Hey,

You are just going through an episode of self-destruction and you will come through it! Is there anything you can do to channel your energies, rather than hurt yourself? I used to be a risk taker, drug taker, sexually promiscuous, then one day I just stopped and studied instead... however, I am going through a bad depressed state right now!! Such a vicious circle isn't it!

Wishing you the best! xx

Casey I am sorry to hear you feeling as you do, it must feel pretty bad for you to attempt suicide.

have you got any support from your gp or a mental heath team?

you need to talk to someone about things,

if you feel you can, please call the samaritans, they can help just by listening.

Please keep coming on here and talking, its not easy to do and I'm proud of you or being able to do so.

Did you go into hospital after taking all those paracetamols? if not, please consider going and get checked out.

please keep in touch and let us know how you are, you are important to us and we care.

people come on her at different times, or days, but your posts will be read. not everyonewho reads will feel able to answer, but they will be thinking of you and understand, many will identify with how you are feeling.

regards,

sandra.

Hi

I'm so sorry you are feeling bad enough to want to take your own life. I'm glad you were not successful although one time you may kill yourself by mistake. What is missing in your life that makes it so empty? If you can share your feelings about that you may find the suicidal feelings diminish a little.

So sorry you are feeling so bad but pleased the attempt failed. Sounds like you need some sort of support. can you see your GP or a mental health team. I hope so. Just remember you have lots of support on here and people are on all different times, like me in NZ now, when it's your bedtimes over there. Hang on in there and get some help. We don't want to lose you. Love and (((Hugs)))). xx

My heart breaks for you. I can empathise with you a bit although I've never tried suicide even though I have & still think about it often. I would hurt too many people if I did. You need to think of them too.

I went on self destruct phases doing things I should'nt have & still feel so ashamed but at the time I felt I was trying to make myself happy. Now I find happiness in reading when I can concentrate. I find it takes me to another place.

Do try get help for yourself. We are like a big family here suffering the same in one way or another.

Luv & Hugs

See a counsellor, who does inner child work, your answers mightbe there!! You need to see your gp. Did you have a wonderful childhood?

If you've failed 5 times don't you see that as a sign that there's a reason for you to be on this planet?

Start spending your time looking for your calling rather than harming yourself.

No, I'm not a church going Christian, I'm a pagan and yes, I've been there too, my first attempt at the age of 12/13. Now I'm 56 and keep on finding even the smallest of reasons - even if they're only temporary cos nothing is forever. I'm scarred both inside and outside but try not to focus on that.

Please - you were given life for a reason!

Not what you're looking for?
