Suicide: Some have said that suicide is a permanent solution for a temporary problem. It's very sad to end a life before its time. Illnesses like depression, substance abuse, schizophrenia, ptsd, and also certain personality disorders such as borderline can produce severe changes in thinking, emotions, and behavior. When very ill, these people focus on the pain rather than the possibilities in life.
