Well, when I was a teenager, I had those thoughts too. And what I did to tell my mom was check out the book, "The Bell Jar." It's about suicide. Read it in front of her. If you don't feel comfortable with that. Leave it in your room for her to see. When she sees it she will get concerned and ask you about it. I read it in front of her. Actually I didn't really read it. I just opened it and acted like I was reading it. If she asks what the book is about tell her. And then go from there.

Go right now to your mom and ask her if you can talk to her. Sit down and tell her you are asking for her help. tell her that you keep having thoughts of suicide and that your scared something might be wrong, and ask her to help you. Tell her your not sure where to start, and you know that you can trust her. That is always important.
After that get into a Dr. ASAP. You may be a suffer of depression or aomething else. Good Luck, only the truely strong can admit when they need someone else.

I am a cutter, so I kind of have an idea where you are coming from although I never have told my mom. But what I would do is this, I would tell here that there is a very serious matter that you would like to sit down and discuss with her, and make sure 1st that you tell her that it is not that ur pregnant. Tell her that you came to her because she is your mother, and you need her right now, and you trust her to be there for you, because she loves you unconditionally. Then tell her that you have been having thoughts of killing yourself, and you think you would like to talk to a psychiatrist. Make sure she know that it's not her fault.
Hope this helps.

there is not any shame on inquiring for help even as cases are demanding. i'm particular your aunt, uncle and mom love you and decide that could be sensible you, so provide them of project. i imagine human beings have a tendency to judge those with suicide recommendations very harshly. From the outdoors its person-friendly to assert "pull your self together" and "be solid" and those myths may make you experience terrified of being judged or dealt with like a weak human being. although, everyone who extremely loves you'll instruct valid difficulty and somewhat of telling you "it truly is what you're doing incorrect" they could be sensible you to make certain what is going on and the thanks to experience extra perfect. So truly tell someone about your thoughts. Burdens and soreness is extra perfect dealt with even as human beings are round. in case you may't say it to their faces that is alright to jot down them a letter or asking to chat with the fellow you've faith the most in inner most. don't experience like you've failed everyone, only enable them hear you. you're entitled for your sadness. don't experience ashamed.

i agree with the other peoples comments..I have one that you can also use... write your thoughts down about what your feeling and ask in the letter for your mom or dad to help you.. you could call a help line or your local mental health center for help also you expressing your need for help is a BIG start...that's a step in the right direction... good for you... now take the next step and and you will feel better knowing that someone is there for you... good luck

Just do. Go up to her, hug her, and say, "Mom, I need to talk to you. It's really important." Be sincere and honest. Tell her you think you need to see a counselor or therapist because you've been thinking about suicide and you don't want to hurt yourself or your family.
This is really, really important. Please talk to your mom and take steps to discover how valuable you are!

There's 2 ways you can tell her. Via letter or via mouth.
