It was the stupidest thing that I ever did. No matter how stressful life gets don't take it out on yourself. Talk to someone about it. If you have a close friend talk to them about just make sure it is someone that you trust. It is normal to think about suicide exspecially for teens because they get so upset or if they like someone and they don't like them they think that its the end of the world and thats the easiest way to end it. Don't let this happen to you stay strong. No parent ever wants to go to their kids funeral. Its a parents worst nightmare. I hope that this was helpful to you and make the right choices.

1Born2Succeed answered Thursday October 19 2006, 8:19 pm: Life doesn't give you second chances. I don't want you to kill yourself but are you sure this is what you want. I know how it feels because my grandpa died a few years ago and my grandma got a stroke like four years ago and she her left side is all paralyzed. I don't really think about killing myself because I see no point. I have tried to cut myself but I don't have enough guts to make myself bleed with a razor. I just want you to know that their are people willing to listen if you give them a chance. Don't go to a phsychologist because they'll be all up in your face all the time. Just breathe and live through each day. If you feel you can't make it talk to someone. [ 1Born2Succeed's advice column | Ask 1Born2Succeed A Question ]
Bergy413 answered Tuesday October 17 2006, 4:47 pm: No matter what you do, don't kill yourself. You only get to live once, and you'll never get the chance again. I would reccomend telling at least someone about it, to get it off your back. Tell your best friend, your mom, school counselor, just someone. There is no excuse not to tell your family, or someone close to you. Fill your mind with good thoughts, listen to an inspirational speaker (Joyce Myers is really good), think of what is good to come in the future. Plan your weekends to be with friends, talk to new people, just do anything you can to get it off your mind. Please be intelligent, and don't waste your life. You've only been here for fourteen years, and its bound to get better. [ Bergy413's advice column | Ask Bergy413 A Question ]
sizzlinmandolin answered Tuesday October 17 2006, 2:00 pm: I would urge you to tell someone that is close to you. Even though it would be the right decision, I understand why you wouldn't want to do that. If you can't get over this yourself, you are going to have to tell someone, but in the meantime there is something you can try first. A good first step would be a call to a hotline. The people there are professionals and you would be completely anonymous. They should be able to help you a lot. A counselor at your school would be another good option. Make sure everything would be confidential before you say anything. I wish you the best of luck.
imagine2006 answered Tuesday October 17 2006, 1:07 am: ok first of all this is serious...i was in the sort of the same situation...but i took pills..after a while i started to think about suicide a lot and it didn't seem that big a deal to me...but it was. i od on some pills and ended up in a psych ward (there were cutters there). I ended up recieving therapy and it helped a lot...and i was the last person anybody ever thought to be in a psych ward. Though i've gone through it and i know you probably don't want to give your family another thing to worry about...but your feelings do matter. So if you ever want to talk..you can e-mail me superfizzysodapop@sbcglobal.net..i hit rock bottom and i'm still slowly recovering. [ imagine2006's advice column | Ask imagine2006 A Question ]
lboogie200 answered Monday October 16 2006, 10:22 pm: i know you probably dont want to tell anyone, but somehow thats the only way someone can help. talk to someone close to you. && look for advice through god and ask him to help you get through it and guide you

Th3skyisfalling answered Monday October 16 2006, 9:30 pm: Think of your dad, how rough he has it as it is.. think of your mom on how she's stuck by his side and got through it... and how she has her husband that has cancer on her mind..now think of them loosing their daughter. That alone would deeply affect your dad.
i've been there myself.. my gf cheated on me once with my best friend so i've felt bad too.
go there and think about everything..there are other ways out; you dont have to just quit on your life and on yourself. you can easily get through it all if you just learn to believe in yourself.
