I'm going to come right out and say it. I contemplated suicide yesterday.
I should've seen it coming, really. I've been in a downward spiral.
Please, before I finish, don't worry about me, guys. I've been seeing several therapists, and one of them has been giving me a medication to help with my depression. I talked it over with my mom.
I admit, I feel sick and scared of myself. I couldn't believe I actually even thought something like that. So I'm getting more help.
Still, I think it would be safest if I took a break. I don't want to burden anyone else with what I'm going through, and since I'm not completely stable, for want of a better word, leaving for a bit would be safest, before I forget myself and start thinking like that again.
I'm sorry for leaving, but I really need this. At least until I've gotten more help.
Luff to mah friends and Nerr-pplz,
MsDevin92

Life is precious, and there are people who care about you... I'm in that fold, and I wish you the best. Tally that up to one more person I know who's contemplated suicide... I'm glad you didn't act on it, and are still with us. Hope to see you again, I'll miss you!
And once more - feel I should say this again - I wish you the best. See you for now, Dev. |

What they said. I usually don't have thoughts about Suicide. I'm more pre-occupied with wanting to keep the family computer from getting dead, since it takes about more minutes than it should for the startup process to complete. I really gotta find a way to get rid of Verizon Online Updates, seeing as we got Comcast High-Speed Internet. |

A friend just made me realize isolating myself from places I have fun at won't help my current moodset...I think I will continue to be the obsessive Nerr I am. |

My guess: Either the pressure of waiting for Super Smash Bros. Brawl has finally gotten to them OR they feel that they have nothing to live for. |

Man, thats terrible. What has happened, that could be bad enough to make one do suicide? It's OK though, if you don't want to tell.
Anyway, I'm glad your better now. |

Really, suicide is not the best option. Life is precious but fragile, just like a little seed. If it dies, it won't give more trees and flowers to the world. Also, if you die, everyone will be sad and some even commit suicide too. A wave of sorrow will strike your friends and family! Think about them, and think about YOU! If people don't take care if their lives, we'll all be extinct. Think about what you will miss. Think about who will miss you. Please, don't try to end your fragile life. Tell someone your problems. You'll feel better after talking to someone. Your friends are for that. Talk to them. They'll hear you. I told a similar situation to some of my friends, and here is what they said:
| A friend of mine wrote: | Talk about the problems and concerns going through your head!
The more you keep it in, the worse it gets. Friends are usually very good about helping you to find ways of resolving your problems or giving you insight as to why you might feel a certain way. Don't be afraid to open up... so many kids and teens make themselves depressed because they think they cannot open up, or they don't want to open up -- and then poo poo it when their parents don't know what to do, so they throw their reluctant child into therapy which then only has a small shot of working.
(Therapy works better when you're WILLING to give it a go. And as SiLK said, there's not a thing wrong with going in. Therapists and psychologists have earned a bad rep, and I see so many kids go in and do nothing but disrespect those people trying to help)
If your friend lives in a college town, or near one -- they usually have psychology departments that have graduate students that work with people young and old for a very reasonable price (or at least probably cheaper than going to an independent psychologist's office). I was seeing a therapist while I was attending college, which I do believed helped me out quite a bit. She was around my age group, so of course I felt a little more comfortable about opening up.
Or, if your friend is still attending high school or middle school -- they definitely have counselors to talk to.
I suppose that is the biggest thing -- don't be afraid to talk! It might be saddening to learn that you are not the only one to be going through these feelings, of course it's different in everyone's perspective.. but you are not alone. People anywhere and everywhere are willing to step up to say, hey, you'll be okay! People care about you, even if you don't know. |
See? Now, don't try that again. I mean,
IF YOU TRY SUICIDE AGAIN, I'LL SHOW YOU WHAT'S GOOD FOR YOU!
Sorry if I was rude, but that made me a bit mad... Now, take a deep breath, look at the sky and then cry until you feel better. OK? Good! Now, I'd give you a hug, but I have no arms, so I'll just give you a happy smiley, so you look at it and smile too.  |

Oh, sorry to hear that. I feel like it's my fault or something. Sorry if I said anything on that board yesterday to upset you in any way. D:
Well, anyways...good luck. I had severe depression from 9-12, but I ended up getting all happy again once they took me off of my medication.
The medicine makes things way worse...they increase suicidal thoughts. But, whatever works, I guess. So...get better plx, and remember, if you ever start getting depressed, you can always PM me, because I've been through, and am still going through, the same things. ^-^ |
