Ever thought about doing it? Why? what stopped you?

mostly girl-related, god i feel pathetic now
these days it's more likely to be involving general irritation with the absence of any real place to go with life
generally i stopped because i couldn't think of a good way to do it that would still leave organs for donation, and yet wouldn't be painful
my best friend almost committed suicide.... took pills and then her parents found out and made her throw them back up
again, you aren't having suicidal thoughts are you?
I suddenly thought 'I may as well just kill myself' It was because I don't have belief in afterlife, or that we are here for any reason. A split second later I caught myself and pulled myself together - but I was shocked at how easy it is to think like that!
But ive chucked them all now and i dnt see him any more.
I'd probably text my suicide message to all my friends and family, and make a big anouncement on the internet.
Then I'd probably take pills (painless), or I might cut my wrists (more blood
I'd do all this at school.
That would be an eventful day
But yeah, like I said... still got a few stuff I need to do before I die.
that was not clever. i advise you to change that post.
donededone. I read somewhere a while back there was a forum online about suicide and all these people gave each other hints on how to! Scary!
You obviously wouldnt want to kill yourself then because people who want to kill themselves do it quietly.
My reasons were a past history that had started to haunt me, and pressures and bullying at a new school, blown out of all proportion through thinking about them too much.
I was physically stopped by someone who walked in, and then talked sense at by a teacher until I was 'back to normal'.
Every now and then, when I'm having a morose phase, I still wonder if the world wouldn't have been better off if I'd managed to go through with it, but in general, I know better now.
Thats just twats.
not necessairly. suicide and attempted suicide (for the failures of the group) seem to be the popular thing in this town. granted theres not much else to do so hey, why not. some people do it quietly, you read about it a couple days later in the obituaries and think, damn, they are dead, huh. but then others make a nice scene out of it. you get the "popular" girls with the "horrible" lifes who slit their wrists and end in the hospital because they must have not been cool enough to go thru with it. you get the guy that shot himself while he was getting pulled over and the cop was only feet away, or the kid who made a huge scene infront of the texaco where the cops had to be called and a fucking negotaiter was brought out, but he shot himself anyways so it was all a waste. or the guy who jumped off a bridge into the river and screamed "help" on the way down as he flailed his arms. people do it and think about it in different ways. its not all kept on the downlow. hardly ever. you see somebody who is eventually going to kill themselves and you can see the signs.
I also changed my way of thinking from irrational to rational.
I think what Lisa means is when someone wants to die they don't want to advertise the fact in case someone tries to stop them. I know what you mean though - but I had assumed that the people who really did want to end their lives did it without telling a lot of people. There are cases when people want people to know they're going to die, I guess
People who use pills, poisons or knives are just showmen who don't realy want to die.
Bollocks
I never said I would commit suicide, but if I did I'd want to make a big deal out of it. Something that says "look what you've driven me to you bastards!"
But would that actually be an escape or just the ultimate attempt at revenge? Either way I've seen how even kids are and if they hated you in real life chances are they'll laugh at you if you killed yourself for their sake. (when I say you, I don't mean you personally) It's a tough world and some people are getting softer but some are becoming more coldhearted than before - killing for loose change and the like.
i know someone who when they were 19 after a bad break up with a girlfriend he tried to OD on pills - he was on a pump for a week or something. then when he was about 50 he had a heart attack and is now on heart drugs permenently because of the damage the overdose did to him when he was younger.
lifes too short to bother killing yourself. may as well just enjoy life because tomorrow it might be gone anyway!
Revenge is the point. I'd much rather kill someone else than myself. If they hated me that's their problem, and if they laugh who gives a shit. If I hated them, I'd be laughing at them while I stand over their dead bodies. If I die in the process of a killing spree then it doesn't really matter.
Are you saying that someone in my familiy should have seen the SIGNS that my dad was gonna do it?!!
Some people are very clever & plan every detail & DONT let people know.
very seconded.
Heh I've always wondered about that actually - to go out in style. But I wouldn't want to cause unnecesary suffering. More of a heroes thing would suit me, like diving into a river to save a drowning kid.
I just like the glory
