Why Suicidal People Don’t Ask for Help

People who have made plans to commit suicide don’t ask for help. There’s no reason to seek help. You don’t want help – you want to disappear. When you’re suicidal, asking for help allows others to coax you back into living with the pain you’ve finally found an escape from.

Only people who are undecided ask for help. Asking for help means you’re asking to go back to the lie that life will somehow get better. But life doesn’t get better. Life is complicated chaos – futile no matter how good it gets.

Even if all wishes were granted, lasting happiness is a distant dream and suicide is the only rational choice. That’s how life occurs when you’ve realized the impermanence of everything and don’t feel like enduring the bad just to experience the good.
