Answer 1

i've been in that place before. suicide to me always seemed like the solution to many problems. in addition, it meant that i no longer had to suffer the emotional hurt.

that said, i'm really glad that you are seeking the help of other people. please ignore the insensitivity from some of the other responses, as they clearly do not know first-hand what being suicidal is like.

the night is always a glaring time for many people in this situation. on one hand, it is dark, and the sun cannot provide that extra uplift that may keep us alive. the lights of the indoors cannot substitute, and even sometimes shock our eyes and our bodies into a greater sting. but all i ask is that you sit down, quietly, and do not think about anything and clear your mind. do this for yourself. remember, whatever happened still happened, and just because you can clear your mind of it does not mean you are forgetting or simply letting it go. but by being able to relax for the night, one can make a choice for themselves in the direction one wants to go. we cannot choose what happens to us, but we can choose how we respond. good luck to you.

Answer 2

I am sorry to hear things are rough for you right now and I know how that feels also. It has been a terrible few months for me and my family as well. Things always seems unbearable till you think of someone else tragedy, or loss and then you realize that things could be worse and just pray to God to get you through these times. We have all been in that position , a few times , I'm sure. Taking our own life is never the answer. Talk to a friend , neighbor or minister or even a stranger , sometimes just the releasing the build up of the stress, alone can be a great help, and to realize we are really not alone as we think we are .

Answer 3

I have been there and I felt like other people would be better off also, but that was my depression talking, not me. When I got on some effective medication, every thing seemed different.

That is one of the problems with Depression, when some of your brain chemicals get too low, it actually causes that type of thinking. When I became less Depressed, I no longer thought that way.

If you are thinking that life is hopeless and that there is nothing to live for, that is a symptom of the illness, Major Depression. I am 63 years old, my wife of 18 years left me 5 years ago when I became 100% disabled, I'm in constant pain that is not relieved by medication, I can do nothing that I used to enjoy, and no woman would want me in my present condition. But life is still worth living.

Yes, I was depressed as hell and wanted to die..Antidepressant medications have helped a lot and so has my relationship with God. I also found out who my real friends are.

Getting depressed is not an easy thing to deal with, you should get professional help and accept the help offered by others.

God bless you.

Answer 4

First of all, Suicide is NEVER the right answer...NEVER. There, now you have hundreds of answers left....pick one. Keep talking about your problems...preferably to people who can really advise you in a positive constructive manner.

Every person on this board has problems...everyone. And some of them are just plain overwhelming! But to not give solving them a fair try is cheating.yourself and all the potential you have to make a difference in this world. Taking your own life is a selfish act and a cop out! We can solve many of our own problems if we sit down with a well rested, clear mind. The others which we have no control over will solve themselves...one way or the other.

Today is all we have...yesterday is history...tomorrow is a mystery.....Today is it...live it well. There are millions of people dying right at this very minute and they are struggling to survive. You have been given the precious gife of life....accept it and say "thankyou" If you need immediate guidance call the suicide hotline...1-800-SUICIDE..God Bless..

Answer 5

Remember suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. I have been there. I know the desperation.Your life counts for something positive! call a hottline, call a freind, talk to someone tonight! When I was at that point, I didn't think I could ever go on any further and everyone would be better off without me. I found out different. I learned to look at what others had to deal with and learned I could handle what I had on my plate. By helpint others you will be helping yourself. I made it throuhg with comfort from a good friend and focusing on others. My answers I was looking for that didn't seem reachable were there all along, I just had to relax and calm down to finally see them.

Answer 6

By now I hope you have vented a bit of the frustration caused by all the difficult things that have stacked up against you. Not only has all that stress cut back your brain's production of Serotonin, but we've got a full moon pulling in one direction while the sun pulls in the other. This shall pass. But we all hope and pray that you don't pass away too. Hang tough. If you just can't take it anymore, open the phone book and find a suicide help line. They can say what you need to hear better than we can.

A funny movie usually helps.

Answer 7

Suicide may seem like a solution to you right now, but think about those who love you. There is no pain like the pain a parent feels when they loose a child, the grief lasts forever. That's something to think about. You can focus on the negativity that surrounds you, or you can focus on another tomorrow. Take one day at a time, and know that there are people who love you. Don't become an obituary, but become the person you've dreamed of. You haven't lived to your fullest potential, so get to it. The world is yours for the taking, so get out there and, take it! Best Regards! :)

Answer 8

The first time I felt like you do right now, I was only 19 yrs. old & became phycotic from depression because they didn't even have meds., I had 20 EST'S and was immediately cured of depression.

I then went 28 yrs. without any depression at all. I am married for over 40 yrs, with 4 college educated children, and I took care of my mom with dementia before she passed away. I am presently on meds once again but I ALWAYS look for the light at the end of that long dark tunnel.

You may be having hard times right now, but you will miss all the good times in your lifetime, if you don't get in touch with a crisis counselor right now..

Answer 9

so sorry to hear that you feel this way. have you been taking care of yourself, getting enough sleep etc?

things change.

and just like you might say, "I'm cold" when the truth is...your fingers are cold but your foot is hot and your arms are relaxed but your butt is tired of the hard chair...there are many many things going on in your world, negative and positive. You can only focus on a very few...and THAT'S the power we have, to choose what to focus on.

Someone loves you. Someone admires you. You've helped someone. You're talented at something. You have some kind of wonderful thing in your future.

Focus there.

And keep reaching out.

Answer 10

LISTEN! DON'T LISTEN TO ANYONE WHO ARE RIGHT NOW SAYING THAT SUICIDE IS A SOLUTION TO YOUR PROBLEMS!!!!!

It may be, but do you really want to end it? Please cheer up. Those idiots who are suggesting that you end it in this way are total bastards who do not have a slight interest in other people's lives. But I do... Please don't end it, I mean it.
God has given you life... I don't think he wants to see you depressed. I know, it's unfair! Why did God create us so that he could lead us into such miserable lives! I don't know that answer, and I really consider it to be really unfair. But the world, at least people like me who really care about others' lives, surely want you to be happy. Noone wants you to be miserable. I hope that everyone in this world will be happy, including you. I really hope that you will find joy in life....
Me: [e-mail]
Here I am to talk with. I will be happy as long as you are happy.
