If I were to commit suicide, I wouldn't intentionally kill myself, but rather I'd do things so reckless that there's a decent chance it'll kill me.

why? Maybe some dude on here is about to go over the edge and he can see hes not alone. Maybe that dude can meet someone in this thread to talk to. Life can be a pain in the ass and completely miserable sometimes. Thats when you gotta focus on the small things that make you happy. Get to your happy place

I've briefly wondered what it would be like to kill yourself before, but never have I thought of suicide. It would be insane just to consider it.

Just got back from my Grandpa's, who committed suicide, funeral. Don't do it. Sitting there watching my family devastated by it was overwhelming and tear-jerking to say the least. If you have thoughts about, stick it out for your family's sake.

Some Copy & Pasta:



I never got why people would kill themselves

so if you want to die you obviously don’t give a shit. like, about anyone. ‘cause if there is anyone who loves you, you don’t give a FUCK about them, or hurting them, and if there’s not, there’s no one to give a shit about.

so instead of killing yourself why don’t you just get the fuck out? leave the basement, leave your house, leave the motherfucking country. go on an adventure. spend your time doing something awesome, like tracking down some terrorist. go be James bond. go fuck up a shark with a harpoon. danger? fuck that, you were going up against 100% death rate before, you’re being safe now. fuck EVERYTHING, man, the world is your oyster.

sometimes i wish i was suicidal. i’d pull the barrel out of my mouth and point it in the air, start a revolution, LIVE. move to barcelona, hit the bars, bang some chicks. STDs, who fucking gives a shit?

and when i’m done, maybe i won’t want to kill myself, ‘cause i’ve seen how beautiful the world is.

People who commit suicide are selfish.

In saying that, I have considered it before.

Also, I can't stand people who make it visible to the public that they are depressed, or that they want to kill themselves.

I'm also a hypocrite.

I've thought about it, even came close to actually doing it a few times.

Once you're dead you're dead man. Maybe there's something after but you'll never have another chance at this life again. Might as well see it through.

Sometimes if I'm on a building or near a cliff I'll feel like "just jump, just do it" and I'll leave just in case I lose control. Same thing goes when I'm holding a knife at dinner sometimes "just stab them, right in the throat!" Then I put the knife down

OP dont kill yourself, and dont be selfish. Your probably young and have alot of life to live, this thread seems like your calling out for help. You have people who care for you and would be devestated if you did something drastic. How woud you feel if someone close to you killed themselves? probably pretty angry, but i could be completely mislead on my assumption that you are calling out for help. But why make a thread about suicide?

this thread is one of the worst things ive read on NS.

OP dont pay attention to this garbage, go find someone to talk to, ide be willing to bet that your school has a free consoling service where they would be happy to talk you through whatever youre dealing with.

The thing about suicide is its almost selfish. Your getting out of your problem easily, but your family and the people around you will be devastated.

That said I cant say that I havent hoped to be in some crazy accident or situation where I could volunteer to give up my life to save someone else's that deserves it. But then the bad thoughts go away and you think about all the cool shit you want to do. But then realize you cant really do all that cool shit. its a cycle.

Ya, that's a Simpleton's way of looking at it....

Someone in that state frustrates a healthy mind, because we can't comprehend why someone would take that option given the other choices they could make. We react in anger sometimes. Maybe not directly to them, but in some way. This tough guy "suck it up" attitude is absolutely not what they need to hear though, so I hope that if anyone reading this thread is seriously considering hurting themselves they seek help and not take the comments too seriously.

never would do it. but none the less there are some epic ways to go out, which makes it a fun thing to think about. i would want to feel the death though not die instantly, you know like, you will only feel that once and im kinda curious how that would be

Suicide was not always regarded with the same negative stigma that is attached to it today. In the times of ancient Greece, suicide was an accepted and respected thing. It was handled very procedurally. If one wished to commit suicide, because one felt that one's life was pointless, not worthwhile to oneself or one's fellow man, or that one was a burden, one could go before the court and plead one's case. If the court agreed that one's life was not worth living, one was given a hemlock extract which would take one's life. This was respected, and helped cleanse society of burdensome or useless people. If one is truly unhappy being alive, why should one go on living?

When thought of in this light, suicide is not a terrible thing. I imagine most NSers are ok with the idea of physician assisted suicide. If one is in a vegetative state, why go on living? If one is completely useless and of benefit to no one, not even oneself, why go on living? Who is to say that life is a sacred, holy enterprise, besides God himself, who we may or may not believe exists?

Try thinking of suicide in this new light. Realize that very few things are as black and white, as wrong or right, as they may initially appear.

i think most people have 'thought' about it before, but if you really want to kill yourself you also harness the power to do the most dangerous fucked activities without caring for your well being. Go ski off a huge cliff pussy.

The problem is though, a lot of people that are thinking about suicide actually just want help, but then people are like "if you really want to commit suicide then..." or "they're not serious they just want attention" and so people don't talk about it and it gets worse and worse and then they do kill themselves.
I don't want to be an attention whore and I don't think I'll actually kill myself, so I just let it build up and then occasionally vent a little in these threads. This stuff is so awkward and inappropriate to bring up around friends, and that never accomplishes anything anyways. I've moved around a few times, met different people and done different things, but it doesn't help. Maybe I should just get some prozac or something. Meh.

Dude I feel the exact same way. I looked into it and I'm not really sure anti depressants are the answer, but still its a weird mind set that I have never really been able to shake.

In the book "War of art" the author calls it resistance, and it means your not doing what you really want to be doing with your life. The problem is things like money and other logistical issues can keep you from really accomplishing what you want to do. Still a good read.

I'd be lying if I said that there hasn't ever been a time in my life when I've considered it, but it's obviously not the solution. it's a permanent fix to a temporary problem.

i've had 3 close friends kill themselves in the past year and it fucking sucks...one of them the weekend before thanksgiving. it's one of the most selfish things a person can do.

i dont think its selfish. its selfish of the family members who want there loved ones to live tormented lives. Last thing i would want is for anyone in my family to live in misery just to keep me happy.

it sucks. I cant imagine the demons you must have to end it.

Its your life, if you want out its your choice and no one elses. Its not selfish, that is dumb if you think that your life isn't worth living then you may be right. But don't throw it away for stupid reasons like girls or school. Just because some fat ugly bitch is making fun of you for being nerdy and white doesn't mean you should off yourself.

First time I put the gun back because I couldn't imagine how my parents and friends would feel finding out I did it.

Second time, my dad walked in as I was raising the gun to my head and basically tried to KO me to stop me.

It's a different mindset, man. The way I like to explain it is the glass of water sitting on your desk doesn't mean shit to you. Spill it. It doesn't fucking matter, right? Now think about the kid in Africa who wants nothing more than that glass of water. He is literally dying of thirst. The water is worth a lot more to him then it is to you. Right?
Suicide survivors need to relearn the value of life.
