A suicide note that should be read by everyone

[MHz]

The issues get complicated when it turns into an attempted suicide, do you help the guy back onto the chair or up the stairs, take 2? (ignoring the 'just say no' rule) Probably explains all the ones that are via 2 bullets to the back of the head.
No note, suicide by a coward.
Really long note, he should have been more of a coward.

I would consider fighting for life in the case of mental illness to include fighting for appropriate mental healthcare.

Sadly thats a fight that is rarely won around here. Our mental healthcare system is a joke.

because it fits into a pattern of a trivialization of life into a maudlin formula of pleasure seeking as containing life's full and only substance..

You only live once so you might as well enjoy it.

That may be but whether or not to fight for something shouldn't be predicated on the likelihood of winning but on the worthiness of what you are fighting for. Bottom line for me personally is what the prognosis ultimately is, when we are dealing with something, like ALS for example, where the prognosis is not only fatal but horrendous in it's final stage, it is entirely a different matter than an illness where some semblance of a decent life can be obtained. Even someone with a severe mental illness who must be medicated and/or constantly monitored can potentially have some joy, albeit small joys, in their life.
