A person had asked me what I have against Suicidal people, it was because of a small thing I had written in my first entry. I've really got nothing against them, by all means they can live their own lives, or take it away. The thing I don't get is why they are suicidal, I see these people who cut themselves or talk about suicide for no reason. Like I've heard various stupid reasons. For example: "My mom told me to turn my music down, she sucks, my life sucks." or "My girlfriend dumped me" and such. Its not that bad, everyone goes through it. I'll give you a example of this friend I have. He lives currently with me and my family. His mom disowned him and his entire life his mother had been putting him down. She never bought him anything, but pampered her daughter. He has had several bad relationships and just about everything that can go wrong goes wrong with this guy. But you know what? He doesn't smoke, he doesn't drink, he does no types of drugs, none. He doesn't cut himself, he doesn't do all that junk. He stands up and faces each problem head on. His life has been s**t and all he does is live through it. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I've seen suicidal people talk about wanting to kill themselve over something so small when other people out there are dealing with much worse, but manage to get through it.
