I want to commit suicide.


Question Posted Wednesday June 25 2008, 1:09 pm

I have been trying to kill myself sense I was ten. It never worked out right, either there was some-one to stop me or they found me before I could finish. I really don't want to live any more. But I don't seem to have the strength to go on. I don't want to feel this way any more. It scares me and each thought is stronger than the last. I want these feelings to go away. What can I do? Nothing ever seems to help me. I feel that my only option is to kill my self. I still WANT to live though! I'm scared that I might take this to far. Please help me, I don't think I can hold on much longer!

One of the main things that seemed to pop out in your post was an element of hope. I have been in that place that you are in and somedays I retrn to it. Although I cannot say that I know completely what you're going through, I do understand it. But every cloud does have that silver lining and a new day always comes. No one knows what is about to come around the corner but like a piece of music we all have a score in which our music is played. Sometimes the music will be cheery and others awful and meloncholy. But it is up to us, the musicians to take control of the music and play the song which suits us, makes us feel at ease. Problems do not go away, sometimes it will seem impossible to even begin to try to sort issues out and sometimes this can frustrate us and we feel simply out of control, and the impulses to do things can become so tiresome. But what we can do is learn to deal and cope with these problems because no one else but ourselves can do that. Life may seem bad at the moment sweetie but they won't always be this way. Please fight through it and know that you are so very special to the people around you and you have so much strength to come online trying to search for the answers through all of this. Hold on tight.

Don't do it. Something will come along someday and make you very happy. I had the same problem until I met my wonderful boyfriend. He practically saved me and makes my life a lot better. Something good will come along toi those in need so just stick in there.

Focus on all the good things in life (AND DONT TELL ME THERE ARENT ANY! I KNOW THERE ARE!)

If you want to live, why do you want to kill yourself? is it because you want attention, or you have depression? You should go to the doctor, because some people have an imbalance in their hormones, and the doctor can fix it.
I would really suggest doing that, and please dont kill yourself, there would be people in the world who would miss you!

I really hope that by the time I answer this, it's not too late.

Obviously, if every attempt you have made hasn't worked, there is a reason for you to be here.

God loves you, and He has amazing plans in store for your life. There is something that you are meant to do in your time on earth, and maybe that's relating to someone like yourself, and possibly saving their life. Who knows?

There are so many wonderful things in life to be thankful for, I pray that you can open your eyes and your heart and see the beauty in life. I hope you can find something that makes you happy and helps you to enjoy life.

I sound ridiculous, I know myself that life isn't always smooth-sailing, and it's damn hard to always look for the good things in life, but everyone has hardships, and there is someone out there who can relate to you and who understands your pain. You're not alone.

My advice for you is to stop considering suicide. Things may not get better for you tomorrow, or the next day, or even next month.. but I promise you that one day, things WILL get better, and all of the pain and struggles you have endured will be so worth it.

surferchick16 answered Wednesday June 25 2008, 8:18 pm:
hi I really don't know who you are, but please don't kill yourself. Everyone deserves a chance to live and it should not be taken from suicide. I know somethings may not be going well, but don't die. People need you to live. God does. Even when you don't think so, He's there. I wish I could say something that would change everything for you. Think about unborn babies that have never had the chance to live. Be thankful that you at least got the chance. Even if you do have problems, things will get better. Sooner then it seems life turns around. Why do you think the suicide never worked? Its because its not meant too, you don't deserve to die, someone is looking out for you.

LOL_x0x answered Wednesday June 25 2008, 5:57 pm:
The good thing is, you still WANT to live. You have a desire to be alive, and that's a good thing. You need to focus on it. Think of all the good things in your life, and just block out the bad. Forget about whatever it is that is causing you to turn to ending your life. Suicide is NEVER the only option. There is ALWAYS another way. You CAN make these feelings go away. You're already a strong person for having dealt with these suicidal feelings for so long, I believe you can make them go away. I really, truly do.


Next, you need to talk to somebody. A question about suicide hotlines was just asked, and I think it could really help you out.
[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
You also need to talk to your family. Tell them about your feelings, and be honest with them. Let them know you need help now. Ask them to take you to the hospital, where you can talk to somebody face to face. It's ok to have to talk to someone, they're there to help you and it WILL help you. You need to tell somebody, whether it be somebody on a hotline or somebody at a hospital, what you told us. You need to explain to them how you're feeling. If needed, print your question out and read it out loud. There's no shame in that.


Ending your life won't help solve any of your problems, but will only end up creating new ones for those who love you. Think about the effect it will have on those who are close to you. Losing a loved one is a really hard thing to go through, do you really want to be selfish enough to put your family and friends through it?


Somebody below said:
"Have you ever thought that maybe you haven't been able to successfully kill yourself for a reason? You are here for a reason, and there is a purpose and meaning to your life. No one knows what the future has in store. Yes, things could get worse, but they could also get better."

And they are absolutely right.

think about it since you have tried to do that at 10 havent you had some good times??? some time when you were really truly happy??? a time you couldn't enjoy if you were dead??? because once you do something like that you cant change your mind, you cant go back. what ever your going through it cant be that bad. what could it possibly be that its worth ending your life??? you need to talk to some one. weather it is a family member, a close friend, a neighbor, a teacher that you can trust. any body. you have to tell people what is bothering you. you cant hold it in because that may be what is causeing you to feel this way. just talk to some body. who even you feel comfortable talking to. one day your going to look back on all of the good times that you have had over the years and know you couldn't have had them if you were dead. no matter what you may be going through now its going to get better and hopefully you wont feel this way any more. and let me tell you this killing your self is just takeing the easy way out. your being a coward. your leting your enimies win. and i know thats not what you want is it??? be strong. i know you can be. just hang in there and remember every thing happens for a reason. you may not see it now but trust me one day you will. nobody said life is would be easy. but life is what you make it

please dont do any thing crazy because remember you cant change your mind and i know you have alot of people who really love and care for you. please do me a fovor and talk to them and if you feel that you cant you can e mail me.


if you need to talk to someone. and you cant find any one and you feelin like your ready to drop out of the race. you can always talk to me at babyiyitee@hotmail.com

solidadvice4teens answered Wednesday June 25 2008, 2:22 pm:
Why would you want to do something so stupid and selfish? It won't end your problem and it will cause problems for others who are left behind. Your problems are all solvable no matter what you think and no matter what they are. You just need professional help to fix your mental health.

You sound as though you have clinical depression or a worse mental health disorder. What you need to do is march yourself to the emergency room nearest you. Tell them what you told us about wanting to kill yourself for years and that the feelings have intensified recently.

A psychiatrist will assess you and determine what illness you suffer from that is causing this thinking and desire. They'll keep you there for at least 72 hours as you are a danger to yourself at this point. They'll figure out how to treat you and get rid of these suicidal feelings and tendencies.

Wouldn't you rather solve this issue than die? It won't be easy but it can be resolved so you never think of this again. That's better than death. Trust me years from now you'll be happy you got help and did the right thing. It's your only sane option.

aidenisfire answered Wednesday June 25 2008, 1:50 pm:
First, you need to talk to someone that you trust and get help. It sounds like you are depressed, and you can get medication that will help you with that. Also, talking to people is a great way to get your emotions out and talk about how you are feeling. Find things that you enjoy doing. Read, play a sport, paint, dance, listen to music. Find something that makes you happy and do it as often as you can. Hang out with friends that you feel close to and can trust. If you are doing things that make you happy and hanging out with people that support you and encourage you, it is less likely that you will want to kill yourself. Try and figure out what exactly is making you so unhappy, and if you can remove it from your life. Think about all the people that would be hurt, upset, or negatively affected if you decided to kill yourself. Have you ever thought that maybe you haven't been able to successfully kill yourself for a reason? You are here for a reason, and there is a purpose and meaning to your life. No one knows what the future has in store. Yes, things could get worse, but they could also get better. Ask yourself if you think you are feeling the worse you could ever possibly feel. Is the answer yes? Then things can only get better. I don't know if you belive in God, but if you do He loves you and He has a purpose for your life. Try looking into a religion and finding one that works for you. There are always people who are willing to help and support you, and who would miss you if you are gone. I hope this helped a little bit, send me a message if you would like to talk more.
