I'm so sorry you are feeling so bad -- but the holidays are not jolly for everyone- especially if you have lost loved ones, it could be very lonely. I can tell you that I have been where you are right now, and it was more than once, and you need to talk to someone-- call 911 tell them you need to be connected with the suicide hotline-- they are really nice people- people just like you and me that have "been there"-- they will help you deal with this right now---PLEASE CALL NOW--- you don't want to do this.

What makes you happy? Think of this right now- maybe it's a great sunny warm day on the beach with the waves slapping on the sand and sky is so blue there isn't a cloud out there and when you look at the ocean---you just get mesmerized by it's beauty-

please e mail me if you need to talk one on one--- I have been where you are--- I understand.

Answer 3

Yes I have. I went to my local GP and she sent me to a shrink. She helped a little but once my friends realized how sad I really was and how much I hated myself and my life, they were really supportive and were there for me anytime I need to cry or rant or complain.
It took awile because I couldn't take anti depressants cause of other medication I'm on so I had to work some things out and make possitive changes in my life.
Just talking about your problems can make you feel better. Ring a good friend or family member that will listen to you and be compassionate and talk about all your troubles. Have a good cry to. It'll make you feel better.
Don't think about taking your life. I did and I thought of how my friends and family would feel and that made my decision clear. I just couldn't do that to them. It's very painful to loose your loved ones let alone to suicide.
If you feel you can't go on anymore and there are no friends or family you trust with your problems, go to the nearest hospital. They will get a shrink to come and talk to you and they'll make arrangements to have on going support and possible medication.
Just remember a new year is about to begin and with a new year you never know what exciting things are about to come your way.
Good Luck and I hope your feeling better soon.

Answer 4

Yes regularly, I have been bipolar for 35 years, some bouts of depression are so deep that it seems like there is no way out. I am fortunate enough to have a circle of friends who have supported me through the worse. I am mediated and see a counselor, I exercise 1/2 hour brisk walk, plenty of water and healthy diet all play an important role. See a Dr asap, if you are seriously concerned go to an ER or be taken to one, give yourself time, even 5 minutes can make a difference when you are that low. Best wishes

Answer 5

I hope you aren't serious!!!
I was feeling pretty down about a year ago. I was having alot of trouble with an ex-mother-in -law and my kids. I was to the point that all I could do was cry and wonder what to do next. I finially decided to go to my Dr. and he put me on some medicine that really helped to clear my head. I honestly don't think I would be here today if I hadn't talked to him. It scares me when I hear someone, even someone I don't know, say that they are to the point that they could kill themselves. I DO understand!!! I am not saying this to make you feel better, I really do understand. I know what you mean when you get to this point. But trust me, there is a way out. It may not seem like it now, but there are people who can see you out of this. Talk to someone. I don't care who, just talk. I was to the point where going on another day seemed like an eternity, but I got the help I needed and now after a year I am med. free and feeling like I could tackle the world.
Don't let this feeling get the best of you. Believe me when I say, this to will pass.
Just know that there are people out here who care, even though you don't know us we are here.
If you need to talk to someone or just vent. Do it, everyone needs a shoulder to lean on every now and then. Trust that there are others who have been ther and will be there for you.
My email is [e-mail].
I am here for you if you need me.

Answer 6

Yes. I've had recurrent major depression for 25 years. Mine almost always occur in a seasonal pattern. Summer or winter. Usually only during my summer ones have I had suicidal thoughts. I made two half-assed attempts when I was younger. Nothing really serious, just a cry for help. But as I've gotten older I've realized that depression is very treatable. You just have to ask for help and often you have to experiment to find which treatment helps your depression best. For me Paxil works very well for summer depressions and light therapy for winter depressions. Please don't kill yourself. That's very selfish. It's like reaching in and ripping out the hearts of everyone that loves you. Hang in there. I know you're feeling hopeless now but there is help out there you just have to ask for it and work with your doctors and/or therapists.

Answer 7

yeah ihave been depressed. i think i still am. and yes i did think about killing myself. in fact, i rolled my car into the ditch. looking back that was the worst thing i could have done. killing yourself (or trying to) doesn't make anything better. it hurts the people around you and yourself. i hate doctors but i would recommend going to one. sometimes it helps to write stuff that you're feeling down in a journal or something. i have 3 notebooks full. even if it is just me blabbing about my day-it's nice to get it out

Answer 8

Don't do that you will go straight to hell or worst you might survive and be worst off than before. I prayed on it. Sh*t happens everyday. You just have to find a way to get over it. I used to shop or just sleep it off. But the most helpful thing to me is praying about it. I takes all wounds time to heal. I'm sorry about your situation and I hope it gets better. But suicide is not the answer and most likely the question will be taken off on the page because of the content.

Answer 9

Yeah .... pretty bad at one time, actually. Looking back I am glad i did not do anything stupid to myself ..... almost did one night .....

Don't think anyone cares??????

Not true ...... look at all of us who wrote back to you ... we will never meet, but yet we took the time to respond to you ....

some have said to pray. Well .... truth is .... it really works and that is how I put it all behind me ... that was a long time ago, now ....

still have problems come up ... big ones too ... but i eventually come back to the same answer I found back then ......

when I stop to pray and put it in HIS hands .... life is good again .... no joke.

Life goes on ...... it always does ....

soooooooooooooooooo ...... I hope that encourages you ....

if it is possible ... let us know how you are doing a few days from now ........ ok?

(^-^)

Answer 10

dont kill yourself
im depressed
and im on the fone
do that
ive thought of suicide and cutting
don't do it.
it is not worth it hun

Answer 11

yes, but the key is to focus on others and not on yourself.
Understand that it's okay to have bad days and that you are normal.
In fact, it's your imperfections that make you perfect.
Your family and friends would miss you dearly...think of others and dedicate your life to a higher cause...
