Recently I've started cutting my wrists and have been thinking about suicide, I don't think I would go through with it because it would upset my family but does anyone know anyone that commit suicide and/or know what it feels like afterwards or have you ever tried yourself?

Oh my God... you first have OCD, and now you're suicidal?
As I said before, you gotta get a psychiatrist ASAP! Your life is gonna become total chaos if you don't!

I already knew the answer... Suicide may seem like a good escape from it all, but it doesn't solve anything.
All it does is cause pain for your friends, family, and even people you may barely know.
You have a future ahead of you!
Don't let this point in your life ruin the rest of it.
Things will get better, trust me.
My friend attempted suicide.
He thought no one cared about him.
All the things going on in his life were leading him from bad to worse.
It's impossible to describe the fear and overwhelming sadness and pain I felt when I was told what he did.
Luckily he was saved.
That event made his life get a little worse,
people always watching him to make sure he didn't try again.
But he decided to get help because he still wanted to commit suicide.
You might not think therapy will help, but it helped him.
That was last year.
Things did get better for him and now hes happy he was saved.
Just, think about your future, it won't always be painful.
Besides, you don't want to hurt the people you love. ...But somehow it still hurt to hear.

I know how you feel.
This post, and the OCD. Alot of the time I feel like I have all these mental problems, I just don't know what the hell is wrong with me. Lately, I've been pretty depressed, and despite all the reasons I've talked to other suicidal people about to talk them out of it, I just don't feel like anything's worth it anymore. Like I'm not worth it anymore. Yeah, so, it would hurt my friends and family? I'm numb to that, I feel pretty alone at this point in life, and I feel like alot of people deserve the pain that I feel so greatly now. Pathetic as it is, I feel like my life really just isn't worth it without my best friend in my life. He is everything to me, and now that we're not so close I feel dead inside.
I'm sorry. I don't know how to help you, I dont know how to help myself. I just can't make anything right.

Not only have I had the personal experience of being suicidal (though I've never tried it), I knew one person you did try seriously but survived, and another you succeeded.
When I was at my lowest it felt like I was in a hole. It was dark and cold, and everything around me was a daze. I was numb from everything. My joy in life was cutting and throwing up. It was my only escape. I would wake up feeling hopeless, go to school feeling hopeless, and go to sleep feeling hopeless. Every moment just wanting someone to come kill me, whether on purpose or accident. Though I thought of suicide consantly, I knew I wouldn't do it. There was a part of me that knew I was put on Earth for a purpose bigger than I knew then, or even than I know now. It hurt being torn between feeling lost and hopeless, as well as knowing that I couldn't give up when that knife looked oh so friendly.
The quote that sticks in my mind is "don't make a permanent solution to a temporary problem." I remember the day that Rana committed suicide. It was the friday just before winter break and I couldn't understand why everyone at school was crying; even the popular football players were crying. When I found out I was crushed and I didn't even know her! I cried all day, and to this very moment am still deeply affected by what she did. I know that I will always remember that day, and that December 19th will give me a heavy heart thinking of who she would be today. It's amazing the affect you can give to complete strangers when there is a tragedy like that. If a stranger can feel that way, can you even grasp the idea of what the family and friends would feel like?
With saying that, choosing not to commit suicide solely for the purpose of not hurting loved ones is not the reason you decide not to. It is a major factor, but the main reason is that you know your own potential, and that you're not doing because of YOU. Think about what you'd miss, of all the things you take for granted. Think of how the wind russles the trees and goes through your hair, and the smell after a heavy rain. How about the way the sand feels between your toes and the rhythmic crashing of the waves on the shore. Think of how great you feel when you make someone you care about smile or laugh, or the excitement on Christmas morning when you're about to open your presents. After all, it really is the little things that count. People don't realise how much we depend on them, and how hard it is when you're in a new environment without all of that comfort.
Instead of focusing on how horrible your life is right now, focus on how you can change it for the better. It's all on your mind set. Make baby steps. Maybe you want to get an A on a test. Promise to yourself to study two hours every night. Not only will this focus your mind on something more positive and productive, you'll feel so proud when you've reached your goal. Maybe you want to lose a few inches around the thighs or abdomen. Promise yourself to work out every other day for a half hour. Little things like that will help get your mind off of depression and on to more positive thinking. Try it out and see how it goes. Remember, baby steps.

I really like your point of view. This part of what you said really touched me.

I used to be suicidal and I tried to kill myself. Now I'm thankful it didn't work and I'm sure that in the future you'll be glad that you did do it, too. Until fairly recently, I cut myself, too. I was never quite sure why, but I did a lot. It got pretty bad and my parents made me go to a mental hospital for it. I just hope it never gets to this point for you. I know it may seem like things really suck right now and you probably won't believe me when I say this, but it will get better. Maybe not soon, but it will. I never believed people when they said that to me, but it did, so now I know it's true.
Well, I hope you feel better and stuff and if you ever need anyone to talk to, I'll be here.

I have had about 3 friends and many more family members commit suicide...Believe me, it's much better to stay here. If you are feeling depressed because of a problem in your family or something else, At least work to make it better before even considering making those around you suffer.
