Why is suicide so bad

Before this debate begins, I feel strongly that I should explain why I believe that suicide should be (mostly) normalized

- when people die, they escape earth, and won’t have to deal with external suffering from the earth, so essentially their problems go away
- if someone is suicidal, that means that there is something deeply wrong in their lives. It doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with them. If someone is having suicidal thoughts, that means that they are dealing with serious internal and external problems. If we want people to not kill themselves, we need to take those problems away and show (SHOW, not tell) them why we want them to live.
- sometimes, there isnt hope for people. Sometimes, things don’t change for people, and the only true way for suffering to end is suicide. This isn’t the case with all human beings, some of them genuinely find hope after a storm, but not everyone does. This is what we need suicide for.

These are the main reasons I (mostly) support suicide, but there are times where I believe it isnt ok to kill yourself:
- choosing to do it over extremely minuscule things, like losing a game or not being able to complete a task
- being told to/blackmailed into killing yourself
- killing yourself to manipulate someone else (“if you don’t do [this] I will kill myself”)
- other things I can’t think of rn but will mention later as the debate goes on when my mind is less cloudy

SUICIDE AND SELF HARM ARE NOT THE SAME THING
