I have been thinking alot lately about suicide, everyday a little more, thinking of how why carry on when yes things could get better but they might not, they could even get worse.
I've been talking myself out of being scared of dying and comparing how much better it would be to living and I have even been thinking about if my family could ever forgive me.
In all honesty I'm scared but almost accepting of it.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
. don;\'t give upwe are here.
Please get help. I have had the suicide spirit follow me for days on end, and yes it sounded like sweet relief, but I was able to shake it off, and never got serious thank God.
You have no idea what a BAD idea suicide is. My brother committed suicide almost one year ago. 11/17/06...I can't believe the anniversary is coming up so fast. When I got the call just before 4 in the morning, I had sounds coming out of me that I never made before. I was so loud, I ran outside so that my children wouldn't wake to such awful sounds coming from me. As someone who has been HURT by suicide, I say to you to do whatever you need to do to shake it. Go to the ER, call the National Suicide Hotline. Something. I'll give you my home number if you like. Life is so much more than all the things we worry about, like being skinny, getting more money, finding love. I am glad you have said that you have a family that loves you (by the fact that you would want their forgiveness). So, that last one is already started - you have people to love you.
You are meant to be here. You are meant to do and say things here on this earth. But most of all, you have no idea what it will do to those you have left behind. Anyone can talk to me about this, and I will give them all the time of day that they want. But most of all: Everyone wonders if those who commit suicide ever said anything first. YES. They do. My brother mentioned it to me during the last year he was alive. I can't tell you how much I miss him. How much I just want to talk to him...And yes he had problems but that wasn't the answer - not the correct answer. Not the good answer. I can't believe I have to live something like 30-40 more years here without him..... PS: I realized what those sounds were coming out of me when I got the call about my brother's suicide. It was the sound of crying with all my heart. I guess I'd never really done that before. Again, please get help with those suicidal thoughts. I care about you!! Please don't do it.
Think about a year ago today. Weren't things different? Well things will be different a year from today. And you don't know what wonderful things you'll miss out on. Don't let the suicide spirit whisper in your ear. You're better than that ending!
I can tell you more things that it will do to your family.... but you tell me if you want to know.
Again, I send out a big {{hug}} to you and tell you please, put it out of your head and make GOOD plans with your life. You are a precious person and SO WORTH IT!!!!!
you are worth every breath you take, there is ALWAYS hope - don't forget that.
and i have to say, the most horrid pain that your family will ever feel will be if you take your life. do you really want to put them through that? i KNOW you don't.
Please - no suicide. Don't you just want to feel better? There are other ways to feel better & you WILL find them.
My mother killed herself when I was 15 leaving behind 6 kids & a wonderful husband.
She had a tough life but things got better, the kids grew up & my father re-married & had a peaceful happy life with another woman for the next 25 years until his passing. Those years could have been hers.
Please listen to us survivors.
We all want you to live.
I just wanted to say thank you to everyone I may not be cured but things are in better perspective.
Like the others have said.. things will get better.
