Anyone here faced the risk of suicide before ?

Question

its a really personal question I know. I would like to know the reasons as to why you felt like it. I face the pressure myself - no getting work - I am getting bored of the same routine of not getting work.

Answer 1

I was so deep in depression and so ill from my eating disorder that I attempted a couple times...I had hit rock bottom and saw no way out. I was miserable. I had no hope that things were going to change.

I needed the help of friends and family, at the time, to help make changes in my life so I coold find it tolerable. It took a while, but I am doing much better now.

Sometimes a job change is worth it in the end!

Answer 2

I attempted suicide 6 years ago, I was younger mind you, but depression is the same no matter what age. First of all, remember you can't blame your mom for everything. You can cut her out of your life and dislike what she has done but the fact of the matter is you make your decisions now, she can't hurt you anymore unless you let her. BECOME something and let her see that you can overcome everything she has done to you. Have you ever read the book "A Boy Called It"? This boy was so severely... I MEAN SEVERELY to the point I could only read 2 pages a night or I would get sick. He wrote 3 books and has a family now and made something of himself.

My point is when i tried to commit suicide, my Mom left me in the mental hospital with crazy people, because she needed the sympathy instead of being there for me. I had to walk home 8 miles when I was released and on that walk home i discovered something, I was not going to get better with anyone's help. I started doing things I was proud of. I quit drugs and alcohol (to the extent I was doing it) I stopped doing things to temporarily feel better and just became better. I moved out of state and worked like I never had before. Once I learned to love myself, i found a husband and now have a 1 year old boy. Life is wonderful now and I am so greatful the attempt didnt work. The thing is, I dont thank my mom for any of this, I did it on my own.... but along with that I can't blame her for any of the bad stuff either, it's my life and I have to deal with the rewards and consequences all on my own. I suprisingly have a great relationship with my mom now, she's a good friend just not such a good mom. Good luck and when life throws you a curve ball, hit the next one out of the park!!

(sorry i only sent you 1/2 of that before!)

Answer 3

Yes,I have,my mom died though- felt I couldn't go on w/ out her. Your's seem to be a different kind of problem-you WILL get past this,finding a job. Not,EVER worth THINKING of that for that kind of situation , or any.! Mine was a selfish act(did'nt mean to hurt other's though, was in soooo much pain, inside)I was 30yrs. you'd think I would have thought it through more!! But, you really aren't thinking RIGHT!! Please, just pound the pavement & push maybe alittle harder? I know it's a clichae, But it WILL get better!! The REASON was pain & Maybe change your routine a bit?? Do something differently??

Answer 4

well i understand what you feel. i had alot of problems in my family and i felt as though nothing was going right which it wasn't so i contemplated suicide and would have tried but when i was about to go through with it all i could see was my families eyes and i realized that they needed me and for me to even think about killing myself would be selfish . But after i came to grips with my situation i tried even harder to get my family back on the right track and honestly, never again will i ever meditate on suicide again. the way i see it, God wants us to live a prosperous life, but its up to us to take what we have and use to our advantage. in your case i believe the reason you don't have a job right now is because God doesn't like the jobs your applying for .if anything he's doing you a favor and keeping you from even greater disaster. Just look at this time as a lesson on what type of person God wants to be and also to only go for the higherthings in life, cause in the long run thats just what your gonna have; no excuses.

Answer 5

Like the other girl said see a doc. I have faced suicidal thoughts for the past 5 or so months. My doctor and therapist have really helped me especially pull through the weekends when it gets really hard. My doc is pro active so she knows when its time for me to go into the hospital or not. Find someone to tell this all to so you are not isolating.

Answer 6

Yes I did... Years ago.

Poor diet, poor nutrition, drug abuse & alcoholism that I used to deal with my mental health situation, self loathing, always trying to make everyone else happy, dishonesty with myself and my condition, shitty parenting and its residule effects, poor choices that took over my life because I was tired of fighting, tired of hurting, tired of making and burying myself out from under the effects of all of my many mistakes and tired of being alive as a result... Sometimes it just feels easier to not feel anything at all.

You name it... I had it, experienced it, tried it to make it better and fortunately lived through it and overcame it...

When I say things to the people on here... It isin't coming out of my a*ss...

I honestly do know where of I speak. Via EXPERIENCE! Not just guessing and textbook distanced psycho babble.

Answer 7

I have. You should really talk to someone. I wish I could give you a big hug!! sometimes when people get to that point in there lives its because they feel like they are alone but your not. You have me;) So your not alone. You can email me if you would like. I am here for you.

Answer 8

I have thought about it before, but I remembered that everything has it's way of working out. No matter what you may be going through, it WILL work out. Life can definately get tough at times and financial concerns can drive us crazy-trust me I know! What kind of work have you been trying to get? Please don't do anything harmful to yourself. It WILL get better!!!!!!
