do you ever feel like commiting suicide?

I have had that feeling at times but, after a close relative of mine did just that, I know the heartbreak it brings to the people who are left behind. I saw the pain and desperation of his daughter, mother, sister.... You are too young to be feeling that life has let you down & I truly hope that opportunities will open up for you to do some of the things you want. Take care

yes it always come to my mind.. and i dont want to be in this world any more.. people are just so selfish.. mean.. they live for themselves..

I have. On numerous occasions in fact, fortunately something always comes along to prevent me from going through with it. When I lost my best friend, I made it into college. When I almost lost everything, I found one thing greater than everything else. There's always a reason to keep going on, you just have to find it. Have the courage and ambition to live. Anyone can die. The people who live through tough and painful times are those who deserve their new chance.

every damn day...but my puppy dogs keep me going strong...

Your life become so boring if you do not know the purpose of life but if you do your life became so meaningful. Did you know that life has a purpose and God gave this wonderful gift to use it wisely, we are created because He wants us to enjoy life not to live in this hatred world. If you need a friend I am here, I am more than willing to help and comfort you whenever you have a problem. Just treat me as a friend or even your sister. I'd love to do that for you.

As people have suggested below, I think it is best that you speak to your GP. My depression hit rock bottom when I was about 17 and I wanted to not be here anymore for various reasons that i wont go into. But my doctor put me on antidepressants and some other tablets and although it took a while, things started to get better. Now it is quite a few years on and I am happy and no longer need the medication. It is important to get help when you need it.

Dear life is so beautiful and it depends how you look it and how you feel it. you see the nature it is so good but we people have different thinking due to which we feel mental tensions. I never feel down and boring ..., if i feel i endulge in some activity so that i can be busy enough.

I have thought about it quiet a few times. I think my life is pretty normal too but there just doesn't seem to be any meaning to my life. I go to school and get decent grades and then I go home, and just play on the computer until the day is over. Sometimes I really think I would do it but then I know it would hurt my mother very much. In fifth grade, my mother was crying because she couldn't afford to buy me an expensive violin and she wanted the best for me. So I guess taking my life can't be an option.

hi chantal, you know its funny because im so depressed when i logged on mylot and your post caught my attention almost at once lol. Im so much older than you and yet here i am starting to hate my life. I honestly havent read all the threads in your post bcoz it will just ruin what im about to say. It has been so many years I've been asking myself my purpose in life. What i want to do and all that stuff. And I'm a bit embarrass with that up until now i feel i haven't done so much in my life. I feel like no one and nobody. I do feel like im giving up and just vanish from this world. The thing is, im not giving up my fight just like that. Im not dying without giving this life a good fight. And the very first person i would want to fight is ME. You sound so smart sweetie, atleast give it a good fight okay?

No, I don't. I am taught of it as a sin and running away from solving problem. Therefore whenever time get tough, I always remind myself that it's an obstacle in life and I will survive it, regardless what. There's a silver lining behind everything, we just can't see it. Besides, if I do something like that, I will hurt the heart of my love ones. The scar will be deep for them.

yes especially when i was younger. maybe that was because when we are young we are still very idealistic. but we live in an imperfect world so we are disillusioned and disappointed most of the time. and that's when we may think that it's all hopeless and useless to go on living. but just hang in there; you are in this world for a purpose. you may not be clear yet as to what this might be; some people spend a lifetime trying to find that purpose.

I am really sorry you feel this bad. Have you been to see your GP? You might need medication for depression. I was on anti-depressants for 3 years and it really helped me get over a terrible period when I felt so low and lethargic. My Uncle killed himself in 1987, which was a terrible time in my life. I was 17 and I still clearly remember my aunty ringing in hysterics, as he had hung himself and she walked into the house to find him there. It was just terrible. You really don't want to put your family through that kind of pain.

No i think to do that kind of thing in my life because these things are not showing your braveness in your life no one ever think that kind of incident in his life because this life is given by god and god is the only person who have a right to get back his life not us.

sometimes,I am thinking of sucide,cause of boring life,I dont like the way I am going on,but I just cant quit,so just come on and on,I hope one day,something could happen and change my life,I am just do my best and wait for the miracle.

hello chantalreanne.. YES I DO! AND i felt this once during hardest part of my marriage life.. i almost kill my self.. all were set... the rope the chair and myself and when the time i put the rope in my neck i suddenly glance at the back of my closed door and i saw the face of JESUS CHRIST in a calendar..(i usually hung calendars at the back of a door room.)i look at his eyes as it seems hes looking at me too.i felt my body was shaking and i am so cold.. i started to cry and slowly i went downstairs and look for my 3 kids and i hug them so tight thinking how silly am i cos if i die who will take care of them.. up to this moment i always thanking GOD that HE gave me a chance to think what are the consequences of taking my own life.. so always PRAY for GOD is wonderful!
