I need help bad...?

Question

I dont want to live anymore. I cant go to school and I cant hold down a job. My depression is everything. I'm not liked no matter how much i try. I feel if i end it, i will help 8 other people because im an organ donor and 8 people could live off my organs.. Ive been on meds for depression and nothing works, i think its time, ive sort of made peace with it. I just need thoughts on this.

I'm a 19 year old girl.

Answer 1

GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM IMMEDIATELY! Tell them that you are suicidal and need help. They will help you.

I have had to go there myself, I felt so stupid going there, but I would feel even worse if I had killed myself. They helped me and I was able to see a doctor right away and now I am feeling so much better.

They also helped me with finances, the mental health board of the county I live in payed for the ER visit, and payed for my treatment also since I had no/limited income, they also helped me with finding a job that was not so stressful, but pays well. I am sure they will be able to help you if you need assistance. If you need to just talk email me.

Please don't do this, please get help.

Answer 2

You probably won't be an organ donor if you commit suicide - for the most part, organ donors need to be on a ventilator and then be declared brain dead. The ventilator keeps the organs functioning even though the person has passed away.

Additionally, there would be a coroner's investigation, and that takes time, which also decreases the likelihood of being able to donate organs.

So don't use this idea as your emotional crutch.

First, if you really want to see who is suffering, look to the crisis in Darfur, go to your inner-city neighborhoods, in fact, you can go to a dialysis center, where most of the patients are waiting for kidneys. If you go to a hospital with a transplant center, you might find people who have been connected to machines for a year, waiting for a heart or a set of lungs...they've got it tough. These people are fighting to stay alive - and you just want to throw life away...be inspired by them, fight just as hard to stay alive and well...you can be an organ donor when your time comes.

Next, I would say stop trying to be liked by other people - the more you try the less they will. It's just a law of nature. People like people who are sure of themselves, like themselves and are always working towards improving their life in a way that makes themselves happy (not others).

My suggestion is for you to set some short-term and long-term goals, and slowly work your way toward them. Really examine yourself, maybe get a different therapist, and examine why you keep losing your jobs, why is school so difficult for you - and begin to tackle those issues.

Life isn't easy, but be grateful that you're young. You still have the chance to design your life any way you want to. If you can dream it you can do it - I sincerely believe that.

What is your highest vision of yourself? Well, get going girl, what are you waiting for?

Answer 3

I'm sorry you are so depressed. I know things can look pretty gloomy, especially in the world's current circumstances.

But....as you're asking for suggestions and looking for guidance that indicates to me that you are not ready to take such a finite step. First of all check with your health care professionals to evaluate your depression medications...some meds can acutally create more depression. See about changing the meds your on or adjusting the dosage.

I hope your outlook can change, but before you do anything drastic make sure to check with your doctors. A small change could make a big difference.

Answer 4

Don't do it. Call any crisis hot-line or contact your doctor. You're so young and you have your whole life ahead of you. I'm not a counselor by any means but I've known people who have committed suicide and it really hurt and messed up the people they left behind. Get help. Life can be good if you choose to find good in it. I know it sounds weird, but maybe try volunteering at a hospital. Sometimes helping others can help your state of mind. You might make some friends and see, too, that others have it worse than you. Good luck.

Answer 5

I have had the same thoughts. Even though I can't tell you things will get better, you will have to make it happen and only you. Go to college and make something of yourself. You might end up married and having children or being great in your career. Its so easy to give up but you never know what you can be until you try. And keep trying medication, sometimes it can take several adjustments until you find something that works. If you ever want to talk, email me.

Never ever put down on yourself like that. Keep going. Dont let yourself go. I am 13 and just had my best friend do that to himself. You dont know what the people around you feel. Please keep trying and if you get really serious, see a doctor. Please i am begging you, dont do it. God made everyone for a purpose, good things take time. Just keep going, turn to people you love for help. Just dont end it. Please. If you need to talk you can e-mail me. Or just AIM me with the same name. Please e-mail. Im here to help.
