Sometimes it scares me as to how rational it feels and seems. People say that suicide is cowardly, but if they had to live with my brain, would they think the same thing?
For me it's a not a permanent solution to a temporary problem. It's a permanent solution to a problem that is going to plague for the rest of my life and a person can only suffer so much. Take pills. Try this and that only to end up feeling much worse.
I very much want to leave this world. And I think that with the amount of suffering I have gone through I earned the right to make that decision. People wouldn't think I was a coward if they had to live in body for a week! Actually we are all very strong people.
