Suicide: An Ethical Delimna

[Mystic]

I have had suicidal thoughts. What keeps me from doing it is really that I see this life as one opportunity to form your mark on your soul and also the effect suicide will have on family.

Although my thoughts of suicide were never too serious, more like, feeling it would be just easier if I end it.

But lately I've been feeling liking leaving this world. I'm also afraid of how I can face my maker with such on undignified way of leaving. Also, it seems to be ungratefulness, not appreciating the opportunity of life.

I don't know how unethical suicide is or not, but it just seems that living is more ethical then choosing to kill yourself.

I don't only say this from the point of view of the harm it comes to others, but that you are not giving yourself the proper respect.

Also, I don't think suicide thoughts are rational with me as a schizophrenic, it comes to me irrationally...I just look at my life negatively as if I've been suffering more then non-suffering and peace, which is not true...but when the thoughts come...it feels like that and even though I know it's not true, it feels like that...
