We live in a cruel world. People shouldn't be driven to such actions.

While on the whole I concur with the traditional view that suicide is the cowards way out, nonetheless I feel sympathy for anyone who is so desperate as to contemplate it and more so for those they leave behind.

There's nothing easy about ending one's life. It's not done on a whim, you know.
