    I guess the best thing you cold say is that life may not be long in the long run but how can you know how things are going to be if you dont live and find out? things change on the drop of a dime for better or for worse so you just gotta see it through and find out whats in store for you.

    I honestly don't think I've ever felt that I'd be better off dead. I just wish that I'd be left completely alone whenever I'm depressed, that I could live on my own rules, without anything depending on me. The thought that I'd cease existing scares the crap out of me. I don't know is it because I value life itself so much, or because I've never been depressed 'enough' to consider it, but suicide had never been an option for me.​

    Well I'll be honest even though I'm not happy saying it. I've felt a lot of times that life would be better without me, but would I do it? Never. It's not worth it. I'm still trying to find the meaning of life. Things seem complicating.

    Who knows? I mean for all I know, I could be making it complicating for myself. For what ever reason, I feel I'm stuck. I know for a fact that taking my life would be really wrong. I think everyone truly has a low point in their life. In the end, it's a matter of who can handle it.

    I believe you said your friend is going through this issue right now. My advice is to just let them know how much you care for them. Do what ever you can to show them you appreciation, but don't irritate them about the matter.

    I had a friend who wanted to kill himself because everyone at school was mean to him. He refused to go anywhere for any help and he continued getting more upset, mad, and scared. I was really upset about it and I talked to everyone who was mean to him and they didn't care. Finally, he decided not to kill himself because he knew I cared about him and was willing to help him get the help he needed. My advice is to try and get as much help for your friend as possible and make sure they know you care about them.

    Suicide is no laughing matter! This, in my opinion, is bigger than any of us. If your friend is serious, I strongly advise you to tell someone who is capable of resolving this issue. I lost my friend David 9 years ago to suicide because we all thought he was joking. When we finally figured out that he was serious, it was too late. We got a phone call saying that he had hanged himself. That weight of guilt still remains.

    Chances are, if they told you they want to commit suicide or are going to, they most likely won't. If they REALLY wanted to, they'd simply just do it.

    Yeah, I also had my share of depression issues and suicidal thoughts. I know many people with argue with me for saying this, but I really think suicide should be dealt with a more open-minded view: If a person wants to die, let them, it was their choice after all. No one should suffer against their will. I know just how desperate these people really are and how bad it hurts, and sometimes there is simply no hope of getting them out of their pain, they'll just keep on hurting while they're alive. They do it because they believe it will ultimately end their pain: What if it's true? Even if "God" exists, if "He" really is as kind and merciful as they say, wouldn't "He" really end their suffering, even if it's a sin (a very understandable sin, in my opinion)? I think euthanasia should be allowed for those that wish to go through it. But no, people are too ignorant to accept and respect that kind of decision. Really sad.

    My advice is that, before you attempt it, you should think very deeply about the people that will be affected by your death. Your family, your friends, everyone you think of that you might be important to. You are very wrong if you think nobody would be saddened by your death: Depending on how close they are for you, they will spend every day, every night, every single walking moment wondering why, and blaming themselves for not being able to help. Some of them might become depressed and even do the same as you did... Do they really deserve to go through all that suffering? Please consider this before you do it. You might also want to send an email to The Samaritans or posting on the Suicide Forum (search for them on Google).

    I've THOUGHT about what would happen if I did and how I would do it.

    But I would never commit suicide.

    I'm sure it's been said but since this was bumpity bumped I'm going to post.

    Honestly, yeah I have. Quite a few times. I never had the best life, but guess what? I got over it and now everything is great. The same goes with most over-dramatic people who threaten suicide. As probably said earlier, most people who threaten suicide don't do it and just want attention. That is compeltely 100% true. The reasoning being that people who threaten it want to be stopped unlike those who really want death and do it without warning. If you want to help your friend just be a bit nicer to them for abotu a week then ween them back to normal amount of care you give them. They don't need to get used to a constant pity parties or attention. They hoenstly need to grow up because suicide is the most pathetic, stupidest, and most hypocritical thought their is.
