> One committed suicide by starving themselves to death

Don't mean to sound insensitive, but how exactly does one starve one self to death? Did this person had no visits, no family and nobody around watching as this happened? It's not exactly a quick or painless death right?

My great-grand mother told me stories of her father.

When he was bedridden by old age he decided to stop eating and that he did.

He was cared by his family but he decided to refuse eating and drinking.

Story has it that just before passing, he asked for a glass of water, drank it all and soon after passed.

I think this should also be taken in the context of the times when death was a different kind of subject I guess.
