Anyone stop themselves from committing suicide?

[Black Cobain]

Whats with all the depression and suicidal threads lately y'all been going thru

A lot of us use thecoli as a form of escapism, sometimes we just hit a dead end here, y'know?

Like @CashmereEsquire said, some of us had material stuff but not enough emotional support

Nah...There's no sure fire method...

But I most definitely will commit suicide before I get too old. Doing it the legal way.

I ain't have a choice on being born, but I most definitely will have a choice of when, how and where I die.


I wholeheartedly believe people should have a safe and legal way to end their lives if they wish to do so.

No point in staying here if you don't wanna be here.

 

[Worthless Loser]

Never stopped myself, but I've stopped two people so far. One was via phone and the other was in person. It can be a very traumatic experience.

 

[Billie Jean]

Yeah, death itself is something people are pretty interested in but don't admit - being inquisitive and meditative gave me free time to ponder about life's intricacies.

Yeah, sometimes that crosses my mind too, like Jack London said, "Better to burn out than fade away". Maybe i'll end up thinking the opposite, get me a wife (or husband), have/adopt a kid or something, maybe.

Why'd you name yourself after a hippie who hated Blacks btw?

People get kids and families and shyt all the time to give them something to live for. I thought about doing that but then I'll just be trapping myself.

I just picked the name because I thought it sounded it cool.

I'll probably change it once people become familiar with the name.

I stopped myself by having kids.

I still have the same depression but that option removed itself the second I saw my daughters face. A lot of responsibility to put on a kid huh?

But yeah fam stay up, things inevitably change.

I think alot of these cats grew up in homes where their parents provided material things but not emotional things.

I think this is a fair point. Material wise, I've had everything that I could ever want. I think my outlook on life would be a lot different if that weren't the case. I still wouldn't trade my life for anyone's though.

Kid CUDI saved my life when I was at my lowest

He even inspired me to start seeing a therapist which helped to an extent

Man on the Moon came straight from the heavens.

yeah when my parents split, I had a VERY HUMBLE up bringing, and like I said having fam go through a Civil War, I grew up appreciating the little I had, and it made me discipline in general.

I couldn't stop myself, that was a Higher Power watching over me. The arrests, psych units, and hospitalizations were a break from what could have been the end. Haven't felt that way in years.

A friend of mine shot himself in the head a few months ago after turning his life around and doing very well. He had a lot to live for. He told me on two occasions he was going to do it, and I told him to find a sponsor he can trust and get honest with his doctor, but I truthfully didn't see him doing it as he took his life a precious, plus he was always grateful and gracious. I try no to think about it, because it makes no sense to me.

I rarely feel that low or high. I'm a bit too conceited to consider suicide . But if I ended up doing serious time, I'd may hang myself. I got escorted out of therapy today, and have to show up again on Friday to see someone else at clinic, and my most recent 12-step sponsor threatened to call the cops on me, so stopped fukking with him. I'm pretty lonely, afraid, and dissapointed right now. I have real reasons to be angry, but I'll learn my lesson one day about what to do with it. still hopeful.
