    A lot of people have thought about it including me, but if you do it a lot and considering it a way out, maybe your should seek help for depression. Good luck.

  • Yes. When life turns poopey, I hate it, and do consider it. When everything comes crashing down I think about how easy it would be ya know? And I am so curious. I feel bitter sometimes and want them to taste the sting of my permanent absence.

    I had a boy break up with me. It is rather complicated, but what better place to go than an old post. It is like an empty room. We were never dating, but in love, and I can be a crazy and difficult person. So he said no more. I can't say that I blame him because I am the one at fault for everything. It just really sucks knowing that your actions have consequences. Talk about a real wake up call. I wonder how awesome it would be to just not exist. I sound pathetic right now but fuckballs am I internally wounded. Self hate and loathing bubbles up and it would be ok for you if you were gone. It's not the end of the world. It's not the end of the world.

    I know dem feels.

    It's normal, but don't do it. Instead, try to talk to someone you trust. Like was already mention before me, it probably wouldn't be a good idea to tell your parents. Your depressed already so telling them might cause you more stress. Tell a friend or see a doctor. If you're a minor, I think your doctor could tell your family about your feelings:( consider the best way for you. Good luck:)

    I used to wish for death a lot. I still do when my life is shit and i'm depressed. I'm in group therapy now. I also talk to a counselor. I also see a phsyciatrist. There is help out there. Don't be ashamed to seek it. I know it's hard to change ones life for the better but that is what u should strive to do. Get help if u can't do it alone.

    I think about it all the time! It's the burden, the pain in one's soul, which is stronger and heavier than life. I have survived I don't know how but it's true that thanks to being grateful, to appreciate the good things I have in my life with real gratitude and joy, I've been able to forget about suicide. Gratitude is the key to feel good, I think.

    A functional mind will commonly avoid suicidal thoughts. Having them indicates that you have mental issues that should be addressed. A therapist will be able to help you fix your mental state.

    Everyone thinks about this at some point in their lives. However, they should eventually think back to all the good things that's still left, or otherwise...

    It is normal and usually caused by depression which is treatable. I would visit a doctor and let them know your feelings. The doctor can proscribe something to help. By the way, if you are worried about speaking to a doctor, don't be. This is VERY normal and doctors deal with patients like this everyday.

    Yes, its normal to think about it. Sometimes I think its just the curiousity of the act that makes people ponder it, part of human nature...since we're the only species capable of planning our own death. If you ever find yourself ACTUALLY considering it & you feel depressed...then get help! Suicide is so selfish, think of all the people you would hurt & the everlasting pain youd efflict on them.

    See a doctor... Signs of depression are to take seriously... I ignores all the signs untill I actually tried to act on it...

  • Everybody does at some point of the life but it go away after a while and if not talk to some 1 about it (not with parents it will only make it worst and awkward).

    I thunk everyone thinks about it, but lifes never going to be bad enough to warrant that. All problems are temporary, suicide is permanent, and it won't solve anything.
