That kind of gun-assisted suicide at least, for sure. There’s still deaths of despair that are far from selfish acts, and moreso acts of desperation.

Helluva lot easier to say when you’re not actively in the depths of it

To be fair you’re making an assumption here that may or may not be true

this. why does anyone else have a say in if I live or die outside of me. FYI i am not looking to die but when I decide to I want to be “allowed” to. and I don’t give a fuck if someone else thinks the reason is not adequate.
As a military veteran, I give a shit. Having access to a gun seems a lot easier to those in despair than seeking help. It’s why it’s important we make access to firearms extremely difficult in the future.

90% of people cannot afford and environment change, not that such cures depression. Some people are less treatable, and many depression medications actually heighten suicidal feelings.

That’s what you offer. You don’t just magically cure mental illness. Nor do you just magically have money to change your situation.
So do something about it.
depression cured by drugs is not a cure and ironically often lead to more suicide since it lightens the depression enough to get the person to take action.

It’s rare to find a lack of empathy, intelligence together with ignorance in one single comment. Well done.

Of course they refused to get help. THEY WERE SUICIDAL. Do you even understand the concept of that? If you want to die, you don’t want help. I know because I’ve been there.

Your solution to suicidal people is that they should get help. I’m explaining to you why they don’t. You’re telling them to do something they can’t do. They are not mentally able to ask for help.
And some of us, like me, are just in excruciating pain every single day.

Well done again. Your ability to come across as even more callous and ignorant than you already had is truly impressive.

And now you’ve added twisting peoples words to make yourself look better.
Have you considered a career as a landlord? Or a conservative politician? You’re a natural fit.
