Hey Hazel,
Don't listen to people who tell you that you're selfish. You aren't. They are. And the reason because they are is because they won't take the time to listen.
If you're in pain and you need to talk, if it's not too late, please read the email I sent you.
I don't know your story or what has happened, but I can do one thing -- I can listen. I won't judge you and frown down at your life. You've been through a lot and I bet no one has taken the time to just listen or even help.
In my email, I shared a part of my past with you. It may not be similar but I almost killed myself, too. I went through some tough times. I'll be the first to agree suicide seems peaceful when you're back against a wall and no one will let up.
But when you take a few moments, and you allow someone else to listen -- maybe not me but someone -- and you allow what's truly depressing you to be free, to be heard and respected by another, that's a lot more peaceful than suicide.
I'm here for you, Hazel. I'm here and I'll listen.

Not yet, I was about to do an Ian Curtis thing last april. I have cancer but I've been more concerned over having lost the one I truly will love forever. I want to die at the moment, but I'm trying to get my friends more used to the idea slowly. Besides that I'm hoping prayer may still bring her and I back together in each others lives. This gives at least time for something or nothing good to happen before I die. I could do things again to get rid of my cancer, but this time I want a real reason to. So I know what bad times people are going through because that and other bad things have happened to me personally. By what I was told, I've got about a year maybe a little longer left. I'd advise everybody to take time to evaluate if things are really as bad as they think they are before deciding they are first. Remember tough times before and see if this is just something you should get through to be stronger, and go on to better times. Talk to a real friend who does actually care to hear what you have to say and that they are not just pretending to. Someone who you can talk to about what you're going through who really cares, even if you have to find nicer friends. What some people don't realize is that people feeling bad to the point of dying, are not trying to be selfish. People feeling that bad are thinking of how they want their pain to end, not attention or pity. Although it is good to have people around you who care and nice people are that kind.

I am genuinely worried for you. I don't know you but would like to help. People don't know how to deal with a friend that wants to kill herself, so they joke or brush it off. They probably don't see anything 'wrong' with your life and that "you have a bad outlook"... Don't let this be about proving them right/wrong or having the 'courage' to do it. People think thatis the easy way out.
Can you name ONE thing to live for? Even if it is something as "silly" as wanting to read these answers, or if ther'e s a special pair of shoes you want to buy. Take things one day at a time. You will need to evaluate your life and see if you can change things you don't like. Please don't give up.
Find the courage to LIVE - that is much harder. At your age things were bad for me, too. I feeling badly about things, too. Now, I am back in school - still have delayed dreams and goals but am working toward them!
Also, at 26 you are at the right age to decide that you are capable of changing anything about your life that you want to. (I think that between 24 and 27 we go through some sort of life change and I think your feelings are more common than people want to admit). You're no longer a 'young' (teen/young adult) person but certainly aren't middle age. We're frequently settling into careers or deciding how to achieve our goals. Do you want a different job, different friends? Do you want to find a new job and move away from your current neighborhood/ town/ state? Look at life as an adventure to find new solutions.
If you want to email me, please do. You should be able to email me through this site in the subject put something like Yahoo Answer Posting. I have classes this morning, but will check them this afternoon.
Where (even what state) are you locate? I'm in California.

Honey this is not a question about how much nerve you have it is a plea for help. You need to think of the ones you will be leaving behind. We do care very much about you. We want you around a long time. someday you will look back at this and realize how dumb this would be. I will pray that you get the reassurance you need to go on. God is looking down at as we speak. God Be With You Always. Hug and kisses.

Wow hmm sucide how selfesh can you be? I have a question have you ever had someone you love dearly die? to sucide? It doesn't matter how bad your life is trust me your not the only one. Also chances are the only reason you put this on here is for attention. But heck if you don't get anything in return and you did good things then so what thats life. Your not suppose to get reconition for everything thats is just selfish.
