Suicide should be more accepted in our culture. I don't really understand how we can let ourselves believe that suicide automatically means someone is depressed and messed up. There's nothing wrong with killing yourself for those reasons, but those aren't the only reasons.
The truth is, suicide can be an invaluable tool in life. If you're truly ready and willing to kill yourself, then 90% of the world's burdens are obsolete to you. Your boss wants you to do some shit you don't want to do? Fuck it, test him, if you lose your job, so what? No money to eat, so what? People trying to pressure you into things with mindgames, screw them, what can they do? You can still live as normal a life as you want but you're immuned to the thing that forces most people into lives they don't want. If things ever get bad, you can just die. And death isn't a bad thing, all pain goes away forever. And pushing limits like that has yet to land me in the gutter.
Everyone can do what they want with their life, but I'd much rather live a fun, carefree life of excess. I don't personally understand the value of living a grueling 80 year life where you're holding back every day and working your ass off as a slave to the system. I'd much rather use up those resources quickly and have my life be a truly amazing and satisfying experience for me.
I'm also with Winter 100%. Just because somebody else thinks they ought to "move on" doesn't mean that it's the right choice for them, and just because everybody experiences pain doesn't mean that suiciders don't have a more than fair reason to kill themselves. It really is their life to do with as they please, and anyone who would want somebody to live a joyless pain-filled life just so their family won't have to go through the inconvenience of losing them is being as selfish as they're accusing the suiciders of being.
P.S. The vatican also decided a year or two ago that suiciders no longer go automatically to hell because of their suicide.
