If someone got enough energy in your brain to restart it agian, whouldn;t that bring you back? idn i just wonderin? but i guess people have tried to stab or shoot themselfves but just have hit a brainspot that isnt as useful, or have stabed the wrong side of their chest. and failed at suicide
-
Failed @ suicide? happy or sad bout it?
-
If they come back, THEYRE NOT DEADIs it that hard to understand?If they wake up again it is not called dead. Dead means you do NOT wake up or come back. Ever.
-
Precisely.
-
Hypothetically speaking, what if we were able to bring back a dead person (dead for a significant amount of time, as in after funeral, etc.). Then technically, they wouldn't have died because they didn't stay dead, but that's kind of strange considering the circumstances. Kind of a weird case since we can't currently do this and the body begins to deteriorate soon after death, but if it were possible then that definition of death would no longer apply.
-
That can only happen in Frankenstein movies. Once the brain is destroyed by lack of oxygen, what is there to bring back to life? It would be like heating your computer's hard disk to 50,000 degrees, vaporizing all of the matter that it comprises, and then talking about the possibility of bringing back the files that were stored on the disk.
Are you talking about putting a person in the deep freeze until we can find a way to fix what caused what would have been irreversible death with today's technology? That doesn't really count, because the person was not quite dead when he was frozen. Once all brain activity ceases, I'm not sure that there's a way to kick-start it up again.

yea I've tried, and I've been trying since i was 8, now im 18, i still havnt made it there yet.. but still trying.
-
yes i attempted it twice. i was sad at the time that i failed but i now i have to wonderful girls and would never miss that for the world. they are all that keeps me alive now.i have been down so low sometimes that i wish i was dead for good. but then i look at my kids pictures and know its the wrong thing to do . it wouldn't be me being sad thats to much of a burden to ever place on my kids.
-
Why do you still try, if you havnt suceeded yet dont u think maybe your not sapose to be dead? @ smotin
-
i havent tried committing suicide. came very very close once though. didnt have enough tablets so i figured it wasnt worth trying cos i really didnt want to come back. still wish id broken into the corner shop to get more tablets and done the job
-
I have never fully understood when people claim they try all of the time. In terms of actually dying, it's not hard to kill yourself. There's an abundance of chemicals and other things in most homes that would do the job just fine when nobody else is around.
-
I think about doing it all the time but the reality is I'm too much of a pussy to actually end my own life, but I don't care if I live or die. I drive reckless and smoke and drink because life has no real joy to it and if I died no one would notice I was gone anyways. Once a long time ago I sat in my car in the garage trying to asphyxiate myself, I knew I wasn't going to do it, just wanted to see how far I'd go before I cut off the ignition and opened the garage door. My dad ended up opening the door to the garage, it wasn't even smoky but he saw what I was doing and yelled at me and called me a fucking idiot saying the carbon monoxide would have drifted in the house and killed everyone else and even though he didn't give a fuck about my life he didn't want me to gas the rest of the family. If I do it I'm not going out like a bitch with pills or putting a bag over my head. I'm going to kill myself in some horrendous fashion that will draw national attention, that way I can at least not be invisible in death like I am in life. Like the kid who crashed his Cessna into some skyscraper in Miami because his Acne medication made him suicidal, that was badass.

I think your dad may have been coming from the point of view that many people do. When you find someone trying to commit suicide or they tell you they are gonna do it or have tried, instead of asking whats wrong and being all nice and heart filled (which would piss me off if I got that kinda talk) you focus on telling them how selfish they are for doing it. Basically its an attempt to guilt them out of it. I've done it to one of my friends and it worked. Although I can't be too sure if he would have gone through with it anyway.
-
No he actually doesn't care. He considered taking life insurance out on me so I would be worth something when I killed myself but was disappointed when he found out suicides are not covered by any policy. I don't blame him, if I was my son I'd want myself dead too. I would have just came into my room when I was a baby and smothered myself with a pillow.
-
Well, I'm sure ya probably weren't too bad as a baby.And there is no life insurance for suicides? Hmm, I was surprised at first but now that I think about it, it actually makes sense.
-
Care to give some examples if it's so easy
-
Your father sounds like he's not worthy of the title, white_lines.
-
He's not a bad person he just thinks I'm inconvienent.
-
Well, by failing it could mean a few things. They tried but couldn't bring themselves to do it, they got stopped by someone else or even the method that they tried just didn't work. You'd be surprised how some of those dangerous chemicals can have little effect on the body sometimes. Not to mention wrist cutting, that is a commonly failed method cause people just keep doing it wrong.
-
Having children is always inconvenient. Parents should expect that and, having made their decision, accept the inconvenience cheerfully.
-
I don't get why people always defend their parents when they treat them horribly... are you guys fucking idiots (not meant directly to whtie_lines, but I guess he's included in that group) ?
