The only good way to suicide imo is to do as slowly as possible as if it is barely noticeable. Aka survive. Suicide people are some of the biggest losers ever. They lost the one thing that have more price than all the product in the universe, the breath of life. And I for one, only can bring myself to scorn at them. Its actually really degrading.

This shows a pretty severe lack of empathy, and I wonder how it affects your viewpoints on other topics as well...
Imagine if one day you get in an accident and lose your sight, your hearing,your tongue and you can't do anything you enjoyed anymore because you are in constant pain would you still look down on people who commit suicide? Well, this is often what suicidal / depressed people feel like, they can't enjoy anything anymore so life doesn't feel like it's worth living. Whether it's because of some traumatic event or chemical imbalance.
A predictable reaction to this is "well no, no matter what I'll always want to live I'd push through like a boss and those other people are just weak". Which is again showing a lack of empathy, part of depression is that you have lost the will to push through hard times. It also shows a lack of capability to imagine what it would be like living in a situation other than your own.
So what hope do depressed people have? well people who aren't depressed and love them can reach out a helping hand and give them the support they need to get help whatever that may be. When people are like you and just consider them weak or scum they often already think that way about themselves and it just puts them further into despair.
I don't look down on you though, because I know your lack of empathy is most likely a result of you not being able to imagine what it's like to be suicidal or the events in your life have raised you to have that mindset towards suicidal or depressed people. Empathy goes both ways. as lady gaga says.... "bullys are ""born that way"" too"
