As for suicide, its a touchy subject isnt it? So many affected by it, so many have tried or contemplated it. Yet it remains a taboo. Outlawed still in some places and not socially acceptable anywhere you go, so I can understand that someone might have found the title too provocative/painful.
However if we continue to hide away from this word (because thats all it is) we continue to demonise it and the act with which it is asscociated.

Absolutly, which is why I feel this word should not be avoided or outlawed as if its the 'N' word it is a descriptive word in this case to indicate the danger of such doors in general to describe the premature ending of a life by own hand.
Suicide kills more young men ie under 40 than , cancer or car wrecks, drugs or even war (at this moment) yet most people chose to ignore it.
My family have been hit by this on three occasions and I have lost a couple of friends this way but I felt the worst insult was not being able to talk about it freely.
