I no longer have a desire or passion for anything in life; im so very tired. should i kill myself?

Answer 1

Why not wait it out and see if it gets better? Because it usually does. It may not feel like it at the time, but trust me, you'll feel better soon and the clouds will lift.

Answer 2

What makes you think that killing yourself would put you in a better place than you are right now?

The answer is no - you should not kill yourself. That is a definite.

If you are serious, and you are not joking, then you need to force yourself to do one thing. Pick up the phone and speak to a 911 operator immediately, stating just what you said here.

As an alternative you could call any local suicide hotline, which you can find by dialing 411 and talk to the first counselor that gets on the telephone with you.

The one thing to keep in mind that the idea of suicide because you have no real desire or passion for anything is wrong. Its a trick of your mind and its a problem that can today, be very easily remedied. There are a number of very good and very effective therapies for this feeling. But no therapy can work unless you give it chance.

No you shouldn't. I spent 16 years in the Army Special Forces. In that time I saw hundreds if not thousands die. I see a great many of them every night when I go to sleep. Life isn't something cheap to be throw away simply because life is rough! I'm quite certain that anyone of them would have gladly traded places with you. To have lived, loved,lost,made mistakes and maybe had the chance to just grow old! As for myself let me tell you what rough is; 3 divorces: catching the first one with my brother, the second with my best friend, the third wanting a divorce because I became a cripple that has 20% of his spine and 60% of his nervous system left (all because I spent 16 years trying to help others) but you know I get up every morning take a deep breath no matter has friggin much it hurt(and trust me most the time it's excruciating) and I go and face the day and make the most of it, even knowing there will never be a cure or even an improvement. Just a slow steady painful decline until enough of my nervous system quits working and I simply drop over. Between now and then I got mountains to climb and women to meet and life to LIVE!!! So don't tell me about rough, all that is wrong with you is fear! Lose the fear and there isn't anything that can't be done. So get up and LIVE!!!

Answer 4

You are lying, because if you trully did not desire anything, then you would not want death.
You would also not want this answer.

You should not kill yourself as you are under wrong thinking.
Sit down alone and analyze yourself until you reach an answer to what is trully the problem.

- Life is neither good, nor bad.
- I don't matter, nor do any of my actions.
- Why should you be any diferent?

No single life is important, only all life is important, or none.
We all fail in this mission. We all die.

As long as you're here do nothing with someone.
Death will come anyway...
No death is worth dying for, but maybe your life is.

Answer 5

Dear friend even though I do not know you in person, there are
so very many reasons why the answer to that is no. In Feb. of
this year my 16 year old nephew died in a very violent car accident it was driven by another teenager who was two times over the limit of alchol. My nephew was an amazing person he
was with this kid to help him. My nephew died and my best and
dearest friend my sister (his mother) tried her hardest to live with
this ....she finally took every medication she could find and she
stopped breathing, the ambulance was call and they revived her.
She didnt mean to do this she was just so depressed and down and loanly for her baby son. She had other children and grand children and me and my sisters and my brother and her other
friends. We almost lost her. Then we got so very very mad at her.
We had already suffered this other tragic loss just months ago,
we would have never made sense of this death. Her husband
would have just stopped wanting to try with children still at home.
My sister who almost died... realized that suicide even not well
thought out is so very very selfish. It does so much damage to
the living. If you are a religious person, than it is a sin. But God
is the judge of all our hearts not others. Desire and Passion are
things that you can regain and cultivate. I have thought the way
you are thinking ...you ARE tired. But please think about the
affect that it would have on others and if not that than pray about
it and rest.

Answer 6

Why don't you use your credit card to buy a plane ticket to a part of the world you've often thought about, and wished being in. And then just live there. Make sure you never plan on using your credit card again, because your not going to pay it back....then just live life in this totally different part of the world for a week, and decide whether you still want to end your life....I think you may encounter a new adventure..that may breed a sense of excitement and passion in you. Do something completely absured and random like this before you bid farewell (because chances are, you'll want to keep on livin' :-)

Answer 7

NO!! You should Not kill yourself. You might not feel like it at the moment, but you ARE worthwile.
I regularly go through stages when I feel like you've described. When I get past each stage, I'm feel relieved that I got through it safely. I think of it as a marathon: it's hard to keep going, but that's what you do, keep putting one foot in front of the other.

You WILL get back your passion for life (and everything in it) Find someone to talk to, and for the moment, take life one day at a time (or like when I'm really bad, 10mins at a time)

Remember : YOU ARE WORTHWHILE ignore the little voice that says otherwise.


ps. you must be worhwhile. look at all the people who've answered you!

Answer 8

Are you saying, then, that you used to have a desire or passion for things? What was different then?

Don't try suicide - Try other things first. Try medication - cymbalta is a great new antidepressant. Try getting enough rest, exercise, good food. Try calling a support hotline.

here's an interesting fact about humans - we often wait until we 'feel' like doing something before we do it. however, for most of us, the motivation to do something comes AFTER we start. so, even tho you don't have an interest in something, start doing something. fake it until you make it.

Answer 9

Killing yourself is not the answer to your question. I realize that things can seem so bad that you wish you could end it all, or that you were never even born. Part of these feelings come from experiences we have with people, jobs, or internal conflicts. But all of these can be dealt with with help.
How can you be sure that tomorrow you will find the one thing in life that interests and excites you? What If? However you must understand that you have to help yourself, and what better person to help? You are worthy of life, love, and happiness and you have to be willing to stick it out and find it. I wish you all the strength to do just that.!!!

Answer 10

Not having desire or fire to do anything does not mean that you are not fit for living. think over the positive things you have in life. for instance so many unknown people have come to reach you only because you have access to yahoo answers, there are so many who have nothing to look forward to. Ask god for his guidance.

You can go outside and do a good deed to an unfortunate person. U can help yourself only by helping others. And if it still makes you feel useless, you can help others find soul searching answers, by sharing what you know on yahoo answers.

Answer 11

I feel like this a lot myself when I'm tired at night. I no longer have the energy to fight off all my worries. The best fix? Get a good night's sleep. If you're still thinking this way in the morning, let your doctor/parents/good friend/spouse know ASAP. They will care. My dad forgets my birthday every year, but as soon as I mentioned "no longer caring about life" he was alllll over it.

Take care of yourself.
