Seriously. If you are a kid living with your parents, you are probably too young to off yourself. It’s hard to believe your life could be irredeemably fucked up by that point. Finish growing up, give it a try, see what happens…you might be surprised. If it doesn’t come together you’ll always have that option…give this sick world a chance. Some do find happiness here.
I see so many posts on here from high schoolers….

I understand your opinion.
But age has nothing to do with mental illness or a person’s trauma or experience.
I’m a 16-year-old girl. My parents abused us and were addicted to alcohol and drugs. Me and my two brothers were carted around the UK sometimes living with an abusive dad or going to women’s shelters across the country. We were put into care when I was 2, failed adoption a bit of cruelty and then actually adopted when I was 5. In the space of 8 years, I was sexually abused, physically and emotionally abused. My brother went into care. Family relationships crumbled and I was in care again by 12. Depression hit, I moved to foster home after foster home, tried to kill myself multiple times and then things evened out. I moved schools, have been living in the same foster family for 2 and a half years and I have friends. But in January, my mental health deteriorated. I had no idea that I had anxiety, I just felt depressed and out of control of my feelings. I spent the last two years focusing on me and school. I targeted straight As at GCSE’s, 4 A Levels and a Maths Degree at a good university (I like Warwick). But I’m at a place where that isn’t possible anymore. My future won’t be what I have battled so hard for. And I can’t lose anything else so important to me.
Alot of adults can’t even imagine what some teenagers have been through, rape, crippling mental illness, bullying – whatever it is. And not to forget that pain is relative. What you can handle is different to me.
Mountaingoat that’s your view. In teenage years people are supposed to be happy freaks figuring out so many things becoming things its a sparkling new life ahead for them. And you have to know that your judgement even your post cannot stop them from doing it. If their lives are horrible at that small age sure there are deeply personal issues pushing them to that point. I myself was that teen and many of us have written our long stories here being depressed and out of the world lonely and abandoned from ages as early as eleven. It is disturbing when kids have lots of friends normal parents and almost no such thing leading them towards insanity in their lives and they still decide to die but is death really depressing ? Is death really the end ? Is death really so ugly that even the thought of an adolescent taking their life makes us tremble. Maybe its for the best of them maybe they were born to die. This whole universe is moving with a force and everything is the way it is supposed to be and all will be the way it is supposed to be.. Young or old I think we should open our minds because I know how it is very hard to relate to them at your age or even comment on their posts but let it be they’re only venting and that’s okay. Young people should not be treated as a horror anywhere.
And I didn’t mention that I found this post ignorant. Being/life being irredeemably fucked up is not something valid only with adults there ARE children beyond fucked in this sadistic adult society.
Let the Universe just be as it wants to be.
Maybe you had a happy childhood but not everyone has that.
I commend you foreverton, you put it brilliantly
No problem. Thanks Daisy 🙂
Life isn’t easy and never will be , everyday is a battle, I hope we can be ok, like we once were…
everybody is struggling in diffrent ways. i mean maybe older people need to not commit suicide because you have freedom and can go where you please with out permission. see that sounds stupid. suicide isnt a age thing so you can throw your crap opinion out the window
I think this comment by noisefloor is the important thing to remember, right here. Depression/suicide knows no boundaries, respects no demographic, it is part of the universal force and it will do as it pleases, regardless of labels, social class, sex, or age.
“This whole universe is moving with a force and everything is the way it is supposed to be and all will be the way it is supposed to be..”
This is an amazing thought. There is peace in this thought, through all the tragedy it implies.
Brilliant.
Thank you chip. Your appreciation is very valuable to me.
