    You sound bitter. Could it be possible that you’re projecting your own past and your own issues with suicide onto other people whom you’ve never met in your life? Because, you know, you don’t know anything about them? Because before today you didn’t even know they existed?

    But yeah, im sure the article was enough to go on, in your mind, to call them “a pathetic waste of life.”

    It seems like you could benefit from seeing a therapist.

        I think it’s more selfish and cowardly to make someone else’s suicide about yourself. You’re making someone’s suffering about YOU. You you you you you. I have less than zero compassion for the ‘suicide is selfish’ brigade. Try a fucking ounce of consideration for others.

        A good friend of mine committed suicide a few years back. While I really miss her I would never dream of pointing the finger or calling her selfish. She had been through things I was very lucky to be protected from. Making her death about me would have been heinously narcissistic.
