Suicide or homicide in a hospital bathroom
My brother who works as a doctor at an emergency hospital always tells me strange stories he faces in his work, about violent fights, terrible accidents, gun shots…etc, but yesterday he told me the strangest story ever happened at the hospital.
A patient found hanged in the bathroom, when he was discovered, he was already dead. He was hanged with a bandage which was tied to the water tubes at the roof of the bathroom.
The possibility of this being a homicide is still present, as this patient was involved in a fight with other people, he was admitted to the hospital one week before with fractures because of this fight..
So the question remains unsolved, is it a suicide or a homicide, well, all this will be discovered with the aid of forensic medicine.
It is sad really…when someone just loses the will of living, when even breathing becomes very hard , very painful ….
When there is no light at the end of the tunnel ,no one to help , when there is too much of suffering , when the idea of dying becomes an obsession , the only thing that you can think of , the only way , the only solution of all your problems , is just to die , to leave , to be free …
What made that man commit suicide , if it was not a homicide ?...
Maybe he had some psychological problems?
Maybe he was completely normal but he had big problems and he is just too tired to face them?
Maybe he just lost every thing that is important to him, and he just lost the will of living any more?
Maybe he was suffering for many reasons, and even breathing became hard to him , thinking became painful , he just wanted some relief ?
And it is strange , but sometimes , when you are really fed up, and you pass through a crazy moment that no one can save you from , at that point , even a hospital bandage becomes an answer , a savior , a way to relief , to make an end to the pain and suffering , and at that point , it seems very normal to commit suicide , it does not seem as something wrong to do or as a murder , it becomes just a choice to make , and life is full of choices ..And that was his …
Maybe that was what he is thinking of , when he took the bandage and climbed on the toilet seat and hanged himself with a bandage band from the pipe and just let his legs drop …
That he was just , making a choice ….
A life time choice !

When somebody reaches the point of taking his own life,that means he reached a point of complete insanity ,only insane people can justify this.suicide is not a choice,not an answer.Suicide is a way to leave the show early before the end.
I always felt sorry for those who reached this point,what lead them to there?what choices they made that got them to the moment of killing themselves?what other people's contributions in taking this decision?
sometimes suicide is a way to say:enough.sometimes its a way to say i can't take it anymore,some times it expresses the disappointments,the loss,the anger,the fear,.Suicide is represent the worst in humans,and that's why it is not a choice,it is just a way to escape what we hate about ourselves and the world.It is not a choice,it is a door way out.
I always felt sorry for those who had taken their own life.They ere alone,their last moment was in a bathroom,a farm,in an empty huose.no hand to hold theirs,no eyes to look them in the face telling them that they are loved and cared for,so dont do it.
we all had our moments i believe.we all think that it may be a good idea that we stop ticking now.i know it and i hate it,because that mean we suffer a great deal of pain and cnfusion in this insane world.
i always wondered about the very last thought of in their head,what was it?was it regret,was it relief?was it hope that some body would save them now?
a very good topic and an interesting subject that will draw a lot of discussion i believe.
Good work
and,,,think good of tomorrow.
a very sad story indeed.
Alhamdulellah that we are Muslimeen which forbids us from commiting suicide, many non believers choose this option but its an easy way out and they loose their life and their Akhera (life after death).
Thank u Benghazicitezen for you nice comment , Well I think that when people are in a deep depression they can commit suicide too and not only insane people ....
Actually, I asked my brother about that patient and he has no psychological history or a mental problems , I am sure he was in a deep depression and he passed through a crazy moment …
But the question remains; Have he felt regret at the very last second ?
I hope not, I don’t judge people who commit suicide, because people are not the same , we don’t have the same instinct to live and survive at the same level …
Thank u anglo for ur comment , That patient was a Muslim too , but that did not stopped him I guess, I feel sad too for those people , it is so sad thing to happened to a human been .
yes of course he was a muslim but I dont think that he was a believer or he would not have done it, at least i dont think so.
its a very intersting subject though.
hii sis , thank for this story which i can not say it is a happy story , well when i told my husband about this story he said (the problem is in our country we lack the social and psychatric department who should take care of the patients who have problem , depression and other things )and yes i agree with him , and with u and that man did not have another choice like did the social surround gave him a choic , well i think not and i think they did not know that he is excist , well thanks again and keep on .
Hi sis , thank u for ur nice comment , I agree with u and ur husband :0)
My conditioning repents to suicide. So I reject suicide as a means to finish one's life. But what else, in case all venues to life were closed....I don't know may be suicide becomes an option!
Thank Gheriani , and yes , I totally agree with you :0)
Sad story with a tragic ending.
this poor man has lost faith and hope, to reach a point that he can take his life away in such a way.
allah yer7am jamee3 amwat elmuslemeen
Well said.
