That's just it. It's not the pain that drives people to commit suicide, it's the lack of hope. If you knew that your pain would stop in a week, or a month, or even a year, you'd find a way to hang on till then.
Pain does make people make bad decisions. The people who commit suicuide have DECIDED that their pain will never end. To me, that's an uninformed decision. There will always be another dr, another med, another treatment. To say that you've tried it all is very narcissistic.
Sorry...too harsh prolly, eh? But yeah, I make dang sure spirit doesn't give up hope. There are MILLIONS of drs out there. ONE of them HAS to have the answer.
If we can't afford them, I'll start writing them to see if someone will help pro-bono. If that doesn't work, we'll move in with family...see where I'm going? I can think of hundreds of ways to actively have hope.
I'll shut-up now.
