Or they won't believe them and label them as an attention seeker.

Another very dangerous thing to do, because you never know. Suicide can also be used as a manipulation by the truly devious. ''I'll kill myself if you leave me'' etc. But it should be noted that both attention seeking and manipulative behaviours usually have roots in some kind of mental or personality disorder, and suicide is always a possibility, even in those cases. Labelling someone as an attention seeker is dangerous - not to be confused with 'attention seeking behaviour', and every human has that to a degree. When it's pathological, it's usually a symptom of a deeper issue.

Suicide is like having sex with a fat chick, you keep telling yourself you'll never do it. . .

I wouldn't call it cowardly. I do think it's naive, though.

Suicide is rage turned inward; sort of a "Look what you made me do" act, but that's not the naive part.

The people you are hoping to hurt the most won't care, and the people you wouldn't want to hurt for the world will be the most broken.

I'm not buying that. I've not known of many people at all who have committed or attempted suicide because they wanted to really teach a lesson to the people who hurt them.

The majority of suicides and attempts I'm familiar with are mainly by people with mental illness and severe depression. The image of the person angry and crying that many people associate with suicide is inaccurate. It's more of a complete numbness and indifference.

Dead Wrong.

Pun intended?

I agree. I think vindictive, vengeful suicide is rarer than people think, most mentally ill people are too isolated in their self-loathing to even bother with vengeance.
