Having suicidal thoughts...again.


Question Posted Sunday September 4 2011, 10:33 pm

Are there any painless ways to commit suicide? I have given up on life and pretty much want it to end since nothing seems to go right anymore. If you want some back story then I will be breif. I am 22 and have attempted suicide two times and they were obviously failed attempts. The first time I shot myself in the chest and survived, the second was overdosing but again failed. I have tried changing my life around but to no success. I have no parents to turn to and I have no siblings. My friendlist is zero and well...I think this can only be fate I suppose. Can anyone recommend a simple method?

I am also a survivor of multiple suicide attempts. When I'm at a good place in my life, I am not suicidal and I don't ever want to die that way, but I always slip back into those thoughts when living seems impossible. I've done almost everything to keep these thoughts from coming back, but at this point I've given up on getting rid of them completely. Now, I focus only on keeping myself from going through with it when the thoughts get bad. I have a permanent folder of suicide prevention bookmarks on my computer, for my own benefit as much as for some of the people I give advice to. Here are a few of the best ones I've found:

First is [Link](Mouse over link to see full location).
IMAlive is an online suicide 'hotline' that works through instant messaging. All the volunteers are well-trained and it is completely free. I've been involved with the organizations who created the site, and these people truly want to help. They wont judge you or tell you to smile your pain away.

Next is [Link](Mouse over link to see full location).
This is an online version of the book Suicide: A Forever Decision. It is a thorough book written specifically for those considering suicide. It's not cheesy or belittling or unrealistic. It doesn't babble on about eternal damnation or anything like that. It is blunt and honest, and it is helpful. It helped me and hopefully it will help you.

Last is this page:
[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
It is a wiki page for suicide prevention, and has a comprehensive list of resources for people considering suicide. The link to online resources will probably help you most.

Of course, there are other things that would help you, like therapy and medication and friends. The first two get a bad reputation, but they can work miracles in the right hands. But I wont go into that here. I will say that your lack of friends and family is not your fault, and it is not fate. Bad things can happen to good people, good things can happen to bad people, and sometimes we can't do anything about it. That doesn't mean it was meant to happen.

Things will get better, if you give them a chance. Personally, I am resigned to spending my life bouncing between suicidal depression and 'normalcy', but the times when I am not depressed make the other times worth living through. I don't believe that when I am at my worst, but other people would always tell me that (and most of them weren't being idiots when they did) and I liked to try to believe it. And looking back after I have escaped from that place, I really do believe it. You can survive this, and someday you will feel better. Please, keep trying. Keep surviving. Someday you WILL feel alive again.

No one on this site is going to advise you on how to commit suicide. If you are feeling suicidal at this time call 911 NOW or go to the nearest hospital Emergency Room for help.

Suicide is not the answer to your problem(s). If you have not already done so I would like you to call the National Suicide hot line. There number is: 1-800-273-TALK (8255). They operate 24/7 and are totally free and confidential. They have a network of crisis center around the country they can refer you to for help, probably one right in your home town or close to you. The call takers are trained professionals who are volunteers and are there to help you; so please give them a call, they can and will help you through this.

Please call the hot line I recommended above. If you feel like hurting yourself before you can get to someone that can help you please call 911. Tell the call taker how you are feeling, they will send help. The normal response is to send both Fire Rescue and the Police. Do not be afraid, the call taker will most likely want to stay on the phone with you until help arrives. The police are there to protect you and the others not to harm you or arrest you. The fire rescue people are there to take care of you and to take you to the hospital.

You do not say what is bothering you to cause you to think of suicide. Whatever it is it CAN BE RECTIFIED or mitigated that I am certain of. Please call the hotline or go to the hospital for help. I know there are people who love you and would miss you if you were to do this.

If nothing else please remember this: There are people that love you. Five people who have never met you have taken the time to write to you to convince you that hurting yourself is not the answer and ask you to seek help for whatever is causing you to feel this way. Please call the hotline number I gave you.

Everyone has trouble in their life. Anyone who doesn't isn't living. It's human nature to get down about life, but it's part of our purpose to figure out what needs to change. What do you have to do to make your life better? Give yourself a chance to make a change. You know what, I have no friends either. That says nothing about my value as a person. Taking your life would be a tragedy. You are here for a reason!

les/gay/bi/trans people from thinking about suicide,because of the hatred that goes on.but they also help regular strait people too. go see for yourself. that's my recommendation. your two failure's mean that your not mean't to die yet. i hope you make the right choice.

Listen to me right now. You survived a shot in the chest. I don't know if you are a believer but to me, that sounds like Jesus really doesn't want you to die yet. He has a big plan for you! Just think about everything you can do while alive, travel the world, skydive, get married, start a family. Do you really want to go through a possibly slow death where you're laying on the floor screaming out in pain because you could have done something wrong with however method you choose next? NO! Stay alive and do all the incredible things that God has in store for you. As for friends, in my town there are fun classes you can take at our local rec center, art and hockey and basketball and swimming and many more. Do something you love to do and you will meet so many friends who share the same interest you do! Do not give up on yourself because you are beautiful.

Well, you seem to have your mind pretty much made up, but! I have been in your same boat. I was about 12 when I had this issue and I always felt like I had no one to turn to.
My solution would be to NOT commit suicide and try to end your life. You are still young and have a whole bunch of time ahead of you to go and make some friends and find people that you can turn to when you need them most.
The worst thing to do now is to give up. (:
