Fuck upworthy and fuck the bullshit copy pasta that I’ve been seeing lately on Lemmy.
If I was gonna ~jump off a bridge to~ kill myself, I’d be pissed af if you tried to stop me. Then even more pissed if someone wrote a feel-good piece about how great that was. People loooove to tell other people what to do with their lives.
Edit: this method of suicide is inappropriate, as it impacts others.
yeah, fuck that, you don’t get to fuck up everyone’s commute on a public roadway because sheila left your drunk ass again, just because you feel like it fella
With this specific method, yes, fuck them. Humane options should be available for people who aren’t interested in life.
We can not know what was in the souls of the people that kill themselves but we do know about the people that survive/fail their attempt and the vast majority of them regret doing it about a second after it is done. We also know that most people that are provided help with the thing that makes them want to kill themselves are grateful to the people that stopped them.
That is the sympathetic angle but you don’t seem very sympathetic so the other angle is, Fuck people that kill themselves by traumatizing other people. Jumping into traffic will at best cause trauma to witnesses and at worst cause injuries or death when cars swerve to avoid your body. If you want to kill yourself like that you deserve to keep living.
Oh for sure. If you’re going to kill yourself, pick an appropriate method.
That said, humane methods should be supplied to people who want to kill themselves.
