Thank you for joining the discussion. 😊

I agree that most of ppl who commit a suicide must've gone through lots of pain and heartbreaks, felt lonely or rejected. 😭 I pray that none suffers this much or reaches this stage.😒

In many dramas they don't care about showing the things you pointed at in your post They make it look like a sudden thought, or a way to escape punishment.

Allah is the most mercifull. And those phrases in Holy books warning ppl from taking on their own lives, are for their betterment. Rest is for him to forgive them or not. You said it in your post that those survivors regretted thinking of a suicide. This means that those phrases are to stop those helpless ppl from killing themselves, couse if they succeed there'll be no returning back.

@maroon . So true. 😭


There is this famous motivational speaker, one of the rare aurvivors who jumped off from Golden Gate bridge and yet made it alive. In his interviews he mentions that on the day he tried to kill himself, he contemplated a lot. He stood on the bridge thinking about everything in his life. Part of him didn't want to jump, so he told himself that if one out of the hundreds of people (tourists n regulars) who walk across the bridge, stops him from jumping he would not commit suicide. One lady comes and calls him. He feels a glimmer of hope but only to be asked of he would take a photograph of hers. He feels so hopeless, unseen, unimportant... And at that moment he makes up his mind. He clicks the picture, hands the camera back to her and then jumps.

If you see the videos n interviews, you will see their body language and energy everything screams 'i give up'. the last thoughts in the minds of people who die by suicide are so painful that you can almost feel it yourself. You see and understand why they did what they did. No one wants to die....so imagine how difficult living must be for them if they choose death over life.

Well. I didn't watch the first half of this drama, so I couldn't understand Zubi's pain. But I can't see the need of killing herself when she passed the toughest experiences. She lost many ppl and moved on . She acheived many things.. this is why I felt that she shouldn't kill herself because she was going to lose Asfi's love and support . 😕

I didn't interpret it as she did it for Asfi. I felt she did it because she felt defeated. Everything she cherished was taken away from her because of that one mistake she committed. She endured the taunts n insults yet kept studying, dad died and left her under her brother's watch where she was constantly abused emotionally, she moved to her aunt's house where again she was thrown out from.. And finally when she thought her life was becoming easier, blast from the past shakes her up to the core. Asfi was the ray of sun which too would have gone away if her tainted reputation incident came uo, which would means going back to start line in personal and professional life.

Yes. I understand. So the coming back of her brother means the revealing of her past secret. And the destroy of her future. Now I can see her state of mind .😊

As for those survivors .. I can see . And it is really impossible to kill yourself knowing that it will be painfull , unless you are living in a hell.😒

Parents should avoid pressuring young children over grades.I just read an old article. A ninth-grade student committed suicide after failing an exam.

This is very heartbreaking. Such things happen , and I am sure parents don't want to loose any of their children.😭 My late brother (R.I.P.) whom I consider my guide told me to avoid pressurising anyone. I used to be very critic. But after listening to his advice I became more carefull. 🤓

RIP😭.May ALLAH have mercy upon his soul and grant him the highest rank in Jannah ameen. Why are parents so strict about their children's education?Suicide is the third leading cause of death for 15-24 year olds.My mother is also a teacher. She is very soft-spoken but studies time bht strict😕 . Parents should not put too much pressure on their children.Kids who feel like they’re under constant pressure can experience constant anxiety

If only euthanasia was a legal option. Cases like these make me root for Euthanasia. No one deserves to live with unbearable chronic physical pain/discomfort IF THAT'S WHAT THEY CHOOSE.

#DignityinDeath

dumb question but wat is euthanasia?

Euthanasia is like a assisted suicide or intentional termination of life to relieve oneself from chronic pain and suffering (provided it is approved by doctors and other concerned official parties) . In countries where it is legal, usually a doctor/medical professional assists the patient to pass on painlessly. Usually families and friends gather, say their goodbyes and then an injection and that's it. Instead of suffering for a lifetime, being a burden on family, being abused/overlooked, some people choose to end their lives peacefully. Euthanasia gives them a chance to do legally, with dignity instead of having to die by suicide which is a crime in most countries.
