Web Suicides
3 Japanese Deaths Linked to Web Suicides

TOKYO - Three people were found dead in an apartment in western Japan in what appeared to be the latest in a series of group suicides linked to the Internet, police said Sunday.
More than a dozen people have died so far this year in group suicides in which participants are believed not to have known each other before meeting online.
A 30-year-old man and two women aged 21 and 18 were found dead Saturday night of carbon monoxide poisoning from a charcoal stove in a sealed room in the man's apartment in the western city of Kyoto, said a police officer at the Fushimi precinct. Their bodies were sprawled on a bed, and a suicide note was found in another room.
The three were from different prefectures, or states, and investigators believe they may have met over an Internet site that brings together people who want to end their lives, said the officer, who spoke on condition of anonymity.
Dozens of such sites have sprung up online in Japan, where a decade-long economic slump has been blamed for an increasing number of suicides.

Its sad that people choose the easy way out of life because they think their life sucks, when in fact it is the person who can change their own life to be anyway they want it to be....

Sometimes suicide looks like the "only" way out. Sometimes you lose your perspective and insight. I feel bad for people that commit suicide, and I think many people can contemplated it. Life has a lot to offer, and exactly how you say it..if you're willing to work at it. Sometimes you see one side, work work work, but don't see the benefits of it all outweigh everything.
