Okay, so tonight I have a topic for which I am interested in input.

I've recently read a ficlet involving a suicide. Now, I personally don't touch suicide. Having not experienced it or been touched by it, I don't consider myself as having the right to touch that subject.

When I was first into fanfiction, and I was an idiot, I wrote about both suicide and masochism, which I am very ashamed about. I certainly don't do that now. I have never experienced anything but one-sided romance, either, but for some reason I feel secure and not disrespectful writing about that anyway.

Any-the-how.

Does anyone else think that it's disrespectful to write about suicide? Does anyone think that it's perfectly acceptable so long as it's treated with proper severity and realisticness?

Also, thoughts. Waen says that considering suicide is emphatically not a calm thing. She says one doesn't calmly shoot oneself or take aspirin or slit one's wrists. Have never seriously considered suicide. Cannot offer an opinion.

I'm just wondering about such things, due to the ficlet.
