“I’ve given up already in life but something or someone keep pushing me to keep going.”
― Jonathan Anthony Burkett

“I personally don't think about jumping because things can't possibly get worse... To the contrary, I contemplate it because I believe things probably will.”
― Tyler Knight, Burn My Shadow

“People think that those who commit suicide are against life—they are not. They are too lusty for life, they have great lust for life; and because life is not fulfilling their lust, in anger, in despair, they destroy themselves.”

“Love, success, and friendship are not always enough to counter the pain and destructiveness of severe mental illness. American artist Ralph Barton tried to explain this in his suicide note:

'Everyone who has known me and who hears of this will have a different hypothesis to offer to explain why I did it. Practically all of these hypotheses will be dramatic—and completely wrong. Any sane doctor knows that the reasons for suicide are invariably psychopathological. Difficulties in life merely precipitate the event—and the true suicide type manufactures his own difficulties.”
