Random Suicidal Thoughts

[Minileah1218]

I was off my meds for somewhere around 2-3 days. I took it yesterday & today & I’m finally getting the sensation like I’m not even on meds. I’ve thought about killing myself all day, not to mention how depressed I feel. Does this happen to anyone else? My life has been so good recently so I feel there’s no reason for me to be this upset. These random feelings of hopelessness & despair are horrible & so unpredictable. Does this happen to anybody else when they miss a couple days of medication?

Yes this happens. I would remember one thing I like to tell people and like to share with everyone when it comes to suicidal thoughts. Just remember Feelings change all the time. Which is why they can not be trusted. Especially if they are based on thoughts that lie to us. So these thoughts come and go but are lies . Getting regularly back on meds, talking to your doctor will help. Hope this helps. Hang in there

Hi sweety. I have suicidal ideations almost daily. But they are just ideations. What stops me? My faith, my family and my fur baby. And don't ever start putting in your head that no one would miss you because I lost my boys dad to suicide and they paid dearly for his actions. Whatever you are going through will pass. We all have really good days and really really bad days. Was the medication helping when you took it faithfully? If it did, then starting up again may take a while to rebuild in your system. Don't you ever give up on yourself or life! You are loved and needed. And stay out of your head! Sometimes the worst place I can be is in my own mind!

You are one strong person and keep up the faith. Me too I’m on board with you. Suicide affects and hurts everyone. It must of been difficult for you’ and your boys. But yet you are here passing on a great message to someone who is obviously hurting inside. I want to say thank you to you. And my condolences as well.....you are very courageous person and don’t stop where you are at now in your life. God is good no matter what. Remember he will get you through anything it’s just hard sometimes we feel that way than other times we don’t we feel that way. We forget about Him.

My Therapist is a retired pastor and when I said to him, "God only gives us what we can handle" he replied, "actually You can do anything through Christ who strengthens you".. I said, " I should have known that since I have Phillipian 4:13 on my right arm!!" Thank you so much for your kind words.
