The act of ending one's own life. It's not for attention - for if you're dead it's negated anyway, it's not cowardly or selfish. Only those who assume it is are cowardly and selfish.
It's done because you're depressed.
Depression is a disease, like cancer or diabetes. You don't ostracise or vilify someone for having cancer or diabetes, right? How's this any different? If someone got a disease from their own lifestyle you'd still not yell at them for it because they're suffering enough.
Or if someone got a less serious illness like a cold or something and the day before they went outside in the cold without a jacket you'd still not yell at them. A "You should wear a jacket next time" at most. Something constructive, not destructive.
And you wouldn't yell at someone for not telling you why they're sick, because they don't always know, and yelling at them makes it worse, for them and for you. It's backwards logic that if you want someone to open up to you, that you yell at them about not opening up or talking to them.
A few reasons why someone may want to do so are: stress, drama, overwhelmed, the loss of life, bullying, things going awry, people making you feel worse, places, actions, moods, thinking it is easier, moods, wanting to "restart," the past, or the future.
These are all reasons. None are invalid, they are just tragic as reasons. If you or someone you know is depressed/suicidal, and you don't have a recognisable reason, it makes no difference on how bad it is.

You're not an idiot, you can plug in your own example. But as for a final reiteration, don't ostracise or vilify someone who tried to commit suicide, or someone who is depressed. A few years ago my mom asked in the car why I tried to kill myself, and I said I didn't know, and she got mad and started beating her steering wheel because I wouldn't give her an answer. That was years ago and I still remember it. I remember how scared I was, and how I swore to myself to never open up to her as much as I used to. Her and I have a strained relationship now.
Years later, I attempted again, and she said it was for attention and to join a bandwagon. It wasn't. She is a horrible person who grossly misunderstands mental health, please don't be like her.

Get the Suicide mug.I feel like this is misunderstood. Now, here me out. I'm sure we all know that one "attention seeker" in our lives, whether it be online or at school, or even in your own friend group. It may even be you who you think of when it comes to mind.
Let's look at this at the most basic and fundamental level - why do people attention seek? Well, to seek attention, of course. But why? Could it be because they don't get enough attention at home, or good attention? Could it be because they feel like no one cares about them, and so they do things to themselves to have a sense that someone cares? They aren't doing it to worry you, they're doing it to feel important.
Of course there are some exceptions to this, like causing drama amongst people or cause them to fight - they don't deserve sympathy, but if what they're doing affects them primarily, think twice before you judge so harshly. After all, they just want someone to care about them, is that really so bad?

Hi. In middle school, I used to be an attention seeker. I wasn't a bad person for that, I just felt like no one cared about me and I was getting ignored. I was yelled at and mistreated at home, and got called vilifying names. So at school I often did certain things for attention. I'm disgraced by this now, but I grew to realise what it meant. I wanted someone to care about me, to listen, to feel loved. Do you think I'm a bad person for that?
A lot of people do a lot of stupid things, but the main question to ask is why.

Get the fait accompli mug.Like friendship where the feeling is mutual and reciprocated, but instead of being just each other's friends they simp for each other. This includes, but definitely not limited to: putting one on a pedestal as though they are the mere embodiment of perfection, constantly complimenting each other, always talking to each other, talking about the most boring stuff that you two still can't help but find interesting, whereas anyone else would've long been asleep if you had the same conversation with them, telling utterly pointless stories from your lives, telling secrets to them that you took a personal and seldom oath to yourself to never tell, etc.
If you feel that you have a relationship that is reminiscent of the aforementioned, you're made for each other. Ask them out.

Person 1: "I talk to him 24/7 and we never get tired of each other!"
Person 2: "Sounds like a simpship."

Get the Simpship mug.The "Besties" status on Snapchat. You send the most Snaps to this person, and they send the most Snaps to you too.
If you want to know if someone is your bestie on Snapchat, click their profile and see if there's a 💛 by their name.

Get the 💛 mug.A phrase that I used to believe was "cringe" - not really cringe but that's the only word that comes close to how I'd describe it. A friend of mine also found the word "cringe" too, but also agreed that the word cringe didn't do it justice either. Perhaps the notion of love was what made it cringe. My friend never told anyone they loved them, but rather showed it by action. I didn't willingly ever tell anyone I loved them, but only did so because they said it first and I would've gotten yelled at if I didn't say it back.
Then one day my friend and I realised we had a crush on each other (ironically), and that was the day we both said we loved each other and finally understood that it wasn't cringe at all, but perhaps the best thing in the world to hear from someone if it's the right "someone". From that day on there hasn't been a day we haven't told each other we love them.

"I love you" isn't cringe, it's the best and hardest phrase to say in the English language, but it means the universe and beyond if you hear it from just the right someone.

Get the I love you mug.A phatic expression (used as a greet or "small talk" for its own sake) for which I have an unaffected scorn. When I get up in the mornings, I have no desire to tell people good morning. I just want to be left alone. It's so annoying because half the time the people who say this are just random people at school like teachers who don't actually care, and only say it out of some moral obligation, and you're coerced into saying it back out of the same moral obligation and unbreakable social decency. I have social anxiety and really just don't want to talk to anyone. If it's said by someone who may actually give a shit, like family members or friends, then fine, but if it's stupid teachers who don't even acknowledge you but the first 10 seconds in the morning that they see you, then the phrase itself can go to Hell for all I care.
