is it still bad to think about suicide even if you don't think about actually doing it?

Answer 1

It's not really bad if you're not going to do it...now...if you -did- think about doing it...then I'd say get some help... x_x

Answer 2

If you are having suicidal thoughts at all, it is bad, not as in doing something terribly wrong, because sometimes it cant be helped, but wrong for you and the people around you that care about you. Even if you dont think about actually doing it right now, as long as there is that thought, if things get worse, your thoughts about suicide will get worse. I have this issue A LOT. And the best thing you can do for yourself and others is to talk to someone. I know it seems like no one will understand, and 9 times out of 10, they don't understand, but if you keep these thoughts on yourself, you will find it hard to keep living like that. I go through this A LOT recently. I won't give detail on why for everyone to see, but you can talk to me through email or messenger if you would like to. I know you dont know me, but im here if you have no one else.

Answer 3

Well it could turn out bad if you think about it too much. Even though you don't think about actually doing it, the more you think about anything the more appealing it becomes. So just don't do it because it's never worth it, life is a good thing whether it seems like it or not lol.

Answer 4

Yeah.

Well, no...

Well, kinda.

I know what you mean. No, its not bad. Unless you do it. But until then its just bad thoughts taking up good portions of your mind. Some of us have it cross our minds and we won't ever do it, but we are still normal for the most part.

I'm sure others posted like getting help or whatever. You probably know if you need help, but if you are like I think you are, you just probably think about it a little too much. So stop thinking about it. Simplistic, but that's what to do.

Answer 5

Yes. If you are even thinking about suicide that is a clear sign that you are depressed and you need to seek psychiatric help asap to rid yourself of these unpleasant and frightening thoughts of suicide.

Answer 6

Everyone has probably thought about it atleast once in their life time. It's not bad just to casually think about it.
But if you are planning on doing it then it's not bad or sinfull or wrong. It just means you need to get help RIGHT NOW !!! I'm not saying it's a good thing to do though.

Answer 7

Well your feelings are your feelings, There's no good or bad, but even if you find that these thoughts pop up in your mind it's very important to address it, figure out what it is that's making you depressed. I'd go speak w/a therapist to examine and help you w/your emotions if I were you. It would surely help and you deserve to feel better.
Ask yourself these ques--are u sad or angry over something? and why are you? what can you do to take responsibility for yourself in making yourself feel better?

Answer 8

Why would u ever want to think about taking your own life?Look at the people who love u?Those people you leave behind,will be the ones that suffer the most.They will have the torn hearts that will never mend!This is against all of Gods laws.Love yourself& others will love you back.Be happy for being happy is to love yourself then you r free to love others.........

Answer 9

It depends on how you think about it. If you've thought about a preferred method, it may be time to talk to someone. That's when you're getting too close to planning.

Answer 10

I think its normal to occasionally have thoughts about suicide, as long as it doesn't really affect you, or you think about doing it.
