People shouldn't call and have no place in calling the person who took his own life a coward anyway. He made a decision, whatever drove him to it, you will never know or fully understand.

NO. Absolutely not. It takes courage to end one's own life.
Look at the samurai and their willingness to commit suicide if they were shamed to live up to their code and religion.
It takes STRENGTH. The living are cowards.Like (3)

Unless you have walked the walk of one considering suicide you will never know what one goes through, They could be fighting the fight of their lives and one more thing gets thrown in and a snap decision is made, a decision that will for ever change the lives of every person connected to that individual. You never know what someone else is going through on the inside so stop and be kind to everyone you meet you may just save their lives, or you could be that one more thing thrown at them. Its a lot easier on everyone if we all have a little more compassion for one another and leave the name calling out whether they are dead or alive.

No, I'd never say that, I've been at that point. No one who hasn't could ever possibly presume to know how it feels.

Ok Now see i have had experience with this many times many people have died by my gun because they refused to hold X...I find people who use Second Chance just to kill themselves are cowards but if they decide to take their death like a man that IS courage
If you havent found out by now im speaking metaphorically and that this is from Call Of Duty :P
But i dont really have a right to say if anyone IN REAL LIFE is a coward for ending his/her life i dont know their story i dont know what they have been throughLike (2)

I have known four men who have hung themselves each one was very special and what I would have called beautiful people in my view these men where not weak they were broken and unable to partake in the abusive world we live in the one where we allow beautiful people to sink so low that they see no other way out of the situations they find themselves in .. Weak selfish ... No their were brave honourable people the ones I knew xx

Why? Because they have the balls to say that they are not going to take abuse anymore? I'm not trying to start a fight but I really cannot see what is so damn heroic and strong about living a crappy life day in and day out.

i do not think i could call that person a coward because i would not know what situation he or she was in
in most cases I have seen and myself committing many attempts, it is to be free from the pain and that they are not around the right people who would accept the way they are
or they were violated to a degree they belief they have no right to live anymore etc.
sometimes it seems like that is the only option.
to those of you feeling suicidal, please seek a good support system and seek help, there is someone out there to help you and work through things no matter how hard the situation is. I know how you feel and you can pull through!Like (1)

not at all.the person that did it probably endured more pain then most will ever know. to be in such pain you willake your life is alot. and actually carrrying it out... could you jump off a building or hang yourself?/ these are extreme acts that go agaist all human survival instincts... they are certainly not cowards in my opinion.. bless them at last they found peace

To be fair (and no, I'm not condoning suicide) sometimes it takes a man or woman (depends on who you are) to realize that trying to fix **** will never work.

I think they are more likely to be mentally ill than a coward.

no,if you do then it is just an opinion and you have no way of knowing what has gone on,in someone else's head or life,all their life or every moment of their life. Who has a right to judge or call someone a coward?
