Mental illness being a deadly disease to the soul naturally plays the same prank that physical illness plays on the body. When the body is sick it loses appetite for food. Likewise, when the mind gets sick it loses appetite for enlightenment or positive energy. One of the negative effects of this is that the mind soon begins to ponder on suicide as a way to deal with the current predicament.
this piece seeks to question my audience on suicide, is it really worth the stress? I also make a mockery of the act by exposing the dominos effect one suicide decision can spiral down on others. Whereas it may seem to be a heroic way of facing problems to the one committing the act, the opposite is exactly the case when we consider how many others such decision has put in a place of difficulty. Suicide isn't suicide, it's Murder, the frustrated us killing the gifts in us.
