Creepia Posted November 25, 2018 Report Share Posted November 25, 2018 Suffered and been around it all my life, but I have never seriously considered it, no. I think it would be unfair on my loved ones and rather selfish of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple Rayne Posted November 25, 2018 Report Share Posted November 25, 2018 I've toyed around with the idea a handful of times, but I've only genuinely considered it once, during a very low, drunken moment in my life about a year ago. I'm in a better place now, mentally (probably the best I've felt in my adult life, actually). I don't think it's something that's going to come back, unless my life takes an unforeseen turn for the worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziggy Vercetti Posted November 26, 2018 Report Share Posted November 26, 2018 ^ Same here, lost my younger cousin due to suicide like two years ago. Still sucks to this day cause he wasnt showing signs of depression or other emotions similar last time we saw each other which was a year or two beforehand, I still feel like I shouldve asked more questions about school,etc and let him know Im here for advice about anything no matter what like I tell others in my life. Never crossed my mind nor familys mind that he would go out like that since he was so outgoing and full of joy I swear. Not one sign of deep sadness or anything.

Generations Posted November 26, 2018 Report Share Posted November 26, 2018 Today's a good example of a time when I feel like all hope is pretty much lost. But it's also not a suicidal thought. This is more of an open-ended hopelessness...like I have feelings that I can't force my brain to manifest. Like listening to your favorite song, and feeling nothing.

The Nerd Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 Plenty of times. But the love of my family and friends always brings me back. It's been a few years since I've felt so low however. I had a friend commit suicide and it was heartbreaking. Hell, still is to this day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 I'd never ever. I feel like even if you feel down and out, you should never give up. It's far too selfish to just think about yourself alone, you have family and friends who care about you. And it hurts me to think that some people would rather be dead than alive even if you have to go through life with some difficulties. Everyone just needs to stay positive.

Royal Nakamura Posted December 23, 2018 Report Share Posted December 23, 2018 So I'm going to get real here guys. Open the spoiler at your own risk. The past few months, I've reached my lowest point. With so many factors seemingly against me, such as college, personal life, family, and my own self doubt, my depression reached its worst about a month ago when I decided to try to end it. I wrote a note, then headed off to jump off a bridge. I didn't go through with it. I walked back home, questioning myself on what had just happened. I went to my therapist and it was determined that I have Clinical Depression. Still waiting on getting a medical examination to get medication, but I still think about ending my life daily. Man, its good to know you managed to keep yourself here and not go through with it. I hope youll be able to gradually recover in this situation, bud. ^ Same here, lost my younger cousin due to suicide like two years ago.

Yeah, I really feel like some people who go through shit are able to cover it up well. So its just tricky because you wonder if you should have asked more, but at the time; it was tough to tell they were suffering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to hear that, thing is even had anyone seen the signs and asked, the act of "everything's fine" becomes such a part of them that you'd still not have probably made a break through. Asking "what if" is a natural part of grief - but the real bitch about mental health is that it needs the sufferer to break through themselves as well - and as we know, fighting it is bloody hard work.
