My father told me a long time ago that taking your own life is the most selfish and cowardly thing a man can ever do.
Your father seems like he was very good at parroting shite he'd heard before but not really thinking about it. Selfish kind of makes sense, but cowardly is just asinine. Someone who takes their own life faces the greatest unknown humans have, the deepest fear that we face from the time we become self-aware, and they face it willingly!! While most of us try to spend our days not thinking about death, they weigh the consequences and choose it as a better option over what they know. That's the opposite of cowardice. Those who call it cowardly are just trying to marginalize a decision that they can't wrap their heads around.

This due to not knowing any better or ever having to deal with someone that has mental problems.
I was one that did think as if someone that did take there life was a selfish act till I learn better.
The problem is that the avg Joe has never had to deal with someone that has a mental illness. That is the problem. It's still kept behind close doors.
A course should be taught in high school or even sooner.
