No I think I was painting with too broad of a brush.
There are true mental illnesses and there are cop outs using mental illness for an excuse not to deal with issues that are in front of you. The latter is what I have a huge issue with.
ETA: just like saying calling someone ignorant isn't a personal attack instead of explaining your point of view

We speak off the board. We have mutual IRL friends, and of course I know him from here. His life is really looking in a good direction right now. He is doing very well in his career.

I'm 39 now but my father committed suicide when I was 7. I actually found him. It's a pain that never goes away and when I was young, ignorant, and angry I hated him for it and considered it one of the most selfish things a person could do. As I got older, I began to feel sympathy for him. He was only 28, and as I started to get closer to his age it hit me just how troubled and helpless he must have felt. How he must have felt completely worthless and hopeless.
Now instead of anger towards him, it's just deep sympathy at how alone he had to feel.

There may be people who do it because they don't want to face the consequences of their actions, but if you believe that, you have to believe they are rational in the moments before in that they realize what the consequences would be if they didn't kill themselves and then choose to end their life to dodge the consequences.
The next step in your logic is to believe a person in a rational state of mind puts a gun in their mouth and pulls the trigger, knowing they will die.
I just don't believe those two things are congruent.

Time does not heal all wounds, but you're a stronger person due to it.

And I don't know what to tell you because I do think there are people in this world that are 100% mentally capable but don't want to deal with their issues and the easy way out is "to pull the trigger" as you put it.
We will have to agree to disagree. You have more faith in humans than I do.

Does he still wear turtle necks?

Well just saying that suicide is selfish and weak is ignorant
Look at Boosie, a fab member, who just said he struggled in the past and thought about it but was too much of a pussy to do anything about it
Like I said, it takes a lot to overcome the survival instinct. And you might contemplate that your friend had an undiagnosed mental disorder, even if not bipolar. It's the depression that gets you to that point

Yeah that's him. I don't think anyone saw it coming. My friend woke up and found his body. Just an awful situation.
