I'm In The Tub, Gone (Book) - 12/17/2007 3:13:22 PM
Richard:years ago I heard of a book or maybe it was a movie call "don't say suicide" it was well done but yet it leaves one to think how bad it is when some one choose to end there life. since I have choosen The Lord Jesus Christ I never have to think of ending my life by suicide I don't think that it would be good to have people think of my last thoughts of me in this way or meeting my reedmer wondering why I had taken my own life to soon... what a sad sight that would be and not a very good one on one soul...

You have written about a subject that has fascinated many down through the years, not the act of suicide but the mindset fuelling the determination or desire to take one's life. I worked with men with mild to severe social and behavioural problems, and not a few pondered or committed suicide. One guy outwardly gave the impression that what it was that troubled him was merely an iritant. Two days later he was found floating face down in the river. Transpires that his divorce had robbed him of everything that he ever cherished: his wife, children, home, social status etc (a not uncommon experience for divorced men), and he could not cope anymore. Nearer to home, my Father attempted suicide. He simply never let anyone near enough for them to detect the signs. Even after the event, he kept us out of this cerebral part of his life right to the day he died naturally (but still troubled inside).
My university work finishes for this year in October. I usually set myself a reading list. This book will be added.
