[quote=Protagonist]As a Christian, I believe that people created for a purpose. By killing yourself, you're usually preventing yourself from fulfilling said purpose, and that's just no good.[/quote]

I honestly should of addressed this with my last post but I had forgotten to.
I'm basically also in agreement with what Brovo said in the situation.

But I'd like to add, having used to be a Christian myself. One who as a little kid thought about suicide, but dashed it aside for no reason other than the fear of hell that using Religion as a reason to scare people to not kill themselves, and judge those who do kill themselves simply causes a ton of emotional damage to those who have such thoughts. People who are in this state need to know they are loved, supported and cared for, not that God will hate them for it.

[quote=Dark Wind]I'd ask people to not confuse my points with sweeping generalizations. I am angered by suicide bombings, murder, etc. but I am also saddened by them from both sides of the perspective. If I only looked at things from a point of view of contempt I would be missing all other perspectives. And when we miss other perspectives, that is how the cycle of attack, retaliation, and attack is endlessly continued.[/quote]

I get angered by such act's as well.
I was simply noting it's not as simple an issue as "Man kills others, that man is obviously evil" sort of situation.

[quote=Dark Wind]Self-diagnosing is a hazy issue, a person could have depression or not. I don't know the full details of your experience, but even if a person self-diagnoses and that diagnosis is not official, you seem to look at it as though it has less validity. The person very well could have had depression. Remember, the things a depressed person says may not make sense to you and they can even hurt. Super complex thing here, treat it with extreme sensitivity! Again, this isn't something I know much about (your experience, that is).[/quote]

I don't even know the full details considering I wasn't the one who had self-diagnosed :P
Plus it was something that happened 2 years ago, something I spent a lot of time trying to not think/forget about so my memory is a bit hazy on it at this point anyways.

I'd agree that there is a chance that the person actually did have Depression. But there is a chance that they didn't. I will also note, being on the receiving end where a lot of emotional pain was suffered, my viewpoint on that situation is probably going to be bias.

All the person did was say "I have Depression, I am doing __________ because of my Depression" etc before events happened that prompted me cut off contact with the individual. However, even if in this case the person did not have Depression, there are cases of people who have simply claimed the have Depression in order to avoid blame, or gain sympathy from people. May the specific case I had been one of them or not though is irrelevant to the point that people who do not have Depression and go around claiming they do make it worse for those who actually do suffer from Depression.
