Alright, so this is a sensitive question because of the religious attachment. I'm not saying that suicide isn't a big thing, but when you add God into the picture a whole lot more is involved. Now...Let the madness begin.
Now since this question is religion based I have to answer it in such a way. In the bible it says that God doesn't give us more than we can handle, but who's to say we all know what that means? Some people may not realize that they haven't even reached their limit when they think about suicide. They may just think about "the now", the moment when they want to get out, away from all the problems that seem to pile up too high to think about.
Suicide is based on pure emotion. Emotion that overpowers people from deep within themselves. Be it from anger or depression, it's still powerful emotions that are balled up inside of people. When things happen to push people to that point, God isn't always in the forefront of their minds. Now, I must say a lot of people do pray, read their bibles, or think about WJWD (What Jesus Would Do), but that's not everyone.
The best answer I can give about this particular subject is that people go with what their emotions tell them to do. Just because God doesn't give us more than we can handle doesn't mean we don't always feel as if it IS more than we can handle. That's just how we're made. We don't think about how much worse it could be...And if we are suicidal and thinking about how much worse it could be, we get it into our minds that it's GOING TO BE that much worse soon. Case in point, we may be able to handle it...we just choose not to!
But hey, that's just how I see it. What do you think readers?
