Suicide is not some self centered act. Rational mined people don't choose to end their lives. It's the illness that they suffer from that twists their ability to asses risk, to make good choices, and to maintain a sense of future possibilities. When people act out of this illness they are not acting out of free choice. They are falling victim to the illness. The illness is not about logic or self interest but morerso about an immidiate desire to be dead.

You may not respect that person, I however have a great deal of sympathy for this person. I'm a suicide survivour myself and i hope she gets the help she needs.
