @burkdogg21 well, at least take solace that whatever demons were hurting your friend, they're gone now.
