These thoughts are not as weird as you might think.
Most people have them at some point in your life.
Trouble when you are a teenager is that you are struggling to develop a sense of self. This puts you in a difficult position. There is help out there. Go to someone you trust. Be honest about what you feel and why.
Feeling overwhelmed is common at this point in your life. As you move forwards you will learn different ways of coping with your emotions.
I have looked death in the eye, but I have always chosen LIFE. Right now, I am VERY glad that I did.
Get some one to help support you through this and find something that inspires you to live.
Dont live in sorrow for what might have been
Dont live in fear for what is yet unseen
Dont live for yesturday for it has passed
Dont live for tomorrow as it comes so fast
Live TODAY and EVERYDAY
Live the NOW in Every way
Live and breath and taste lifes pleasure
And you will find a lot to treasure

Hi, I think you should tell your therapist just what you asked in your question. You will not get sent anywhere unless you tell someone that you are of IMMEDIATE HARM TO YOURSELF OR TO OTHERS and if you do indicate this, you will be placed in a hospital for 72 hours, only to keep you and others safe, its just a standard safety procedure. If you don't have IMMEDIATE plans to commit suicide then you are not going to be taken away. You are not a whimp because you can't bring yourself to do it. The fact that you can't do it shows that a part of you wants to live and that's great because if a one part of you wants to live, than with some help the other parts will fall into place. I don't know how to make things better for you or I surely would try my best to help, but maybe the therapist will have something to offer you that you can use. I don't know you, but I swear to you that I care what happens to you, not for any weird or deviant reasons, but because no one should have to feel like you do, so if you ever want to write me and tell me how you are feeling, I will listen and won't judge you. Don't be embarrassed either. Best wishes for a better future.

Kassie Darling, please don't ever think you are the only one who has felt like this and that you are alone in it.
I, too have as a teen attempted suicide and self mutilated.
I have learned to pray and cling to God, my Savior.
You must tell your psych more and if you trust them, All of it.
If you don't trust them please find another ASAP.
I personally think you should go to an outpatients place in the hospital and tell the doctor All and I'm sure they would enter you into hospital and give you anti-depressants.
I relise alot of people wouln't agree with me on drugs for teenagers, but if it's between taking supervised medication or being found not alive or on other illegal drugs...!!!
If your old enough to try doing this and the despair you are in, then it's past time for just talking to a shrink who says 'Your a troubled teenager'.
Sweetie you must try to get into hospital, and go on the meds that are prescribed for you.
What about the people who have stopped you? What are they doing to help?
If you can't talk to them or anyone you know, maybe you could ring a pastor in your area?
I understand you to a large extent and believe you may have Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
Write it down if you like and tell a doctor a friend suggested that you might.
You need to find a good doctor.
Andy ou are better than feeling like this, you should be happy and laughing and ...being a teenager!
If you ever want to message me, PLEASE DO and perhaps we can share more?
Or I'll just listen if you like.
I have prayed for you and if you have the strength, please say even a couple of sentences to you Heavenly Father, who knows and understands you more than anyone could.
Shall keep you in my prayers Kassie,
Ladyeagle7

I used to have occasional suicidal thoughts as a teenager too. As you get older, you will realize that the things that bother you now will not bother you anymore. In other words, if you just keep living, life will get better after you become an adult, and you will look back upon this time and wonder what the big deal was, since your teenage problems and insecurities will all be gone by then. And you will be glad at that point that you toughed it out instead of ending it.

I was suicidal for a long time in my early 20's because I couldn't seem to pull myself together into one complete person. Like there was a huge hole in my soul where the wind would blow through and I couldn't seem to close it. I figured that I would just off myself and be done with it. Game over. I loose. No big deal.
One night I sort of bumped into Jesus by accident. I was looking for actual truth and found it. What I didn't realize is that Christians give up all their lives to follow Christ. It is just like killing yourself. I figured that I really didn't have anything to loose by giving my life to GOD. I wasn't to attached to it anyway. It worked. I have a new life now and my old demons don't haunt me anymore. I am now a Jesus freak and living in the middle of an old Brady Bunch episode with a loving wife and four children. It is the very thing I thought I hated. I love it. I want to experience everything this life has for me and when I am done. I go home to GOD. For me it's a no brainier. Best decision I ever made was to kill myself and get a whole new life.

Suicide is not what you want.. I think about suicide myself sometimes, mainly as a stress relief. I could spout off the same old advice, and I probably will, but.. please, for the sake of yourself, your family and friends, please do not seriously consider suicide as an option. Your family loves you, your friends will be devastated.. I lost my brother to a drug overdose and it is one of the worst experiences anyone can go through. Suicide is never a serious option and should never be considered as one, you seem like an interesting person and I'm sure you'll eventually realize that your life is worth living and there are things you are passionate about and look forward to. You won't get to experience them if you commit suicide. Find something your interested in and try to focus on that instead of the pain or sadness in your life.. try helping others that are in pain. You have a lot you can do in life, you have a lot to give to the world and losing you would be bad for everyone.

My therapist put me in a hospital when I threatened suicide. That's where you need to be. NOT because there is something so terribly wrong with you. You just need more intense therapy and anti-depressants. I was going through the same thing (except I'd just gotten divorced, my grandfather died, my grandmother had a stroke, I got fired from my job and I was a single mom...) Staying in the hospital until I could get the right medications and getting therapy beginning there but continuing after I was no longer a patient really helped me.
My brother tried to commit suicide last year. He only survived because a friend of his felt something was wrong and tried calling him repeatedly. He finally answered his phone because he really didn't want to die. That friend was able to call the dispatch office of the ambulance company to give the ambulance driver step-by-step directions to my brother's place. She saved his life. Everyone in the family called him to tell him how it made us feel. Kind of like intervention over the phone. My mom went to take care of him for a few weeks and now he definitely is glad he didn't kill himself. He's got a better job, better friends and is engaged to be married.
Things ALWAYS get better. You may feel like you're in the pit now, but it WILL improve. It always has for me and for my brother and sister (my sister tried twice to kill herself). You just need a great counselor and medication. The fastest way to get the best help is to be hospitalized. There is no shame in it. You have a problem and seeking help is the most important thing you can do for yourself and your loved ones.
It will get better. I promise.

Wow!!! You must have some great gifts to offer God and society for Satan to want to destroy you. He goes about seeking whom he may devour because you could be such a positive influence to those around you. Don't fall for it. Also your parents are human and make mistakes. "You always love your family, but, sometimes you don't like them". People are moved by emotion rather than principle and obedience. God only accepted divorce in scripture because of the hardness of people's hearts. Their inability to be forgiving and accepting. The teens are the hardest part of your life but there is light at the end of the tunnel. You must make good choices for yourself and your body because it will not only affect you it will affect all your generations after you. Your body has to last you another 60 plus years so take care of it. It is really fun at my end of life because there is finally self-acceptance and forgiveness for the people that made selfish and wrong choices that affected me. Don't worry be happy and be good to yourself. Do well in school also as you get paid according to how much you know. If you don't know much, you won't get paid much. Blessings and prayers are being sent your way today. Mmm(Mary,Ma,Grandmama)

awwwww....sweetie. I am sooooo sorry you are going through this. I wish I could give you a hug and tell you things will be alright. When I was young I felt the same way too. I think we all have had suicidal thoughts at least once in our life. Just try to think about things that make you happy. Suicide is a permanent thing. There is no coming back. Think of your family and friends who will be sad when you are gone. Try talking to your parents about this. Tell them how you feel. I will pray for you. Just remember, things are not that bad. If you ever want to talk, email me. :)

Well you have seen what everyone is telling you and I hope you take their advice. Imagine your mother finding your body and looking down in horror at her little child as your body lays there motionless. Your mothers heart you could hear breaking right in two. As she slowly gets down to just hold your head in her hands one last time wondering every second of the rest of her life where she messed up and why she never saw the signs. Your father soon arrives and his heart breaks in two as his mind slowly takes in what his eyes are seeing. He gets down on his knees and reaches out to touch you your mother screams at the top of her lungs "DON"T TOUCH HER!!" He draws his hand back not knowing what to do next. Soon the police arrives and pulls your mother and father away from you. They are so heart broken they both blame the other for your death. They will never speak to each other again. Your father turns to beer to ease the pain and latter losses every job he has because he just can't get over you being gone. Your mother attempts suicide a few times because she can't accept you being gone either.
I have seen to many teens and to many parents to know that suicide will relieve you of your pain but it will change forever the ones that love you.
