I agree with adamEcstacy to an extent. Those medical conditions would have to be pretty extreme

I have lost count of how many times I've said depression is an illness and many people can't come to grips with how it functions. Maybe you should do some research on how all these mood disorders effect someone before posting in this debate...[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC] -
My uncle has an uncurable depression (no idea on name). He lives a very sad and lonely life. Yet he continues to carry on living. Why is it diff for anyone else?

because everyone is affected differently
no two people are the exact same -

That's one case of depression, it can differ from each person.
Perhaps your uncle has bipolar disorder (manic depression) which involves rapid cycles of manic and depressed moods, it can be treated but not cured and very rarely leads to suicide.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC] -
Well he hasnt been happy at all since his very early 20's. its not bipolar, as ive asked my mum on a few occaisions.

Very true.... It hurts, the person effected by depression and those effected by the person. Were you looking/wanting something? And did you find it?

I cannot make my mind up on this subject. I've been through the depths of depression and attempted suicide 3 times and I know how fucking hard it is to see the light at the end of the tunnel, and how you just want to end it. But on the same token, I don't believe it's right to be so selfish and take your own life.
I've not only attempted suicide, I've had friends succeed at it, the youngest being just 15. I know the affects it has on your family and loved ones and I don't find that fair at all. But I know how shit Meeckal's life was for him over his last 3yrs of living, and in a morbid kind of way, I was happy for him. He made a decision to end it all and find his peace. It was an open casket at the funeral and I went up and had a few words to him, the whole time just looking at him. I could see that in those last few seconds, he was happy. He was at peace, finally. I think it kind of helps me to forgive him for taking his own life, knowing that he was happy for just a few seconds.[CENTER][SIZE=1][SIGPIC]http://img513.imageshack.us/my.php?image=banksy10243ee2.jpg[/SIGPIC]

Some of the things in life, that we seek cost much more than most realize. I'm glad he found what he was looking for.
He never died... he is just at rest, in peace

There are actually some people out the who dont have family and who dont have friends, what happens then does that make suicide right?
I agree with whoever said it, i cant remember that we dont have the right to decide whether people want to take their lives or not. If they no longer think their life is worth living i think it is a lot worse to hold someone back in a life they hate than to just let them go. Although i think trying therapy or anti-depressants first is a good idea.[CENTER]

Of course it should be legal. The people that want to kill themselves won't stop because it's against the law, nor should they have to feel like shit lawbreakers if they get out of it.[CENTER][FONT="Garamond"]This is the part of me that needs medication
This is the part of me that believes in heaven[/FONT][/CENTER] -
Technically it is already legal as it is not illegal :p[CENTER][SIGPIC][/SIGPIC] [/CENTER]

well yea it should be legal i mean why not?? the laws ok letting you go to war and die for people you dont know....plus your not hurting anyone but yourself (i know i know your hurting the people around you to) i mean i personally think people should realize if you really truly want to leave it means people havent cared enouph or it means you cant get rid of your past and a whole bunch of stuff just let them go let them be happy...is it so bad letting a person be happy?? i would suffer a millon times if people would just be happy i have feeling like sh*t i dont want people to feel thesame way
yess lt them go[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
Nytol Sleep Aid: "Warning: May cause drowsiness." (and.. .I'm taking this because???....) -
maybe under a clinical environment, but it's not fair on anyone if you jump off a building and land in front of someone; why should they have the image of a dead body engraved in their mind forever?
if you could go to a doctor and apply (some measures would be needed to ensure you're not insane and are certain that it's what you want etc etc etc), then in a controlled environment, i think suicide should be legal
