I'm thinking about taking my life. There isnt' enough space on this thing to explain the whole situation. I'm depressed over being alone on thanksgiving, i'm in the military and they won't let me go home or nothing, and when try to talk to people about these things on top of everything else, they shun me and tell me to not do it because "it would look bad on them". I already cut myself and like to watch myself bleed. Should i just go all the way and get my wrists too? The only reason why i haven't done it yet is because of one girl i love sooooo much, but it almost seems worth leaving her like that now......

Before you kill yourself, give yourself a chance. The military has some kind of counseling. It's usually always darkest right before things get better. I get depressed to and think about killing myself, but I'm glad I havent done that. Good things are coming I promise, you just need to be patient. Now do me a huge favor and talk to a professional. It's free for you.

Do you see how many people in here care about what happens to you?

Let me get this straight your going to kill yourself because your alone on thanksgiving. HMMM no shunning here. First of all you feel alone. If your in the military I find it hard to believe there is no one else in the barrecks who is also alone today. My son has a friend in camp penelton(I think thats the spelling) any way in california. He is sitting at Burger King getting it his way. He had just got off the phone with his girl friend who cried during the conversation because she misses him. Second he found out he now has leave until next tuesday which means he could have stayed home untill then. That sucks!! Do not let one DAY make you take your own life as for tomorrow you might have a 100 guys with you that may make you feel worthy to be here on earth and alive. If the only thing that keeps you here is the girl your in love with then think how she will feel that you have done this to her. By killing yourself you are being selfish and not thinking of all the people who love you and will miss you. They will have a guilt in there gut saying to them, why didn't he call, what hurt him so bad that he left us. Was it something we sayed or didn't say. Hey guy I guess what I'm trying to say is give it till tomorrow things will be different. Life does not stay the same so hopefully instead of being down you'll be more up beat. Hang in there, change is around the corner. Besides if you kill yourself you'll have to come back and do this life again and don't you think you've came this far why do it over. Call the girl and talk!!!! Call your family and talk!!!! Then tomorrow talk to your man of the cloth and see if he can't help you out with what is eating at you. He may send you to a Doc who could help. Good Luck. Put the knife away and call the people you love!!!!

I have had friends that have committed suicide, and it is so, so painful for those left behind. It's not worth killing yourself to make your girlfriend unhappy, though. Talk to someone (a professional). There is always a better way out, even if you don't see it right now. There must be some sort of counseling available thru the military, and believe me, they don't want you to kill yourself either, and if you get in touch with the right person or people, they WILL be able to help you. It is so important that you do this NOW, preferably tonight. Check yourself into the nearest hospital if you can't find any other options. Could you talk with any of your superior officers? You have already started hurting yourself, and it isn't that far from there to suicide, and you really need soem professional help. And if you think Thanksgiving is depressing, Christmas will probably be worse. Please, please, get help. Life really is worth living!

If u commit suicide u are being very very selfish l know it must b hard at the moment but ur going through this for a reason so try 2 get through it. You will come out stronger and wiser think of the people around u they will miss u soooo terribly much it mite not seem like that now but they will and if u take ur life they say ur soul floats around forever lost and u don't go to heaven so u will feel even more alone so don't b a coward be strong things will get better l promise

No, no, no! Take it from someone who has been there....I actually overdosed 2 years ago, causing myself to have a seizure and I almost didn't live. I am so happy that I did live. I know right now it seems like there is nothing to live for and nothing matters but no matter how bad things are...there is ALWAYS a cellar beneath (if you know what I mean). God put you on this earth or a solitary DEVINE purpose...he wants you to live and if you seek him and ask him to help you I PROMISE you he will bring to pass your heart and souls desires....they will become reality. This girl that you love probably loves you more than you know and to her...YOU ARE EVERYTHING!! You don't want to do this...seek a higher power, THE higher power and I promise you he will meet you half way! Don't give up....in death you will only find sorrow and a world of the dead that you will wish you never encountered. Good luck and God bless!!

Never mind this girl you love! What about staying alive for you!? I can't imagine what you guys are going through in the military, but you are obviously doing an important job whatever it is. Self harm is common, and very possible to solve. Get some councelling, you'll feel a different person soon. And remember when you hit rock bottom, the only way is up! Good luck to you.

It is so hard to live when you feel that way, however I know you want to live. Because you are on here reaching out. You already know love. I know you want to live to love, to be loved, to show others what you feel you are missing. Dont give up. As long as God has put breath in your body then there is hope, there is help. When people take there life it makes the ones who love them feel guilty. Family and friends live many years after wards wondering what they could have done, should have done, or didn't do. I know, my Dad killed himself, he was clinically depressed. I, too suffer from clinical depression and I have many times felt as if I no longer wanted to live. I am so thankful though for my life. God can help. Dr.'s can help. All who know and love you will help. So please seek help.

I think that killing yourself would be very selfish, especially if you say you love someone, you are not alone on any one day if you have someone you love in you life, when I was in high school I felt the same way and when I thought about how much my loved ones would cry in the event of my death, that right there would change my mind instantly, all of a sudden I had drive,
thats all you need to find

Im sure its hard for you during the holiday season but you have to think about all the people you will hurt. If you are depressed then you should seek help immediately. But dont contemplate suicide. If you commit suicide, then youll go to hell, and nobody wants to go to hell. Instead of looking at all the negative in your life, consentrate on the positive. Im sure you have alot more to be thankful for then you might think. God Bless.

You are not alone, I am here in Baltimore alone on thanksgiving, For about 4 hours I went to serve thanksgiving dinner to the poor, at a Catholic Church. To see the joy on those peoples face, and the thanks, they said to us for the food, and free clothing. You need to stop feeling sorry for yourself, and thank God for what you do have. For one I thank God for you, you are their serving your country, I will be ever grateful to you! Hold your head up high, be strong, we love you, But love your self more, stop putting your self through so much pain. You need to look at life in a different prospective, Try and make every day, a happy day, and you will feel better, about yourself, Learn to love yourself, God loves you!
