How to treat suicide?

Unless you are old and have no friends or family and then it isn't too bad.

I mean sure, I should reiterate. The only time I can think of it as appropriate is if you are dying of a terminal disease and you know it's going to be a slow agonizing death. I wouldn't want to subject my family to having to watch me slowly die knowing there is nothing that can be done.

I attempted suicide. Afterwards, I realized that suicide is in a way a cowardly way out of a bad situation. And whoever or whatever brought me to this point in my life would have won if my suicide was successful. And that was something I couldn't stand. This new perspective helped me changed my life.
I met people afterwards who also attempted suicide and either didn't go through or survived the attempt. I held no sympathy for them, because they used it to play the victim card and didn't even try to get help or change anything.

I am not over my psychological problems. So to speak, I am still sick. The difference to those people is, I made it work. I have learned to distingush myself from my paranoia. It is still there, the thoughts, the feelings... but I am in control.
