I committed suicide and the most painful part is waking up still alive and see your love ones crying .. Once you did it once it will still keep coming back to your mind .. All i did is Pray .. Pray .. Pray and talk to someones else trusted ..

It is one of the hardest things to do...getting out of the mindset of suicide. I believe and know from experience, one suicide thought ALWAYS becomes more than one. Once you get into that pattern you cannot necessarily stop yourself from thinking about suicide, but you can, over time and with help, lessen the intensity of the feeling of wanting to take your life. I do agree that it took a long time to get into the state of mind that you are in when you have these thoughts so it will take just as equal if not more time to lessen the intensity of the feelings, if not banish them all together. What is helping me currently is realizing that my method of suicide (taking pills) makes me feel worse, is going to make me, if it has not already, develop an addition problem in addition to the one I have. I also try to convince myself that "this too shall pass." I know it is HARD. Getting out of the mindset you are in which leads to have suicidal thoughts in the first place is a challenge. A DAILY challenge. But we got to try to keep going as best as we can and really and truly focus on our selves and our well being.

This article lifted my spirit. Thank you.

I need to heed my own advice...taking the risk of sounding like a hypocrite, however I constantly remind myself of two things. 1) If worst comes to worst, the suicide option will still be there tomorrow. Or in an hour, or whatever. Perhaps not very positive, but true. Any number of things could happen in the interim that just may inspire you to reconsider that exit strategy. 2.) I know that this can be incredibly difficult to believe, particularly when you're already in that "tunnel vision" state, however, it really can be or get EVEN WORSE. Everyone has a different threshold for psychic pain...no matter what yours happens to be, look back at all that you've already conquered. How long have you been surviving your current crisis situation? No matter the answer, give yourself some credit -you're tougher than you think, Sweetpea!

This article changed my mind. I put the pills back on the shelf. One more year. Thank you.

Waiting a year sounds good but some people cannot see past a day when they have suicidal thoughts. If you feel you cannot make it a year. Try a day first. Then two days, and so forth. If you are feeling extra strong, try a week. Baby steps are important in managing and recovery from a mental health illness. Try thinking about this... If you can...Imagine the story you would tell people one day about your journey through all this darkness. Imagine making it to the other side of your illness and looking back on all the ups and mostly the downs you had through all this and realizing you finally made it. Another thought too is too remember as I said earlier one suicide thought ALWAYS leads to another. If you were strong enough to make it through the last suicide attempt to be able to attempt again, perhaps just maybe you are a lot stronger than you think and perhaps LIFE is not so so bad...hope this helps! :)

We're all here for a reason and the time hasn't come yet to discover your purpose in life. We all have a purpose and a path that we have to follow in order to become who we are meant to be. Committing suicide eliminates the opportunity of ever living your best life possible. Give life a chance. No one ever said life was going to be easy. What you are going through is temporary. Don't give up. Ever. You matter more than you know.
