Woman jailed for 4 years for backing out of suicide pact

[josh228]

You're a stupid asshole.

Ok man.

 

[josh228]

You're a stupid asshole. I'm not ready because death and fear of failure is scary? The fuck?? Let me see you just go ahead and do it without the blink of an eye, fuck face. No, you can't judge fully since you don't know me from a fucking whole in the wall or what kind of position I'm in. I don't want to die at all. I HAVE TO because my life is irreparably destroyed, you fucking cock sucker. I'll never be any more ready than I am now. Everyone is afraid of ctb. What the fuck are you even doing here? Get the fuck out of here.

were in the same position. I dont want to die either. I have a chronic illness. Which is exactly why i dont need help. There is no other way.

Same in the US. In my state, you can be found guilty of manslaughter if you assist a suicide. Mental illness is not only stigmatized, it's criminalized.

This is one reason I'm scared of teaming up for suicide, my luck I would end up in her shoes.

too risky.

Better off doing it alone.

yeah but youre looking at all the unicorn, fairy, everything goes to plan stuff. All the negatives shit on what you just said, no offense, Its not how shit works the vast majority of times. Dont gamble on your death, we've gamble enough on our lives already.

Id also like to reiterate that Im strongly against getting involved in another persons death.

Who are you to judge me? Why are you on this site? I didn't ask for your opinion, so you can STFU now. Find someone else to harass.

Oh, you need help buddy. You're not the only one here with chronic illness. You have no business here judging others on how they prefer to manage their life experience.

 

[DeletedUser4739]

holy shit.

Sorry to hear that.

bigj so sorry to hear what happened to you. you deserve love and compassion.

Not sure what my stance on this is, I'm sure her mental health was assessed as part of the court proceedings, and they probably found nothing to cause concern, but then again, if you ran the same tests on me, all you'd probably find is my ASD, not my very real intention to end my own pathetic existence. You cannot possibly know what goes through someone's head, to her, it could have been like a heroin addict getting a fix, and people dying was her drug. Shocking situations cause our brains to release certain chemicals, which your body can actually become addicted to, in a similar way to gambling addiction. It is kinda like gambling, all the uncertainty, then the buzz at the desired results.

There is a big difference between actively encouraging someone to commit suicide, and being involved in a situation where someone is dying and not helping them for whatever reason though, in this situation all I could do is call an ambulance/emergency services, I am not trained in first aid, so my attempts to help could land up making the situation worse, for which I would probably be sued for afterwards.

I personally think it is wrong to go out of your way to encourage someone to commit suicide, it has to be a decision they come to themselves, and go through with themselves, it's a choice and a choice should never be influenced by external factors. Most of my 'choices' have not been free at all.

She was however by NO means fully to blame for the young man's death, he'd obviously made up his mind, it doesn't matter how cheerful or intelligent someone comes over, my guess is this had been on the cards for him for a while.

If anyone's really to blame, it's the system, the pathetic NHS services in this country. I don't know why Americans so envy our healthcare system, it's bargain bin at best. He was probably on some year long waiting list for 'therapy'. I was sent for 'therapy' once and all it consisted of was writing in this silly book.

Also were 'head meds' involved? Were either of them on psychiatric drugs? These poisons are proven to affect behavior, and can lead to all sorts of things from delusions and hallucinations right up to violent outbursts. Sleeping pills that effect GABA, Benzos and Z drugs, are also from the devil, and can lead to all sorts of unusual behavior.

We don't know the details here, the news only reports what it wants us to know.

I'll completely agree with you about the head meds including the benzos...those things are pure evil in a pill form. Any Dr prescribing them longer than two weeks should be force-fed them for 6 months and then ripped off of them cold-turkey. I actually talked to a shrink one time and he said he pulls patients off of them at random cold turkey and said they don't suffer. Jah right!

That happened to me in a very roundabout way, without hijacking this thread too much, I was forced off a huge dose of 'legal high' benzos by a new law and an addiction treatment agency. The subsequent withdrawal has taken EVERYTHING good in my life away. I cannot do my hobbies anymore, I lost all my friends because I became bedridden, my life is empty now, it's just me and 30+ symptoms almost two years later.

I'm just glad I have a way out of this now, specially since I got the latest symptom, which is almost constant period bleeding and severe pelvic pain. I feel like I've been punched in the gut most days at the moment.

I am also very probably going to lose my husband too, I think he is planning on walking out after Christmas. It's impossible to live with, I don't blame him, my body is pretty much dead anyway.

no one is judging you man, im reiterating my stance. Nothing to do with you. Do what you want. We are all adults here, act like one.

 

[Escape Humanity]

I don't think it should be a crime to intentionally encourage someone to commit suicide. I can understand if it was psychiatrist / psychologist encouraging a patient to do it, but this is one situation where I think the law should be focused on personal responsibility. It's not like she forced the man to end his life.

Prison is a horrible place, but if the woman is really suicidal, maybe it will give her the courage and determination that she needs to end her life.
