Yes. Also, most insurances won't pay the survivors.
If you're feeling suicidal, call the suicide help line. Or, get ahold of your doctor and/or emergency room. |

Surprised nobody has asked why you are asking!! The problems are that normally Insurance companies do not pay up insurance policies if you commit suicide. It is supposidly illegal although if you do it nobody will ever be able to charge you for it. You'll just leave behind others in pain. It has a ripple effect on family and friends and aquintences. |

Not in the UK, although suicide is not a natural cause of death and is one of the possible verdicts of a coroners inquest. Many religions consider it unacceptable to commit suicide, and it is certainly very sad for all those left behind. I do hope that you are not considering such a measure! |

In the United States it is illegal. A failed attempt can be prosecuted.
If you are suicidal, seek help. The number of failed suicides is very high. The disabilities and harm incurred are objectionable. They range from physical to mental to a combination of the two.
It is better not to attempt such an act. There are legal reprocutions for survivors as well as psychological ones. |

Yes it is. It's the only crime that cannot be punished if successfully committed. |

I think in most cases, assuming one doesn't succeed in the attempt, police are not involved. Usually you will have to suffer through a psychiatric evaluation and a stay at a mental ward facility. They will try to "fix" you with therapists and meds...
If you believe in God it's REALLY not a good idea. Christians believe that suicide is the ultimate sin and you won't go to Heaven if you kill yourself...
The way I look at it is that if you kill yourself there's no chance for anything to get better because you are dead and you can't make life better if you don't exist anymore. Even if you are depressed, anxious etc. there is always some amount of hope that things could get better. I do know how that feeling is but I just keep hoping that things will get better. I also try to remember that it's selfish to take your own life because you are affecting those people who love you and leaving them behind to grieve over your loss... |

It's Illigal, and alot of times a bad idea. If you have the oppurtunity to be online and have things like this, your already doing better then most. |

It used to be a criminal offence here in the UK but is no longer an offence. Assisting a person to commit suicide is .. and it carries a mandatory 14 years inside.
Some insurance companies don't pay out on Suicide cases.
Suicide leaves loved ones and friends devastated. it's the most dreadful thing to accept when the person that did it was loved so deeply by so many, a piece of your heart dies. |

well they cannot take you to court when you are dead can they, but is it illegal in God,s law to as Choose you and made you even before you were born and you are special and he loves you so much he sent his only son to die for you a son he loves dearly.
That is how special you are. Don,t believe crap you may have heard about yourself believe the truth what God says about you and the bible says we have to renew our thinking through daily bible reading. and mediation. YOu are loved say it out loud everyday and defeat those negative thoughts denise take care beloved |

probally ,but what are they going to do about it ,they can't arrest you , when your dead. |

If you unsucessfully attempt suicide the police can 'arrest' you under section 136 of the mental health act. This is not because you have commited a crime it is just the police's ability to take you to a place of safety if you are presenting as a risk to others or yourself due to your mental state.
Older law did class suicide as a crime but that was likely due to religious culture then.
Insurance companies wil not pay out for a suicide. |
