My only reason

by kamidaka 4/23/2016

written by kamidaka

I don’t really know how the idea came to my mind, but I’ll do it.

As many of you know, my life is a living hell, and yeah, a lot of people wonder how am I still alive.

There’s something in this world that I love with all my soul, with all my heart. No matter what happens to me, that little thing puts a smile on my face. It brightens my day.

And now, I’ll try to make something for that thing. The thing that keeps me alive.

I’ll have to give up on the idea of trying to leave again, because I’ll need some money. […]

Emotional And Financial Leeches

by HakunaMatata 4/18/2016

written by HakunaMatata

Malicious neighbour who always try to put us down and got away with their petty revenge in the past threaten to sue my family over our car Back Up Alarm. They mock and taunt us that my family can get a heavy fine, arrested, and owe them compensation money in return. The worst case scenario is that we live in between them and their in-law family down the street who kids are just as bad. They are like ping pong balls bouncing back and forth leaving the mess behind on our driveway.

Basically, they have been openly overconfident and obnoxious ever since they snapped […]

Hello to the World.

by InTheShadow 4/12/2016

written by InTheShadow

Hello all, please forgive me if my English is weird. It is not my first language.

Anyways here goes nothing and I am new here:

I have been wandering on Internet and seeking suitable suicide-related or depression-related websites. I stumbled across this website and had thought about signing up. So I did and started out by reading how others deal with their side of Depression and stories. We live in different places so maybe there are some alternative ways of coping stress-related or anything negative. I have been suffering from depression for more than a decade now and at times, self-harm for pain relief. I have been […]

Tired Of Being Tired

by HakunaMatata 4/10/2016

written by HakunaMatata

From Canada, living beside toxic neighbours has drained me emotionally and I feel tired of keeping up with their negativity. Over the past few months, I’ve been dealing with anxiety to depression, losing sleep because of them due to littering, vandalism and etc. I want to catch them in the act but now they pretend to be all innocent on the outside.

I’m tired of feeling the need to protect my family and watch over my home from these malicious type of people who intend to do harm/damage/provoke us with their remarks. They simply don’t flick off easily even after putting up a “NO TRESPASSING” and “NO […]

AN OPEN LETTER FOR EVERYONE

by missanonymous 4/8/2016

written by missanonymous

I know some of you might be into deep holes right now and some were at the point of their life when all they want to do is to break down and cry, or even die. Yes, I do understand because even I myself can’t do this anymore.. but I’m still trying as long as I can. That’s why I am here not to tell you that ‘everything is gonna be fine’,’get up and it will get better soon’ or ‘put yourself together don’t be weak’ because even I can’t believe that it’s all gonna be alright. I’m not going to tell you the words […]

Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing

by HakunaMatata 4/7/2016

written by HakunaMatata

I’ve suffer from anxiety and depression for months after my relative just keep telling me “not to worry and let karma do the rest” about my neighbour from hell next door. Things didn’t get better but escalate for the worst. He never listened to me to be about being careful about those people trying to harm us/seek revenge and it is always better to stay safe than to be sorry. I tried very hard to stay positive and always strive to protect my home from these sort of jerks that try to provoke us with their words, kids playing on our driveway, and petty revenge […]

Friend long gone. Other thoughts.

by Seneca 4/4/2016

written by Seneca

I live in a south-american country with lots of social problems. One of those, connected in a way to all, is poverty. I was born in a fairly wealthy family, not rich, but in a country were some some didn’t make enough to eat, certainly more than enough. My family didn’t live always as well as they did by the time I was born, and still lived in the same “low-class” neighborhood. In this neighborhood, lived a much poorer family, and my grandmother were friends with them. I was about 7 when I was introduced to the other old lady’s grandson, a kid older than […]

You are Never Alone

by AKB92388 4/4/2016

written by AKB92388

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share my story. My niece Anne took her life on March 30, 2015. She attempted the first time on February 10, 2013. I have no answers and we are at a loss. She left behind 3 beautiful young daughters. They are very strong girls but they miss their mom more than anything. She was the happiest person, but also the saddest. They always want to help others feel like they are loved. They made a suicide awareness video called “you are never alone”. They wanted to let others know you are loved way more than you could ever imagine. If you could, please […]

Healing

by jrmeador94 4/4/2016

written by jrmeador94

My depression was triggered 2 years ago by trauma.

Trauma can be anything to different people.

Mine was having sex with a random stranger. And for the first time.

My DBT therapist once said it takes a traumatized brain 18 months to heal.

In 2 years I have gone back to the trauma of hooking up for a total of 147 times.

I have idealized suicide many times. This included staring at an intersection of speeding cars, and a slab of marble 5 stories below me.

I have begged for the pain to stop for 2 years…

And I am starting to heal.

If you are hurting, […]

2 Years Later

by 13vida 3/28/2016

written by 13vida

Oh my gosh, I have been trying to remember the name of this site for the life of me! I’ve looked every where for it for the past two years and then *BAM* I finally found it! No, I just went back through some of what I wrote and I feel bad for my past self; I was not a positive person, but I know it wasn’t my fault that I was depressed. No, here’s what’s happened the past couple years – p.s. sorry for the long story.

My best friend moved to Arizona in December of 2014; I missed her like crazy. I went out […]

Why wait for death when we can strive for something we desire, come with me

by Wanderlost 3/27/2016

written by Wanderlost

Escape. That’s what we desire. Want. Who doesn’t need to be wanted? This is our shot.
The reason we feel so empty and vile about ourselves isn’t our fault, it’s our
environment. We are one and the same and we need to take steps to stay alive. That’s
why I’m leaving to roam the country, feel free and alive again…like I did before and
I’m inviting any of you to join me. All we need is each other. There is unity in who
we are. We may be the black sheep, the broken hearted, the crazy psychos. But we are
also the explorers, the innovators, […]

My love/goodbye letter

by CatchTh3Bus 3/26/2016

written by CatchTh3Bus

Dear Anon( u kno who u are),

I hope you still get a spark in your eye when you think of me. I’ve went through all my journals and there was a lot of things that I wasn’t proud of writing so I ripped out the entries I’d written that were penned in anger and I’m summing up the rest here. The things that still stick in my mind had the longest entries. Like the time we first met and the time we first made love; those two moments bring tears to my eyes and make me forget any bad stuff for awhile. I also have […]

Into the Wild

by secret me 3/18/2016

written by secret me

i was accepted to Stanford.

everyone is happy.

So why not me?

pressure pressure pressure

I don’t want to go to medical school.

I don’t want to live other people’s expectations, dreams, morals.

left.

Heading towards Oregon and I’ve never felt so free.

Ive been suicidal my whole life.

All I wanted was freedom and it was waiting for me right outside my door this whole time.

I finally listened to my instincts and went against odds.

The only thing I want to say to people who are unhappy- is just to do what’s makes you happy on your our own means.

follow your instincts.

Im free

and so the adventure begins.

Make it to Tomorrow

by DexQuietlyBreaking 3/17/2016

written by DexQuietlyBreaking

When you’re laying in your room not knowing if you can keep going, remember something for me, okay?

You are amazing and perfect just the way you are. Nobody is ever weak. You are stronger than you could ever possibly imagine.

You know why?

Because we all have a flame of strength in our hearts. It burns bright even when our hearts are badly damaged. Our hearts continue to fight for us so we should always continue to fight for them. The flame cannot go out until our last breath is taken. So, you are always strong. Just have to keep that in mind.

I know life can be […]

I Remember

by DexQuietlyBreaking 3/17/2016

written by DexQuietlyBreaking

I remember their voices as I lay there in the hospital bed.

Asking over and over why I did it. Why I took those pills. Why I wanted it all to end.

I remember laying there and for a split second I didn’t know. Here’s these people standing over me, tears in their eyes, and broken hearts beating in their chest.

Whether I were their kid, friend or brother, they all had a sign in their eyes that a piece of them almost died with me.

This is what I think about when suicide comes to mind.

Even if you want to die, you have to take a second to realize […]

Hey, You

by DexQuietlyBreaking 3/17/2016

written by DexQuietlyBreaking

Yeah, you.

I’m beyond proud of you for still being alive.

You’re strong, beautiful/handsome and worth the stars and more.

Never think of yourself any less than amazing.

Whether it’s a good day or bad day, remember there can always be a better tomorrow.

Keep hope. Be inspirational. Change a person’s world. Be proud. Speak loud. Never let anyone bring you down.

Love with a passion. Chase your dreams. Smile. Laugh. Simply, believe.

Stay alive, friend.

Bath Calls

by betterlife 3/16/2016

written by betterlife

When the bath’s drawn, the phone’s off, the house is empty… as it always will be… what do you do? When there’s no friend to call, no family in existence, no job to work, no place to attend, tomorrow, nor the next day, nor the day after, no car to drive, no health to live? What then? Cannot one simply slip into oblivion, forevermore? Isn’t that okay now? Finally?

I’m stalling. Why? Is there a man to stampede through the front door, thumping his chest with the almighty courage of one in love, to say, nay! Not tonight! This shall not be! Whisking me away in his arms, hair […]
