So i have a question that i absolutely need everyone's input on. It is legitimately someone else's conundrum mind you, but seeing as the field that i one day hope to be going into.. It would be somethings nice to know.. And i don't think that they teach this one in the text books..
I had a friend from work (and i use the term friend quite loosely) first ask me if suicidal thoughts were rational or out of desperation.. And i of course answered with the latter.. Suicide is an escape from insurmountable and unsolvable issues. And then they asked me what happens when the thoughts of desperation become rational? What happens, when you simply have a thought that things would be better off without your existence. To have thoughts of suicide as non-shalant as whether or not you want a burger or a wrap for lunch?
I need some help with this one....
