Is this what we do now? Make jest of and joke about something as serious as the decision by a person to take their own life? Is this who we are as a people now? Have we become so jaded and insensitive that we can afford to mock an issue so serious and solemn that the 2018 US government Budget provided $60 million to prevent suicide in form of Suicide Prevention programs? And the Canadian counterparts provided 6 million dollars for suicide prevention in just the North Western Territories? We may not know the true extent of Suicide in this country, because mental health issues are such a taboo to us, and the idea may be unfathomable to us, culturally. But do not make the mistake of assuming that suicide is a light decision. It is not. 28 Likes 2 Shares |

Lmao at people white-knighting here. Suicide is a decision. Admittedly not an ideal one, but it's still something the person went out of their way to decide on. This post isn't trivialising it, it's simply pointing out a minor gripe about the whole thing. Post is slightly distasteful, I agree, but it's nothing to go up in arms over. 3 Likes |

HeavenlyBang: A decision? It is. "...an ideal one?" Loss of life is "not an ideal one?" "still something the person went out of their way to decide on." "Mental health disorders (particularly depression and substance abuse) are associated with more than 90% of all cases of suicide." WHO, 2018 Is Depression "still something the person went out of their way to decide on."? Alcohol and substance abuse has been classified as a disease for decades. That's because it is. An overwhelming percentage of suicides occur in the background of diminished mental capacity, either from substance abuse, or severe depression. Let us not treat severe issues with levity. I lost a sister last year, she committed suicide. So please don't come here to talk about white knighting. For some of us, it is real. Very real. 7 Likes 1 Share |

antagonist: euphemism ˈjuːfəmɪz(ə)m/Submit noun a mild or indirect word or expression substituted for one considered to be too harsh or blunt when referring to something unpleasant or embarrassing. antagonist: Your thoughts on the matter are yours, and yours alone. No one is trivialising suicide. The fact is that, whether you like it or not, suicide is a decision. One that may be promoted by an unhealthy psychological state--depression--but a decision nonetheless. There are those who suffer way more and don't choose to go that route. I'm sorry you lost your sister, and may she rest safely wherever she is. Ultimately, none of all this has anything to do with the post. Besides, OP was obviously making a reference to the woman who parked her car and jumped off the bridge two days ago, and I fail to see how it's treating the subject of suicide with levity. I'll admit, it's a tad distasteful, but it doesn't warrant any of the "woe be you" comments some have left. I have no stake in this, and possess absolutely zero interest in embarking on a psycho-philosophical discourse on the concept of suicide. |

HeavenlyBang: If you truly fail to see how casual, off-hand remarks about leaving car keys while contemplating and carrying out such a tragic course of action is the very definition of trivializing suicide, then that's unfortunate. Your opinions and thoughts are noted. We can agree to disagree. 5 Likes |

GAZZUZZ: u attempt to save the drowning by diving as well. we all know that whoever want to commit suicide has made up his/her mind, so diving with him/her is not a rescue attempt for the person involved, but for the keys of the sweet ride that kazeems will later abuse in an attempt to open, start and drive PS make sure u come out alive as well 3 Likes |

The decision to commit suicide is a bad one, but the decision to drop the car key and make someone else happy is a good one. Driving to a place where an individual will commit suicide can even cause more injuries to innocent road users While trecking can lead to a change of mind. 2 Likes |
