I'm just curious, I've considered the issue in the past. I'm not that sad at the moment but one of my friends is a bit depressed. Honestly. Stop looking at me like that 
I'm just a bit curious how many people have felt like life may not have been worth living.
So think about it, and then click on the spoiler and vote please.

Feel free to discuss the topic: whether suicide is a right, something natural to think about, the poll, your own experiences, etc...

I once a vague thought about it, but dismissed it nearly immediately.
Whether suicide is right? Its totally the person's decision.
I heard this once in a movie:
"If you can discover new things everyday, isn't that enough to live for?"
I'm sure nearly every1 had that thought in their mind, but im guessing 99% of ppl dismissed it straight away, like me.

Nah. I've felt pretty shitty, but can't say I've ever genuinely felt that way.
I've never once thought of the concept of suicide and felt "Hey this might be an option I would like to explore."
|
Life definitely isn't worth living. Unfortunately, our survival instincts are rather powerful. There's no logical reason to continue on. Life is driven by passion alone.
|
I've never "considered" suicide, but I have strategized how I would do it if I were in some sort of situation where I was terminally ill or my home was surrounded by murderous gangsters or something.

I was gonna jump from the 7th floor, and I realized there was some kind of big bush right below the windows and that I might just end up quadriplegic. So I just went back inside and never tried to kill myself again.

I've considered suicide a few times in my life and how close was I... I don't want to talk about those dark days.

I'm not a sad person, never really have been, but I think about suicide/mortality quite a bit. Not sure if I've ever actually considered it, but I think about it a lot.
For instance, you know those water or sand filled drums that they put on either side of the concrete legs that hold up highway overpasses? Well they are designed to slow down your car and hopefully save your life if you happen to leave the road. Well one of the overpasses on my trip to/from school/home doesn't have any. It is just bare concrete on both sides, no guard rail or anything. I have never once driven past it without thinking how easy it would be to just vere off the road at 90 and die for sure. No desire to, but the thought is unbelievably interesting to me.

Have I ever? yes.
When I realize what perspective is? no

^^
Would you mind elaborating?

Well played Barney.
And yes, I have never seriously considered doing it, or attempted it, but I have thought of what would happen if I did it, and just generally thought about the idea.
|
Never thought of it. Not to spark a religious debate which always ends badly, but God really helps me drive my life.
|
lol voted no but felt bad about calling you a sick fuck
|
All the time :O Tired of living and too scared to die, as Horace McCoy put it.
|
I've considered it out of curiosity, not out of depression.
|
Definitely have considered it a lot and gave it a lot of thought ;/
|
Poll options are a little biased. The "no" option is extreme while the "yes" option is extremely mild. No, I've never thought about, but I don't look down on people who have, or feel differently about them.
