Predictors of Suicidal Behavior Found In Blood
ananyo writes "Researchers may have found a way to potentially predict suicidal behaviour by analyzing someone's blood. Using blood samples taken by the coroner from nine men who had committed suicide, they found six molecular signs, or biomarkers, that they say can identify people at risk of committing suicide. To check whether these biomarkers could predict hospitalizations related to suicide or suicide attempts, the researchers analysed gene-expression data from 42 men with bipolar disorder and 46 men with schizophrenia. When the biomarkers were combined with clinical measures of mood and mental state, the accuracy with which researchers could predict hospitalizations was more than 80% (abstract)."
You already do, but you're too ignorant to realize it. There are only a couple countries where suicide is legal.
I'm all for letting people commit suicide. Its great for the gene pool. It gets rid of all the pussies who can't deal with reality. People like yourself, that think suicide is an acceptable path in life should do it and prove me wrong. The sooner you do, the better off we'll all be for a whole shitload of reasons. There really is nothing logical about suicide. If you aren't dead, there is a potential for something to change. If you are dead, thats it, you no longer exist, it doesn't get better, it just goes away and so do you. I understand people who kill themselves due to medical issues, but that doesn't make it okay, it just means we failed to address all of their medical issues.

Your position is non sequitur. You say you're all for letting people commit suicide, but then go on to insult them, call them illogical, and say that suicide is not okay. I suspect that you simply have a misguided sense of superiority, and are trying to demonstrate it.
