When I was 16 my brother went out on an isolated road and stuck a shotgun in his mouth and pulled the trigger. It was not about being selfish, it was about being in so much pain that death was better than life. I have been there myself. I will always respect him for doing it in a place where his family did not have to find him. I believe he is in a better place and I hope he found the peace he needed.
My brother commited suicide 7 years ago. I have thought about it from every angle I know how and the bottom line is it was something he always wanted to do. Not so temporary. The part about the brain physiology shed some light on this and then the ending slammed the door closed.
Instead of telling people that suicide is selfish, maybe you should look at it from their point of view. Have you ever felt the way they have? So hopeless you can't even get up in the morning? Would you tell someone with cancer to just get over it? Move on with life? It's a mental illness, and its not just something you can overcome easily. Fuck therapy, fuck medication. Nothing anyone can do can make a person with real psychological problems better.
Is it weird that I'm watching this beacuse my Prozac has changed side effects, and instead of knocking me out, has made me wide awake at 2 in the morning?
Watching this has made me glad that I went to my doctor when I did.
The people in this movie keep accusing the ones who killed themselves of being selfish. How about you yourself stop being selfish for a second and think about the horrific pain and emotional pressure your loved one has to have been going through to come to this point? If it was the right thing for them to do, let them go. It's not their job to exist for you.
@Contraproductive How about you think of the emotional scarring of people who find you and the people you leave behind when you take your own life. Reach out for help, don't let it build. It IS selfish.
@lisshumblegenius How bout you think about the physical exhaustion and emotional pain of the victim before they committed suicide? I hate that people say it's selfish. You know what's selfish? The fact that people completely forget about all of the mental anguish the person had to go through to actually get to that point in their life. Yes people should get help but not everyone has help available to them. Not everyone is lucky enough to have a support system.
What the gravedigger said was just wrong no one deserves to go to hell... And i agree with the fact that being mad at someone who commited suicide is just as selfish.
@M1STAY I totally agree. I really think suicide is, in a way, a selfish act and most of the people who commit suicide don't realize how much they hurt their friends and family... but those people have really suffered to come down to this option... at a point where they just want to stop living to make the pain go away, that doesn't mean they should burn in hell for their act, they just needed help...
I was truly moved by this documentary , especially as i knew quite a few people who did this. As sad as I've been over there suicide ,I've felt nothing but love and a want to understand what they were going threw. How ever i must say they were my friends or people i knew , not family no one i grew up with, am now wondering having seen and heard what the brother said and felt regarding his brothers action in taking his life, what that might mean to me ,knowing the love i have for my family
We should not be angry with people that suffer from illness and end up committing suicide, doing that is really what's selfish. If we truly want to help others, we need to be compassionate and try to understand their feelings...
You are wrong there is nobody who wanna die unless they have a terrible painful sickness. Suicide is all about pain no matter how old you are. The pain is most times of mental character. But you can be very sick on a physical level fex. cancer that can give you unbelievable pain, even that much pain that not even morphine can relieve it.
I agree that it was a horrible ending to this documentary. I have been suicidal myself. More than once. I suffer mental illness. I have O.C.D and Bipolar II Disorder. I have had severe depression and post-natal depression. I once lost 17 kilos in six weeks from walking the floor with anxiety. I ended up in a mental health program for 8 months after that... I have been on medication for 14 years. I guess my OCD has actually stopped me from killing myself, because I'm terrified of dying!
@Trulore1 I watched my Father die of Cancer, and he wanted to live so badly...I have HUGE issues over his death/watching him die/knowing he never did understand me. As a child, I was so terrified that one day, people would realize there was something wrong with me and cart me away to a mental hospital or something, so I hid a lot of my self-destructive thoughts. I overdosed at 17, ending up in hospital, but my parents chose to ignore it, seeing it as attention seeking, which I suppose it was..
@Trulore1 I actually have a supposedly high IQ, which is great, but has never really helped me much. Sadly, a lot of people who suffer from depressive illnesses, seem to have quite high IQ's. High IQ's often seem to go hand in hand with imaginative, emotional human beings. I've been published with poetry and short stories...But, when you are in that place, at that time, everything is so dark. You don't think about anything else except that feeling of hopelessness...
@Trulore1 Medication has helped to improve my life. I have a loving Husband of 13 years and 4 beautiful children. I try my best to not let my children be affected by my problems, and when symptomatic, I usually have a warning before things get bad, and I remove myself from being around my kids. I don't want my fears to impact on them. And I do know they need me. They will only ever have one mother, and no one will ever love them more than I do, and that is to Infinity And Beyond..
@Trulore1 People who also suffer depression &/or mental illness, in your well moments, at least stop to think then. Try to seek help before it's too late. Medical intervention can help and is worth a try. I have counseling, and it often does help to talk to someone who won't judge. Choose your professional carefully. And if you decide to end your life, discuss it with SOMEONE you love FIRST. Do it AWAY from home. Leave letters to your family so they know they weren't to blame.
Excellent work. I hope this video makes people think twice about taking their own life. And the ending was fine, pretty much just recapped what was already said and stressed the importance of the impact of suicide. Other than the old man nobody said anything about anyone going to hell. Remember gods the judge, not that old man, you or anybody else.
@ev7007 Please, stop polluting people's minds with this "god" garbage. How can you be so stupid that you believe there is a god? Do you think there really is something up there that lets all these evil in the world roam free? Do you think there is something up there that lets wars go on, famine go on, murder, rape, torture, psychopathy, violence? If there is a god that lets this go on, FUCK HIM. FUCK GOD.
Don't worry about these ignorant idiots. There is no hell, and there is no heaven. When you die, that is it. The time you got here, on this f**ked up planet, is THE only time you will have. There is no other time, no other life out there. Make sure you really wanna die before you do, because this IS the only time you will be alive. Not that this is anything worth living for. Only an idiot would say "what a wonderful world". But there are small pleasures here. Try them all before you go buddy.
@mickeymyers13 Well you have it all figured out, don't you? Odd, I see things much differently then you do just as others see things in their own way. for those who have crossed over and came back they will say there is a life after death. I for one have seen the other side.
@justearthsguest I would love to believe that there is 'another side'. I don't know if I have it in me to believe after the things I have seen, but to believe that must bring a wonderful kind of peace.
@braselton94 There should have been a warning before that bit, although I found it kind of weirdly interesting. I know about the Seratonin bit, because I suffer from an imbalance of that, which is apparently what causes my OCD. I know that because medication does help to relieve my symptoms...& no, it doesn't 'zonk me out into La La land', although, wouldn't that be nice...!
The man who is asking all the questions to the undertaker seems so....fake. it like he is feigning any real sympathy and is just asking questions just to do his job answering questions. how sad a thing that is on such a heart wrenching topic such a suicide.
Thank you so much for this documentary. You are right in that, they do it to get even with the people around them. I didn't find my fiancee, Thank God! But the detective and the coroner told me that he left I note stating that I would pay for what happened that day. Thank you so much for this film. God be with you.
@The1968Mom I'm so sorry that happened to you. What a dreadful thing to do to someone you supposedly 'love', leaving a note like that... I would feel angry, rather than guilty. I hope you went on to really LIVE your life.
The thing about this doc that gets me is that they talk about how selfish the people are that commit suicide but then lack the ability to see how selfish it is to make someone else's suicide a crime against them.
@yes333yes Just don't leave someone you supposedly love, to clean up your blood or brain splatter...what a HORRIBLE thing to do to a mother/partner/child!
Another thing...I do feel bad for those left behind, I can't imagine what it would be like, but these brothers seem to be victimizing themselves by hating their brother for what he did. It seems like they could not care less what their brother was going through and that makes me a little irritated.
@LonerlovezL I think they kind of skewed the brother's comments to suit themselves. I'm sure they feel a mix of sorrow/anger/guilt/loss/love for their brother. I know I would be feeling all those things... I think the producers were probably selective in the footage they showed, because they are trying so hard to get through to people that are considering suicide as an answer...
I hate the saying: "Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem" which they used earlier in the documentary. I am one of those mentally ill people. I suffer from depression and G.A.D. (neither of which are rare, by the way). These are things I will have to deal with for the rest of my life! Its not temporary! *Not that I'm suicidal, just pointing this annoyance out
@LonerlovezL I haven't finished watching this whole thing and I agree with you. I was diagnosed with clinical depression when I was 13 and I am now 22. I still have it and therapy and medication have not helped me. It's not a temporary problem at all, FOR SOME. I think what they are trying to get at however, is that certain problems, like losing your job or your girlfriend IS temporary and you will get over it, but mental "illnesses" and "disorders" NEVER go away. They don't say that.
@HallowsReign23 I agree. They don't mention that these are problems the sufferer will have FOREVER and that controlling/managing those conditions will be a life-long challenge, and, often, a struggle that seems almost unbearable...
one last cigarette and went to sleep without the breathalyzer.. and passed away over night, knowing he would not wake up the next day. I find to do something like that takes a lot of guts, but I also understand his reasons for doing that. If you knew someone who was suffering from something that could never be cured and wanted to be let go.. would you allow them to go to relieve them from the pain? As to why suicide is a tricky subject.
@VenusAdept I believe in voluntary Euthanasia. I watched my Father die of Cancer. But someone choosing to end their life due to incurable illness/disease is a different subject to the stories described here. I have been suicidal at times due to mental illness/depression. At those times, I could see no light in a dark, dark place. But when I recovered from those times, I could see that I had reasons for being here. If we can urge ONE person who is in that place, to seek help...
suicide, it depends on the circumstances. Like.. I've felt many degrees of main so I know the want to want it to end. And I did want it to end.. but I decided to fight through nonetheless. But in cases where people are ill.. like my fiance's uncle for example.. he was diagnosed with lung cancer at a stage, a late stage.. to the point where he couldn't breathe without a machine. His father, my fiance's grandfather, was that way before he died. The uncle didn't want a similar fate, so he (cont.)
@VenusAdept Again, I do agree with Euthanasia...I'm sorry for the way those you loved had to go. My Dad's Cancers/slow death were horrible for everyone. He was so brave, and he so wanted to live. Cancer sucks. If he had chosen to end his life when he was terminally ill, I would have understood. he was stronger and tougher than I ever would have been...
That gravedigger was an asshole. Imagine if his son heard him say that. Anyway I've been on and off suicidal for over 10 years now, but me I always knew I wouldn't do it because I always cared for others before myself. I knew what it would do to my family.. and I always kept fighting hoping that the next day would be better than the last. My teenage years were the worst.. but now that I'm a grown woman, it has gotten a lot better. Ever since after college. But yeah.. I'm for and against (cont.)
This was terrible. I feel like this documentary "villanizes" people who deal with depression and find there way to suicide. I understand wanting to see suicide for the survivors. It's important. But telling a mother that her son is a selfish, arrogant, self centered, short sighted and horrible person for killing himself does more damage than helping her to understand why he may have done this and why this isn't her fault. IMO.
@scumgod13 Yes, I think so, having seen a few medical autopsy videos. If it's a fake, it's high budget film quality, which seems kinda unlikely in a YouTube vid
That grave digger was an ignorant prick saying people who commit suicide should go to hell. Suicide is not a choice, it's the result of a sometimes terminal medical condition(depression) Also, the old guy said his son had attempted, so you'd think he'd be more understanding. There did seem to be a lot of blame floating around in this doco, but at least it's bringing attention to an issue that seems to get worse every decade
Thank you for producing and posting this documentary. It was enlightening to see the topic spoken about from so many different perspectives, with the final, scientific/medical one offering a small glimpse of hope for the future. I hope this endeavour has, in some small way at least, helped you and your brother to deal with the pain of your loss. Remember though, that even remembering your brother in anger is, in a way, honouring his memory because you are not forgetting him.
This 5th grade kid had to have more going on in his life than getting in trouble with a teacher. But when I was 9 I tried to hang myself.It was in our Barn and the rope had knots in it or something.I just remember it jerked and jerked my neck popping the whole time.I woke up on the floor of the barn with my sister screaming.I was trying to get away from child abuse.I had to explain what happen to my mom,tried saying I got scratched up in woods but no go.I wish it would have worked in a way.
@scumgod13 I'm so sorry. I hope you have received help, both emotionally and through counseling. I hope your abuser was brought to punishment. Good Luck to you.
Well, sorry God, I don't believe in you, now ain't that a shame? And keep it up you tender-hearted Christians, "that son of a bitch", oh i bleed for you.
Suicide. Completely endorced,encouraged and advised by the US Government,global elites,eugenists,and the New World Order.Save Bill Gates a few dollars and off yourself before the NWO has to do it for you.Better yet,take as many banksers and politicians with you as you can before you turn it on yourself and leave this shit pinata they call earth.
@911tourettes Awww! He don't like it! Poor baby. So the the world revolves around YOU and what YOU want? Here's an idea. Instead of being a freedom hating anti American commie rat traitor who hates the "1st Amendment",next time someone writes something YOU don't like,instead of crying in your Ovaltine about it like a sniveling little spoiled brat who think's that the world only exists to dearve YOU,just "ignore" it like a REAL American would,Mr.Fascist lover.
So as to say: You don't understand me. You're only thinking about your own pain. But that, sincerely goes for both sides. Before and after the suicide.
These are my thoughts on this documentary as I watched along:
"...not aware of how much these peole hurt as well. Drowning in guilt. No understandable possiblity of suicide. It's a new dimension of unbearable pain because even though I am alive, I don't stay true to the people I love because I can't build an honest life with them."
Fucking awful! They ended this so horribly with the guy saying people who kill themselves should go to hell. They have a mental illness! So people with mental illness should go to hell???? That's like saying if you have cancer you should go to hell! This documentary was awful! Placing so much blame.
@leighannenoelle That was just some guys religious view. This documentary shows compassion for people suffering, weather they feel like killing themselves, or they are a person who has lost someone to suicide.
@love4musicuk I don't agree at all! I felt more like they focused on what you'd leave behind and not making more of a focus or understanding that people who kill themselves are mentally ill. At the end the two brothers were both still pissed off...like they hadn't learned anything!
@leighannenoelle I agree. I really feel like they missed the point. I don't know what the brothers' relationships were like with each other, it's obvious that they feel negatively towards his death for whatever reason, but I really don't think it was a good way to generalise suicidal people in a somewhat negative, subjective way. It shows a complete like of empathy and understanding and makes for quite a dry documentary. It lacked a message failed to really explain anything.
@leighannenoelle Thank goodness that the creepy gravedigger guy has just one of many possible scenarios. I had 2 sisters that committed suicide 3 years apart. And plz believe me when I say, I wish someone would slap his ugly face so hard that he would have to walk backwards to see where he is going.
@leighannenoelle - Agreed. I was moved by much of this documentary, but when I saw the final 30 seconds, I was absolutely shocked. The filmmakers did such a good job of establishing many scientific facts about suicide, the correlation to mental illness, and the studied and learned motives behind the act of suicide, then they do a 180 and choose to end the film with one of the most UN-scientific voices giving one of the most biased outcries against suicide. What a letdown.
@HollywoodLito What ,do you mean the brother at the end speaking? Did you think him sharing his anger over what his brother's suicide and the effect it had on him dull the end of (in my opinion) a remarkable documentary, a powerful subject if nothing else!
@drstew1 - No, I meant giving so much focus to the voice of the gravedigger...as if he's some sort of authority on pain, science, emotion, psychology, and religion just because he digs graves at a cemetery.
@lisshumblegenius - I KNOW he did. But that still doesn't make his opinion any more valid than anyone else's. Further, it definitely does NOT make him a scientific expert or give his opinion that anyone who commits suicide goes to Hell any more validity than anything else that came before. Unfortunately, placing that comment so close to the finale of the film and pairing it with the anger of the filmmaker makes it seem as if the filmmaker is doing just that, sadly.
@leighannenoelle I agree with you but I think those people just express their pain that way. Maybe that is why and how they manage to stay healthy (mentally). The guy was speaking with a pain in his voice, a pain and anger. Imagine living everyday and not knowing if you son will be alive tomorrow or not. I just think we need another solution for people that feel suicidal, because when you are depressed you don' think talking will help. You want to see a change!
@rednewt The old man's opinion on the subject has probably been skewed by the fact his son keeps trying to commit suicide. He is probably very angry over that. That's not to say that's the son's fault, either...
@leighannenoelle You're silly. The documentary is to show different perspectives. It isn't that everyone involved in this project holds that opinion. Dumbfuck
if you decide to kill yourself please remembe it takes time for ur brain to shut down and so you feel a few seconds of excrruciating pain that can feel like eternity
@AlienFirefox When I'm in that dark place of PAIN and despair again, I'll try to remember that I may feel more pain in those few seconds...Of course, that depends on the method...Again, pls try to remember that mental illness/depression is often involved and you are NOT THINKING CLEARLY in that moment.
i agree i have been there myself but u need to be strong enough or cowardice enough whciever to overcome it. to be honest i'd rather be a coward and alive and safe than a fuckin hero and worm food
@cedella212 The world can also be wonderful. I look at my children, and I remember that. Then, I start thinking 'But we're all gonna die, so what's the point in living', and I'm in that dark place again... Still, I would die gladly to protect my children, so doesn't that mean I must value life? I certainly value theirs...See how sick and confused we all are...?! Good thing I don't have religion(I'm 'undecided'!) to confuse me even more, or I might be a real basket case...!
It is okay for God to kill, oh I mean take away a life, but I'll be darn if you try to kill yourself. As long as God kills millions of people a day via accidental death or natural causes then it is A-Okay and all right!
Psychologists crack me up? 90% of the people who commit suicide have a psychiatric disorder? Oh, really? Well first of all, tell me please, sir, what persons on earth does not have a pychiatric disorder at all? I see a whole lot of living people with psychological issues. Never met a person who wasn't 100% sane. If sane persons exist then why is the whole world so fucked up? It is fucked up, because most people have mental issues and personality disorders than we want to realize.
I think the reason why so many die from suicide is because people always look at it from a scientific point of view rather than a human point of view.
@TheSeductiveArts Ok maybe I should say a sympathetic point of view. One that's not over analyzed. But everyone has opinions. You sure are on here a lot, is this all you do? just asking.
@VillainsVindication You've suffered with mental illness for most of your life.... people have turned their back on you time and time again. Stigma and misconceptions. Kicked to the curb... "SO BURN IN HELL!!!"
Lady what the fuck are you doing with the hammer and chisel...oh..oh shit that just aint right ..ok that fuck up beyond anything else...DAMN homes..i was going to eat fucking breakfast,but after seeing them take homes brain out of his body....no thanks.
Really strong documentary. If you're looking for a straight-forward point of view this is it. The director made clear at the beginning he has a story to tell, and that's exactly what you will see.
Really weak documentary. If you're looking for a single minded point of view this is it. The director obviously has an opinion to share and that's all you will see.
@blahblahblah3278 I respect ur opinion as u are entitled 2 it but i do not agree with it at all...I felt this documentary was one of the best i have seen on the subject and it touched on all the different angles surrounding suicide
Fuck This Documentary..............almost all parts talkin about how much pain are people around in? about what they do after or how clean up and shit? if they angry with the person who commited suicide, u serious? shouldn't u maybe try to focus on the reason why the people reach for suicide? trying to understand? in the whole documentary there is 1 person talkin about it for real and that's the woman after her attempt, listen to her closely. Try to see people and hear and not judge......Peace
@JynxxTorquilla I agree, though i felt this documentary was an all round view on how suicide affects ppl. Maybe they should have gone deeper in 2 Y ppl reach a point of no return (i have been there 3 times myself & still feel suicidal very often). Worse Part: That guy in the cemetery passing judgement on all who commit suicide, he says they should all go to hell - shows he doesn't understand shit about the subject, also fuck the producer who put that as the last statement made in the video.
@JynxxTorquilla there are 5 normal reactions to a death ,more over a suicide .one of these reactions of grief is anger .have you ever had your home smelling like dead human and gun powder ?i know first hand that if someone wants to do it ,they will undoubtedly do it ,unless they get help.this documentary is one mans attempt to understand why his brother killed himself .please try to be a little open minded .this man is not a doctor ,just someone like you and I.
@trisha69320 Hi, I guess ur right and my natural reaction was a bit harsh so i apologize for bad language, but i still see this documentary as pointed in a completely wrong direction.....certainly without the aim of some understanding. No i never smelled gunpowder in my home yet im pretty sure anger is not the greatest way to cope with death.............or anything else. Peace:)
people who commit suicide would think first of all about those who she/he will leave behind and how these people that love them will miss them so much that maybe life will not have sence and maybe they will be depressed and do that too or live the rest of their lives with your loss, if you really love someone we think about them more then ourselves, imagine a child, wive, sister, friend missing you like the life has no more meaning...
Some People Are So Misguided, It's Such a Shame To Hear Some People's Opinion's Towards Suicide, More Understanding And Prevention Is Needed, Then The People Who Feel Hard Done By And Angry Because a Family Member/Friend Commited Suicide Would See Things Differently, Just My Opinion.
hi guys, girls, i surveived 3 suicide attempts, i carry a scare for life on my risk, last time was 9 years ago! i thank God that i didn't succeed! Im so happy i found a path in life i can walk! hold on, and try to find comfort with the people who love you!
@8656737s Everybody is brought to this world for a reason. Put yourself in your kids position, if you commit suicide how much pain, misery, guilt and sorrow your kids will be feeling. You are wonderful in your own way, think positive and about your future. You are loved like everybody else is. Don't let emotions or bad thoughts get to you. Ask for help, do it for your family and yourself -3 may your soul be blessed for all eternity -3
I could never do this to my kids and I think about suicide all day everyday It's horrible but I love my kids too much I at least want them to be adults when I do it.
cont.. We need to acknowledge the blunt fact that the mind has a finite capacity for tolerating stressors, and when those do become too much, mental suffering is a given. I get so angry that people can be so crass and unempathetic whenever this subject is broached.
"It's selfish" has got to the most retarded conclusion possible - a real mental pygmy of a deduction. It its these detractors FAILURE to EMPATHISE that is responsible for the inherent stigma of the condition, which ironically, CAUSES more suicides beacuse off sufferer's fears of persecution and ostracism. This effectively isolates them and fuels that leads to the tragic outcome. We as a society need to grow and realise that the mind is not infallible and not given or implanted by a sky fairy.
I find it funny that its automatically deemed as a psychological disorder. Have they ever considered being born into a family that never wanted you & every abuse you can think of happened,then stupidly you let this person stay in their life because a stepfather loved your children.everyone knows that abuse victims are prey to marry someone else to abuse them. How about going months on end without a call? No Birthday, No Xmas, no nothing.This,the person who protected them from the monsters.
thats a crock you wont go to hell if you comit suicide show me in the bible were it said your going to hell if you take your own life. im not saying do it theres always a better way they say time heals everything its also what you do with your time that heals faster...
@ThirdEyeBlindftw, True...time does heal all wounds, except some people have this great talent for keeping wounds afresh. They like to pick at their scars on a daily basis where the wound never heals.
Thank you for posting this film. I am a fifty year old man, and my life has changed radically over just the last five years leaving me full of confusion and anger. It is a hard thing to consistantly remember that I am not alone, and that there are answers to problems.
0:23 How do you know what's going through the minds of the deceased young ones??? How do you know they believe that will happen. Blind people like you make me sick and your cold expression does to. You condemn these children with blame. This lady really set me off.
Seeing how this is a mental illness.How can they determine what happening in a person Brain when there dead.I would think the medical people would want to study them while there a live.
i didnt really like this documentary in a away that i have tryed to take my own life
twice and still suffer from depression but you cant be mad at your family or friends if they commit suicide because you dont no how they feel you dont do it to hurt your family you feel as if you are helping them and giving them a better life...
RIP to all who has commited suicide in this documentary to take away that pain.
I just dont understand how the people in this video could say people dont have a right to. Commit suicide I'm very religious, & suicidal it's not something we can help, we try really hard but sometimes were just too weak to hold on any longer, I did it ironic how people who say that must the time have not experienced the pain of depression.
Has really opened my eyes up to suicide... i still can't stop thinking that its very selfish thing to do but im not in there shoes, my heart feels for the familys of these people...
I didn't really like this documentary at all. It's tone is preachy, and there seems to be a focus on "look how bad all these people feel now because one of their relatives killed themselves!" rather than focusing on the people who are depressed. It feels like this documentary's aim is to guilt people out of committing suicide, but in doing so the added guilt is likely to make a depressed person feel worse about their situation than they otherwise would have. Not a very good doc at all, IMO.
@stuffandstuff789 Well, the reason they focus on how their loved ones feel, is because THEY are the ones who have to deal with the actions of the person who decides to commit this SELFISH act. Don't you get it? If you don't, watch it again. Those who commit suicide DIE!!! They don't have to deal with anything. It's those they leave behind who do have to learn how to live and be in the face of terrible pain brought on by another.
@eyeswideopen1993, but don't we face that pain and learn how to cope when people die in general? Doesn't everyone die eventually? I think sometimes humans want to forget that death is a part of life and love ones in your life with eventually die. But we like to pick and choose in what type of death we want our love ones to die from. And the fact is, murder, suicide, accidental death, or natural causes...death is just death in the end.
Suicide HAS to be genetic. My best friend's mother killed herself and maybe 3-4 years later he did the same thing. This documentary actually helped me be more at peace with what happened....but the pain will never stop for me. I feel sorry for everyone who has had to deal with suicide at one point or another. You never really care too much about it until you have to deal with it yourself.
People who think like you are extremely dangerous people EG : "Suicide HAS to be gentic" lol talk about stinking thinkin !! For your information suicide is NOT genetic Its enviromental you imbecile !
@ZEITGEISTism You're just a disrespectful little cunt who has nothing better to do than talk shit on YouTube. Typical really. You know oh so much don't you? I bet you've never had to deal with your best friend killing himself so fuck off you twat. What you say has no credibility and is a waste of time to type so save yourself the trouble of making yourself look even more like an ass. Now, kindly jog off.
When I was 16 my brother went out on an isolated road and stuck a shotgun in his mouth and pulled the trigger. It was not about being selfish, it was about being in so much pain that death was better than life. I have been there myself. I will always respect him for doing it in a place where his family did not have to find him. I believe he is in a better place and I hope he found the peace he needed.

My brother commited suicide 7 years ago. I have thought about it from every angle I know how and the bottom line is it was something he always wanted to do. Not so temporary. The part about the brain physiology shed some light on this and then the ending slammed the door closed.

Instead of telling people that suicide is selfish, maybe you should look at it from their point of view. Have you ever felt the way they have? So hopeless you can't even get up in the morning? Would you tell someone with cancer to just get over it? Move on with life? It's a mental illness, and its not just something you can overcome easily. Fuck therapy, fuck medication. Nothing anyone can do can make a person with real psychological problems better.

The people in this movie keep accusing the ones who killed themselves of being selfish. How about you yourself stop being selfish for a second and think about the horrific pain and emotional pressure your loved one has to have been going through to come to this point? If it was the right thing for them to do, let them go. It's not their job to exist for you.

@Contraproductive How about you think of the emotional scarring of people who find you and the people you leave behind when you take your own life. Reach out for help, don't let it build. It IS selfish.
lisshumblegenius 2 days ago
@lisshumblegenius How bout you think about the physical exhaustion and emotional pain of the victim before they committed suicide? I hate that people say it's selfish. You know what's selfish? The fact that people completely forget about all of the mental anguish the person had to go through to actually get to that point in their life. Yes people should get help but not everyone has help available to them. Not everyone is lucky enough to have a support system.

@M1STAY I totally agree. I really think suicide is, in a way, a selfish act and most of the people who commit suicide don't realize how much they hurt their friends and family... but those people have really suffered to come down to this option... at a point where they just want to stop living to make the pain go away, that doesn't mean they should burn in hell for their act, they just needed help...

We should not be angry with people that suffer from illness and end up committing suicide, doing that is really what's selfish. If we truly want to help others, we need to be compassionate and try to understand their feelings...

You are wrong there is nobody who wanna die unless they have a terrible painful sickness. Suicide is all about pain no matter how old you are. The pain is most times of mental character. But you can be very sick on a physical level fex. cancer that can give you unbelievable pain, even that much pain that not even morphine can relieve it.

I agree that it was a horrible ending to this documentary. I have been suicidal myself. More than once. I suffer mental illness. I have O.C.D and Bipolar II Disorder. I have had severe depression and post-natal depression. I once lost 17 kilos in six weeks from walking the floor with anxiety. I ended up in a mental health program for 8 months after that... I have been on medication for 14 years. I guess my OCD has actually stopped me from killing myself, because I'm terrified of dying!

@Trulore1 I watched my Father die of Cancer, and he wanted to live so badly...I have HUGE issues over his death/watching him die/knowing he never did understand me. As a child, I was so terrified that one day, people would realize there was something wrong with me and cart me away to a mental hospital or something, so I hid a lot of my self-destructive thoughts. I overdosed at 17, ending up in hospital, but my parents chose to ignore it, seeing it as attention seeking, which I suppose it was..

@Trulore1 I actually have a supposedly high IQ, which is great, but has never really helped me much. Sadly, a lot of people who suffer from depressive illnesses, seem to have quite high IQ's. High IQ's often seem to go hand in hand with imaginative, emotional human beings. I've been published with poetry and short stories...But, when you are in that place, at that time, everything is so dark. You don't think about anything else except that feeling of hopelessness...

@Trulore1 Medication has helped to improve my life. I have a loving Husband of 13 years and 4 beautiful children. I try my best to not let my children be affected by my problems, and when symptomatic, I usually have a warning before things get bad, and I remove myself from being around my kids. I don't want my fears to impact on them. And I do know they need me. They will only ever have one mother, and no one will ever love them more than I do, and that is to Infinity And Beyond..

@Trulore1 People who also suffer depression &/or mental illness, in your well moments, at least stop to think then. Try to seek help before it's too late. Medical intervention can help and is worth a try. I have counseling, and it often does help to talk to someone who won't judge. Choose your professional carefully. And if you decide to end your life, discuss it with SOMEONE you love FIRST. Do it AWAY from home. Leave letters to your family so they know they weren't to blame.

@LonerlovezL I think they kind of skewed the brother's comments to suit themselves. I'm sure they feel a mix of sorrow/anger/guilt/loss/love for their brother. I know I would be feeling all those things... I think the producers were probably selective in the footage they showed, because they are trying so hard to get through to people that are considering suicide as an answer...

I hate the saying: "Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem" which they used earlier in the documentary. I am one of those mentally ill people. I suffer from depression and G.A.D. (neither of which are rare, by the way). These are things I will have to deal with for the rest of my life! Its not temporary! *Not that I'm suicidal, just pointing this annoyance out
LonerlovezL 3 weeks ago 28
@LonerlovezL I haven't finished watching this whole thing and I agree with you. I was diagnosed with clinical depression when I was 13 and I am now 22. I still have it and therapy and medication have not helped me. It's not a temporary problem at all, FOR SOME. I think what they are trying to get at however, is that certain problems, like losing your job or your girlfriend IS temporary and you will get over it, but mental "illnesses" and "disorders" NEVER go away. They don't say that.

one last cigarette and went to sleep without the breathalyzer.. and passed away over night, knowing he would not wake up the next day. I find to do something like that takes a lot of guts, but I also understand his reasons for doing that. If you knew someone who was suffering from something that could never be cured and wanted to be let go.. would you allow them to go to relieve them from the pain? As to why suicide is a tricky subject.
VenusAdept 3 weeks ago
@VenusAdept I believe in voluntary Euthanasia. I watched my Father die of Cancer. But someone choosing to end their life due to incurable illness/disease is a different subject to the stories described here. I have been suicidal at times due to mental illness/depression. At those times, I could see no light in a dark, dark place. But when I recovered from those times, I could see that I had reasons for being here. If we can urge ONE person who is in that place, to seek help...

suicide, it depends on the circumstances. Like.. I've felt many degrees of main so I know the want to want it to end. And I did want it to end.. but I decided to fight through nonetheless. But in cases where people are ill.. like my fiance's uncle for example.. he was diagnosed with lung cancer at a stage, a late stage.. to the point where he couldn't breathe without a machine. His father, my fiance's grandfather, was that way before he died. The uncle didn't want a similar fate, so he (cont.)

My teenage years were the worst.. but now that I'm a grown woman, it has gotten a lot better. Ever since after college. But yeah.. I'm for and against (cont.)

This was terrible. I feel like this documentary "villanizes" people who deal with depression and find there way to suicide. I understand wanting to see suicide for the survivors. It's important. But telling a mother that her son is a selfish, arrogant, self centered, short sighted and horrible person for killing himself does more damage than helping her to understand why he may have done this and why this isn't her fault. IMO.

That grave digger was an ignorant prick saying people who commit suicide should go to hell.

There did seem to be a lot of blame floating around in this doco, but at least it's bringing attention to an issue that seems to get worse every decade

Thank you for producing and posting this documentary. It was enlightening to see the topic spoken about from so many different perspectives, with the final, scientific/medical one offering a small glimpse of hope for the future. I hope this endeavour has, in some small way at least, helped you and your brother to deal with the pain of your loss. Remember though, that even remembering your brother in anger is, in a way, honouring his memory because you are not forgetting him.

"...not aware of how much these peole hurt as well. Drowning in guilt. No understandable possiblity of suicide. It's a new dimension of unbearable pain because even though I am alive, I don't stay true to the people I love because I can't build an honest life with them."

@leighannenoelle I agree. I really feel like they missed the point. I don't know what the brothers' relationships were like with each other, it's obvious that they feel negatively towards his death for whatever reason, but I really don't think it was a good way to generalise suicidal people in a somewhat negative, subjective way. It shows a complete like of empathy and understanding and makes for quite a dry documentary. It lacked a message failed to really explain anything.

The filmmakers did such a good job of establishing many scientific facts about suicide, the correlation to mental illness, and the studied and learned motives behind the act of suicide, then they do a 180 and choose to end the film with one of the most UN-scientific voices giving one of the most biased outcries against suicide. What a letdown.

Fuck This Documentary..............almost all parts talkin about how much pain are people around in? about what they do after or how clean up and shit? if they angry with the person who commited suicide, u serious? shouldn't u maybe try to focus on the reason why the people reach for suicide? trying to understand? in the whole documentary there is 1 person talkin about it for real and that's the woman after her attempt, listen to her closely. Try to see people and hear and not judge......Peace

@JynxxTorquilla I agree, though i felt this documentary was an all round view on how suicide affects ppl. Maybe they should have gone deeper in 2 Y ppl reach a point of no return (i have been there 3 times myself & still feel suicidal very often). Worse Part: That guy in the cemetery passing judgement on all who commit suicide, he says they should all go to hell - shows he doesn't understand shit about the subject, also fuck the producer who put that as the last statement made in the video.

@JynxxTorquilla there are 5 normal reactions to a death ,more over a suicide .one of these reactions of grief is anger .have you ever had your home smelling like dead human and gun powder ?i know first hand that if someone wants to do it ,they will undoubtedly do it ,unless they get help.this documentary is one mans attempt to understand why his brother killed himself .please try to be a little open minded .this man is not a doctor ,just someone like you and I.

@trisha69320 Hi, I guess ur right and my natural reaction was a bit harsh so i apologize for bad language, but i still see this documentary as pointed in a completely wrong direction.....certainly without the aim of some understanding. No i never smelled gunpowder in my home yet im pretty sure anger is not the greatest way to cope with death.............or anything else. Peace:)

people who commit suicide would think first of all about those who she/he will leave behind and how these people that love them will miss them so much that maybe life will not have sence and maybe they will be depressed and do that too or live the rest of their lives with your loss, if you really love someone we think about them more then ourselves, imagine a child, wive, sister, friend missing you like the life has no more meaning...

Some People Are So Misguided, It's Such a Shame To Hear Some People's Opinion's Towards Suicide, More Understanding And Prevention Is Needed, Then The People Who Feel Hard Done By And Angry Because a Family Member/Friend Commited Suicide Would See Things Differently, Just My Opinion.

@8656737s Everybody is brought to this world for a reason. Put yourself in your kids position, if you commit suicide how much pain, misery, guilt and sorrow your kids will be feeling. You are wonderful in your own way, think positive and about your future. You are loved like everybody else is. Don't let emotions or bad thoughts get to you. Ask for help, do it for your family and yourself -3 may your soul be blessed for all eternity -3

I could never do this to my kids and I think about suicide all day everyday It's horrible but I love my kids too much I at least want them to be adults when I do it.

cont.. We need to acknowledge the blunt fact that the mind has a finite capacity for tolerating stressors, and when those do become too much, mental suffering is a given. I get so angry that people can be so crass and unempathetic whenever this subject is broached.

"It's selfish" has got to the most retarded conclusion possible - a real mental pygmy of a deduction. It its these detractors FAILURE to EMPATHISE that is responsible for the inherent stigma of the condition, which ironically, CAUSES more suicides beacuse off sufferer's fears of persecution and ostracism. This effectively isolates them and fuels that leads to the tragic outcome. We as a society need to grow and realise that the mind is not infallible and not given or implanted by a sky fairy.

I find it funny that its automatically deemed as a psychological disorder. Have they ever considered being born into a family that never wanted you & every abuse you can think of happened,then stupidly you let this person stay in their life because a stepfather loved your children.everyone knows that abuse victims are prey to marry someone else to abuse them. How about going months on end without a call? No Birthday, No Xmas, no nothing.This,the person who protected them from the monsters.

@SweetK1ssez I would never associate with someone who thinks suicide is selfish. It shows me they are bordering on Sociopathy and not to be trusted.

@ThirdEyeBlindftw, True...time does heal all wounds, except some people have this great talent for keeping wounds afresh. They like to pick at their scars on a daily basis where the wound never heals.

Thank you for posting this film. I am a fifty year old man, and my life has changed radically over just the last five years leaving me full of confusion and anger. It is a hard thing to consistantly remember that I am not alone, and that there are answers to problems.

Very good documentary! Suicide is no answer for anything. Call someone first and talk! Things can get better, but first you must ask for help.

0:23 How do you know what's going through the minds of the deceased young ones??? How do you know they believe that will happen. Blind people like you make me sick and your cold expression does to. You condemn these children with blame. This lady really set me off.

I just dont understand how the people in this video could say people dont have a right to. Commit suicide I'm very religious, & suicidal it's not something we can help, we try really hard but sometimes were just too weak to hold on any longer, I did it ironic how people who say that must the time have not experienced the pain of depression.

I didn't really like this documentary at all. It's tone is preachy, and there seems to be a focus on "look how bad all these people feel now because one of their relatives killed themselves!" rather than focusing on the people who are depressed. It feels like this documentary's aim is to guilt people out of committing suicide, but in doing so the added guilt is likely to make a depressed person feel worse about their situation than they otherwise would have. Not a very good doc at all, IMO.
stuffandstuff789 2 months ago 16
@stuffandstuff789 Well, the reason they focus on how their loved ones feel, is because THEY are the ones who have to deal with the actions of the person who decides to commit this SELFISH act. Don't you get it? If you don't, watch it again. Those who commit suicide DIE!!! They don't have to deal with anything. It's those they leave behind who do have to learn how to live and be in the face of terrible pain brought on by another.
eyeswideopen1993 1 month ago
@eyeswideopen1993, but don't we face that pain and learn how to cope when people die in general? Doesn't everyone die eventually? I think sometimes humans want to forget that death is a part of life and love ones in your life with eventually die. But we like to pick and choose in what type of death we want our love ones to die from. And the fact is, murder, suicide, accidental death, or natural causes...death is just death in the end.

Suicide HAS to be genetic. My best friend's mother killed herself and maybe 3-4 years later he did the same thing. This documentary actually helped me be more at peace with what happened....but the pain will never stop for me. I feel sorry for everyone who has had to deal with suicide at one point or another. You never really care too much about it until you have to deal with it yourself.
