There were many times where I was also considering suicide, when things got so bad and I'm 15, but this started when I was 13...so I know what you're going through, I can relate. It is the worst feeling to have like you're not wanted...don't ever think that you're not wanted or that no one cares anymore! Even though you always fight with your family, they will still love you and care about you no matter what! You have got to try talking to them...try to solve all the problems...tell them how you're feeling and that you need to go see a real psychologist and get some therapy...Hope I helped!
*Good Luck*
ps. If you still need to talk to someone, email me at stefana3@hotmail.com or you could ask me a question in my inbox and I'll be more than happy to help!:)

I've always thought I was alone in those kinds of thoughts. Just today, as a matter of fact, all I could think of was getting home to kill myself. The first time I tried it I was actually only 12, and I would've if my mother hadn't stopped me. I try to ask people for help, or to get people to notice me, and I know they have problems of their own, but Depression makes it that much harder for me. I'm not trying to say my story is more important here, or to make you even sadder, I'm just trying to make you realize that running away is not the best solution, ever, and that we all have serious problems that we choose to keep to ourselves. So, try to think of it that way the next time you think someone is ignoring you to make you feel bad or because you're not important, they're probably dealing with problems of their own at the moment. And no, you dont need a mental hospital, just some understanding friends like these advicenators. Talk to me WHENEVER you feel this way again. Hope I helped <3's

well i've had the thoughts before and a lot latey and the one thing that i keep thinking that is probably the only thing keeping from going throght with it is that there's so much more to life. you are still young (so am i, 15 male but there's a lot of stuff that has happened to me between those years that i wouldn't want to miss for anything) there's so many things you have experienced yet. it's kinda weird being a guy but i alway think of getting married and stuff. that one thing that i really want and is something i think about when i start to think about suicide. you also got to think that life is like a rolercoaster. a very unpredictable(sorry i can't spell) one but still a rolercoaster. there's high times and low times. it's always changing never consistant. so if you do get through this hard time there is sadly going to be other hard time, maybe every harder than now, but if you push through there are tons of good thing that can happen has a result. just hold in and remember you haven't lived a whole life yet, and there is always someone in the world who loves you (just to let you know i do believe in God and stuff but that's not what i'm talking about though God is very helpful sometimes) i'm talking about you mother, father, and sisters. you my fight all the time but when you really get down to it they deeply love you and they would miss you tarribly. you would be hurting them by killing yourself. a good friend is always helpful, i have a guy bestfriend and a girl bestfriend and i can tell them both anything(but i usually talk to the guy one a little more about the suicide thing and problems) i really know that feeling like you just want to end it and it feels like that the only way it can stop and nothing is every going to go right ever. but really i've been in that place more than one and if you can pull yourself out, life can really open up in so many ways. if you do have a knife and you hand and really are seconds away for suicide, before you do you should at least talk to someone, anyone. once there was this girl i met for about 2hrs and we just talked about our lives and problems and stuff and it was really refreshing to know i'm not the only on who's got problems. a girlfriend was seriously the best thing in my life, she made me so happy and over joyed all the time. but that's just me, that may not be the best thing for other people.(omg this is really long and i'm really sorry but i have a lot to say on this) there's a lot of stupid, meaning less stuff in the world but i believe is all worth living in for those singal moments of happiness. but yeah sorry again for how long it is. hope i helped.

Okay, I feel like some of the advice you've been given is great and some of it is misinformation. If you went to a hospital for what they call suicidal ideation, you would likely be admitted and have a physical and bloodwork done. Then you'd be monitored for about 72 hours to get a diagnosis and start medication if needed. You would not be put into a straightjacket unless you were an immediate threat to yourself or others and you couldn't calm yourself down. It's not like that at a mental health facility. You might be on a ward with locked doors. You would likely have a room with a roommate who might have the same problem or a different problem such as an eating disorder. You could have friends and family visit you if your doctor said it was a good idea. You would likely get treatment there and start a plan of outpatient treatment with medication, supervision, and therapy for both you and likely your family.
If you are serious about killing yourself, go to the school counselor's office and don't leave until you are seen. If someone tries to make you leave, tell them that you need to speak with a counselor right then and that it's a matter of life and death. Be honest with the school counselor about your thoughts, how many times a day you feel like you should commit suicide, what methods you have thought of, any steps you have taken (like stockpiling razor blades or picking out a place to hang yourself). Let them know if you've picked out a specific date. The more details of your plan you share, the more seriously a counselor is likely to take you. If the counselor tells your parents you need help and your parents do not get it, social services might be of assistance. The suicide hotline mentioned below is a great resource as well.
I know that if you were able to just cheer up and look at the bright side of life, you would. Most of us don't like being miserable. You need help beyond what a smiley-face emoticon can give. You have given yourself a great gift by deciding you want to live and get this worked out. Keep trying until someone listens!

Life is hard, trust me on that. HOWEVER, life WILL get better. It will not always be shitty. Life is what you make of it. If you make it crappy, then it'll be crappy. If you think positively & try to do positive things, life will be good to you & it'll be wonderful.
Basically, you need to sit down your parents/sisters & talk to them normally. Try not to argue with them. By talking to them, you could possibly work things out & make them better for yourself & everyone else. I'm pretty sure they hate arguing with you as much as you hate arguing with them.
If you're seriously thinking about this though, find someone to take you there. Get your parents to take you. Even though you may hate them, they'd probably be willing to get you help if you just asked for it.

I know life can deal a bad hand sometimes and although you and your parents always fight it doesn't at all mean they don't care about you. I think the first thing you should do though is, when you're in school next, is to speak to the schools counselor about how you are feeling. They will be able to help you deal with things further and suggest on where to go nd what to do from there. If your school has no counselor or you're not sure if your school does or not then speak to a teacher at your school about you wanting tospeak to a school counselor as soon as you possibly can (if at all posible that very day becuase it is very important). If you stress how important it is they will help you to do that and they may even ask what's going on so if you feel comfortable about talking to the teacher about it you should do that. Either way you'll be able to get some help.
Trust me people do care even when it starts to look like no one does. You just have to hang in there. If you feel you need to talk then I'm always around on the net so by all means feel free to get in touch as it might help.
If you really feel you can't wait until you're at school next though then you should immediately and now call up someone who can help you. There's the National Suicide Hotline (USA) who you can call on 1-800-784-2433 (visit their website for additional numbers sorted by states as well as information on them at [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)) or if push comes to shove then call 911 and tell them that you need some help and explain what's going on and how you feel. Just don't let this eat away at you and push you into doing anything rash because as I said, there are people who care about you and who don't want anything to happen to you.
Let me know please how everything goes if you can - will just be a comfort knowing you're okay. <3

I'm 14 and I'm the same way. You might not want to be checked into a hospital, because they will basically just lock you up (i don't know if they'll put you in a straightjacket or not) and that might not be better than the alternative of just being thankful for the things you have in your life.
So the truth of the matter is, it really isn't better to be in a mental hospital- i've come very close to it myself.
Do something that you enjoy, such as painting your nails or working out- that's what I do to get my mind off things.
I'm not wanted here either, but I'm fighting through this difficult time, and I know that someday I will meet someone who will want me and everything will be okay.
Just think- if you kill yourself now, you won't be here for all the wonderful things that will happen to you in the future- which is sooner than you think.
I honestly was going to commit suicide at 13. But just don't do it okay? I'd be glad to talk to you online.
