I'm a moderately happy person. I'm in love, I have really supportive friends, and I have great artistic outlets for my emotions, but for some reason I keep having these reoccurring thoughts of suicide. Every time I sit by my window I think of diving headfirst into the driveway three stories below. I don't know what to think of it. Is this normal?
twynelyne answered Monday December 27 2004, 2:03 am: well the thoughts are normal yes, but don't do it!
lol
we all love u and know that u are so much better than the rest of the world.
find that confidence inside yourself and shock the heck out of everyone (in a non-suicidal kind of way) [ twynelyne's advice column | Ask twynelyne A Question ]
marchingbandbaby answered Monday December 27 2004, 12:22 am: i've thought about suicide before, and then I thought about what I would be leaving behind, and I got myself out of it. THere are other ways to deal with being low. Punch a teddy bear, scream into a pillow. or if you want the rush of falling, go sky diving, or if it weren't winter, find a high dive and dive off.

lollypopgurl769 answered Saturday December 25 2004, 11:13 pm: i can totally relate. just advice, don't go through it. i've been feeling down lately, i have a lot of stress at home and i just break down and cry my eyes off and think about suicide. but then you think about it, a week later or so on and you realize, thank God I didn't do something. are you stressed out? worried about something? any problems? just believe me, hold on. things will get better. those thoughts, well ignore them as much as you can. and for everyone else out there dealing with suicide pressure, remember its not worth it. i mean think about how your friends, family, relatives will think? how would you feel if someone you know/care about committed suicide? if its just random thoughts that keep occuring, i'd suggest visiting a counselor. well goodluck, tell me how it all goes. if you needmore help, feel free to drop one in my inbox anythime!

MeadowLark answered Saturday December 25 2004, 9:40 pm: If you see your life as a happy life and your thinking about suicide, then maybe you need to start thinking about those great things in your life that would prevent you from comitting suicide, otherwise maybe your just curious about death or pain or something maybe.

mojostar answered Saturday December 25 2004, 9:13 pm: its probably just a phase, but you should talk to some one about it, it might be a good idear not to tell your friend first(thats if you wish to tell them) but some who you know wont tell any one.
good luck [ mojostar's advice column | Ask mojostar A Question ]
AdInA answered Saturday December 25 2004, 6:36 pm: it is normal in a way.. everyone feels upset like that even if you are one of the luckiest/happiest people on earth. it's all because you are growing up and just getting used to the new enviroment around you. your new life. little things may seem like big things! just learn to look at the good side of things.. all the stuff that makes you happy! and remember.. you aren't alone! i know everyone has felt like that atleast once!

babeoriental answered Saturday December 25 2004, 3:01 pm: maybe the reason your having these thoughts is becuase something bad has happened to you in the past but you just don't kno what. and its making you think of suicide. but if you can talk to a professional and knows about these sort of things. or just tell someone you trust the most and maybe they can help you out.

Karen answered Saturday December 25 2004, 1:07 pm: Yup, this is normal! It sounds to me that you have a great life! Try not thinking of suicide! Spend some time with your loved ones! Maybe you can go talk to someone like a councelor? A lot of people think about suicide! Hope I helped :)

cRaZyInLoVe6748 answered Saturday December 25 2004, 11:40 am: Yes it's normal. But it seems like you have a very good life. You wouldn't want to give all that up. Your friends and family love you. And they'd miss you alot if you decided to commit suicide. I hope I helped!

MyPainIsReal answered Saturday December 25 2004, 12:58 am: I guess I can say, that it is pretty common these days for people to think about suicide even though it isn't considered by the professional to be normal. But really, what is normal? I don't see anything wrong with it, as long as you DO NOT act apon it. I can't say that I've never had these type of thoughts along with many others. Perhaps you should consider some counseling so you can figure out what would make you think about dying seeings you are a pretty happy person. I would try staying away from my window if I were you. That seems to somehow and some way be a sorce of your problem. I think there may be a secret behind why you think about suicide that you yourself just don't know yet. Good luck with this.. need anything else just ask me. xoxo [ MyPainIsReal's advice column | Ask MyPainIsReal A Question ]
chica_chica_4_steve answered Saturday December 25 2004, 12:49 am: alright now....dont panic......your not insane.....some people think of things like that as either a final way to get somebody's attention or maybe in your mind you really want more love or just affection so maybe its a way for your mind to tell you that you want more attention......all i'm saying is dont let your mind take you over......suicide is never the answer.....anyways if you need anymore help just e-mail me...i'm here [ chica_chica_4_steve's advice column | Ask chica_chica_4_steve A Question ]

Solaris answered Saturday December 25 2004, 12:29 am: Yeah. Its normal. I have thoughts of this sort sometimes. I am as happy as I can ever be....A very awesome and loving girlfriend, good family, great friends, got money, goin to college...and sometimes I have these thoughts also. There iesnt anything to worry about mate. Just dont act on them. That wouldnt be normal....
NEVERLETG00 answered Saturday December 25 2004, 12:27 am: oh yea its def normal, i'm the same way, i'm pretty much a very outgoing person and i mostly have fun like all the time! but sometimes i think about it too, dont worry its normal. i'm pretty sure that everyone has thought about it and if they say they dont, they lie, cuz everyone wonders about death and what if they died now?. am i right or what? but its normal. x0 [ NEVERLETG00's advice column | Ask NEVERLETG00 A Question ]
icey0990 answered Saturday December 25 2004, 12:22 am: I think its normal..(espcially for a teenager) to be depressed for awhile and have slight thoughts about suicide..but when it gets kinda far like that...i would consider going to get help. You probably wont need much..maybe just a cunselor to talk to. You`ll be fine.. just go to someone professional to talk to. even the ppl who seem to have a great life get depressed..
