I have been feeling like this for a while now, sleep walking through life with the thought of suicide as my only hope. Recently I have been planning something I’ve never thought of before. I’m 99% sure that this is what I want. But 1% is, shall we say, nagging me to get help…I suppose this is my pathetic attempt to do just that.
I need to end my life.
…help?

Don’t do this okay? You have so much to live for; and sure i dont know what may be going on or what could be happening but i believe you can get threw this. Just talk to me, i’m a random stranger and i won’t judge you for anything that has happened. Suicide isn’t the way, you have so much more to live for. If i could do anything for you or if you just need to talk, please try to talk to me. It kills me knowing people are thinking of these things, maybe your young or old but i’m 15 and i know that you can suceed in so many things. So please don’t do this. Email me or something please okay? nomnomkitkat@yahoo.com
What is your motivation for suicide. E.g. for me it’s that I feel like a fake, I don’t feel like me anymore. What is it for you?
Motivation for suicide? There shouldn’t be any at all. If you feel as if you aren’t yourself, as corny as is, make a list of things you use to be as and how you are now. Then ask your close friends; Because i had felt like that before and it really helped me doing those things. And i hope it can work for you too muspelhem.
I’ve been depressed for a few years now. There isn’t a specific cause to my depression or suicidal feelings. I just don’t see the positives to life anymore and I believe that death is a better ‘place’ to be than life.
Think I know the feeling. I’d give anything to recapture that sense of hope I used to have about life…
have to tried to get help of any kind?please don’t give up! sometimes antidepressants really help people,if you could feel better-would you want to live? your life means something! please don’t give up.
Im sick of searching for my ‘old’ self and the ‘positive’ side to everything… I can’t help but think that I was born to die. I belong in the dark, I belong in my grave. (I’ve been planning it enough so maybe it’s time to just Do it!)
And I’m currently on anti-depressants but the only thing they’ve done is made my persona more positive so I can hide my true feelings better.
sometimes the darkness can be lifted though. (with help) 🙁 i know i can’t change your mind but i just wanted to you to know that we care about you here and I wish you wouldn’t go through with it. 🙁 i understand trying to feel happy when youre not is horrible,i’ve been there too and it just left me feeling empty and exhausted. but I’ve noticed it seems like there are two kinds of depression,one where we have a bit of a chemical imbalance that is making us feel bad,and one where there has been trauma that has to be overcome. i believe both situations can be overcome,and only you know what it is in your case,but it’s just a chemical imbalance(really common) then i think it’s definitely worth it to get help and get your life back.they can help ou find medicine that will take away that heavy depression your feeling.
i’m sorry,just saw the common about antidepressants. i think it’s tough to find the right one. have you tried different ones?
oops. *comment.
I’ve only tried one; fluoxetine but there’s no chance of me being able to try any others till next year due to me being under 18. I really appreciate all the supportive comments. I’m hoping to see if I can wait out tonight and see what my gut feeling is first thing tomorrow morning, that will decide for me.
taking one day at a time is a really good idea,it’s how i survived. but life does have so many good things to offer. you are going to grow up and do amazing things.:) i just don’t want you to miss out on that. we’re always here for you! i think we can all get through our rough patches together and be stronger because of it.
antidepressants are tricky. i tried zoloft when i was younger and it made me a lot worse,but I knew it was a side effect from the medicine.my friend takes it though,and it worked miracles for her. they all effect everybody differently,something that helps me might not help you,and vise versa. if you think the medicine is what is making you feel worse,talk to your doctor asap k? *hug* you can get through this. one day at a time.
Hey man. Just wanted to add my voice to those wishing you all the best. I hope you can find joy or peace or both in life somehow.
Life is all there is. Death isn’t really anything, it’s just nothing.
Once your dead, your dead; Its the living that suffer. Think of all the people you’ll hurt even if you don’t think anyone will care, they will. I promise dozens of people will care and shed tears for you. In some cases you shouldn’t put others ahead of yourself, but in this case you have to be un-selfish and just think of all the people you’ll help and have in your life to love, who love you also and i will make you life more then meaningful. You have to get threw it, anti-depressants and maybe a friend or someone to talk to. You can do this no matter what, i really do hope you try to talk to me about anything that is going on. I really would want to help you.
I haven’t read everyone else’s comments so forgive me if I’m repeating things. You say you’re 99% sure it’s what you want to do? Then don’t do it. I was in the same place as you when someone told me something that completely changed my life. That 1% you have telling you not to? That’s why you shouldn’t. There is obviously something stopping you so you need to just go with it. Until you are 100% sure that you are ready to take your own life, don’t. You can think about it all you want, wish you would, but don’t actually do it. It’s a permanent solution. If you give up now, you’ll never know if it’ll get better.
