This is fuckedup

There are more than a 1000 ways to commit suicide...why thinking like a fuckedup nutcase?

oz4real83:
it would have been better u didn't say anything instead of this your rubbish. Do u know that many Nigerians live their lives in depression because they have lost hope in life? Many want to work but no work? Many want to set up businesses but no light? Power distribution charge u estimated bills for energy they didn't supply,customers get arrested for protesting against extortion while govt watch without doing anything? Many Nigerians haven't eaten for some days,no hope for food even today. Many farmers are scared of going to farms because of herdsmen. There are many reasons that cause depression which can lead to suicide. If govt provide solutions to some of these problems,suicide will reduce by almost 98%. Next time close your mouth if u know u wanna spew thrash.

Banning sniper will not solve anything. There are many other alternatives out there people can use. The solution against suicide is to find the cause/reason behind it. The country is so messed up. Everything stopped working immediately the british handed over in 1960. Nobody sees a better Nigeria ahead because nothing is on ground to show that things will get better. Everybody needs hope but hope is not forthcoming. May God help us.

So is there hope in suicide?

JennyOfOldstones:
Exactly! Sniper was originally meant to be used in farms. The company just released an aerosol insectide. They should have done that ages ago when their products started being infamous as a means of suicide. I hope people don't get ideas about using the aerosols for similar purposes. As for reducing the amount of suicides, the ban would help greatly, people intend to commit suicides usually want a quick and relatively painless death. Other methods like hanging, cutting, drowning are too painful and onset of death is not immediate. At least it's going to much harder to buy death being sold dirt-cheap in a bottle.

Although there should look for the cause of suicide and try to solve it, at least this is a good step to show they care.
If you were in their position, what will you do anyway?
Stop coming here to rant when you know you can't do anything..instead appreciate the effort .
*Drops mic*

If NAFDAC said that only snipper one can use to commit suicide, what about an OMO detergent a 300L female student of UNIBEN used to killed herself yesterday. NAFDAC, what can you do about it.

DaddyMorenike:
God bless you. I wish I can send you something.

Not all suicide cases are due to economic hardship in fact most of the cases reported here on Nairaland are caused by heartbreak, failure to pass an exam or depression.

JOHNSONSOLAFUNMI:
So those that lives in area where there are snakes and scorpions, won't be able to get sniper to fumigate their house, A man that's contemplating suicide won't think bout sniper, he use anything available, the government should set up committee to look into the rampant cases of suicide, not just banning sniper or can they ban rope and stool

oz4real83:
take failure to pass an exam as an example. Imagine somebody who borrowed money to pay school fees to write an exam and failed. That can brIng depression and hence suicide to weak individuals. If we had a better economy,the person can decide to rewrite that exam since he/she can afford it. Hope is the centre of life. Once lost,some don't see reason to live anymore.

Barryseal:

Everything is not all about money. Suicide is not exclusive to the poor. Recall the Dr who jumped into the lagoon. He asked his driver to stop and he raced across the bridge and jumped.
How many street beggers have you seen commit suicide?

Welcome development.. Most importantly I think they should ban under age relationships...

I am not saying it is only because of money. Depression can come in many ways. I have not had electricity in my place for the past one month even though I am not indebted to bedc in Edo state. They claim some don't pay bills and hence disconnected everybody and even we that pay. I come home every night and use generator. Do u know how frustrating and depressing that can be? The noise from my generator alone is depressing but imagine adding the noise from other generators to my own? I am not always my self with this experience whenever I am going home in the evening. Depression are in different shades and govt contribute in one or two ways to them. At least 85% of depression causing factors will be removed if govt is functioning positively.
