Thoughts... Mood
Tuesday, October 13, 2009 | A Call For Help story

As I was walking today, I suddenly started to have thoughts about suicide... I was feeling perfectly calm, and then these thoughts just came into my mind. I started weighing the pros and cons of dying, thinking about how to I could do it... This is really scaring me... I've never just started thinking about suicide when I was feeling so calm, or when there really wasn't anything going on...

Last night, I started scratching at my arm; I didn't even realize that I was doing anything. My uncle kept drawing my attention to it, asking me if I was scratching myself, but I didn't really even comprehend that. I've never really had that happen either...

I don't know what's causing this, and I'm scared... I don't know what to do right now; I'm feeling pretty sure that I can stay safe, but what if the thoughts get stronger or more intense? I've thought about maybe telling my uncle, but that scares me too. I don't know how he would react if I told him that I was starting to have thoughts of suicide, even to the point where I was considering how it could be done... I know he's really stressed out right now, and I don't want him to worry, and I just really don't know what to do...

    Alice,
    I did end up telling my uncle, and I e-mailed my counselor last night, and I'm supposed to be meeting with her tomorrow. So, she is aware of what's going on right now...
    I hope we can talk soon.
