And when they are ready to exit. In the business world, everyone is paid in two coins - cash and experience. Take the experience first; the cash will come later - H Geneen

I don't know if I agree with that... valid all the same... But it's the most selfish act. Why "selfish"? Coz of those you leave behind spouse, parents, kids, siblings, friends People are left blaming themselves Just leave a nicely written suicide with a clear reason why. then the rest wont blame themselves. In some communities you are flogged then buried at night that way those left behind wanabaki with no guilt Hahaha! It's not cool to extinguish oneself.. Shows a real weakness in resolve and lack of faith in higher powers

This is rubbish. Life is precious. Homicide and suicide are both an abomination before our Lord of lords Jesus Christ. One of the ten commandments says : thou shall not kill. Period. But still I suspect wichtcraft is under influence of prominent people committing suicide. Exorcism is necessary from annointed servants of God. John 5:17 But Jesus replied, “My Father is always working, and so am I.”

That is ending life on your terms, nothing wrong with that. At end of the day we will all die, regardless. In the business world, everyone is paid in two coins - cash and experience.

Your philosophy sounds like that of an atheist. And you believe that we'll all die therefore no reason for existence. So frustrating and pathetic like the depression plunging prominent personalities into suicide. Religious people think that way but the kingdom people are full of joy and fulfillment. John 5:17 But Jesus replied, “My Father is always working, and so am I.”

Carbon monoxide after a tired day By the way, I know a jamaa who survived a jiko on his first attempt. He took booze first then blacked out but woke up fresh in the morning. He was separated from his wife so the neighbor's housii went in and woke him up after suspecting something. But on his second attempt some days later, he succeeded.

People are disturbed. Do you really think it's mental illness? I think it's not for most, most decide with rational and clear minds. (By the way, who has watched this movie called Bird Box?)

Even here there's a wazuan whose rattling posts just scream'help'. All the gra gra is a deep cry for attention. I rem this dude on one 9ja forum who would not let people breathe.Always lashing out with big words and super proud till I used to admire his mchongoano cz they were hilarious.  He was admirable and a very intelligent character.. 'online' always answering every post where he was mentioned. Turned out he was a cyber con,broke,depressed and wanted. When those who had interacted with him started talking the forum was on fire. Chesos! Relax breathe in and out. You don't owe anybody your life.Ok no one even cares what you do except your fam. And When you feel fed up..call a friend like swenani. "The true measure of a man is how he treats someone who can do him absolutely no good.

This guy should have gone immediately after his first try, there shouldn't have been a second suicide attempt, here's is why he survived:- https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2353360

A lot of suicides in men are from putting so much stock in a relationship to the point where their identity is tied to the relationship. When the relationship goes south, the man hits rock bottom because he did "everything he was supposed to" na bado things went kaput.

When the relationship goes south, the man hits rock bottom because he did "everything he was supposed to" na bado things went kaput. The problem is that an identity is a product of relationship. Maybe we're talking about a catch 22. But today in the morning, in the midst of anguish, I remembered my mother. Mother...
