Life has its up and downs but when that becomes to much you need to go to doctor. They can help you with depression. Either by helping you cope or letting you talk our your problems. Killing yourself will not solve anything.

I'm thinking of the same thing now. Seriously.
I'm having a beer, sitting in front of the computer. My mind is racing a million miles a minute.
I don’t even have a solution for myself, but I hope that I can somehow give you some hope, even if it is but a flicker. Sadly, the only thing that keeps me going is the memory that – I know I cannot get past a certain point if I do attempt to take my life. The self-preservation instinct always kicks in – believe you me.
I hope you’ll be OK tonight or today. Go give yourself a break, do something you enjoy tonight, call in sick tomorrow and see a doctor to get pills or whatever works for you. Me? I’m not fine, but I’ll be alive.
Good luck. Sometimes hope is all we have left. You can write to me if you feel like it. Regards.

I read your other question and what you had to say about medication, to that I have this to say: if the depression is bad enough that suicide has entered your mind then you have crossed the threshold from regular run-of-the-mill garden-variety depression to MEDICAL CONDITION depression. If you were a diabetic, you would take insulin, wouldn't you? You need to treat the depression so you can get on with your life. And almost all of the medications out there are not addictive as you feared, ask people who've taken them, ask a doctor.
I personally don't have a problem with suicide, but if you're gonna do it you should at least give treating the depression with doctor's help a chance first, otherwise you haven't really given it a shot.

Then do something to turn your life around.
Depression can be handled - it is not in your head - but very real. Without proper treatment it does get worse.
But nothing is as final and total as death. You have to make an effort to get out and do something for yourself. You don't say how old you are -- if you are young and still have a mother or father around - talk to them, they can get you the professional help you are in need of.
If you are older, say in college - speak to the counselors or a well valued professor. They can guide you.
If even older, then consult with your friends - and get a recommendation for a good shrink. If none if available - seek out your clergyman, priest, rabbi, etc. or consult the yellow pages for a therapist near you.
It's a good life - and we get out of it a lot more than we put in it most of the time - start learning to enjoy it.

I've been where you are...all I wanted was to be HAPPY again and it didn't seem possible...but you have to WANT to be happy again...PLEASE go see a doctor or find someone to confide in...get meds to alleviate the pain...there is no shame in that...also PRAY, PRAY, PRAY...that is what brought me out of my depression more than anything...even if you think there is no hope and that no one cares...JESUS cares and loves you and only wants the best for you. I also had a close friend take her own life in high school and I have NEVER gotten over it...I think of her every day...it's been nearly 20 years now and she is forever in my thoughts...you have no idea how many people you will hurt and how selfish an act that is...it will not solve anything...PLEASE get help...you are precious and worthy and deserve to be HAPPY. :)

Depression is certainly a black dog from hell, but it can be sensibly dealt with. Get some antidepressants from a medical doctor, eat only healthy foods (no sugar, it causes the blues), get out in the fresh air and take time to list things you are grateful for. This is from a person who has dealt with depression for years.

Twelve pack of beer along with favorite tunes on the radio in the front seat of a running car inside the garage! Perfect!

That is one of the most selfish things to do EVER!! We've all had to deal with life and what it dishes our way. Do you have anyone who loves you? Think about the way they would feel if you died. Will your life really be over? What if the afterlife is worse than this one? What are you going to do then? Talk to someone, preferably a higher power. Hold on. You are here for a reason.
