Why do you think people have suicidal thoughts? Is it reasonable to result to potentially killing oneself to be able to remove the pain a person is suffering from? What are your thoughts about this matter, is it acceptable or not? Why does a person result to thinking of suicide? How can you help the person to change His/Her mind?
This is a tricky question as thoughts of suicide come to mind because of variety of reasons. It does not necessarily mean someone will follow through. Usually suicides happen because of a momentary feeling of a wall. It seems like you are stuck in a prison cell in a solitary confinement! Some people achieve peace and self awareness, but some people lose all hope! You cant convince a person to get out of the feeling, the person has to do it himself/herself. The only thing that you can do is to support the person and believe and hope!
