Question:
WHY ARE PEOPLE SO HYPOCRITICAL WHEN IT COMES TO SUICIDE?
?

I asked 2 ALLEGORICAL questions here and on other forums:

1) if you were wearing really tight shoes, 3 numbers smaller, and you were in extreme pain all your life would you keep on doing it or go barefoot?

Needless to say given under this light, and without mentioning the word EVERYBODY fears (death, suicide) people started FOR ONCE being honest and not hypocrites. They all answered "Barefoot"

2) If you had a tight noose around your neck suffocating you all your life but not letting you die completely so that the torture would be even greater, would you choose to continue wearing the noose or would you take it off and be free?

Some didn't even get the meaning hidden behind the question, being morons probably and taking it too literally, but the ones who answered said :"It's a dumb choice, why keep the noose if you can avoid it. Staying in this situation is SELF-DESTRUCTIVE." So once again people chose DEATH over living a PAINFUL AND TORMENTING LIFE. They took the ''shoes'' and the ''noose'' = life off.

They chose what is NATURAL to all humans = if there is too much pain the NORMAL reaction is to AVOID it. Nonetheless, they chose the correct option only because they didn't know what they were choosing since it was all spoken in ''code'' or in METAPHORS.

So why if I come here and ask the same but plainly as in "Is living a life in horrendous emotional pain, constantly--- like walking in shoes that don't fit and swell your feet, make them bleed, get blisters, ache or distort your spine, or like hanging from a noose that barely lets you breathe---worth it or is death ---i.e. taking the shoes or the noose off of you--- BETTER
most people will make it their own ''crusade'' to convince me that suicide is supposedly ''wrong''?

Aren't you all hypocrites.
If your feet or your neck hurt so much , you would ALL choose to RELIEVE yourself from the pain.
So why don't you let those people who feel this kind of pain on an emotional level Relieve themselves as well.

You are such hypocrites

P.S. I am not the suicidal one. I am just ONE WHO UNDERSTANDS them. You don't...

You think I don't? One of my best friends is in the hospital because she was suffocating when her mom found her. I was told she was dead at first...my friend Kennys little sister was like my litter sister. We texted for MONTHS...an abusive step dad...late night texts don't fix that. She's not in the hospital. Shell never be lucky enough to be in a hospital again. Your questions are stupid. Metaphors & the real thing aren't even closely related. Other than that your metaphors are wrong. You give examples of physical pain that would never end. What my friends didnt get...what I thought I helped them know...was that pain always ends. Things will always get better. You're the real hypocritical ***** that dares talk to me like that. I know what its like. If you've NEVER been the suicidal one then you could NEVER understand. Got that? Good. So quiet being a smart *** & tighten up. I would put up with the pain, because i have before. Or better yet I would ask for help. I would tell some body. I've never actually considered jumping or pulling the trigger & the only reason is because Jesus has been with me. But I've been in the exact same emotional pain as my friend in the hospital went through. There are so many more ways to relieve yourself. That's what YOU don't understand. Taking off your shoes doesn't have to mean killing yourself. It can mean asking for help. Making a change. It's people like you that plague us all. If YOU understand it so well why don't YOU go make a difference & go save someone's life instead of trying to get them to kill themselves. What's wrong with you.

hello. May i simply say that you are an interesting case, a crusader for suicide.



While i do not have anything against suicide, i have to agree with some people that your questions and "metaphors" were not properly conducted. First off, you didn't actually compare anything, which would mean that the noose and the shoes were more symbols than metaphors. Secondly, you compared discomforts with a major decision that cannot be taken back.



Both of the things you mentioned were bad, there was not any way that they could get better. Shoes that don't fit aren't going to fit just because you wear them, a noose will not loosen over time, it only gets tighter. And while i do not oppose someone's right to choose whether or not they live, even I have to admit that there is a possibility of life getting better in most cases, especially the lives of young people.



Both examples were essentially traps, easy answers, something is uncomfortable, get rid of it, simple. Simple, however, is something that suicide is not. There are plenty more factors than changing your shoes, such as any attachments to the world you may have developed, any people you fear you may hurt, Any loose ends that you need to take care of.



I tell you all of this, not because you're wrong on the fact that people should be able to choose whether or not to sustain their own lives, but because you are, quite frankly, being an *** about it. And if you are not suicidal, or have never been suicidal, you do not truly understand the urge.



before you speak for a group, please be sure to make sure that you actually understand.



sincerely, someone who does not need you to talk for me.

Humans are hard wired to be hypocritical and it's up to us to tape into our higher senses to override our ego.



One of the funniest things I saw was an article about how *Puffington* post as I call it was to ban anonymous comments and calling out some very real reasons why it's bad which I am not going to get into on here no matter what you craptards say!



Now what I find ironic about the hypocrisy is that the article itself forces you to register with Disqus to comment!



And the second thing is the Democrats cry and howl whenever photo voting laws are even mentioned yet they are somehow okay with real identities?



Isn't that the same as the voters photo ID law they claimed to hate?

You actually believe EVERYONE doesn't get it? ...or are you just trolling? Must be nice to know everything about everything.



Self-preservation IS natural. But humans have a choice. Some humans do not have the tolerance for pain (physical or emotion) or adversity that others do. Some humans are swept up in the moral propaganda and viewpoints of certain groups and try to force their beliefs and values on the subject on others, just as you're trying to do.



"Right" and "wrong" are relative concepts, I really hope you don't need to have that explained to you. You're right, you're absolutely right ... in YOUR world, what you think and believe to be "right" and true, are just that; in other people's worlds, it is different. I agree, no one has the right to deny anyone else their choice in what to do with their life and body, and as long as they do not prevent them from making that choice, it's not a big deal.



Oh, and there are those that don't like to beat around the bush and play little (allegorical) head games. Whether they choose to play or not; whether they get it (your particular slant on things) or not; everyone has the right be who they are ... even if you choose not to agree with them. Or do you feel that, you alone, have the right to tell everyone else what to think and believe, how to live, etc? Sounds a little like hypocrisy to me.



So, who urinated on your cheeri-o's and compelled you to get out your soapbox? What do you have against anyone thinking and believing as they choose?

I just answered the noose question without knowing about the shoes one and for some reason I chose to keep the noose on. Im quite confused as to why I said that. Hmm.

Is the dissertation you defended to get your Ph.D. online somewhere? I would really like to read it.
