I’ve had suicidal thoughts before but I’ve never acted out on them. shyt has been pretty bad for me lately but the only thing keeping me going right now is my family. For those who attempted it what made you do it and what was your family and friends reaction to it?

I've tried to off myself back in April of last year. I flipped my car over and everything on a empty ramp merging to a freeway. Only reason why I'm still alive is because before I flip my car, i forgot to take off my seatbelt. My mom, grandparents were are shooked and were worried about me. Me being a pos at the time just shrugged it all off and continue to drink. Don't do it man because all you going to do is hurt your family even though you feel like your hurt by just living day to day...

Just get some help and if you can take some time off. Travel somewhere with your loves ones and appreciate the moments you have with them inorder to clear your mind up breh.

I had those thoughts for about 6 months or so. Been wanting to slit my wrist but my therapist says that I shouldn't let my negative feelings take over and if you wanna be happy then be happy and do whatever it takes to get there. Problem is I don't know what the hell makes me happy these days, so I'm still looking. I think I just need someone to talk to that's not a doctor.

There’s a poster, I think he may be bushed, that almost went through with it, but after taking the pills, he went to the hospital. No, I’m not going to say who, but if he wants to share, he might be able to answer some questions.

Me, personally, for most of my life I’ve always thought about killing myself. It was normal for me to think about dying all day. I thought it was just the way things were. I thought life was just shytty and horrible.

Then, I got on the right meds (which took a very long time to figure out), and it’s like night and day. I no longer think about suicide all day. Every once in a while it will enter my thoughts, but it’s for a very short time.

After I got on these right meds and remained stable for a while, I looked back at my previous experiences and couldn’t believe I lived like that for so long. I had no idea what “normal” felt like. Living in deep depression and anxiety is not normal. You don’t have to live that way. It might take a while to find meds that work for you (it took me years, plural), but it can change your life considerably

shyt is too expensive and there’s no therapist that will help solve my problem.

Do whatever you can to get help. Trust me. I've felt like you have before. Thought therapy was too expensive, pointless, and redundant. I had suicidal thoughts for years and got close to attempting it several times

Now I have a sense of peace and feel happiness that I haven't had to this extent since I was a little kid

I wouldn't be alive to tell the story if I hadn't gotten help. It sounds corny but it really does get better with time. PM me if you feel comfortable doing so

My ex cut her wrist 4 different spots in December.

I read her journal a couple of months before the incident and saw some disturbing things about her past and how she viewed herself. I didnt tell her parents which I should have did. After that incident, I turnes her over back to her parents. I felt so bad man. I felt scared for her. It hurts everybody around you.

My advice to you, seek help and be honest about whats hurting you. Your employer should have some type of employee assistance program to help find you a therapist is network. Maybe even get free sessions.
