I sincerely would like to know:
1. What are you trying to accomplish by committing suicide?
2. What do you expect to see after you die?

Do you believe that hearing the same thing over and over again can cause someone do suicide.

Example:
Have a teacher always parsing(good job) to only one kid in front of the whole class, almost everyday. Could this make others think they are not good enough and result in death of themslef. If so please so a website or info from a soruce.

At first glance, any specks or spots look like a tiny bug untill i do a double take and confirm that it is only a piece of pencil lead or a hole in the wall from a pushpin. One night i was up really late and i saw a grasshopper in my basement and i freaked out. I went to go to sleep but in my bed there was a tick and i flipped out i was crying hysterically and i couldnt go to sleep i was checking my entire body for bugs and was convinced i had fleas [i didnt]. ever since then, i keep seeing bugs when they arent really there. I know that its not a bug, its just dirt or a chip in the tile or something, but i have to reassure that it isnt a bug. Am i schizophrenic or something? Sometimes i hear the phone ring when its not actually ringing and sometimes i smell things things that aren't present. Idk whats goin on

I have been prescribed Cymbalta for my depression. I am also an aspiring writer. Before Cymbalta I would write but it was sporadic and half of the time I didn't feel like it. Now since taking it I feel more motivated to write and have more ideas. What causes this? Thanks

him, right? So if you are mugged twice by one race, how do you avoid having a reaction when you see someone of the same race? Not exactly racism, because the body (or mind) reacts automatically. I live close to many and play a sport with some, but that doesn't prevent me from a fear reaction when I find myself on an elevator with someone of that race. You might say that, unconsciously, my inner mind has stereotyped that race, but how do you cure that condition of your mind? You can't just talk your subconscious into changing, when you react automatically.

2 weeks ago, I checked myself into a behavioral health hospital because I had an anxiety attack & was feeling suicidal. The doctor put me on antipsychotic meds (Seroquel) 300 mg/day& antidepressants (Wellbutrin) 150 mg/day, & I found out that the doctor went by what the nurses said negatively about me since I didn't get along with them. They were very arrogant & rude & when I had anxiety attacks in the hospital, they snuck behind my back & lied & said I was attention-seeking & paranoid because they're ignorant of OCD. I know I don't have psychosis, so I took a double dose of my meds on Thursday after I got out the hospital, feeling suicidal again since I felt I didn't receive adequate help & the nurses lied on me & the Dr. didn't even try to help me. After that I quit taking the meds cold turkey because I felt I didn't belong on them. & now my legs are shaking uncontrollably. My friend told me to relax in the hot tub, but it only helped a little.

My husband worked at a place for almost 30 years when it finally closed down. That was 7 years ago. He has since gotten another job, but his pay still isn't up to what it used to be. Every single day, he tells us the story of how family don't understand that he used to make this much money and he still hasn't caught up and that he can't afford to do what they do, ect... How do I get him to move past his past and move forward?

I was wondering how I can help a girl I know that has been abused. She isn't my girlfriend, but we have been getting really close lately and she has told me about her past. She was physically abused by her father until about the 7th grade. She has moved out of the house and is living on her own now. I don't know what to say or how to help her. I want to be there for her 100% but I have never been through anything like that so I can't fully understand what she went through. What can I say or do to help her?

I keep having thoughts of suicide and what would happen if I died. It all has to do with an embarassing incident that happened in 7th grade that all my peers are sure to remember, please don't tell me they probably don't, because they do they don't tease me about it but they still talk (my friends tell me). I live in a small town so I can't get away from it, and I just feel so inferior to everyone and everytime I do something wrong it just amplifies what I already feel inside... I want to die. I haven't dated anyone and I'm in 10th grade, I have very few friends, and my parent's seem to be more concerned with my twin sisters than me. I just feel like I the world seems better off without me. What can I do to get these thoughts out of my head?
