A conscious, sentient being driven to the point where they want to die is indicative that something is wrong and that conscious being is right in their decision to die. 6000 a year in the UK is a fucking alarm bell at full volume going, "what the fuck is wrong with you?!" I don't even know the statistic for how many attempts a year there are and my imagination can't create a suitable metaphor to communicate the severity, urgency, onus and all manner of other descriptors to describe what should be clear to anyone.

Those that kill themselves are driven to it. They shouldn't be but they are. This shouldn't happen to any conscious being. It is wrong.
