Self involved and manipulative.

I really don't see the point of this. I guess it is to draw out the pity party? I just found Victor to be somewhat pathetic, not in any way, heroic. Eventually, he painted himself into a corner, sadly everyone bought into the bravado, and my belief is he thought he would be "saved" in the end.

I have known a few people who have committed suicide, some seemly without warning, others are drawn out for a while, begging for help, but getting none that seemed to help.

I have also known others that received help and have moved on, even people that were terminally ill and in pain.

I live in a "Death with Dignity" state. I am terminally ill and have a prescription to end my life when it becomes unbearable. Everyone has their own point where that happens, I guess. A grand exit is essential to some people, I think. I was not impressed with Victor's attempt.
