After the documentary was released, three people decided to commit suicide by jumping off the bridge after watching the film, and they died as a result.
But in the long run, "The Golden Gate Bridge" prevented about 200 people from jumping off the bridge.
Then the professor asked, should this documentary appear from the beginning?
Statistically speaking, this is totally doable. The deaths of three people and the lives of two hundred people are not comparable, and it is also known which is more important. However, the family where the three belonged also suffered or suffered pain that they did not have to bear. Their grief will not be alleviated by the fact that 200 people have been saved. What they have lost is what they have lost forever, and they will not be able to see their loved ones again from now on.
That class was a suicide topic specially set aside by the professor. The documentary only saw parts, we argued for more than an hour, some said it was their right, some said it was unfair to those who were left behind. No one could convince anyone, and without reaching a conclusion, the professor finally said, if suicide prevention is unnecessary, what has she been fighting for all her life?
A little over a week later, my second uncle committed suicide.
I don't see my second uncle much, but my second aunt a lot. I only know that he is a good person. Sometimes when I chat with him, he will ask two questions about how hard it is to study and I will ask two questions about my little niece. He will often bring us hometown products in large and small bags, and every family will take care of them. I can only see him about six or seven times a year, and every time I see him, he is happy. He's not good at words, he smiles very honestly, and he is very good to our younger generation.
The second aunt is a typical housewife. Housekeeping, frugal, and delicious cooking. The second aunt and the second uncle called out their names directly. They also have a daughter and a son. The eldest daughter is married and has a daughter. The son just got on the right track and started to work seriously.
However, these were all abandoned by the second uncle.
My parents didn't want me to know about it, I had to hear it privately from my sister.
I secretly told my sister that I was going to buy a plane ticket to go back before the funeral.
It took a while for my sister to tell me that it seems to have been buried and that there may not be a funeral.
I still have no real feeling.
I don't think it's true. Although I know my family won't talk about this kind of thing, I still don't think it's true.
It was my mother's birthday two days before the accident, and my sister was still saying that everyone would come to her house to celebrate her birthday, and that I would be sent to her. She said that in a few days, my grandmother's birthday would be eaten with the whole family.
Then suddenly one person was missing.
Really will never be seen. We didn't even see him one last time.
But I didn't think at the time that my life would change without my second uncle. It's ugly to say that, but apart from crying for the first few days, I quickly recovered. It's time to eat and laugh. A week later, I have a video with my family, and they are the same as always.
I was thinking about him until I watched this documentary.
Crying while thinking.
The second uncle chose to leave our life.
In the special class, a girl was about to cry. She said that because of her personal experience, she had committed suicide and was rescued. She is really grateful that her parents didn't give up on her at that time and insisted on taking her to counseling so that she could get through those days.
That time was the darkest memory in her life, but she was very fortunate that she came over.
She choked at the end and said never give up on those who want to kill themselves.
I really can't write.
There's a section in the documentary, it's Jene's friend. He said, Jene had people in this world that loved him. And he hurt them. He hurt me.
