Suicide can take many forms other than physically killing oneself There is professional suicide, where one, consciously or unconsciously (frequently unconsciously) breaks contacts and relationships which have stood for many years Where one offends customers for no reason (or for reasons only imagined ) Where one lets business opportunities deliberately slide away without caring, without a backward glance except to say, "Good riddance. I didn't need the aggravation, anyway" There is marital suicide where one allows irritations to build to rage which leads to saying hurtful things (or worse) that, previously, would have remained unspoken. Where one, deliberately or not lets situations get out of hand, far beyond the point where logic would say, "Stop this. It isn't worth it. This must be coming from somewhere else." There is social suicide Where one lets slide personal relationships to the point where others take offense and break off contact. Where one leaves groups that have been the mainstay and pleasure of one's past There are many faces of suicide other than physically killing oneself
