yeah, when I was going through some garbage inmy life, it helped to talk to friends, yes, but also people who had no idea who I was or even what i looked like. I felt like they would judge me less in the long run.Just try to find the little good things in life, I have tried writng down at least 3 good things that happened to me each day, even if it is something as trivial as some great food you had for dinner or finding something you were looking for or evensomething nice someone said to you...it helped me a lot because then i could look back at the good things that happened to me when everything just seemed to be going wrong...

Talk to a good friend, aye, but don't rely on them. And to the rest of everyone trying to possibly dissuade a suicidal person. Never tell them that people love them; that people care for them. I have been in that situation, and since my depression is very intense this time of year, I know now; it doesn't help at all. If anything, it makes the person feel worse. Just a little sage advice from one who should never be considered sage.

speechless, it is very brave of you to speak out and make your feelings known. It sounds as though you are going through a very difficult time in your life.

Please consider calling one of these crisis lines:
1-800-SUICIDE or 1-800-564-2120

Also, if you can, try talking to a good friend, a parent, a teacher, school counselor or other trusted adult. In any emergency, please call 911 or your local police emergency line.

Chill.

Depression is not something to play around with. YES, you CAN be depressed, but when you're suicidal I feel a dangerous line is crossed.

DON'T commit it. It does nothing, it solves nothing. YOU end up dead, your entire life ahead of you stopped abrubtly. Your family, your peers and friends, the people who know you, ALL are affected. No matter what you think, you are almost certainly a somebody that matters to someone else. Yes, it hurts and shocks them, maybe makes them wonder what they did wrong. But just think, you could be making them happy, proud of what you've accomplished.

Suicide does not start your life over again. It only ends what you have, stops any possibility of accomplishing more in life. No matter what, you are not out of avenues. Even a bum on the street has a chance to make things right. You, of course, have many more chances to start over than he does. Suicide doesn't start you over, doesn't give you a clean slate, it simply takes you straight to the end.

Want to start over? Then change your life, don't end it.

don't focus on everything at once, one thing at a time. don't overwhelm yourself, just try to find a way to vent (thats positive). Put you energy towards something constructive.

I m sorry i know how that feels.....try and see the good.


Hope for the best and expect the worst............take whatever life throws at you...

Unfortunately, psychologists are not free in this country. Until then, you'll have to rely on those you love, and those that love you. Not to mention those who've known you your whole life.

Just breathe. Block out the world and the people surrounding you and just breathe. Write poetry if it helps you, it does me. Take a jog, hell, write a book. Whatever helps, do it. Just not suicide if you're suicidal. Just breathe and live. When I'm depressed, I take a jog. Do whatever helps you cope with it.

If you have that one person in your life that you can vent to then go to them. If that still doesn't work than go to a shrink.

You need to relax-get away from it. Whatever "it" is, get away from it. It could be school, a certain class or student. It could be work, a boss or task you're assigned. It could be home, a sibling or something bad going on there. Stay away from these stressors for a little while. Even an hour. Seriously-you have no idea the wonders pure nature can do for your body. If you live in a rural area, take a short walk into the woods (after you tell someone where you'll be) and sit down and just close your eyes and relax for a while. If you live in the city or an urban area, try taking yoga classes or anti-stress classes. And if you're old enough, just tell whomever you live with that you need some time alone, and go somewhere you've always wanted to. Like the ocean (if you're southern) or the mountains (if you're northern) or to a certain field or place of any kind. I used to be really depressed all the time, but I would take an hour's walk out behind my house and sit and relax. Sometimes it would take longer than that, but the fresh air really calmed me down. You should also tell someone these thoughts; a parent, close teacher or friend, so they know what's up. Often they'll be of more help than relaxing could ever be.

Open the door and walk outside . Let the breeze blow . Look at those stars then at that moonbeam . Dont think about anybody or anything else . Do you really want to leave this place? If you cant deal with everything right now . Take your time . You arent going anywhere,are you?
This world is full of horrible people who do beautiful things sometimes.

Write every single one of your problems here. You'll not only feel a lot better finally getting them out, but you'll also feel good when you get a whole ton of advice about how to deal with them. Yes, it's true, we're strangers, but the having someone listen to you is the part that counts.

Yeah, take it one day at a time. If you're suicidal, write down a list of why, real reasons; not my-boyfriend-broke-up-with-me reasons. Then write down seperately the pros and cons. Who would be affected, who wouldn't care, who would benifit. Be honest with yourself. Don't wallow in self-pity. Take everything into account. Then, if you still wish to end it, write out a will.
