Suicide is never an option , commiting suicide means one is weak. Their is no problem or situation that is worth a person taking his/her life. In life their is hope always hope and no problem is permanent. People need to learn that in life we have hard time and good time. Causing suicide is putting love ones and family in pain.
I agree with you on many points. But let me ask you about some situations in which suicide might seem a reasonable option:
- Have you heard of euthanasia? When a person chooses to end his life because he cannot bear the pain of the disease that will inevitably lead to his life. It is true that doctors are the ones who do this, but it is at the request of the sick person, meaning that it is suicide.
- There are cases of oppression and persecution that a person experiences, and he cannot do anything about them except to end his life. In my country, women live in situations of injustice and persecution, and they cannot prove their rights even by law. Is suicide better than continuing to suffer?
- Likewise, cases of addiction for which there is no solution, the addict in a moment decides to stop the bleeding, especially if what he is doing is harmful to those around him.
What do you think of these examples?
Euthanasia is similar but not identical to suicide, it has a whole different purpose and meaning. I'm not against it in cases of severe health issues, in which people are clearly suffering. Some instances include, being in a coma for years or facing incurable diseases, with no signs of recovery, falling into a vegetative state and so on. Only a number of countries have legalized euthanasia, including Switzerland, Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Luxembourg, Canada, Colombia, Australia, France, New Zealand and 10 states of the USA, with France and New Zealand being new additions to the list (2020-2021).
If suicide is categorized as a cowardly decision, how can Euthanasia be classified? Could you be a brave decision?
The same example applies to a soldier in the war who decided to blow himself up with a bomb when the enemy approaches him, after finding himself unable to escape, and they will kill him anyway. I remember ISIS fighters blowing themselves up in battles, and the organization uses these suicide bombers as a weapon against anyone who disagrees with them.
