I was told by someone that pretty much everyone considers suicide at least once in a life time.. I was wondering, have you?

Yes then I gave my life to Jesus and Jesus changed my life in a very good way. His love drew me to understand much of my sadness and he helped me to get through the roughest parts of my life. I don't know what I would do with out him.
Even those back in biblicial times tried to kill themselves. Job being one of them mainly because things got so bad for him that he wanted to end his life but God had other plans for him.
If you feel interested enough to read about the story of Job you can if you want? You don't have to if you don't want to read it.

Yes, unfortunately. I was depressed for a span of 5 years, all the way through considering and even partially attempting suicide. I'm so glad I didn't. I'm better now and I hope I never have another time in my life like that again.

Yes it is absolutely true that most people will at least think about it at some point in their life. This doesn't mean that you would actually want to do it but that you may just for a moment (or longer) think about what it would be like and wish you could lay down and die because it would mean the end to the pain that you are feeling. Even though this is natural if you feeling this way please talk to somebody about it. Don't keep it to yourself, nobody should try to deal with these feelings alone. Feel better and know that you are not alone.

I have thought of it, more than once. It all depends on what your mind set. Most of the time it's a cry for help and people just don't know what to do with their emotions. What you really need to do is look at what is bothering you and sit aside with someone that you trust and just talk about what's bothering you. Most people do this because they are depressed or feel like life is no longer worth living or that their life is out of control, so this is a way to control things for them, but suicide is never a solution.

It's normal under extreme situations to have these thoughts. The difference between the people who do it and don't is just that. some do it and most don't. It's like everything in life we may all have the same thoughts that's what makes us all the the same but not everyone acts on their thoughts that's what makes us human. So if you are thinking about it you are probably under stress and it may be a day or years but it will go away. I KNOW for sure it will go away.

Yup. Very recently actually. I planned the whole thing out too.
The thing that determines suicide is basically an imbalance. Not a hormone imbalance, or something messed in our brains. It's just an imbalance between our emotional pain, and our resources to cope with that pain.
It's very understandable that sometime in everybody's life that they'll run out of coping resources, or they'll be overwhelmed with pain. It's when they take a step back and look at their situation that they find out it's really not as bad as they think, or they find someone who wants to be close to them and help them, and that person becomes their coping resource.
I bet bonds form closer from suicidal people and those who help them then life-long friends :)

I'm sure most people have fleeting thoughts from time to time, but it never goes beyond a few moments.
If you've been considering it lately, please talk with someone. I read somewhere that suicide doesn't make pain go away, it only transfers it to the people who love you.

I haven't in several years. During depressions when I was younger I would think about it often but never seriously attempted it. I'm 38 now and even though I still have occasional depressive episodes I never have suicidal thoughts anymore. I guess when you've had experience with it you know it's going to pass.

Yes, it is pretty normal for just about everyone to think about suicide... As long as you realize that life sucks, sometimes... You just have to suffer through it like the rest of us.

I thought about what it would be like but I never considered doing it, just thinking about a different life, but I love my life and if things got tuff, my best friend dies, my father, my mother, then the only thing I could think to do is take depression medicine and smoke weed!!!
