Please explain why people say, suicide is not the answer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most people's: Problems can be worked through. If they are depressed it can be treated. If they have addictions they can work toward sobriety. There is hope. Unfortunately people who have the desire to kill themself often get tunnel vision & other options just aren't apparent to them. Suicide is a very permanent solution to problems that often can be resolved.
