A high percentage of suicide attempts are to get attention, and if they are going to such lengths to get it, they should. Sadly, a lot of people that do it end up actually killing themselves even if they weren't really prepared to go through with it. I had a friend that died after swallowing pills, he changed his mind but it was too late. He died an excruciating death in the hospital... makes me sad every time I think about it.
Even if this helps one person it's worth it.
Agreed, I'm just worried that people will try and abuse this system to get attention.
