Nothing is working anymore. My life is getting worse. Please, I am begging you, help me?
Question Posted Thursday March 27 2014, 1:47 am
I didn't expect to get this. I wanted a list of ways to STOP THIS. I CAN'T DO THIS ANYMORE! I even called a suicide hotline # about a month ago and was put on hold about a dozen times. I kept getting the same lady everytime I called and she clearly did not want to listen to me.
I need help...soon. I have called every number, talked to people, and been used by the rest.
Is there anybody out there who can help? The thought of even starting another month is too much.

I don't know what you're situation is, but just tell yourself it's not worth it. Obviously the hotline number isn't going to work, and maybe the best thing is asking people on the internet for advice, though there will be a lot of smart asses out here that will give you rude answers ignore them as well and take the ones that help you out. I just lay down and relax, even sleep for a while. The effect isn't permanent, but the thoughts go away for a little while. We don't know each other what so ever, but I'm sure you will find the light in your life. After all, you can't get a little sunshine without a little rain! Hope this helped you out a little!
Dragonflymagic answered Thursday March 27 2014, 4:42 pm: I am sorry to hear you've tried hotlines and got no help. The currently economy has seen lots of cuts in staffing for such agencies or some help agencies close due to lack of funding.
The other person answering you is right, we don't have enough details as to know what has caused you to come to such a point. That might help guide us to give you more specific help ideas.
I don't even know your age. What are some of the most common reasons behind people wanting to commit suicide these days, I see a lot from teens whose hormones are out of balance too high or two low and that can bring on the severe depression that leads to suicidal feelings, another unknown one is eating poorly, especially if almost every meal is high fat high carbohydrates, cus then the body doesn't receive of what it needs and can become depressed, same as sugar binges, eventually the blood sugar drops and your body release more hormones to get the pancreas to create more and these changes in the body create depression and rages, we know a family member who was prone to this until they went off sugar almost totally and they weren't diabetic.
So those are some of the lesser obvious causes. Others can be a debilitating disease, constant physical pain, abusive home life, or sexual orientation with transexuals as the leading cause of suicides by teens as of late as I've heard.
Depending on what the causing issues are, there may be things that could help that you haven't thought of yet.
So in general, in case you decide not to share any more with us, all I can say is to get into volunteering. Free volunteers are needed and many agencies will be glad for the help. To get involved helping others in a worse position than you takes your focus off yourself. No it doesnt stop the cause of what has you feeling this way. But not focusing on yourself is the best thing I can say while not knowing specifics. In the volunteering you will come to be loved and appreciated by other volunteers who cant do it all theirselves. You begin to have a feeling of achievement, of doing something good which can go a long way towards having a positive effect on ones outlook on their life.
Don't give up yet. You have some work to do. You want things to get better, you are writing to us which is reaching out but you need to do a little more work and provide more info. Maybe we know of specific groups that can be more helpful than a general suicide hotline. [ Dragonflymagic's advice column | Ask Dragonflymagic A Question ]

I agree wholeheartedly with Askalisha, there are people out there with lives as hard as yours, and harder.
I'm a teenager, I'm sure I have no idea how you feel. But I've had multiple people very close to me attempt suicide, or become suicidal. So I do know what it's like to have someone close to me almost die at there own hand.
You're life is a gift. Even if you're in constant pain and homeless, at least you had a chance to live, to interact with people and make memories. Some people die to young to even get that.
Make the most out of what is around you, there can be beauty and even happiness in the most small and simple things.
Pray, go to church if you don't already. Try talking to the Pastor and telling him how you feel. I don't know what God has in store for you, but I am very sure it's not suicide.
Even the Bible says life is tough, anything we can get in this world, is a blessing. Simply being alive is a great gift. Don't throw it away.
You mentioned you're children, think about them. If the situation was reversed, where they felt this way and lived the way you do, what would you think of them? What would you say to them?
I only know what you told me, but I can guarantee you suicide is not the answer. For Anything.
Remember, there is ALWAYS something to live for.
I sincerely wish you the best, and I will be praying for you.
Please, don't go through with it.
Someone out there can help you, find them.
I just joined this site so I don't know how to work it very well, but if you can talk to me through it, I will be glad to help you and talk to you to the best of my ability. [ MsNoName13's advice column | Ask MsNoName13 A Question ]
Askalisha01 answered Thursday March 27 2014, 5:05 am: Im sorry if it may be difficult to get answers but you must understand that it is a very hard task to give advice to a person who feels that all hope is lost.
Why don't you start off with telling us why you are even considering this awful idea? Maybe than we can get to that broken little heart of yours who in all reality may just need to feel loved, wanted,important, etc.
Please do not try to take your life because if i am sure of one thing and its that someone loves you very much! And you cam say no but that is just your depression talking because even if you truly feel that no one does it may be because the person who can take all these thoughts away and make you want to live your life hasn't came along
Who in life hasn't faced troubles and difficulties? We ALL do and each person has their own pain but its all about picking ourselves up and think that someone out their is suffering 10x the pain we are!
Think of all the people that very unfairly get murdered and have their lives just taken away! They did not have the choice that you do have! Its not fair to the people that know you to do that to them.
Why don't you open up a little more to tell us what is going on in your life and instead of asking for ways to end it ask for ways to save yourself [ Askalisha01's advice column | Ask Askalisha01 A Question ]
