I dare you to suicide, oh so mighty and courageous one. Suicide is one of the most difficult decisions any being can take, and more than often require more courage than to continue living.

I simply said my opinion, and yes I don't know the whole yards about suicide. I was never a suicidal person, I've had problems in my life and who hasn't? Some where bad, some weren't I didn't even think for a second about ending my life because things were getting rough. Thats life, its tough and rough people need to learn to live with that. If you expect things in life to be handed to you on a silver platter, you better wake up. And no, I'm not on my high horse. Maybe you should get off your high horse, before scrutinizing what I said because it was my opinion and I will respect yours, and I expect you to respect mine
Whats the point in killing yourself? Whats that going to solve? Unless your being physically tortured in a worst imaginable way than I can understand it. And yes, suicide is for cowards. They're only thinking about themselves when they make that decision, nothing courageous about it.
Think about all the people who actually cared about YOU and how it would EFFECT them after you killed yourself. How is that in anyway COURAGEOUS?
It is estimated that each suicide in the United States leaves an average of six people intimately affected by the death, either as a spouse, parent, significant other, sibling, or child of the deceased person. These people are referred to as survivors.[33] Of course, this estimate does not represent the total number of people who may be affected by an individual suicide. For example, the suicide of a child may leave not only his/her immediate family to make sense of the act, but also his/her extended family, school and entire community.
As with any death, family and friends of a suicide victim feel grief associated with loss. However, suicide deaths leave behind a unique set of issues for the survivors. Suicide survivors are often overwhelmed with psychological trauma that vary depending on the factors comprising the event, including discovery of the body. The survivor's trauma can leave him/her feeling guilty, angry, remorseful, helpless, and confused. It can be especially difficult for survivors because many of their questions as to the victim's final decision are left unanswered, even if a suicide note is left behind (the "why" questions). Moreover, survivors often feel that they should have intervened in some way to prevent the suicide, even if the suicide comes as a surprise and there are no obvious warning signs. Along with this sense of regret and failure, there is sometimes relief if the survivor's relationship with the victim was difficult, strained, or otherwise complicated. Given this complex and conflicting set of emotions associated with a loved one's suicide, survivors usually find it difficult to discuss the death with others, even with those who have also faced the death of a loved one, but by some other means. These feelings cause survivors to feel isolated from their network of family and friends and often making them reluctant to form new relationships as well.[34]
Fortunately, "survivor support groups" can offer counseling and help bring many of the issues associated with suicide out into the open. They can also help survivors reach out to their own friends and family who may be feeling similarly and thus begin the healing process. In addition, counseling services and therapy can provide invaluable support to the bereaved. Some such groups can be found online, providing a forum for discussion amongst survivors of suicide.
