I talked to a girl last week for about 5 mins. it was like time stoped.
When i received the call she said nothing for a few moments, then she said “i killed him”
i unfortunately knew the voice, she had called a few times already in the past, so i connected the dots that she had killed her father who had raped her her whole life.
I didnt know what to say really. she then said ” im not scared anymore”. finally i convinced her to tell me where she lived. so i sent an ambulance and i went myself as well, even though im not ment to. but i felt like i knew her to well. i took her away from the house before the ambulance arrived, and took her to one of the safe houses.
thankfully her father was not dead, she hit him with a iron, but he survived. she has been relocated and he is under arrest for rape charges.
i now talk to her everyday and she is doing much better. she has always been strong, so i know she will survive this.
I am tell you this story because i came to this site when i wanted to die, and someone here talked me down and saved mylife.
Point is, no matter how bad things get, you have no idea how important you may be one day. so how can you take your own life?

Everything is always a 50/50 outcome, it either is or isn’t.
Fate is fate, if one is destined to live they live, and vise versa.
No one knows anything for certain where life or suicide is concerned.
I glad your fate turned out well.
If some people have escaped a fate of life long torture of any kind thru suicide I’m sad and also at peace with the choice they make.
This is site is a good thing, …. many people which end up here and do not understand suicide may think this an evil site which promotes suicide. I think not. This site propbaly helps more to saty alive than that end up killing themselves. There is no real way to quanitfy my belief, because when someone just stops posting, we do not know what happened to them. I just see alot of support for each others pain here.
This site is like no other that I’ve come across. We can be as open as we need or wish to be here.
I’m genuinely glad for you that you are really able to do good. It must be…fulfilling.
Easy. Because my life sucks ass. And I don’t care “how important I may be one day”. Just like I don’t give much thought to the fact that I “may win the lottery one day”.
Because there’s at least a 50% chance that I’ll make no difference whatsoever, meanwhile consuming enormous amounts of resources, creating enormous amounts of waste and all the rest of the crap that comes with the Western lifestyle.
So I saw Shakira got a star on the Walk of Fame. She told people to “dream as big as you can”. Yet another one of these people with a faulty logic that says: because I made, it, everyone can. Which is total bs.

I don’t understand any guilt trippin for the resources and waste we create.
The way I look at it, we were born where ever we are born and in which “Time” acient or current. Humans use things during our lives. It’s taht simple.
We can be wise about how much we use if we are concerned about the earth, yet I can’t see how this would have anything to do with a choice to kill oneself.
Humans will die out, it’s inevitable. No matter how it comes about, the earth will continue, and life will continue in many different forms.
A billion years after humans, there wont be anyone here to even care about our time here.
@ caucajun
I’m not guilt tripping.
I’m responding to Unique’s argument of “how important” I “may be some day”. By saying that I could just as well have only a negative impact on my surroundings. Who knows?
Anyway, that’s not my chief point. I find it retarded to suffer for decades in the vain hope of “making a difference” in someone else’s life.
