Was there ever a time in your life when you seriously considered suicide? Not just a passing thought but I mean seriously. What made you feel that way? Who or what helped you through it?
I came very close about 14 years ago. My how things have changed since then.

Not to sound all "Dr. Phil" but I think it's theraputic to talk about it

Yep tried it many times!! What made me feel this way...abuse at home..felt I would be better off dead. No one until several years later and it was my aunt. My parents thought my suicidal thoughts were all in my head!!!

Many times I've thought of that from age 14 to 32. I couldn't stand myself and the way I did my family. In 1999 I was mentally trying to will myself to die and I ended up having a psychotic episode that landed me a two week stay at a hospital on the floor for troubled minds. I have since learned that I am Bipolar and a few other things along with it. I am medicated now and have learned some coping skills. I still have my moments, but I have a great husband that Helps me keep my head above water when I start to sink. Today is a good day. You truly have a reason to live now yourself.

Yup. I actually tried killing myself a few times. I was just really upset. My aunt had just died and she was the person that I could relate to the most so I was really upset about that, then I got a C+ at school, which is the lowest grade I've ever gotten so I was really mad at myself. I think it started with innocent curiousity. I had wanted to see what cutting was like cause I'd read a lot of stories about kids that cut.
My best friend got me through it. She always talked to me whenever she could to make sure I was still there, still hanging on.
Asking this question was a great idea! Talking about it really helps.

Not personally, but I have a few friends who have been really close to it. I hope I never get to the point though and I am very blessed I haven't. Life is very difficult at times but I believe their is always always a way out of that. I won't allow myself to become victim of my circumstances and as horrible as life may seem sometimes, their is always sunshine somewhere. I'm glad you weren't succesful 14 years ago, otherwise the world would have missed out on someone like you! :)

Yes actually. It was about 10 years ago for me and it was a friend that pulled me thru it(we have since lost contact) and I look back at the point and think how foolish it was. Ah, the teenager years!
