So this is probably going to sound dumb but I’m extremely depressed over my recent break up I don’t want to go into details because I feel it won’t help. After my break up things began to get worse, I found out my grandma is very sick and is getting worse each month and there’s nothing I can do for her at all, can’t even see her. I haven’t been able to make enough money to stay in school and financial aid keeps denying me, my friends just don’t seem to understand my struggles in my life and kind of seemed annoyed that I keep bringing certain things up. I also feel like nothing in my life seems enjoyable anymore. I’ve been through a hard break up before and I’ve never been this heart broken to the point in which I’ve done and thought terrible things. These past two weeks I’ve been on and off hurting myself to ease the pain in my heart, I’ve also had thoughts of just not living anymore because I feel useless. I’ve been thinking of seeing a therapist but the thought of me talking to a stranger face to face about all my problems seemed kind of weird to me since I didn’t trust this person, plus the cost of seeing one is way too expensive for me with no insurance.  Right now I think I just need some good advice to prevent me from going to the point of no return.

u need to buck up and deal with it. what are u in high school? please. get real and deal with it. Coward. like really.
G4M3r9irl, this is a suffering young person, what are you thinking? That’s not how we do things here. Nor are we supposed to discuss suicide methods as I saw you doing on another thread.
Please don’t make me shout at you!
Danoymous, I suggest you totally ignore the above comment.
I’m sorry you’re going through all of this Danoymous. I’ve become distracted from your story by the insensitive response. Please don’t let that put you off…this is a good site, and many young people come here for some understanding and empathy in their struggles and pain.
I would suggest you read a few of the other stories here, so many of which are from young people. You will find loads of identification and not feel nearly so alone I predict.
Chin up. You’re a fighter.

um.. actually i believe it’s a place to share stories as said in the intro. So please, fuck off.
well dont dismiss people cause of their age, you are stupid to think only adults problems are hard. Stupid idiot, who writes a post on a suicide site titled ‘real problems’. Unbelievable
oh bc johnny dumped sally issues are worth dying over? please. Get over yourself. Yeah, that is not a real problem. that’s just drama. Believe it, troll.
Um, G4M3, did I or did I not correctly understand you to have called this girl a coward and that she should ‘deal with it and get over it’?
If I am mistaken please tell me how, and show me how your comment is in any way supportive?
I predicted that you would tell me to fuck off by the way. So it doesn’t really bother me…say what you like and get it off your chest.
Suicide stories. Quite right. That’s what this girl/boy is sharing. So why give her such a harsh response?
What’s your problem?

Problems that warrant suicide in teens are RAPE, DEATH, DIVORCE, ABUSE, ect. Your politically correct ways are not going to take away the fact that I can have an intelligent and genuine opinion. That’s what this place is for: it’s a forum. People on the net do not have to hold your hand and wack u off so you feel better. We shoot u straight, share stories, and make connections with some, not with others. There isn’t anything wrong with a tough approach.
How idiotic – I mean because you seem to have summed up all ‘kids’ problems with relationship issues, but there are kids who have been abused since they started walking. You cant dismiss them because they dont relate to you
Suicide is a cowardly thing to do. it’s when you have to escape bc you cannot take it- is it not? I support her in getting her life together, dealing with it, and then coming back to suicide and hopefully not reproducing b4 hand. It’s not a story, its a cry. Her situation does NOT warrant death.
Um, gamergirl, let’s get this straight and shoot from the hip as you like to do. You’re calling 1in7 a troll? Or me?

Actually I just might, don’t talk to me as if you know anything. I’m not going to argue with someone online bc you disagree with me. U don’t know my situation. My god how weak are you people, yes, please follow through with your wimpy ass plans bc i can almost promise nothing would happen. they are just venting.
How can you judge what warrants death. Its not cowardly it takes a lot to even get to that place mentally. It is selfish but not by the definition of not caring about others feelings, its selfish in the individualistic term of making a decision for yourself by yourself
neither of you are worth anymore time. GHB is a nasty club drug that kills- avoid it.
Suicide is the first thoguht whenever it gets tough, acting on it takes a lot. get it right. anyone can talk about suicide.
LOL, your time has no value so get over it
suicide happens when pain outweighs coping strategies, it doesnt make anyone a coward or selfish or stupid, you cant really have a stupid reason for seriously wanting to die because if you have run out of ways to cope then that is what naturally follows in any human. and @g4m3r9irl- her grandma is also ill, its been one bad thing after another, not just a relationship issue, and it shows they are not cowardly because they wrote a post here and they were not just moaning they said what solutions they were thinking about such as therapy.
at the person who acctualy wrote this post, try therapy, i know you have money problems but try to find a way, im not sure hjow the system where you live works, but it is important to tell whoever can get you therapy that you selfharm and are suicidal because it willget you help faster, hope things go well and im sorry some people have dismissed your problems, just know there are always those that care.
Suicide is SELFISH look at what site you are on and then please try to not be so stupid that i absolutely feel compelled to respond. I hope you dont have kids, hello America
Can I suggest you re-read ‘Read This First’? The ground rules of the site. Who’s it for? People who are CONTEMPLATING suicide or have attempted and are still here to tell the tale.
This girl/boy most definitely falls into the first of these categories. You are being judgmental gamergirl. At the very least.
Who are you to tell people what valid reasons are for suicide?
Nonsense.
Danoymous will be most confused if s/he sees the argument that’s taking place here on her behalf! Hijack alert…Zx
Check yourself into a State funded mental health facility. they will get you state insurance for three days and help you. dont kill yourself bc u were not resourceful. Also, check out local universities with Ph.D students doing studies on trauma, you can locate this on CraigsList – that is what you do. u try everything you can to get help, not sympathy and then if you cannot fix your issues, try again.
i hope she see’s it. not everyone is going to be sweet. that is life, u must be a liberal.
everyone is at heart
gamergirl-you might mean well but you put it across awfully. thats all iv got to say
Thanks gamergirl for inspiring this healthy debate…It’s instructive and interesting. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with having differing points of view. I just worry about tipping a vulnerable young girl over the edge by the use of harsh, ‘tough love’ comments that are totally out of context…
