No, but it has been suggested to me. Here on IIN as a matter of fact. Good old SOT9.
I've tried it.
Gone to hospital and mental care wards from age 14 - 16. Even been on suicide watch.
As someone who hates those memories and is now completely happy, I hate the results of this survey.
It's not impressive or cool when someone does those things, and trust me, it doesn't help in the long run.
Get help, people. Please. Exercise, see a therapist, etc.
Where the option for:
"I thought about it, decided that it was stupid, and left it at that"
I'm a little worried about all the people here that considered it.
I surely had bad and depressive parts of my life, but I'd never give up my life, even if I'd completely fuck it up.
Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Ive tried killing myself. I was at a dead end and i had a gun to my head, but then my guy friend stopped me. I swear i could hear Imagine Dragons Demons in my head.....
Well, I suffer from depression, so of course the thought of suicide has crossed my mind more than once.
Not to mention my life has been rough for the past 4 years
and that didn't help out my thoughts at all.
I've looked at a belt before and daydreamed
about hanging myself from it.
I've also considered overdosing on painkillers,
but in the end, I never do.
I'm glad that I haven't tried either.
My life is better now and there is too much to see.
In Norway suicide and assisted suicide are legal. You could always hire a hitman Angelina Jolie style.
Murder/suicide yes, but then I thought better of it, I mean why should I have to die too.
I've never tried it, don't want to try it and I hope I never have to try it.
But here is some advice: What would a suicide gain you? Nothing. You are dead. Your loved ones will have a very hard time. And you will never get to do the things you want, or set things straight. So you can look back one day and say: "Yup, I've dealt with my problems and now i'm looking forward to growing up happily!"
So my advice: Forget this crap. You only live once. Why fuck that up. There are so many good things to see.
Sure it ain't all good (We don't live in a yoghurt commercial!), but think of the glass as half-full.
(Don't tell me I live a super easy life. All of my grandparents are dead. Two died in front of me. My mother was at the verge of a mental breakdown and a divorce with my dad. She also went through stomach surgery. Hernia thing. (all good now, thank God). A very good friend of mine died in a motorcycle accident. And my dad went through heart surgery two months ago. He is recovering perfectly and feels better with each day. I still have my parents and know that wherever my grandparents are, they still love me. And that a part of them lives inside of me. I have my girlfriend. I have my friends, my pet and my car. And I still have a lot to live for. We all have our ups and downs.)
I've attempted it. Was hospitalized then was assigned a psychiatrist for a year who diagnosed me with clinical depression and prescribed to me anti-depressants.
I didn't think it was cool nor did I crave attention. I simply did not want to deal with the problems I had endured and lost all interested in the possibilities of the future.
I do not approve, yet I have a hard time viewing it as stupid if the attempt turns out to be successful. I'm not sure why I feel this way.
Used to think about it a lot & seriously almost actually did it twice. Bad times.
I haven't considered suicide, but I'm at a point where I wouldn't really care if I died.
