Why do "loved" people kill themselves?

Post Reply New Topic

I think it doesn't always have to do with love or lack of thereof.
At least in suicide cases, it's not necessarily always about depression and/or less welcoming circumstances.

It doesn't always have to happen out of irrational thoughts from depression and suicidal thoughts.

I think it's more to do with intolerance, if, sometimes, love couldn't take that intolerance in life away.

More so if there's also no sanctuary in said intolerance -- some are just impossible situations in a person's mind, depression or not.

That intolerance is very much leading to depression though. And depression just enforces that.
Helplessness from escaping from whatever one cannot stand from.


It's mostly just about wanting to leave their current life.
Some people are too attached to the past, always thinking in what ifs, in guilt or shame or fear.

It doesn't always have anything to do with their past, their achievements, their present nor the security of their futures.
Some people are just sick of life -- burnout of life so to speak, thus refusing to try or make something new, maybe out of impatience and just wanting to "leave".

Because other people's love don't feel real, and they feel like they are undeserving of love.
Maybe they hate themselves too much to be able to accept that love.

What other's have said here holds a lot of water, as to why a "loved" person might kill themselves.

However I do have a controversial opinion that in some rare cases suicide is justified. Not everyone has a loving family, or other support unfortunately, and life is indeed very hard and the world can be uncaring. If some gets into a position where they are essentially f***ed for life, then yes suicide is justified, imo.

I just think people must be so desperate and without hope when they get to the point of ending their lives. It's very very sad.
