Suicide: I've been contemplating suicide for a good time now. I'm struggling with homosexuality and my faith.
I've been contemplating suicide for a good time now. I'm struggling with homosexuality and my faith. Faith says that it's wrong yet I feel driven towards homosexuality and I feel guilty for acting on it. Idk what to do... I just kinda wanna be gone so all those problems will be gone. I guess I'm just depressed and it's doing things to me

First go to your local health facility and ask to see a counselor to help you manage your thoughts. Secondly, never contemplate suicide, time heals all wounds. Third keep in mind that without struggles in life we as people would not be able to appreciate the finer things that happen to us. Have faith in yourself and what makes you happiest. The rest will fall into place.

Faith should not be the thing that controls your life. Faith should be something that helps you be spiritual. Faith should never define who you are. You define who you are. If you're gay then you're gay. Faith not believe in homosexuality but that doesn't mean you can't be gay. I always found myself questioning the church about how they didn't except homosexuality. My question is doesn't God except all people no matter what? I was taught when I was a little girl that everyone is equal no matter who they are and you except people for who they are. Killing yourself is not going to create a solution its going to cause more of a problem. Think of all the people you would leave behind and how they would wonder what happened. Think about the people who are suffering just like you and how they are in the same boat as you. The solution to this problem is getting up and giving a good fight. If you're gay then be proud of who you are. It's not something shameful, of course thats what the media, politics, and faith have made it seem. It's not shameful be proud of yourself. Ignore those people who are ignorant, they don't know any better because they are hating something they don't understand.
I know you feel alone and you feel like there is no way out but you have to understand killing yourself is not going to help. Choose to be you and forget about faith controling who you are. BE YOU!

First, I want to tell you that there is absolutely nothing wrong with you. A lot of people are homosexual. In fact, more than 45% of people - whether they admit it or not - are homosexual or bisexual.
As for the faith, in my opinion, it's almost like politics. I apologize if this offends you. But have you ever seen a politician you agree with 100%? Or do you pick and choose things? Nobody is right all of the time. I personally am not religious, but I respect your beliefs. If god created you in his image and loves you, and you are homosexual, wouldn't that mean that god wanted you to be homosexual.
Be yourself. That's the most important thing you can do with your life. Be your own person. Be who you want to be. Don't be who others tell you to be, or you will never be happy.
My advice is to seek professional help my dear friend, because although I may not know you, I care. I want you to get better. So please, seek help from a psychologist.
