I have a quick question. I have been debating suicide since January and am wondering if I should do it. I mean, of course I shouldn't but I cannot get these dang obsessions out of my mind. I really need someone to talk to. I don't know, I guess I am just crazy. It also scares me that I might just be doing this to gain attention. This freaks me out b/c I hate attention and being the center of it.

No-one here is gonna say 'top yerself' (thank fuck or i'd have been a goner weeks ago)
If it gets real bad, have yourself admitted to hospital (not sure how it works in the US)
I'm a lot older than you, but I've had those thoughts recently as well. I can't go through with it, though, because of what it would do to my family. I just can't hurt them like that or fill them with the guilt they would feel. If you're a student at a college, I strongly suggest that you go to their counseling center. I was in counseling at my University all the time I was in grad school after I got divorced. Those people saved me. I just joined this community tonight, and I'm glad I did. I don't feel so alone anymore, just knowing that are other souls out there who are suffering like me. Let's all hug each other. We all are good people who just need a lot of love and understanding.
Look how much support u have received, and i want u to know that u can message me, also. my daughter lost someone last Dec. to suicide, and i have seen the pain it has caused his family, as well as my daughter; I don't think u r doing it for attention, and neither do the people who just replied; you do need to talk to a counselor, and see what options are available for u, to get in the right frame of mind.
Thinkers are notorious and it is possible to change what you think, how you think and how you think about things. It takes work though.
If you must obsess, try obsessing about something that is less harmful.
