Don't kill yourself. It's never the best choice. Believe me. Nobody benefits from it--not even the one who dies.

Don't do it. I know it may feel like you wanna die so badly at times, I've been through it trust me. But like the ^ post said, no one benefits. There's so much to live for and when you doubt yourself and want to cut yourself, you have to rethink things. Clear your head, turn on music, don't pick up the knife or whatever you use to cut yourself with. You have to force yourself not to do it. I did it, you can too. It's not as hard as you think.
You just have to let your feelings out and talk to someone you can trust. Your friend is tripping b/c she or he is worried about you. In a way, your parents and your friend(s) will feel like its their fault they didn't help you and they'll carry that with the rest of their lives, even if they may think about it, it's still a guilty feeling when they think back on the past.
Like I said before, there's so much to live for. Don't throw it away.

I really don't think it's that big of a deal. I'd been considering suicide lately. I decided to give things a chance though... since I'm so young and all, I'm assuming I'm to naive to really know if I want to die just because I'm bored with life (no idea why... I think I'm social, and at least normal enough to get along with many people, yet I feel so alone from everyone at the same time). So I'm waiting 'til I graduate from high school in 2 1/2 years to further debate on that option.

You are the apple...






Suicide should never be an option. I repeat...

Suicide should never be an option.

If you want to cut, then let it be a way to keep yourself from suicide until the suicidal thoughts disappear. However, I highly suggest these other opinions of mine...
- Is the cutting an addiction?
- Choose a length of time until you will allow yourself to cut again and increase that amount of time between each session.
- Is the cutting not an addiction and just something you do from time to time to fight the pain?
- Stop. Immediately. Find a new way to release your pain and anger. Don't let it control you like it does my best friend and so many other people.

I have dealt with suicidal people and am currently helping my best friend to get past a 5-6 year stint of cutting. If you ever need advice or someone to talk to, pm me. I'm here for you any time.





and I am your core.

Suicide should not be an option hun.
As tempting as death sounds
It's an empty victory, that leaves more sorrow than anything
you probably think your friends are being stupid by nagging you about your scars
Haha that's what i thought too
If you want to know why i can relate, inbox me
Because, it's personal
But, from what i got from it i know attempting suicide was the dumbest thing i could have done
Honestly, whatever trial your going through
Can't truly be that bad, your only given what you can handle
There are other outlets
There are other methods of escape that don't kill you
Think about it please

While I disagree with suicide personally, I'm not going to be like everybody else and tell you that suicide is wrong and should not be done. It's a very personal decision, and if you want to change the way you feel, then you should change the way you think. If you find yourself thinking something negative, latch onto something that makes you smile. I'm still struggling with my own negative feelings, and I know how irritating it can be to try and smile when you're feeling down, but if truly wish to change the way you feel, that's the only way. I give my advice to strangers, but I don't expect anybody to heed it, and I refuse to push my own views and beliefs on others. I hope that you find something that makes you happy. There are people that care for you, even if you don't know about it.

@Ray: Dwelling on negative feelings doesn't vent them, all it does is enhance them, so telling her cut herself to get rid of any suicidal thoughts would only speed up the process.

ive never been the type of person to even consider suicide, even now after recently losing my best friend as well as someone i truly loved... before i met her i felt numb & empty and now im feeling that way again.

numb is as dead as i get without actually dying, i cant say i like it but it seems to be my only option. the reason id never consider killing myself is becuz if i do... than ill never have the chance to talk to her again or see her again.

ill never have the chance to make things better between us somehow, not only that but if i killed myself... it would make her sad as well. alot of people shes been close to in her life have died and i dont wanna add on to that number, i dont want my death to be more of a reason for her sadness.

it would hurt alot of people, even if my best friend is the only one ive been close to in years... i choose not think too much on negative things!

it took time for me when i was younger to push myself to focus on the positive things, even when im at my worst. i Choose to believe. i Choose to have hope. i Choose to have faith.

everything in life... how we feel, how we think, what we say or do or how things affect us... they are all choices that we make. it is possible to choose how you want to feel, its all in the mind and the mind is powerful thing but it also depends on if your heart is strong enough to handle it and all it takes is simply to believe it is.

Of corse i know its not easy for many people to believe in themselves but... its better to try than to give up or give in to negative thoughts is it not?

of corse, you must answer that question for yourself. dont give up on yourself, you must try to find a way to make yourself stronger. life is precious, something you should always hold on to as well as to have a strong will to live no matter what difficulties may come your way.

you must find ways to endure them, even something as simple as a positive attitude can get you through so many things. for me, humor is something that helps me get through more so than most things but aside from that i tend to be a very positive person. even when im feeling hurt or depressed, somehow i manage to be positive about it... as much sense as that may not make but... i never said i made much sense and i never said im not insane =D

yeah, im insane, in good ways. another reason id never consider it is becuz i believe i can still do good for others. even if i cant do much good for myself, i can do good for others or i can try anyway... and i do try, even when im hurting, i still try. i still believe, i still hope & i still love... no matter how much im hurting, i still do and always will.

so i hope your able to find what answers you may be looking for, to find a way. to realize. to take time for some self discovery, to find what defines you, to take time to explore who you are or... whatever may it be that you need to do. but may it be best to wander far from those thoughts that tempt you to embrace death. "death is no friend of mine"... im not sure who said that but... i nearly met death once and that statement is true.

death tried to get a hold of me and if i didnt have such a strong will to live, it would have had me. and my best friend was the main reason i held on so strongly, becuz i didnt want her to be alone and if theres any chance she might ever need me... well, i cant be there for her if im dead.

im not sure what your reasons are for thinking about suicide but ive seen some of the darkest voids that seem nearly impossible to escape... mainly becuz the one in the void thinks it impossible or simply just allows themselves to stay there, without any thought on trying to escape it or trying to fill it. sometimes you must fill it with good things, sometimes thats the only way to escape it, its just a matter of making & keeping yourself motivated and determined.

well... i think ive said enough -hm-

You too, eh? Well, I suggest you don't do it. You know why I didn't? Because I want to experience things. A lot of things.

Life is going to kill us in the end, so why not take advantage of it? I know that there will be times when you want to stop living on the spot, but think of it this way. You've passed life's other problems, so what's stopping you from passing this one?

About cutting... can't say I haven't done that... But I've learnt to stop. Except when the situation just gets to me, y'know? Anyway, cutting is a scary way to vent. I was scared that I might cut of a part of me... I fear large amounts of pain, so I like to keep them small.

I'm hoping you can relate to what I'm saying... We might be having the same feelings, but I'm not sure about the thoughts...

You say its not so hard to not cut yourself,but its extremly hard to stop if you become depended on it.I have and still am,my best friend is doing the best he can to stop me and like many i've considered suicide.Its difficult,and not to be rude but I don't think you went through that.
PostPosted: Sun Dec 25, 2011 8:29 pm


true i haven't gone that far as to being dependent on it. my bff keeps from doing that.
but i did have a friend who went that far and committed it. it was so sad when he did and i felt hollow for several weeks and i still think he's watching these days. i try to talk to him, and think of him so i don't lose the thought of him.
but it makes it hard b/c his b-day is coming up. and even though i haven't known him that long, i know his bff, who is one of my close friends, will be hurting. to make it worse, its a holiday where everyone will be celebrating.

I agree with this post. You're too young to know whether or not it's the right option. Wait it out, see if it gets better. Give it at least ten years. If your life is horrible for ten years and you have no other reason to live, then you are granted permission to then commit suicide. It's still not mandatory, but I'm not going to blame you.

But, really, ten years. Not nine. Ten.
PostPosted: Mon Jan 02, 2012 1:46 pm


I think the only thing that suicide does for you is give one final painful blow to your friends and family. Some people think it is the way out and honestly, there have been times when I think the world would be a better place without me, but then I remember that there are people out there that still need me. You may not think that you're important at times, but I'd say it's best to be able to make a conscious choice to change your thinking and make yourself a valuable asset that you can recognize. Make something of yourself and you'll be able to look back and see it was the right choice to save your own life.

There isn't really any way I can change your mind if you've already made it, but I hope that you will decide to keep your life because it is a precious thing, even if you can't see it right now. Imagine the pain you feel from your friend's death and magnify that ten fold. You will inflict all that pain and more on your parents who brought you into this world willingly. I'm sure they want you.

zat damn cat
... but my friends keep trippin' over my cutting scabs...

Being one of those friends who freak out when I see my friends scars, please think. Think about those people who worry about you like I worried about my friend and know that it twists a friends heart to know you want to die...Just think about the people you'll leave behind...
