IMHO, suicide is killing. It's a killing of the self.
Of course we back away from those who kill - murderers!!! But people have and will kill in ways that society has sanctioned. The hangman, the soldier, the policeman.
The vast majority of people that kill take no pleasure in their acts.
Did WWI or WWII veterans come back just to be called serial killers?
So suicides should at least be granted the disparity of their own reasons.
Not all killing is violent. Not all suicide is revenge.
And sometimes it feels like a reasonable cessation.
That said, I still miss Brianna and need her more now than I did then. I still find it hard to believe I won't hear her voice again. Life moves on and we grieve and live and it feels like a betrayal.
Sorry. Probably the wrong thread for this.
