No, attempting suicide is a cry for help. Committing suicide is the most selfish act one can do.
It's that simple. If you want to kill yourself, you kill yourself. It you want help, you get help.

Just so that you understand this.

And I do agree that a lot of kids cut for some kind of attention. However, this kind of cut in a suicide attempt is a serious attempt, not a "i want attention from mommy and daddy" cut.

What ATTEMPT are you talking about? Didn't you just say it's not difficult to kill yourself? Enlighten me, if it's not difficult to kill yourself, how can such a simple act not be completed???? If they really wanted to kill themselves, they would do so.

Most of the time you see this attempt unsuccessful is because these people have enough time to go, "oh ****... this is not what I wanted..." or something like that runs through their head and they have enough time to get to the hospital before they die.

Interesting theory, especially after you already stated...

take your head out of your ass and realize that not everyone is as mentally stable as you so obviously are and not everyone has the same thought process...

That's unfortunate.

you are incredibly wrong in your assumptions regarding suicide and cutting and the mental abilities of those suffering from severe depression, situational depression, etc...

Attempting suicide is a cry for help, AKA ATTENTION WHORING. It's weird that just about every single medical professional agrees that a suicide attempt is a cry for help, and yet you sit here and tell me that I need to pull my head out of my ass. Wake up, and smell the roses. Everyone goes through some form of depression, everyone has different and crazy thoughts, but only true attention whores attempt to commit suicide.
Lastly, for the record, I am not grouping TRUE psychiatric disorders in the above group. Being a teenager doesn't get you in to that category though, sorry!
