I recently rewatched the Incredibles since I was a kid. It hit me HARD watching that opening because legit I could see that whole suit happening, especially since his neck got broken? There's a reason we need those laws and it's sad.
And while there are countless factors that can contribute to one’s wish to take his or her own life, the ultimate decision is often an impulsive one. Kevin Hines, who survived a leap from the Golden Gate Bridge, has famously said that in the moments after he jumped, he regretted his suicide attempt.
Because if you don’t say that, then you can be committed against your will to a hospital. I spent a week against my will in in patient psych. Since that experience, you’ve never met anyone more anti suicide than me.
I very much understand the current broken state of mental healthcare, well atleast in the US. I've had close family go through the system and it sucked.
But that said, this article is talking about changes to brain chemistry and immediate reactions from people who had various suicide attempts. Their stances are not about avoiding institutions.
