you are worth it. i sm worth it too but im going to die anyway, as i cant take it anymore.

Unfortunatly I feel the same way.:'(


I don't know if it helps but there is always a new day to put a smile on.

yes you are both worth it. but trying can be like riding the stationary bike, we look down and we are still in the same place. its very hard and frustrating. i would encourage you to keep looking for other ways to deal with your pain. i think most of us just want things to be better, some peace, not really to die. but i know your feelings as im often on that edge.

flute you must be young, i think you have to say to yourself, that you need to give this more time. you have many options as you grow up and become an adult. life for some is harder than others, it may level out for you, you may find someone that gives you strength and makes you feel youd never want to leave this earth for the joy you feel.

please dont do anything rash, patternskies, form the groups you are in, it sounds like you have had a terrible struggle. but i still hope you will find it within you to not act on any of the intense feelings you may be having. i have them too, im not talking from no experience here. i know all the feelings so well. but i do keep punching though sometimes i feel it wont get better. and i have my pets that i love and i feel i cant leave them as they need me. but they are all i have, no one else. not a soul that would miss me, care or call me if i were ill , or suicidal.

maybe nothing ive said has had any impact, but i do care and remember that.

You both are worth it. Everyone deserves to be happy. Sometimes that takes a little longer for some of to achieve. Just try and think of one thing each day that you are thankful for. I am thankful that I was able to talk to you both tonight to tell you ookfine is right.
Those of us on here at D>S think you are worth it and are here for you. I know that things we have gone through sometimes are hard to let us go and drag us down but we have to fight and try to deal with it and find a way to release it so we can win. We cannot let those who brougth us to this point win. You need to push through and fight back. You both ARE WORTH IT.
Just one thing positive, just thankful for one thing each day :)

We are all going to die, eventually, with old age. This is what might be, for some, the price of life. I try (key word, try) to always keep in mind that I never had to pay anything for being born. Everything we experience through life is only transient. This stated, savor every lasting moment of peace and happiness. This is no price for your life, mine or anyone's life; we are priceless. It would be selfish to simply end a life. Think of how many other people near that person would be effected with severe depression themselves. They might eventually go on to take an easy path as well with the noose, drugs or whatever form of self-destruction they choose. No amount of money would buy that person back. As a side comment, my two dogs are saving my life. Without Colt and Mei I do not know if could smile ever again. Slowly I am learning to enjoy the mysteries of life and reversing how jaded I have become at such a young age.

Look for the signs of God's presence. 'God will help [you] at break of day.' (Psalm 46:5 NIV) Daybreak, a symbol of new beginnings, gives you confidence that beyond this time of trouble and testing, a new day is at hand. 'Great is His faithfulness; His mercies begin afresh each morning.' (Lamentations 3:23 NLT)

The price of this life is eternity in heaven!

I attended a funeral last weekend of a 19-yr-old young man who committed suicide. It was devastating to his family. The church was packed with his schoolmates. If only he could have seen how much of an impact he had on other people's lives.

You matter. Right now you can't see through the fog, but you matter. Don't make any rash decisions. (hugs)

Just disapearing would be nice. :(

You have to hang in there. One thing about life is, it changes. I was depressed and suicidal a few months ago. I had to fight very hard and had a good T and good Dr. -- they helped me through it. Now everyday doesn't seem soo hard and in fact once in a while I even enjoy life. Reach out to someone that can help you. It is worth it.

She was 20 yrs old when she decided that life was too hard and killed herself. She died on Mothers day of 1988 and as I am typing this I have tears pouring down my face. One of our customers at work killed himself today and he was only 19 and it just brings it all back like it is happening to me again. My sister was a happy person. Intelligent and very kind. The thing about suicide is that they seem to forget that people love them and would do anything to get them through the pain they are feeling. I would give anything to have her back. I still miss her so much and the pain she was feeling was nothing to the pain I have gone through since she left me. Suicide is inconsiderate and very painful. And I know that life is suppose to teach you but what is the lesson here. I haven't learned anything but instead have become bitter and don't trust anyone. To anyone who is contemplating killing themselves please stop and think. The pain you are feeling will go away but your loved ones will never be the same again.

i just got that from yr link Thomas. 'The thing about suicide is that they seem to forget that people love them and would do anything to get them through the pain they are feeling.'' the ppl i know wont do anything to help me get thru the pain im feeling.

i dont undertsand hopw ppl say suicide is a selfish act. yes it hurts their loved ones, but what about the pain that the suicidal person is going through? what do we do about that? if that person who is suicidal continues to live, they will still be in the same pain...sure the feelings may fade but then they come back aagin...and that suicidal person is just hanging around annoying everyone...so what do we do about that? noone has any answers. i dont believe that ppl who dont experience depression have any right commenting on it, as they have no idea of the excruciating (sp) pain it puts you through.

and i dont believe god can help me, as im not religious.

Well said pattern. Although, I tried to commit suicide once and to this day I still think it was a stupid idea. Although I am severely depressed I have the smallest belief or feeling or hope (or something?) that with the proper medication/treatment and time that life will once again be worth living. I remember what is was like to enjoy life and simply live. The thought of someday returning to that state of mind is enough for me to keep trudging on; as painful as it may be. Additionally, if someone notices one of their loved ones IS suicidal they should immediately be admitted to ER and better yet, a psych facility. After my last experience there I won't contemplate taking my life simply because I might have to spend another week in useless group/art therapy sessions, away from the things that I love.

i tried to commit suicide once and went to hospital and wasnt admitted to a psych ward...as i wasnt 'bad enuff'', since that time things have gotten alot better, now i still have suicidal thoughts, its only since turning 30 have i ever had these...i was having them last week. i have found this thing called theta healing which had helped me loads...i am calmer today than when i was on the weekend, but where to now?

Yes you are worth it. It just doesn't feel like it because of the depression. I've had thoughts of ending it all but in reality couldn't go through with it. It 'will' pass, believe it or not. I'm worth it too but don't 'feel' like I am.
