Truly, i can understand his state of mind
and the unbearable pain he would have endured
physically, emotionally etc
when he decided to make this end happen,
and having been through depression
and all of those suicudal thoughts
at such a young age,
i know that he must have felt
like he just could not persevere..
i wouldn't say
that it's an act of the weak,
because
anyone who knows
what it feels like to actually wish death
simply wouldn't describe it that way.
I guess some people
are just meant to carry on,
to keep searching, keep persisting..
It is of my opinion
that assisted suicide,
or any assisted death for that matter,
is sickening.
It was obviously this guy's choice,
and not seeded in his brain
by some crazy spontaneous moment..
If you're a fatalist, like me,
you might say that there's
a great cosmic reason
for all of this.
That he was "meant" to die young..
Although i
am a fatalist,
this is not what i would say.
In all of my life experience
i doubt i would come close to feeling the pain
this guy did,
what i mean is that i'm not paralysed..
It sounds like he needed a little more "life" support.
What the hell is wrong with people these days??
You just had a near life experience.
