Suicidal Survivors

For those who have survived suicide.

Christopher Mccandless aka Alexander Supertramp

by HealingInHisWings 1/18/2014

written by HealingInHisWings

Many of you guys have heard about this guy… Â There was a book and movie written about him… Â “Into the Wild”:

Christopher Johnson McCandless was an American hiker who adopted the alias Alexander Supertramp and ventured into the Alaskan wilderness in April 1992 with little food and equipment, hoping to live simply for a time in solitude.Â Wikipedia

I admire this guy for who he was and for his ideals and adventurous spirit and relate to the guy. Â If you haven’t heard of him, see the movie. Â There are some lessons to be learned about self isolation and other things.

He basically starved to death out there, supposedly […]

Here is help

written by lma3932

I have been cutting the 8th grade which was 6 years ago. I have been hospitalized twice for trying to kill myself. Thanks to a friend, I haven’t cut myself since October 25th. Some other things I found helpful was “the butterfly project” and a crisis text line. The butterfly project can be found on tumblr and facebook. The crisis text line was really helpful though. The number is 741-741 (I have it saved in my phone as CrysTaL that way people who look at my contacts wont know)

I Failed at Suicide and Now My Life Sucks Even More

by Pbsmurderer 1/17/2014

written by Pbsmurderer

I made a post a post 3 days ago telling everyone in this site that I was gonna kill my self using the overdose method. I failed. Not only did I fail, but I missed work for 3 days and I got fired, how am I gonna pay my bills? I didn’t even go to the hospital, so I don’t really have any proof to show my boss. No one even questioned why I stayed home these 3 days, no one cared. Who could care anyways? I’m pretty much completely alone. Supposedly after a failed suicide attempt, your family and friends try to help you […]

I drank the last sip of wine, and set the bottle down. My medicine was failing me, my loved ones had failed me, and lastly, I had failed myself. Tonight was the night, I told myself. I had no desire to stick around any longer. I had only caused myself misery, and made everyone else’s lives complete shit. I was a heavy weight on everyone’s shoulders, a boulder, weighing down until I was dropped so suddenly to the ground. I looked at the fireplace and closed my eyes. I could hear yelling and screaming inside my head, visions of violence played out over and over […]

Still Alive

by toxicluminoth 1/16/2014

written by toxicluminoth

I was fairly successful in my attempt.I am seeking help but I am not abandoning the cool people here who have been supportive in the way that made me feel comfort.

I don’t feel any better today than I did the day I did it but I am open to seeing what the immediate future holds… and I guess that’s the point.

Might be losing my job though. I’ll find out soon.

“…Almost…”

by Lea 1/15/2014

written by Lea

Like the title said, I almost done it.

It’s very, very frustrating after 3/4 of the year I didn’t need any help, and now I’m here again.

It’s like over and over again.

So here’s my story!

One day I went home and saw that nobody is home. I thought nobody would be home for another 2 to 3 hours, so like always depression hit me on the right time. All I know I went to my room took my blade and just cut 1 long line from my upper part of my arm, so from my wrist to the middle. First it was painful just a sting, but […]

the unwanted part of life

by missqueen23 1/14/2014

written by missqueen23

All my life I’ve known I wasn’t wanted by anyone. I’ve been told by plenty, even the one’s that are programed to loveÂ you no matter what. TheÂ first time I thought ofÂ dying was when my mother told me that I was worthless to her that she didn’t wantÂ me. It hurt so much that someoneÂ I loved could hurt me in a mentalÂ way, I told myself that I didn’t ever want to hear those word again so I tried my best little girl anyone could be. It didn’t work. So I just would just stayed quite and stop loving everyone.Â As I grew up we moved allot to the […]

regret surviving?

by pillarofsalt 1/14/2014

written by pillarofsalt

for whatever reason your attempt was thwarted..do/did you feel at any point that being saved was the worst thing that could have happened to you? death was the sweeter proposition than life? I seriously feel that death is bad-named for no reason, it is life that causes the problems

Someone who was MORE shit out of luck

by HealingInHisWings 1/13/2014

written by HealingInHisWings

You know what makes me feel better sometimes when I’m feeling down?

Reading a true story about someone who is up shit creek farther than me. Â At least I have a paddle.

Adrift is a great true story about Mr Callahan, who was trapped on a rubber ducky life raft in the ocean for 76 days. Â Here is a link to the eBook download (mods, I believe the author made the book public domain at one time)

It doesn’t seem like anything has gotten better

by jacklee 1/8/2014

written by jacklee

I tried to kill myself about a month and a half ago. As a result, I was forced on a medical leave from my school, had to go back home where my parents make my condition a lot worse, and forced to speak to what feels like an endless amount of therapists and psychiatrists that neither know what they’re doing or care about me. I was promised a second chance after it happened, that I would get help, in my mind I thought maybe if I finally talked to my friends and family about it, things would get better. Instead, I’ve spiraled, I feel more […]

it isn’t worth it

by pillarofsalt 1/3/2014

written by pillarofsalt

another user – missmisery posted a quote which ended with “And yet nobody down on the sidewalk, looking up and yelling â€˜Donâ€™t!â€™ and â€˜Hang on!â€™, can understand the jump. Not really. Youâ€™d have to have personally been trapped and felt flames to really understand a terror way beyond falling.”

It was anÂ absolutely perfect summation of why we take that step.

I have failed my exams, repeatedly, and watched lesser people pass. This recent one pushed me over. I had given it everythingÂ because knew full well I needed to pass but as usual when I didn’t see my number up there. I gave up. this life of failure […]

A pathetic existence

by que sera 1/1/2014

written by que sera

There is an empty feeling that resides in my soul. I have searched every logical avenue to end this horrible feeling. I have been through hell and back, and as I look back the only reason I kept going was because I had meagre problems to overcome and each time I would succeed I would experience an acute sense of joy. I suffer from anxiety, depression paranoia you name it. Whether or not it was self inflicted from my history of drug abuse, traumatic events or my family history of mental illnesses or the potentiation of all of the above, this feeling is f*cked up. […]

Life Is A Sweet Lie

written by 13vida

Do you remember that feeling that everything is finally better? That you feel you have finally out ran the blade and all the pain? Tell me if you remember the day that you woke up and found that it was all a dream, that you never outran the blade or the pain or the scars? That’s how I’m feeling right now. I feel how all of my problems have been piled up so high that I can’t see anymore, that the weight is just too much. It feels like I can’t breath anymore, like my world is just crashing down all around me. I love […]

Thanks 4 the welcome-was intrigued and saddened by some of your stories-I wanted to especially thank you all for your openness-nothing like Xmas & the New Year to bring up the same old same old same old——what the hell is the point of meÂ staying 1 more minute on this benighted planet???? a burden to the Health/mental health/& social welfare systems – I am lucky enough to live in a country that provides that for useless people like me. the last month has been almost totally unbearable.
