>>7064303 (OP)

Doesn't suicide invalidate the whole concept of resting in peace? I don't understand.
>>
>>7064333
From a theological stand point, yes, but people dont know about that. RIPing the facebook page of some girl is the XXI century form of mourning
>>
>>7064333
I guess if your issues are bad enough, death seems like a more peaceful option

You're probably right, though
>>
>>7064356
except that this girl had a lot of really close friends in real life, and they're genuinely mourning her, facebook is just a means of expressing it and getting the word out.

We're probably going to have some kind of real memorial service for this girl, I don't know yet
>>
>>7064356
I was raised in a Christian private school, the teachers were commonly split on the whole "does suicide equate to going to hell" deal. Some said yes, since it's viewed as a great sin and almost like the "easy way" to get to God, but some said no, in that God would understand the suffering.

I feel the former has more evidence but I guess it's slightly up to interpretation
>>
>go on /r9k/
>someone asks for my picture
>link it to them
>some anon begs me to kill myself
every goddamn time
>>
>>7064399
Yeah, because of this happening I know I'm never going to make another suicide-related joke on the internet, ever again

Rape jokes and suicide jokes are extremely distasteful and someone who has been affected by such things can't find them funny.

Or at least I don't, right now
>>
>>7064394
I was raised a Catholic in a former catholic society (Quebec) and even now that we are more secular, suicide is still seen as something really bad and hurtful that none should do and that you should seek help when feeling down.

Anyways, the value we put on life has not changed, wether we consider it a gift from God or just some hazard.
>>
>>7064433
I posted because I don't find it funny either. I've been feeling like shit since the last time this happened.

And I feel sorry for you OP. She didn't deserve a fate like that.
>>
>>7064435
from my non-religious standpoint, a young person committing suicide is still a terrible waste of potential, and it's absolutely true that she should have gotten help instead of doing this.

This girl was 21. 21 year olds killing themselves has a huge and terrible impact on the natural order of things.
>>
>>7064457
Just wondering, how many times has something like this happened to you?

Just wondering if a friend's death has the same impact later on, or if it becomes easier
>>
>>7064457
you're okay, ugly transfag
>>
>>7064503
I haven't lost a loved one (yet) that I truly cared about, let alone one from suicide, so I don't know. I only know from experience of suicidal ideation that it's not funny.
>>
Sounds like you harrdly knew her, why do you care?
>>
bumpu for more sad stories
>>
>>7064545
>this is the quality of trolling on r9k
She was my close friend, for a long time, before she expressed any kind of romantic interest in me.

It feels like, if I had just done things differently, maybe asked her out a few months earlier, things would have turned out differently.

I never was really able to ask her why she rejected me later on, and now I'm never going to know why

And I care because she was raped, and apparently the guy who did it hasn't been found or arrested yet. I want revenge on him.

You asked for it.

>a few years ago
>uncle is depressed, financially unstable, married to a woman who he hates, but has two beautiful sons who he loves more than anything
>one night
>he downs an entire bottle of wine at once
>he takes out a gun, walks up behind his wife and shoots her in the head
>his ten-year-old son (my cousin) comes in to see what the noise is, he shoots him in the head too
>goes into his other son's room (5 years old) and shoots him in the head
>worried about losing his kids to his bitch wife in a divorce, apparently he felt thought he was liberating his boys from a life of inevitable suffering
>he shoots himself

I didn't even know my uncle that well, but dear god did it tear my grandfather up inside. How that man is still able to function and enjoy any aspect of life after losing his only son and half of his grandkids in one fell swoop is beyond me.
>>
>>7064635
Wasn't trolling, you didn't say that you were close friends which was a pretty important piece of information.
>>
I don't know why I want to commit suicide. I have a decent enough life; a job, my own flat, hobbies to keep me occupied - but I'm constantly thinking about it. Like, I see a car coming, I'll want to just jump in front of it, be holding a knife and want to slash my wrists, be taking medication and getting curious about how much is needed for an overdose.

It's not just a passing fancy either, it's a really strong desire that will stay with me for the rest of the day. I don't really understand it.
>>
>>7064662
I guess close friends is exaggerating, I'll concede that, but were were friends. I probably cared a lot more about her than she did about me.

Even if I hadn't known her very well, it's perfectly reasonable to feel bad about a suicide.

she had other friends who meant a whole lot more to her than I did, and they are obviously feeling a lot worse about this than I am

I was enough involved in her life that I could have made a difference, and for various reasons that didn't happen.
>>
>>7064660
Uncle did what he thought he had to do, that's all a man can do really. The moralfags will come In here but I don't condemn him for what he did.
>>
>>7064714
I don't think you really have to be a moralfag to object to murdering two young children.
>>
>>7064660
That's a dramatic enough story that I'm curious as to if there are any news stories or anything related to it.

>tfw I don't actively want to kill myself but if a car hit me or something, I wouldn't really mind

What is this feel
>>
>>7064761
An utter lack of care. I know that feel too..

No point in living, no point in dying.
>>
>>7064777
>>7064761
Trying to improve your own life or make a difference in others' lives, even if there's a lot of pain involved, seems like a much better option than suicide

There's a /b/ motivational image with Christopher Walken's face that preaches this same message
>>
>>7064714
He murdered his two innocent children. What the fuck.

I didn't even know this article existed until now. Fuck you for making me google it.

Also I guess I got some of the details wrong. What the fuck ever.
