Hi there,

i believe that when we face certain hard situation, the thought of committing suicide might surface as a choice to end our problem altogether. This is very disturbing when i read about the news of a 22years old chap jumping from the building when he suffered a failed relationship.

I heard that those who jump from building will not feel the pain when they landed because they are "death" from the very moment they jump...argument been, over-scared and over-shocked. How true is this?

can explain more on "sometimes the brain can choose not to register the pain"? how can that be done without drugs intervention?

maybe the perception is different between a paraglider and a man that intent to end his life. Paraglider jumps because they expectation to jump is towards fulfilling their dreams, curiosity or etc (on positive side), whereas, a man who intent to end his life maybe will have a more negative expectation - that's to end his own life. Basically, i just want to say that one jump to obtain pleasure and one jump to end suffering. Not sure bout this

argument being they are diverting their attention on survival and death instead of pain? Or it's very much on consciousness? Once i climbed over the fence and i fall down, realising that there's a slight pain on my hand, it's not that painful until i look at it and find out that a portion of my flesh is torn....it is a choice to condemn the feeling of pain? i do not think that we can actually do it if we are conscious and not distracted by any other things.

Come back to the suicidal, when he jumps, he's diverting his attention to his problems, as such, when he crashes the floor, that intense pain lasted for few mili second because it kills it immediately. However, in his case, he manage to survive another 6 hours before certified death....do you mean that he will not feel the pain within that 6 hours because he never survive through. If he does survive through, then, he will feel the pain. Should i conclude that?
