Is it normal to often think about commiting suicide?

Sounds like me in many ways. I know im not depressed yet suicide is often on my mind and I know how id go about it. I also dont know why we think this way :(

The main reason why you wouldn't do it is because you don't want to hurt those around you. So what is the main reason for you wanting to do it? The "unhealthy thoughts?" And why do you get these thoughts?

You say that you are a happy yet negative person. I find this hard to believe. If you were happy with being negative, then your belief that you are always going to fail and let people down wouldn't bother you at all. It seems more fitting to me to say that you appear to have a good life and appear to be happy, yet on the inside, you have much self-doubt. That is not the same as being a happy person.

Talking to someone else might help to relieve your feelings. I don't talk to people about things like this, but I find that letting it out on the internet can help me work through it. But maybe talking to your mum may help you. It's up to you, since I have no idea what she's like. Seeing as she presumably has a good understanding of things like this, she might know better than others how to help. Then again, not necessarily... it's up to you if you feel up to talking.

By the way, people will worry even when you don't say anything. They will worry especially when they sense that something isn't right and you aren't saying anything about it or are denying it. And they may blame themselves for not being able to help you. So, you're not exactly stopping people from feeling this way by keeping things to yourself.

You say that you don't think that you would actually hurt yourself, but if you are having these thought patterns and something bad happens and triggers you off...you get the idea. Don't let that happen. You aren't letting anyone down by feeling the way you do. It's just holding you back.

You seem to be worried about how it would effect everyone else-you have chosen not to do it because of everyone else...what about you? What do you want out of your life? Why do you feel all these negative thoughts? I think you do need help and I think it needs to be a doctor that is away from your mother...she may be the best shrink ever but she is still your mom...plz get some help...talk to someone...there is sooo much out there to live for!! Get help for YOU and not everyone else!!! Hugs!

Are you me on another side of the planet?? Message me if you want to talk...maybe we can work this out...I don't understand it all that well...Hope you are ok. :)

everyday i wake up i think about going to the roof and jumping off.....

I don't regret anything and I have a really nice life. I think about suicide mostly because I desperately want to know what comes next... The only reason I don't kill myself because I don't want to hurt the people who care for me...

thank you all so much for your advise, i have just been diagnosed with a panic disorder, many people suffering from this also have suicidal thoughts. i have been put on anti anxiety medication and have just started cognitive behavioural therapy.

Look dude, ur probably depressed about less things u r happy about. Thing is that u shud continue ur life in a happy way and in time u will probably forget about ur depressing so live life to the full.

First part= my twin.
I've already decided on sleeping pills even though I know I could never do that.
I even tell myself that if I feel I need to do that, there's a few things I need to do before deciding I really want to do that.

Unless you wouldn't actually try it then your fine. I think of suicide all the time.

This is normal for many people who have a big regret or think there life is a mistake (espically depressed people) but don't do it think of all the people who care for you! Smile you deserve to(:
