Suicide!??!?

Question

ok... I have had uncountable friends and aqutainces... that i know about attempt(one succeded) suicide by various forms. This has driven me to constantly think about it and have attemped it before after events with my family have driven to insanity and a point in my life with no options. this is usually done with dictating my life and putting pressure on me on everything i do. weather it is a good acheivement/goal or a mistake that i have made in the past. its almost like a drug(suicide) i currently am taking antidepressants and perscriptions for anti pshycotic/schizoprenia and have been seeing a shrink (1 of 5) who seems to put life events over my general well being... plus since i have been seeing phyciatrists (late 2002) starting at college everyhting else in my life ie other family members has deterriated not just emotionally but physically.. i don't think i can handle this with my family shutting me out like they are

Answer 1

I'm sorry about your situation, I lost my dad to suicide a little less then 2 years ago. Please, know that you may not think that anyone will miss you , but it isn't true a great deal of people will miss. Know there is other ways out, i have had suicidal thoughts before, but my dad leaving my family and I has showed me that it hurts why to much to deal with. Please don't resorted to suicide.

If you need to talk you may e-mail me I know what you are feeling, sweetie.

Answer 2

I know how you feel. I have taken antidepressants and the thing is when you feel like this, you always want a quick way out. Everyone DESERVES to be happy. Its even harder when there is no support system. But I know you don't want to do it, b/c why else would you reach out? Sometimes help can come in many ways (YAHOO Ask). Anyone that has never been depressed can not understand it. I have been through hell a year ago. I lost so much in my life b/c some people dont have the capacity in them to care. But no one is worth it, if they make you stop loving yourself. Be strong and keep writing to this when you feel down. There are good people in this world. You have to believe it.

Answer 3

Been there done that .... first off suicide hurts really really bad if you use a gun well if you miss and even if you don't your body has to die it hurts... pills well guess what it is not as romantic as the T.V. shows make it.. it really really hurts your body want to live plus when you are considered 5150 and well this really stays on your record... trust me i still think about it but one it hurts to much to kill yourself and I believe that when the Divine wants me not to see the world and experience life They will close my eyes and stop my heart....talk to your counselor you may be on the wrong meds get a second opinion... best bet read any and I mean any of the books by Iyanla Vanzant start with "One Day My Soul Just Opened Up"... life is good too good to throw away

Answer 4

suicide is not an answer, it is the most major form of cop-out there is. you might as well paint a big sign and hang it around your neck that says HEY EVERYBODY I AM A BIG ******* BABY AND I CANT DEAL WITH THE OBSTACLES LIFE THROWS IN MY WAY, NOR AM I WILLING TO TRY TO DEAL WITH MY PROBLEMS! sorry for the harsh tones, i have attempted suicide also, so i know where you are coming from, but stop and think about all the people who are in your life and ask your self are you willing to put them thru the kind of pain that killing yourself will put them thru. continue to see counselers, make them hear you. if you feel they are not helping you, a lot of church orginizations and non profit groups offer support groups and other services. there is an old saying and i am not that much of a church goer, but here it is "the Good Lord will not give you any more than you can handle" so stew on that before you decide to punch your own ticket. Besides you never know what you will miss out on. I thought my whole life sucked, I was a failure at everything, married only a few months and it was already failing, dropped out of college, etc,etc.. I had a cousin who killed himself, I went to his funeral, and saw him lying there with the side of his face missing, and all his friends, and family crying and asking why did he do it he was so loved. also suicide is a mortal sin and earns you a one way ticket to hell, you know forever damned, lake of fire, demons tormenting you for eternity. do suck it up join a club or something, find some new friends, distance yourself from your family if they are pressuring you into doing something you dont want to do. go to church, you would be suprised if you quit being so selfish and looked around there are actual people out there who care about you and accept you for who you are.

Answer 5

after having suicidol deppression all my life,and being perscribed every drug under the sun for it,I came to realize that it aint the drugs that help,unless i changed the quality of my life.now,after years of self talk,i dont need anti depressants.in my case,i saw that i coundnt run away from me,and learnt to accept myself,and also that life deals up one disapointment after another.its just how we deal with them,is what defines us.i suggest that u start to change by holding your head up,even if you have to force yourself,which u will at the start 4 a few months.as soon as you realize that YOU are the most important in your life,the better off you will be.you are no good fir anyone else,until you are first good to yourself.a shrink can only steer u in the right direction,but only u can change the way u feel.u always have options,and if your family wont support u,you will have to detach from them emotionly 4 awhile,until u have gained confidence.then u will probobly see that they are struggling with problems of their own.life is tough 4 us all my freind,and i will end now with,"GOD,GIVE ME THE STRENGTH TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CANNOT CHANGE,THE COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS I CAN,AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE".I wish u well,keep your chin up.

Answer 6

I don't have any pat answers for you. Many people don't understand that depression is a physical condition which affects your mental and emotional ability to function normally. The brain is an organ, just like your kidneys, heart and lungs. If one had trouble with any other organ, they would take medicine for it. Unfortunately, many people think a depressed person can "snap themselves out of it". This is not the case with clinical depression. I have a couple of relatives who suffers from depression, so I can give you the perspective. from your family and friends point of view.
We live in constant worry that the depressed person, whom we love, is going to kill themselves. If that happens our world will fall apart. At first, we try to do all we can to help them, and it seems to work for awhile, but gradually they go back to what they were doing before, or not even try to follow the doctor's orders. They think they can kick it themselves, in spite of what all the "experts" say. They go through ups and downs, and we are on the roller coaster with them with our hands tied behind our backs, because until they see what they are inflicitng on themselves, there is really nothing we can do. Therefore, in order not to go insane with worry, we have to back off of it, for our own emotional welfare. It seems no matter what we do, it isn't enough or they don't listen to sound advice. We can't force anything on them, unless they try to harm themselves or someone else. We hope it won't come down to that so no one gets hurt or dies. We hope and pray to God that nothing horrendous will happen. There is not a more frustrating and seemingly hopeless situation to be in. No matter what we do it seems to be wrong in someone's eyes, especially the depressed persons.
My advice, if you are willing to take it, is to keep taking the meds and going to the doctor. Don't try to harm yourself. I have heard suicide described as, "a permanent solution to a temporary problem." Keep looking for a doctor whom you feel comfortable with. He/she is out there, you just haven't found him/her yet.
In my opinion, suicide is one of the most selfish acts a person can commit. It is cruel.
I know you can overcome this, in spite of how hard I am sure it is for you. My prayers will be with you.
Best wishes

dont do it, seriously. Even though your family is not talking to you at the moment does not mean you should stop your life right then and there. Think about this question: Would you really end your life and ruin everything you have accomplished, not succeed in you dreams and just die, sin? would you really want to. I care about you. so does god. Find god. he will help you. I know he will. I will pray for you.

Answer 9

Have you talked to your Doctor about your feeling (this Issue)? I'm sure if you let him/her know they will tools to help you though this. Please try to cheer-up. God made you and loves you more than you'll ever know. He gave his life for you. Don't blow-off your life. Teach everyone a good lesson, LIVE WELL!!!!
