Thinking about suicide? Think about this
You've decided to do it. Life is impossible. Suicide is your way out.
Fine--but before you kill yourself consider these facts:
Suicide is not usually successful.
You think you know a guaranteed way?
Ask the 25-year-old who tried to electrocute himself. He lived. But, both his arms are gone.
What about jumping?
Ask John. He used to be intelligent , with an engaging sense of humor. That was before he leapt from a building. Now, he's brain- damaged and will always need care. He staggers and has seizures. He lives in a fog. But, worst of all, he KNOWS he used to be normal.
What about pills?
Ask the 12-year-old with extensive liver damage from an overdose. Have you ever seen anyone die of liver damage? You turn yellow. It's a hard way to go.
What about a gun?
Ask the 24-year-old who shot himself in the head. Now he drags one leg, has a useless arm and has no vision or hearing on one side. He lived through his "foolproof" suicide.
You might too.
But...
Who will clean your blood off the carpet or scrape your brains from the ceiling? Commercial cleaning companies may refuse that job- -but SOMEONE has to do it. Who will have to cut you down from where you hung yourself or identify your bloated body after you've drowned?
Your father?
Your mother?
Your wife?
Your son?
The carefully worded "loving" suicide note is of no help. Those who loved you will NEVER completely recover. They'll feel regret and an unending pain.
Suicide is contagious. Look around your family. Look closely at the 4 year old playing with his cars on the rug. Kill yourself tonight, and he may do it ten years from now.
You DO have other choices. There are people who can help you through this crisis. Call a hotline. Call a friend.
Call your minister or priest. Call a doctor or hospital.
Call the police.
They will tell you that there's hope. Maybe you'll find it in the mail tomorrow. Or in a phone call this weekend. But what you're seeking could be just a minute, a month, or a day away.
You say you don't want to be stopped? Still want to do it?
Well, then, I may see you in the psychiatric ward later.
And we'll work with whatever you have left.
I love you all LOTS

Well ok my brother got a girl friend about 2 monthes ago maybe and sence then he hasnt been giving me any time to spend with me well I am 13 and he is 17 and he use to do every thing with me until his girl friend 15 (I think)started to always go every where with him and sometimes Michael (thats my brothers name)is mean to me now all because of Katie I think (THats michaels girl friends name)Should I tell him how I feel or wait until they brake up or what he is driving me nuts!!! (link)
| |
Just tell him how you feel or jsut tell him you would liek to spend some time together before he goes off to geargie university lol I know this one ttyl Heather
|
|
OK here it goes. I go out with this girl and we used to spend time with each other all the time until i moved. So right now we r having a long distance relationship. Now everytime I talk to a certain girl she thinks I am cheating on her even when I tell her time to time again that I love her and I would never ever do nothing like that. She writes things about my friends that i don't like and that really gets on my nerves. Basically she doesnt trust me at all. Should I dump her or should I just talk to her. 13/m (link)
| |
Well I think if she doesnt trust you its not worth it I think you can find some one allot better then her

well i have a bf named josh and he is cute and funny but he always swears he says the a word and all the words you can think of. and he is only 11 and so am i. anyways my friend brianna has 2 brothers named brian and david and i have known david since kindergarden and now i think i like david. so my question is how can i tell my friend brianna that i like david and tell my bf that i like someone else. p.s. im only 11 and josh and david are too, and i rate high, and give me a straight answer. (link)
|
Well I think if you like David more than you do Josh you should go with David. You shouldn't be with some one when you like another person more. You should just tell Brianna strait up you like her brother its nothing to be embarrassed or shy about. And you should tell Josh that you would just like to brake up I know it seems hard but you will feel better if you are with some one you like more
Hope I helped

(ex: i color my hair, she does the same. i cut my bangs, she does the same. i make up crazy words, she says she did.) its getting really anoying and i cannot even joke with her about things and then she gets all mad. even my friends know her for a month and thinks she is annoying.

She always complains about not having a bf and i will never have one. and i cannot do much about. So what should i do be friends or not? (link)

I just got braces a few weeks ago and I have to get them tightened for the first time on February 1.. I was just wondering.. When you get them tightened, does it hurt as much as it does when you first get your braces on? Do you have to like eat soup and stuff again for a few days after you get them tightened? Another question.. My ortho showed me this special way to floss, but it's such a hassle. It takes forever to floss, and it's really complicated. Do most people floss when they have braces? Or is it okay if I don't floss.. and just brush my teeth really well? Thanks.. I'll rate HiGh! (link)
| |
It does hurt when you get your braces tightened but not as much as it does when you first get them on and I dont floss I just use a water pick that really works good and you can get them at wal-mart for like just 5 dollars
