So if someone you knew was to kill themselves tonight, would you consider them a victim of bullying or would you consider yourself a victim of their suicide?

I know how stupid that sounds because I feel like I wrote it in a weird way, but it's a point that I constantly see thrown out there. For example, when Amanda Todd killed herself she was a victim of bullying, but from that point on she was gone, and the definition of victim is "A person harmed, injured, or killed as a result of a crime, accident, or other event or action."

From the point where she killed herself and onward, she was not a victim, because she was no longer human, she was dead. A person is a person until they are dead, at which point they meet Dumbledore in King's Cross Station. He gives them a choice, catch a train to the next life, or go back. But because she was a Death Eater in training Dumbledore abandoned her, leaving her to sit in that station with nothing but her thoughts. So who was the real victim in the end? Amanda Todd. She was a victim of afterlife abandonment. So in the end she killed herself because everyone hated her and she wanted an escape, but nobody likes her in the afterlife either.

So, Flood, what are your thoughts on this? do you agree with my points? Explain what's going through your head after reading that.

Well, in my educated opinion, my thoughts on this are- TL;DR

My Brahman is ready.

The people affected by the suicide, IMO.

Recon Number 54 -
If they are still looking, then while holding the snarl, I let drool start to drip from my mouth, I stand, curl my fingers into claws and with a hunched over crouch, I then make slow and deliberate steps towards them. When I get close enough, I let them hear my agonized and gasping growls and then, if they continue to stare, when I get within arm's reach? I kiss them on the nose, and run away giggling.

The whole harry potter thing in the middle was quite confusingly written.

The true victims of a Suicide are the Family and Friends. It is selfish and shortsighted to kill yourself, but I do understand why people do it (In some cases)

Cyber Bullying always confuses me, as I am under the impression that there is a 'Block User' button on most sites. And if it gets bad just stop using it.

You look around.You fire your weapon before you realize.
Its just me. I fall and you walk up. You cry why.
When i pop up. You look at me in wonder. I say,"ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL."
You bend to my will and go to a cliff, walk off, and fall.
The last thing you hear is me stating as fact,"All will fail the battle of life, you just went early"

The suicidal person is the victim of the bullying, but is only the victim of the suicide because they bring it on themselves.

There are no other "victims".

Trust me: the stuff you don't see or hear, but know exists, is the worst part. Blocking them doesn't help, because you know what they would be saying anyways. You can't retaliate against what you can't see, but it can hurt you all the same.

Marley: next time try to be a little for inconspicuous.
John: What do you mean?
Marley: John, we grow lots of gear, right?
John: Yeah loads...
Marley: So try not to come back with a wasted girl and a packet of fertilizer!

I've always thought of suicide as cowardly unless you have no close friend or family. Because if you do, they're going to go through decades of psychological trauma and it'll probably mess up their whole lives, romantically, socially and at work. For the person who kills themself, it's all over in an instant (unless they're a moron and kills themself by drinking bleach or something ridiculous)
