I'm not proud of that... but I haven't attempted since August though and I'm getting better now =] So... that's good... People that do it just need to seek help, or if they don't want it, others may need to do it for them... Yeah, my friends kinda forced me to go to an adult. And now the teacher told this other teacher who is telling me I have to tell my parents.

Getting help really sucks at the beginning, but eventually you'll feel better about yourself =] I'm proud of myself, even just the fact I'm still HERE. I feel like a stronger person already and I'm not even finished my treatment ^_^

My fear is like someone I know commiting suicide because once I kinda knew someone who did and I was a freakin' mess, ended up with manic depression and it was so so horrible. I didn't really know him but I think I got affected the worst and then I had to start a new school and arghhh such a horrible time, it affects people who you don't think it'll affect that's for sure. same here. recently a friend of a friend did it, i wasnt so badly affected coz i didnt know him, but seeing what it did to my friend, it was terrible. She didnt try anything yet but im keeping an eye on her.
adrea Jackass Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 1323	January 27th, 2007 at 05:58am Once I heard a statistic that 1 in 3 people get depressed at least one stage in their lives. Saying that, I have to point out that sadness and depression are two totally different things. Depression is something mental, and it doesn't take something in perticular to make you feel this way but being sad an emotion and reaction of an event that happened. Putting that aside, I still can't believe that 2 in 3 people have never gotten depressed. Of course I've thought of suicide and have cut myself, not to fit into a stereotype, but because its how I truely thought I felt at the time, seeing cutting as a way to release anger and self-hate onto my body. If I wanted it for attention, I'd do it so friends and family could be aware of it, I wouldn't hide it. I still feel that I get upset sometimes, and want to self harm or kill myself, but it's just a matter of how you deal with it. Lately when I get these feelings, I put it all behind me and remind myself to let everything happen as it comes and have a more overall carefree outlook on everything. (Which sometime's gets on peoples nerves, but stuff them)

Good question. K, sorry Emo princess. I don't want to laugh at you and worsen your situation. You need to follow what these other people did and talk about it to someone you trust. A friend, an adult, whatever. You dying isn't going to help anyone.

GD Addicts Anonymous Falling In Love With The Board Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 5896	February 3rd, 2007 at 01:24am I've only seriously considered committing suicide once or twice in my life, but tonight I did again. I've felt like I didn't want to live anymore on several occasions, but when I think about it, I know I won't kill myself because I'm too chicken and it's not worth it in my opinion.

davey jones. Falling In Love With The Board Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 7018	February 5th, 2007 at 06:34pm I used to not understand why people commit suicide. Now I do. I don't look at them as weak or selfish, because I understand what they feel, because sometimes, that's how I feel. I think it's natural for a human being to explore what suicide and self harm is like; how to do it, when, where, etc. And that people who do consider taking action are not alone in this world, but may feel that way.
KiSS thIs Shoot Me, I'm A Newbie Age: - Gender: - Posts: 5	February 5th, 2007 at 11:12pm i dunno, i reckon suicide is ok if the person is in constant, unbearable pain. its ur life, so i guess u should b able to choose, having said that however, this "emo" fad that appears 2b taking over our generation is bullshit. i know ppl who cut themselves for attention, or to fit into the emo stereotype. and its just that, a stereotype. it is NOT punk. or hardcore. not cool.

spill_no_sick Falling In Love With The Board Age: 31 Gender: - Posts: 8588	February 6th, 2007 at 05:52pm Micro Sheep.: how can you put away the emotional pain by physical pain? i still can't understand that. you want to know a little secret? you can trust my little secret because -I used to abuse myself alot -burning with lighters -scratching skin until it bled -beating myself -and I still cut (I didn't for two weeks but I slipped up yesterday -I have attempted suicide twice -I've been diagnosed and untreated for Bipolar II -I'm still suicidal and now time for my little secret there is no explanation that's simply it self-destructive behavior will NEVER have a reason or solution maybe because people of this nature or more individual than anyone else and so you cannot categorize their actions better than categorizing why you all DON'T hurt yourself there's simply no explanation you can ask others and they can tell you but understand that is strictly their reason not anyone else's (unless they're bullshitting or following the crowd in which case you can kill the bastards because it's making suicide seem less important to society and there are people out there who are really hurting
Anji Basket Case Age: 35 Gender: Female Posts: 15914	February 9th, 2007 at 12:28pm OK, I'm adding something here. Tuesday morning, here in Bangkok, my friend's father killed the family's youngest, a little five year old boy by releasing him off the balcony. He then took a gun, and shot my friend's mum, my friend, and her brother. Each of them, twice in the head, in their sleep. Her father then turned the gun on himself and shot himself in the head too. I was unbelievably shocked to hear this, and I admit I cried my eyes out mostly because I didn't understand how a father could do that. A few hours ago I was actually at the funeral. Anyway, it was in the paper and the police have been updates the grandparents and some of us, her friends. Apparently, it seems as if each member of the family was given anesthetics. We already knew they had financial problems, but we didn't know how bad. Apparently, her father's business flopped and he ended up owing 100,000,000 baht to an Indian loan shark. Now, the law is that if the debt is not paid and the person dies, the loan is passed on to the remaining family, so I guess I understand a bit about why this happened. I still don't forgive him for doing that though. Nobody should have to die like that.
spill_no_sick Falling In Love With The Board Age: 31 Gender: - Posts: 8588	February 9th, 2007 at 03:24pm that's one situation where suicide is completely selfish all the Bill Dwyers and Enron employees of the world are fucking selfish for that I understand that logic and it's just fucking selfish
Anji Basket Case Age: 35 Gender: Female Posts: 15914	February 10th, 2007 at 10:45am spill_no_sick: that's one situation where suicide is completely selfish all the Bill Dwyers and Enron employees of the world are fucking selfish for that I understand that logic and it's just fucking selfish I know. Nobody should ever die like that. Even if the debt would be placed on the rest of the family, it's just she never did anything wrong and I can't believe she had to go. We were supposed to be uni partners. She got accepted to Cambridge the last week.
