Aftermath: The Legacy of Suicide

5 stars based on 60 reviews

Filmmaker Lisa Fitzgibbons grew up with the uneasy feeling that things were not as they seemed. Then she finally learned that her father had committed suicide.

Surprised to discover that she is not alone, she reaches out to other survivors and meets two people who also lost their fathers to suicide at an early age.

Robert describes the 30 long years it took to force the truth into the open. Anne-Marie still regrets her refusal as a child to kiss her father goodbye before leaving for school that last morning. We listen to their stories, presented simply and compassionately against a background of poetic images. In speaking of their experiences, buried emotions resurface. Hope is reborn as all three come to terms bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies their fathers' death - and with their own lives.

Suicide is so very often the most selfish act anyone can commit. While millions dredge on amidst their problems, those few who decide suicide is the answer only succeed in compounding the difficulties and suffering of those close to them. Bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies used to see it as a selfish act. I believe I was trying to talk to anyone else who may be considering it.

The negative ripple effects of a suicide can be very long lasting and reach many people. However, I see it now as an act of desperation. This is why professional help is needed. Our thoughts only look for quick fix and doesn't care about the long term consequences. Those considering suicide need to get help. Not just in dealing with the depression but bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies changing the direction of the negative 'thought' processes.

As someone who has mulled over the thought of suicide many-a-times, I've come to understand that a person's stance on the subject really depends on their view of how life is supposed to play bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies. If you honestly believe that this life is all that you're going to get and after you're dead, you are DEAD, then you'll most likely see suicide as a bad thing.

On the other hand, if you subscribe to the idea that life is a transitory system like smoke or foam on the water, you'll probably not be so inclined to view suicide in a negative light. After all, the only experience, or the only sort of experience I believe you go through after you die is the same experience as first waking up. Going to sleep and never waking up death is the just the flip side of waking up having never gone to sleep birth.

They follow each other. In that sense, you can't really commit suicide in any meaningful way. You just can't escape life and enjoy dark nothingness because that's not an experience, nature abhors a vacuum. That being said, if anyone wants to commit suicide, I personally see no reason to stop them, they are perfectly within their own right to decide when its time to check out. Its sad if they're young and never really gave life a chance, but they'll be back and as far as I'm concerned, if you've sat half-way through the movie and the first half sucked, odds are its not going to improve in the second half and there's no problem in bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies the theater and going to a new one.

It is a personal conviction that my life is going to end when I, not anyone else, am damn well ready for it to be over. Think about how good of bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies arrangement it all really is. You go through a life, enjoy all the wonders, then die. As a person who learn 3 years ago about real reasons behind so called "illness" of my grandmother and then her death 15 years after she got "ill" 27 years after her death, being in my 40s, I can relate what people in this movie went through in their life, even though reason my grandmother died was not a suicide Actually what happened to her from the beginning to end was not her doing - she didn't do it to herself Well maybe my granfather did, but I not sure But still I also was told that I imagining things and there was a secrecy Learning the truth about what happened helped me to understand lots of things and I believe things like that shouldn't be kept in secret as it is important to understand for younger generations about what happened to their family members.

Life Is a Challenge So Livit. Where are These Storys.?? Having a reason To Live. But Now she does. Where are these Storys.

My father commited suicide in My son commited suicide in Now i have no past and no future. About five years ago a woman jumped of a bridge in front of me. I realised she was going to jump when she hopped down onto a ledge, I held out bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies hand and said 'stay with us' three or four times, she was looking down.

Then she look over to me, her face was full of serenity her eyes shining like a masters, she turned, looked down and jumped. It was pretty surreal. But its a moment in my life I treasure. About seven years ago a woman jumped of a bridge in front of me.

I realised she might jump when she hop down onto a ledge, it happened pretty quickly. I bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies out my hand to her bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies said 'stay with us'. She looked over at me, her face looked so serene her gaze gentle, then she looked away and jumped. It was surreal and intense. But its and moment I treasure.

My father killed himself when I was 6 yrs old. All my life I have wondered why I wasn't worth living for. In my relationships, I have held on tighter to people and done whatever I could to make them happy, even if that meant giving up what made me happy or what I wanted. I am now 37 yrs old.

I have 2 sons and everyday I look at them and think there is nothing in this world that could ever make me choose to leave them. My father committed suicide when I was 4, and my older brother was 6. We were told how he 'died' 3 years later, by our abusive stepfather. Needless to say, the effects last a lifetime, and they are not positive. Self bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies issues, the need to please, to excel, yet sabotage every success. I have often considered it myself, yet I am still here.

Depression is not bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies weakness, but a debilitating dis-ease that is still misunderstood by society, and now exploited by the pharmaceutical industry. Highly sensitive people, those who see life a little differently than the masses are high risk for this affliction.

Sometimes it can be sublimated through art and other creative expression, but often the bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies of being "odd" in a practically insane society, bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies a strong hold. All I can say, is we're bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies good company.

Some of the most creative, provocative and talented people suffer from depression. I just hope we all stick around to keep remembering the beauty that we're capable of recognising and creating, and not letting the Black Dogs take us down for good.

The only reason I do not commit suicide is that my parents still are alive. The natural way of things is that the children are supposed to burry their parents, not vice versa. When someone dies, one changes their form of existence. Nature recycles spirit and matter. It is not about sleep-and-wake-up cycle, it is about the transformation of forms of existence. I've often thought about suicide in my darker moments and I have to disagree with what you're saying.

I am not a believer in anything after death save my body being eaten by worms ect To me, I would wake up bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies the morning: To me, death was a release and there didn't need to be an encore. Existence itself seemed exhausting and bothersome.

Suicide, especially in a depressed person's mind, bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies be processed rationally like you've described above, it's a thoroughly chaotic, emotional experience and often logic has no bearing on bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies, depending on how depressed you get. These days, if I get a recurrence of something like that, I try and remind myself that depression is a sickness and that a healthy mind wouldn't jump to suicide as the always available option c.

But the few times I've experienced the true tunnel vision that is depression, I also know that it can creep up on me and blind all rationale. You are a wise, tolerant soul.

I appreciate your comments here. I don't live for what comes after death, if that's what you're wondering. I think there is reason; I think trying to be the best human being you can be while you are here is ample reason to be alive. I understand exactly how you feel and are thinking. The keyword here being sabotage.

I lost my father when I bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies 19 to suicide. My mother had bouts of suicidal behavior. I started digging and found history, films, a lack of edcuation, and poor thinking habits at the root of their problems, television being the biggest problem in affecting their behavior.

Knowing why he did what he did has been invaluable to helping me stop my own acting out of their habits. Wallowing in self pity kept bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies stuck in a rut, but there was a pay off.

It got me attention, help, not that it wasn't necessary, it was but I needed to learn to think for myself about what was happening to me and my family. Some people often exploit the depressed suicidal person.

Much creativity has been born of the depressed personality, climbing his way from his obscure hell into success and popularity. Bitcoin documentario suicidal tendencies don't much care what happens to the object of their exploitation.

The Aokigahara Forest is a lonely place to die. So dense is the vegetation at the foot of Japan's Mount Fuji, it is all too easy to disappear among the evergreens and never be seen again.

Each year the authorities remove as many as bodies found hanging at the country's suicide hotspot - but others can lie undiscovered for years. After the novel Kuroi Jukai was published, in which a young lover commits suicide in the forest, people started taking their own lives there at a rate of 50 to deaths a year.

The site holds so many bodies that the Yakuza pays homeless people to sneak into the forest and rob the corpses. The authorities sweep for bodies only on an annual basis, as the forest sits at the base of Mt. Fuji and is too dense to patrol more frequently.

This program contains content matter which some viewers may find disturbing. This is so sad, yet such a reality of our dualistic world, you can find great joy and great sadness.

The middle way is where true happiness is. Short and to the point. It struck me as a weird way for a geologist to make a living. I agree with dmxi, I'm glad I haven't found my personal limit. It's sad for people that have. Kind of wierd but worth watching. What a beautiful place, it would seem harder to kill yourself surrounded by such awe inspiring scenery. It must be something cultural that has inspired this phenomenon, thats my best guess any way.

Strange and beautiful and sad. Had to watch through my lashes so as not to see things I didn't want to. Nothing horrible, just lonely and disquieting like a lukewarm bath in a quiet room. It definitely seems he is a very brave and objective man. I sure don't think I could do it. I think the despair would rub off on me very quickly.

A haunted forest; a Japanese Mirkwood When he says he wonders why they would choose to kill themselves in a place like this, I honestly think that might be close to the point some of them were trying to make.

But you really knew that, I guess? It's a haiku, so it seemed appropriate Sad, for sure, but what a sense of drama they've got, imo. You had me fooled ; Drama in spades, beats Beachy Head any day. Really can't understand why anyone would choose that method though, why not od on smack?

I suspect it may be a cultural thing, like Wald0 says. Like heaving a bucket of pig guts into the order of a Japanese garden, who knows? And they probably have enough of the other methods, as well, anyway. IS it the highest now? I would've thought Norway or Sweden, but that may have changed if it was ever correct.

They also never had any cultural prohibitions against it stemming from a Christian heritage, obviously, but that's staying the hand of people even in the West less and less Did you ever see that doc here about Terry Pratchett?

It's called 'Terry Pratchett: Choosing to Die,' on page 9 of the Society section. Most of us can't help caring about one another, which is one of the best things about the planet and why suicide can be such a hard subject, I guess. We're social animals and most of us fear death to one degree or another, two facts that might incidentally "explain" a whole lot of human history, with the rest only being "commentary," lol.

I don't know if the choice of locations is cultural or not. Japan hasn't many wild areas to escape from societal pressures.

I think that travelling to such a natural, beautiful place would be key to attempting to connect to the rhythym and flow of life. For many, the peace would be healing, and they would go back to society with a new outlook. For some, it would probably feel like a good place to discard a painful life and rejoin the universal life stream. One of the most beautiful places on earth. I would call it ironic that so many would choose to die there but, being from Oklahoma, I can't say that there is a better place to end one's life.

After all, what do you hope to see on that final day if not absolute beauty? Yes, its the culture. Of course it is. Still, I get it. On those days when I find it hard to get out of bed, I look at the absolute hell about me relatively speaking and say, "No, this isn't the place.

In times of great turmoil such as depression, sickness, the loss of a loved one, many people are tempted to kill themself but most stay alive because they don't want to be found by their kids, family, friends.

The thought of dying in a forest, away from anyone, may make this choice easier. A old friend of mine has said many times, if i ever get real sick, i'll walk up the woods behind my house and dissapear in the mountains. Behind his house there are miles of nothing but mountains, grizzly bears, cougars, ect Death is a forsure The notion that it wasn't was propaganda put out by the emperor of the time to inspire the kamikaze pilots of the second world war. I am led to believe that Knights in Europe were much more likely to fall on their own swords out of some honor dispute or another And even then it was an incredibly rare occurrence.

I think the Romans probably had a bigger culture of honour suicide than both the others mentioned put together. However, as with everything i say it might be complete bullsh1t, so research for yourself before you take my word for it. I don't know about hanging though , if I was ever in that frame of mind and hopefully won't be , I think I'd go for something nice and relaxing washed down with a bottle of Powers Whiskey. I'd probably feel better after a coupla shots though, lol.

I was thinking about this last night, it is a beautiful place but underneath that beauty is the knowledge that you're following in the footsteps of a hundred other dead guys. Surely that must skew your decision once you arrive, doesn't seem as if many leave on their own to feet. Also wondered what might happen if one bod with suicide in mind came across another. Would they look away and hurry past? Maybe they'd tip their caps and smile, 'lovely day for it' I don't know, but it takes away some of the beauty of the place.

When you go where people have died, battlefields, knowing it taints the thoughts you have. Could it feel worse knowing they did it to themselves rather than each other? Wondered if that might be a part of the reason the geologist felt so involved. You could look at it that that way dewy but the "nature guard" said something I liked too.

He was talking about life , but its true in death too. There can't be many places where somebody hasn't died , so the dead are all around us. In the midst of life , Death.

Hey Irish, that's true, but we don't expect to find our dead hanging from trees, not so many in one place anyway. If he finds about a hundred a year, think how many he must miss. I guess some people must feel lonely even when they're not alone. Where's Epic and his psychology when you need him? Some places seem to draw people like this, have you watched The Bridge?

Wonder how long it takes to die, they are amateurs after all, long enough to change your mind? Maybe some of then inch up on it, keep getting closer to see how close they can get. Close enough might be too far for some. He did mention in the film that they used to take the old folk and ditch them on the mountain when they couldn't afford to keep them.

In its own brutal way it makes sense I suppose, they've lived long enough to be of any use. A less awful story than Hansel and Gretel. The rest of the link mentioned that people are not that into graveyard burials any more. Partied like there was no tomorrow and woke up with a hangover that made me wish there wasn't: Still a bit messy though ;. Since I was a kid, if things were bothering me, I would take a walk in the woods.

I grew up on a farm and it was right there on my doorstep. It wouldn't take long and the worries would seem to just fall away like an old suit. It doesn't seem possible that I could go to the place in this doc and still feel suicidal when the beauty of this spot would almost certainly have the same affect on me. I'd probably forget why I went there in the first place.

Short attention span, maybe. The only scenario that I could see that I could do this would be one similar to Az's friend. A terrible sickness may find a determination that would not be there normally.
