Pain can literally force you to consider doing anything to
stop it. I know this from personal experience.
Pain has driven me to discuss the amputation of both of my
lower legs simply to escape from it. I know how it can
affect the mind. I did not know this man, and only vaguely
recognized the name.
I hope only that he found the peace and calm he sought and
that God will grant him mercy for what he has done.
Just my humble opinion.
Yeah, I know the feeling, tx.
Earlier in my life I had a condition that caused chronic daily intense pain, and the condition was not treatable.
It caused me to do a lot of stupid stuff like trying to kill myself with pills.
I’m glad I didn’t though, because one day God saw fit to end my suffering. The pain just stopped. My days since then have been much better. I’m really glad to still be here.
I had another instance later on in life about 9 months to a year of extremely intense nerve pain, which is truly the worst pain I have ever felt.
That was treatable however thank God. But those experiences have shown me what people can go through, and how it affects the mind and body and soul.
I feel badly for this man.
