Depression Understood Forums

Unfortunately, I have now started having suicidal thoughts. I keep wanting to kill myself for reasons even I can't figure out. I have even started searching for different methods of suicide and I actually have something I could use. My friends are starting to help more now but I'm scared that it won't be enough. Are there any good websites or techniques you could suggest? It would be very greatly appreciated. I just want to be normal again. Please help

You know, I Googled "best ways to kill yourself" one time (years ago) and I found a website that had all my options laid out for me. Perfect, I thought! Near the end, there is a blurb that makes you completely change your mind about killing yourself at all. Sneaky, eh? Pretty good idea, too. Hell, I wasn't really going to do it, anyway. I think I knew it deep down. People who wanna die...they just do it. They don't Google it.

Long story short - don't kill yourself. That's all I can say. Find hope. You're dealing with crap and it sucks. And so are a lot of other people. Do you think they'll get through it? Do you wish them the best? I hope you do - that's compassion, and it's a gem.

Start thinking you'll get through it. Wish the best for yourself. Be compassionate towards yourself. If you can't find a reason to live, then find a reason not to die. At least that's a start.
