You choose the Tobin Bridge as your place to end it all. But wait there is a sign!! Maybe some one will listen! or maybe not.

Help's only one call away

I think they should have a suicide bridge. let the crazys jump. Eliminating the weak from our society should be a national goal, and any whiney b**** to freaking sorry for him/herself to tough it out dosent desrve to live on earth. My message to all considering suicide? get it over with so i dont have to lisent to your b****ing. Pft, your coping out and you have no respect from me. *should never be on a suicide hotline*

dang... buda seems upset.

A hotline is a decent idea, though, it would help to have a correct number. Nothing more depressing than getting ready to jump, calling, and hearing "We're sorry, the number you have dialed, is no longer in service. Thank you!"

Either you will get reeeeeaaaaaaaly super pissed, or just start laughing. Either way, you still would probably end up jumping.

Yeah, I understand Buda's frustration, but...some people recover from that and don't think of it anymore.

Some are looking for attention, some, sometimes the ones that never tell you they're going to jump, are looking for an easy exit from a life that seems not worth living.

But, if they are helped out of that life, out of that miserable situation, they usually get better.

I did...I know that. Very Happy

Although I don't agree 100% with the way Buda is putting it. I do believe that suicide is ... for lack of a better term at current... stupid. I just don't feel that life could NEVER be that bad.

Even if things look hopeless, there's the chance that things could get better. It's the chance that would drive me to see the next day.

yeah i know it was a little harsh Embarassed

but for some reason, just the thought of someone commiting suicide for no reason pisses me off. it just feels wrong to me. i realy have no other way to discribe it.

Its not that people wanna really Die.
They just don't want to have to suffer anymore. There are people out there who aren't blessed with friends. So they don't have anybody to show them another way out. Or they don't realize what Shino was saying, that someday things might be better. You never know what's lying around the corner, none of us can predict what the future holds for any of us, but it's worth living to find out, no?

Personally If I felt like I did not want to live any more I would at least get a huge insurance policy and then get a extremely dangerous job. Not only would the job probably be very interesting and high paying if you die while on the job curtain policies pay double if you die on the job. A death will be taken a lot easier with millions.

People would say, “He knew that in-air repairs of aircrafts over Africa was dangerous but that never stopped him. It is nice to know that he was killed instantly by the fall before he was devoured by the lions.”

Only in in Kenya!!!!!!!!!

It your life, imho, and your welcome at at time to mangle it, mutilate it, tattoo it, laud it, exploit it, kill it, or do what what you want with it. Some people feel that taking their life is the only freedom they have left, sometimes. But Ive never been in that situation fortunatly.

Back on topic - could these peopel not just purchase that phone number and redirect it over to the proper line? I mean, I dont mean to sound like a winey butt, but why wait for the signs to be fixed when about an hour on with the phone compnay will at least get people calling the correct number?
