Yes, I have thoughts of suicide, so very often.
But, I haven't done anything yet because:
-My father cares about me tremendously
-I have a friend that spends almost all of her free-time with me, and I her...I couldn't leave her alone like that.
-Fear of dying (odd, I know)...What happens after death? It'd be better to go into death not feeling like you might be punished for it.
-Fear of living through an attempt, because there are some very nasty results possible from failed attempts, like crippling, brain damage...and of course the emotional aftermath that comes with it.
-This sounds trivial, but I have a lot of television shows I'm not done watching. And a lot of books to read.
I'm tempted, but I can't do it right now. I'm also very young (19), and I just don't consider it an option at the moment.

I am very depressed myself right now and have had suicidal thoughts at times. Everyone has these thoughts at some time in their life. I want you to stop and think about what your Mom would feel if she knew you were thinking of doing harm to yourself. You say no one loved you like she did, well her life had a purpose and that is you. You are still very young and will eventually find someone to make a life with and you can still have children by adoption. The first thing you need to do is call a local crisis center so they can hook you up with the help you need and deserve. Tell you aunt how you are feeling and let her help you get some help asap. You may qualify for help without having to pay anything. As far as jumping off a building , I think you will feel a lot as you are falling, regret and fear and then pain .

I used to try and commit suicide and I almost died. Thats before I was on the right medication. Some of the medication I was on made me out of control. When I think about commited suidide I think of the kids I babysit and how they would feel if I kill myself. Ive been watching them since one was a week old and the other was 6 months and now they are turning 7 and 10. I want to be around and see them get married and have kids of their own. Thats what stops me

Like many others, a friend of mine committed suicide, and I got to see the complete and utter devastation it caused her family and friends. I don't think her parents will ever be the same.
I remember watching an interview with a woman whose teenage son killed himself. She said, "He had the right to take his own life. I don't, because now I know the unbearable pain and never-ending guilt it brings others".
I guess I kind of feel the same way. I don't have the right to consider it as an option any more.
Besides, I got over cancer a couple of years ago - it seems sort of dumb to kill myself after that.

I always wanted to kill myself when I was younger from13 untill I was about 17 yrs old, but everytime I tried there was always something holding me back, the thought of proving I was here on this earth for a reason, and I still don't know the reason but I knew I was determined to keep pressin on, I figured that in the end all this pain, tears and suffering it would be worth it in the end. God won't put more on you then you can handle, and I know this from experience.

The pain of it. I couldn't think of a way to commit suicide without it hurting so bad. Also i thought that if i wait long enough my life might get better. I was right, it did get better.

I think you may think it for a minute then realize the damage it would cause, your parents, and and everyone else who loves you. Also Suicide is the fastest way to get to Hell. Somewhere i know I'd never want to be. If this gets to overwhelming for you please talk to someone a Physiologist, Therapist there are good ones out there Good Luck & God Bless you

My cats changed my mind. I was concerned that no one would take as good care of them as I do and they would suffer if I was gone. Sounds trite I know but it is true. Were they just my excuse for not going through with it? Probably but it was an excuse I hung on to like the perverbial life jacket thrown to a drowning person. I don't have anyone else who would miss me but I know they would and I couldn't do that to them!

I all ways thought about killing my self, until a close friend did kill herself. I then realized the pain and loss to her family and friends,it would have broken her hart if she'd been around to see it. Since then I do not think about doing that.
I focus on how things have gotten better in the past and it helps me see that tomorrow is a new day.
