Suicide pacts and those trendy, trendy kids
So I read this article talking about these two 14 year old French girls who bound their hands together and jumped off a 17th story apartment balcony as part of a suicide pact.
Now I can understand (although I don't agree with it) someone committing suicide by him or herself, whether it be because of problems at home or just depression in general... but when its done as a group (or in this case, a pair), I just don't get it. That would mean more than one person shares the exact same negative outlook on life and feels that suicide is the answer. How can more than one person agree on killing themselves? My roommates and I can't agree on what channel to watch. I dunno, I guess I'm pretty naive... but suicide pacts are just the stupidest shit in the world. Go start a softball league, form a band...something. Killing yourself is so in right now, its pathetic.

I have to imagine that in alot of cases, people in that state of mind have friends who share the same viewpoint/outlook on life as they do...misery loves company, ya know? ;) So I guess they just figure they might as well do it together, rather than do it alone? I don't know...I've never been in a situation where I felt that suicide was the only answer...but I guess I can kind of see where having somebody with you might be comforting?? I don't know....yeah, I don't know ;) Just disregard this post and/or me :D

I can say from experience, it's hard to understand but not altogether impossible to explain. I'm very bipolar and when I got to college, I became a magnet for other mentally ill people and there were occasions where two of us were suicidal sitting in the same room and talking about why we bother and how hard it actually would be to go through with it, but we ended up realizing that each of us owed it to the other to survive and that it wouldn't really solve anything. But, with 14 years of maturity and life experience and the intensity of an onset of clinical depression or bipolar, your brain can be an atom bomb and rationalizing their way out of suicide was likely near impossible. And, with the other person willing to join them in the endeavour, it probably looked a lot more sensible. It's easy to tell yourself something like that is crazy, but when somebody else is telling you it isn't at the same time, it could be very hard. Not only that, but one of the aspects of a suicide pact is not to tell anybody else, so the feelings become insulated and just bounce off two suicidal people.

I dont know the exact percentage but most sucide victims realize at the moment of truth that they want to live.
I suppose doing it with someone else there would make it easier. "Hey Alice I really want to live." "Kind of late for that Mary seeing is that we are heading towards the pavement at 9.8ft per sec. and have reached terminal velocity." What these folks need to do is get old Tyler Durdan to put a gun to their heads so they can realize what they have to live for. Shit man at least stick around to aggravate the rest of the world.
