My story started when I went to high school. Everybody thought it was a fantastic place, well… not for me. It was a fiery pit of nothing. Nobody liked me and I didn’t like anybody, I was a loner. I was constantly bullied but the bullies didn’t realize they were bullying me. To them it was teasing, it’s not teasing when someone’s feelings get hurt. Then again being a teenage girl, it doesn’t take much to hurt my feelings. Anyway, I kept getting “teased” and one day I walked out of my classroom and ran into the girls’ bathroom. Unfortunately I was found by the high school’s guidance counselor. Ever since that day I ran out of the classroom, I have had suicidal thoughts. I have not acted on them, yet. I was found a couple of weeks later out side of the high school with pictures I drew of people committing suicide. No one was directly drawn in the pictures, just made up characters. That night I did not get to bed until five O’clock a.m. (central time). I was driven by ambulance to a bigger hospital. I have suicidal thoughts but everyone I’ve tried reaching out to eventually got tired of it. They started saying that “your depression is making me depressed.” That hurt me a lot, I trusted those people to be there for me and then they just back out on me. Which, in turn, made me have even more suicidal thoughts. To this very day I am still working to calm my anger toward those people who ditched out on me. I am also working on getting healthier, as in not having suicidal thoughts anymore. Anyway, the reason I am writing this is because I am having suicidal thoughts right now. So, to relieve that I am doing something I enjoy-writing-to help numb the pain.

Sorry but a lot of people aren’t really equipped to handle depressed suicidals, and it is insidious have you ever noticed that where one person commits or even attempts others tend to spiral? It’s not fair to you or them to make them your “savior” because what ultimately happens (as you’ve experienced) is it deflates leaving you both worse off.
And btw, there are very few people on here who found high school to be the best years ever.
I’ve noticed but I was actually referring to the people at my school saying that it’s the best thing ever. But thanks for the input.
your icon thing looks like sonic. But anyways, Thank you for for your story. A lot of people don’t understand what it’s like to be suicidal. They don’t understand. Maybe you can learn to forgive them one day. They just didn’t know how to help you.
You seem like a beautiful person 🙂
How long has it been since that day?
I’m glad you’re working to calm your anger and have fewer suicidal thoughts. Keep working on your thoughts. It sounds like they’ve made some painful situations a lot worse. It happens to all of us. I deeply understand what that’s like.
Keep writing, m’dear. :*
Thank you darkwillow. It’s been about a year but sometimes my thoughts get really bad, Trix.
