Suicide

[foxfreestyle88]

Has anyone lost someone to suicide?

[DCfreak]

pretty sure there was just a thread made where atleast 3 people explained said situation.

[foxfreestyle88]

sorry im new to this

[Hamlet]

One guy I knew, but not very well. He was pretty much the nerdiest guy I ever knew. Really socially awkward too. I played him in a couple of games of chess in the chess club in high school, but never really talked to him. He always looked weird to me. Skinny. Thick glasses. Face like a rat.

He was two years into a degree in computer programming, then about six months ago I get a text message from the train service I use (they send me them usually when trains are delayed, which is often...):

The next day I find out it was him, he went out in the middle of the night and sat on the tracks.

[foxfreestyle88]

its different when it was your best friend...

[mattybobviously]

At the end of the day, it's a selfish move.

[foxfreestyle88]

if you can hold on till the end of the day

[Smash Adams]

if you kill yourself you two will be together in heaven

but seriously

Bitch. I hated her anyway.

[foxfreestyle88]

Smash Adams...thank you this sounds pathetic but you made my day...but i cant kill myself

[Smash Adams]

Smash Adams...thank you this sounds pathetic but you made my day...but i cant kill myself

you're very welcome
I've never been in this situation, someone in my grade killed himself but weren't friends, and I'm sure someone being nice is what you need and I'm glad I can do it

[foxfreestyle88]

...i need a friend...

[atticus1492]

I lost myself to suicide.

[llwilliamsll]

...i need sex...

[thetrueblood]

if some one committed suicide, I never would admit he was my friend.

[blooshoo]

if some one committed suicide, I never would admit he was my friend.
ok.. that's odd. and kind of shameful.

[Thug_Nasty]

if some one committed suicide, I never would admit he was my friend.
hahahah fair enough

[worthwaiting]

All my friends are against suicide so no. But there has been quite a lot cases of suicide near where I live.. and all committed by young guys. One hung himself in the park opposite my school.

[Thug_Nasty]

one guy in the neighborhood next to mine hung himself in a tree in his front yard and his five year old son was the one who found him. so anyone who drove by saw a dead guy hanging in a tree

[doomcrs04]

Suicide isnt worth it. Its a sad thing when it happens. But you always got to look to the future, Although you may be in bad shit you got a life in front of you and it will get better.

[absolutecrunk]

I lost myself to suicide.
Ahahaha yessss

[CrazyRockGirl]

nope not yet...I'm so amazed that I haven't even attempted it yet...especially last year while I was still in high school but now that I'm out of high school things seem to be getting better now

[MidCal]

Has anyone lost someone to suicide?

My father commited suicide a year ago Dec 29th. He had been suffering from a severe case of depression. It was probably the hardest thing I've gone through in my life so far. To me, suicide is the worst way to lose someone you love.

[SaoMattie]

A friend of mine who I was close with before college killed himself about this time last year. That was probably the worst phone call I've ever gotten. I still don't know how I feel about the whole situation, I never would have seen it coming.

[absolutealexx]

I lost a friend of mine last year when he hung himself in a jail cell 3 days before he was about to get out of jail.

It's 'hanged', by the way.

:drew:

[theguilt engine]

My uncle committed suicide by the "car in garage" method. It was devastating to us all...I could hardly bare it. My dad was a mess...it was a rough time for all of us. Suicide is so terrible because it was always unexpected.

[micahistheballs]

I knew someone who tried to kill themself by hanging themself from a tree, but the branch broke.

I never know how to interpret a failed suicide attempt. Whether it's destiny or failure in a sense.

[inCinerate.1028]

look at it this way. if you think your life is a waste and want to die, dont. because then who will serve my fries at mcdonalds?

[SonEric84]

yes i have lost someone to suicide....my boyfried:-(



*Refrains from making the most horrible joke ever off of that typo.*

[Intertwined]

...i need a friend...

I'm here.

if some one committed suicide, I never would admit he was my friend.

You're a douche.

[lauren<3s music]

yes and it pretty much is one of the most awful things in the world. and as much as everyone tells you it will be better and all that bullshit, it takes a long fucking time to get over and it will hurt constantly. its fine to be angry and mad and upset and never let anyone tell you what/how to feel about it. and fuck you all who joke about this shit. its all fun and games until you lose someone you love

[SonEric84]

i ment my boyfriend (R.I.P. jason x)...it was a spelling mistake.


Well anyway, sorry about your loss. I'm actually not a jerk.

[demoniac_girl]

im against suicide.its the wrost way to lose someone u love.
3years ago, it was a thursday. my friend "a..." hanged himself in his room when he come back from school at 12pm .he was behaving strangely before his death:he was always alone,he rafused to stay with us (my friends and i).
when i knew that he killed himeself,i was shocked cuz i realised that i'll neve see him again...
he was really a good friend.he was funny.

[absolutealexx]

It's 'hanged', by the way.

I definetely said it the right way.

[open mind]

a buddy of mine hung himself because of a meth addiction, another drank himself to death with a mix of prescriptions and booze over a period of time.

That sounds like something out of a song or a movie.
That just gave me the fuckin' chills, dude. For serious.

My uncle was 28 when his longtime girlfriend left him, apparently, for no reason, and he ran his car in the garage.

The fucking worst part about it, though, is that during the investigation, based on where they found him, ect., they figured out that he had tried to make it back inside before he ran out of time.

That's horrible. None of my close friends have suceeded in commiting suicide yet. There was a guy who was a friend of the family who shot himself in his garage but I didn't really know him. The part of the story that actually struck me though was that he had a daughter who had no mother (she left him). His daughter was six. All I could think was what sort of person does that to his daughter.
I have a lot of very close friends who've tried to kill themself or who want/have wanted to. I had one friend who's best friend commited suicide by overdosing on sleeping pills and my friends held himself responsible for his friend's suicide and in turn tried to kill himself.

[PUNKrockNINJA]

...i need sex...
i second that.

[absolutealexx]

I haven't had a decent lay since 4 1/2 weeks ago.

[a speedo model]

My little brother's friend tried, twice. He's 14.

[llwilliamsll]

i second that.
what are you...like 12?

I haven't had a decent lay since 4 1/2 weeks ago.
don't post in other colors

[TxRepresent]

I haven't had a decent lay since 4 1/2 weeks ago.

Yeah posting in a different colour isn't going to help.

[absolutealexx]

Not to be rude, but what's wrong with typing in a different color?

[PUNKrockNINJA]

what are you...like 12?


don't post in other colors



actually no.. im 17 thank you..

[llwilliamsll]

Not to be rude, but what's wrong with typing in a different color?
it's obnoxious, trust me
actually no.. im 17 thank you..
well then, sex me up!

[PUNKrockNINJA]

it's obnoxious, trust me

well then, sex me up!


as long as you're not a paper bag bitch...

hmm.. where are you at?

[absolutealexx]

Yeah posting in a different colour isn't going to help.

[Yes. And?]

No, it can be spelled colour. That's how the british spell it.

[TxRepresent]

No, it can be spelled colour. That's how the british spell it.

Wow I actually agree with Yes. And?, and yeah you're fucking stupid.

[anamericangod]

I haven't had a decent lay since 4 1/2 weeks ago.

I doubt you've ever had a decent lay.

[joshy hizzle]

I haven't had a decent lay since 4 1/2 weeks ago.

Partially because you haven't slept with me.

[absolutealexx]

I doubt you've ever had a decent lay.

lol 95% have been very decent.

[chronomic]

At the end of the day, it's a selfish move.

agreed

[CandyDistructio]

My friend downed two bottles of Drain-O. It goes into your blood stream like water and then burns it whole way through making your intestines bleed. Was found by her husband, she had three kids the oldest was 15.

My best friends boyfriend. He overdosed on something, I didn't want to ask what, he was 16.

Depression is like a cancer of the brain. It overtakes you no matter how hard you fight it. People say suicide is selfish, they don't know the fuking feeling of wanting to kill your self so bad you attempt it. It's worse when you fail.
:skull:
I'm lucky a have lots of friends, otherwise I'd become quite lonely.

[Starbursting]

I lost my uncle to suicide, man.
Not cool at all.

[katekate]

My grandpa took his own life
(RIP)

It's such a horrible thing to go through.

[mcm1610]

I still fail to see how it is selfish.

If you don't have autonomy over your own body then what exactly do you have?
Because while you know that you're ending you're life, you neglect the people who actually do care when you remove your life from theirs. The loss of the suicidal person does have an effect on others.

[Dan CiTi]

Suicide would be fun.

[Plodbax]

My Sister tried to....

[GodHatezRapz]

I try on a daily basis... help plz

[GodHatezRapz]

ok no im serious... that last post is no joke. FUck this place on earth. take me to heavens god dammit.

[pinkluv13]

I haven't had a decent lay since 4 1/2 weeks ago.
don't do that :-)

[PadraicPrincess]

It's still your business though. Everything effects others but it is your right to control your life. Marrying a guy might make your father not like you but it's totally your call and not his.

K completely incomparable point you just made. And exactly-killing yourself is all about yourSELF, not about anyone else. That defines selfish . Selfish is not realizing the emotional, physical, mental impact in causes for everyone who DID cherish your life. To say it is not selfish is so incredibly wrong.

[fantasma]

i ment my boyfriend (R.I.P. jason x)...it was a spelling mistake.

http://imagecache2.allposters.com/images/131/039_JASONX.jpg

I am sorry for you loss.

[fantasma]

You must suck at it.

[live-to-carve]

I lost my uncle to suicide, man.
Not cool at all.

i get where your comming from...my uncle killed himself to when i was i think around 5

he jumped and we think he was on drugs

[speakhandsforme]

If suicide hadn't become a key component of a underground cultural movement, I don't think the actual practice would be so widespread in sometimes mild circumstances and seen with such distaste. When it's all said and done, it's one's own choice and no one elses'. I cannot conceive how someone can tell another that ending their own life is selfish: guilting another into extending their own personal hell just for you own convenience has to be considered worse.

[benjammun]

lol wut

[my9ridesshotgun]

when i was like 7 my mother shot herself.......

its strange cause thats the most vivid memory i have of her......

not seeing her dead really, but just of that night when it happened.......everything else i remember of her is all blurry and manipulated cause all the memories are just scenes ive created from stories ive heard about her.....i dont know whether to hate or love or forgive or forget her.....

and i know a few people who have attempted suicide...

it really is a terrible thing for ANYONE to deal with......

[animperfectcry]

At the end of the day, it's a selfish move.

some say it's a cop out...
I don't think it's entirely selfish...
and normally if the person is feeling low enough to end their life,
then obviously they are seriously lacking some goodness, kindness, support and love
from the ones around them....or they just have something that they hold inside and let grow.



I've had a friend kill himself.
I've stopped two people from killing themselves.

ppl who really want to die end it.
then there are ppl like I used to be...
who try and stop..because they just want help.


but seriously, I don't think it's just about being selfish.

[animperfectcry]

Because while you know that you're ending you're life, you neglect the people who actually do care when you remove your life from theirs. The loss of the suicidal person does have an effect on others.


yes. it has an affect on everyone involved.
but literally, depression is a mental disease.
once a person is diagnosed with depression,
that diagnosis stays with you for life...
even if you feel that you are 100% cured.
I was on meds for 3 years..
and just got off of them this past summer.
I've been fine. but seriously, it takes a lot of
courage and strength to get through recovery.
some people don't have a good enough support system..
others just feel too lost and hopeless to get through it.

I honestly don't know how I got through it.
you don't know how real depression is until you're
being hospitalized and you trapped with other adolescents
behind locked doors, going through group therapy, not being able to
have a hooded sweatshirt because ppl have suffocated themselves before,
not being able to have hair gel in your room because ppl have drank it before
to attempt suicide....having a locked bathroom so you don't try and hang yourself
with the shower curtain...

it's hard to deal with. because once you start healing...
it gets far far worse before it gets better.

[XPunkxRockxDeeX]

It's amazing how some people on here can be such assholes...But anyway...I've lost 7 friends to a suicide pact that 10 of us agreed to. I've tried more times than I can count...and it shows. Some people just have different lives and don't get it. Waking up and knowing that none of them are going to call me that day just kills me right off. Every time I close my eyes I see my best friend/brother being taken out on a strecher with a blanket over him; I could see his arms covered in blood and the gash in his wrist....One of the things you NEVER forget.

[scarykid2]

hah i no sum 1who committed suicide it was sad cuz no one relly expected it to happen well when he was yunger his mom left him with his alcholic father and his sex addicted twin,always getting girls, then there was him the gay(literaaly)outcast that felt that "nothing in the world made as much sense in this world then suicide" but no one knew the only thing i knew was he was upset cuz his dad wood hit him and he was experimenting with a variety of prescription drugs and then one night he had enuff and took too many and the day after they figured that it was suicide.
but the thing here is a lot of ppl that will commit suicide never act like they ever will nd in the end they hurt many ppl

So you told your friends that you would kill yourself with them, but instead just watched them die?

Lol. You are a sick fuck.

[simplelivin_GCH]

ok all this shit im reading about people saying suicide is selfish obviously havent experienced a deep depression. on the surface yeah it appears selfish and as if the person is taking the easy way out but sometimes you get so flooded with depression that you have no control over what you say or do until its too late. some people might not even do it on purpose its just what seems right at the time, almost like an impulsive decision and thats just really sad.

as for suicide pacts, thats fucking ridiculous...grow up and stop begging for attention

[pickett47]

I would never say that suicide is selfish, but I would say that we should all feel pretty ashamed that suicide is such a big problem. The ones who live on are pretty selfish. It's terrible that we can't be decent to each other, that people could ever feel so lonely and go without treatment. How much of this could we prevent by just giving a shit about each other?

yeha i totally agree with you on that but thats like saying hey if we were nice to each other we could all be happy and never fight wars....life can be a bitch sometimes, and so can some people

[DeadCityScars]

strawberry fields forever! living is easy with eyes closed. listen to that song high and you will no longer want to kill yourself for that brief period in time. suicide prevention, hit me up.

[DeadCityScars]

lol wut

[xZiggyStardustx]

There was a guy from my school who hung himself last sunday. Went to the funeral today, it was all very depressing and whatnot.

I hate it when people say its selfish. I thnk its pretty fucking selfish bitching about how he killed himself when someone actually felt like that was their only way out. Like caring about how "you" feel on his death more than the actual suicide its self.

[Intertwined]

...i need a friend...

Me too.

I lost myself to suicide.

Same.

[SealCubMassacre]

One of my friend's went to another friend's house and tried killing himself by drinking a whole bottle of Lenor (fabric softener). It failed and the other friend's mom made him buy a new bottle in the morning.

A guy across from my house hung himself after his fiance cheated on him.

My best friend's dad also hung himself after battling drug addiction. My friend has never admitted that is what happened, but I found out through a friend of the family.

[Alexxx]

Suicide is selfish.

[Bel7]

So I have a friend who tried to kill herself a number of times but before I was her friend and then about a month ago, I sign online and start talking to her. I then notice that her dp is an arm with a huge bleeding gash running from teh start of the wrist to almost the inside of the elbow. It was her arm.

[checkered.stars]

i lost a family friend to suicide a couple of months ago
watching the person fade away into depression with that feeling of helplessness is just as bad as their death. when someone you love committs suicide, you sort of feel a sense of guilt because you were unable to make them happy again, in order to save them

[RadioRomance]

I knew someone who tried to kill themself by hanging themself from a tree, but the branch broke.

I never know how to interpret a failed suicide attempt. Whether it's destiny or failure in a sense.

That's really something to think about.
"Failed suicide attempt" is the wrong term to use, IMO.

yeah, isn't the technical term parasuicide?

[XxJackiexStarxX]

Has anyone lost someone to suicide?
Well, I almost lost myself, and I almost lost my best friends Lydia, and Brisa.

[[[plaguer]]]

dude. im hella glad that i was super nieve back in the day. i attempted it because i was in an abusive relationship and was way depressed for a long time. the bastard even told me i should do it. he didnt even visit me in the hospital either. thank god i eventually got him out of my life. now though my life is so amazing and i couldnt be happier. hardly anyone from my hs knew i did it cuz of the way i am now. im comfortable being who i am and that makes me happy

[Antipope69]

Has anyone lost someone to suicide?

I've tried to kill my self twice in the past. Once when I was seven because I was tired of my dad beating on me and my mom and no one would listen or believe me. The second time was last year after I thought one of my best friends had stopped being my best friend, the last of course only after I got really fucked up later that night. But I don't think of them as the worst mistakes of my life, nor do I think of them as the only possible answer. I thought of them as the best answer at the time that were fast and easy. Suicide is kinda like saying to god "You can't fire me, i quit."

Which phrase the one about god?

[checkered.stars]

Which phrase the one about god?
yup

[Antipope69]

Well I made that up a while ago because these kids were arguing with me over the definition of suicide. So I came up with that because they were both christians and I thought It would make a lot of sense to them, it didn't.

[uhaul610]

My friend tried to kill himself and (thankfully) missed the vein but we still called an ambulance. That night was awful. We all (him, myself, my girlfriend and some friends) went to a party and all got drunk. My girlfriend passed out so my friend (who was hosting the party) put me in charge of her. But my friend who attempted to kill himself was trying to get with his best friend and she rejected him and he went into a depression. He forgot to tell us he was on Zoloft and he was .32 intoxicated. He was rolling around on the ground, throwing up everywhere. We finally move him inside where he is badly reacting but his best friend is off crying and begins to drunkenly make out with another friend of ours who came and she wanted to hook up with him. Anyways, we get him back to our dorm where he goes into his private bathroom with the girl. I am sitting in his living room area with my friend (the one who the drunk girl was hitting on) and she comes out screaming, "He cut his wrists." I spent a total of 2 hours at the hospital to make sure he was alright. I return to my room where my girlfriend is passed out and end up throwing up for 5.5 hours. My friend was alright. He committed himself to a mental house for a bit. He is currently fighting our university to let him stay in the dorms.

Needless to say, I never want a sip of alcohol again

[pilot_light_out]

I actually thought about killing myself late last night.

It seems like you're blaming alcohol instead of the more serious problems going on here.

[immorehxcthanu]

It seems like you're blaming alcohol instead of the more serious problems going on here.

alcohol makes you reckless and it is terrible to mix antidepressants with it. even though someone wants to kill themselves, if they are sober they can think somewhat clearly. all that goes out the window with alcohol in the mix.

I would have to agree with you too. People don't stop to think about how terrified this person was or what was going through there head when they did it. They don't stop to think about the events leading up to it or if something they did may have been one of the causes.

[crackerx]

I missed a huge offer I was waiting for all last year, and I remember saying that if I didn't get it I'd kill myself, and when it happened I realised that I actually couldn't do it. I managed to think up a lot of ways though, but its selfish. Some people think that suicide is selfless, but realise that tombstones cost about 2k, not to mention all the emotional stuff family has to go through. And the person that finds you. Think about them.

[justlistento]

I used to consider suicide all the time because I have been going through phases of depression for the past couple of years. Idk why. Maybe because of the enviorment I'm surrounded by. -_-
Then, I thought about my dad.
My mom died 7 years ago and I'm basically all he has.
And he also lost a friend to suicide once, so I couldn't put him through that.
I eventually quit cutting too. :)

I was 7 when my uncle was found hanging in his appartment. Apparently his girlfriend left him and took their newborn son. I don't remember seeing them at the funeral, and havent been in contact with them since.
When i was about 12 i got a call from a close friend saying goodbye because she had cut too deep. Thankfully she survived. :-)

Has anyone lost someone to suicide?
There are ALWAYS signs when someone is going to commit suicide. There are ALWAYS ways to prevent it as well. Someone who plans on suicide usually tends to give their belongings away and make statements such as "If I weren't here anymore...etc"... As a "best friend" it should be obvious if someone is at a point in their life when they feel that nothing is worth living for. I think as friends and family members we need to take a step back and stop being so selfish in our own lives and take care of those around us. THERE ARE ALWAYS RISK FACTORS AND SIGNS... If anyone wants more information on what to look for- just email me. =]

I am sorry to hear that so many of you have experienced a friend/family member death like that. :-(

I missed a huge offer I was waiting for all last year, and I remember saying that if I didn't get it I'd kill myself, and when it happened I realised that I actually couldn't do it. I managed to think up a lot of ways though, but its selfish. Some people think that suicide is selfless, but realise that tombstones cost about 2k, not to mention all the emotional stuff family has to go through. And the person that finds you. Think about them.

Yeah so life just sucks on an epic scale for whatever years you have left "naturally".

suicide is just another way to say ur selfish. If you take away ur life, you make ur loved ones suffer. And that would b more than enough pain for me, killing urself is hard, ud have to let go

i agree with what lunchforthesky keeps bringing up

For those of you saying that people that kill themselves are selfish just shut up! I have lost several very good friends to suicide! They where the most selfless people i knew! I have also lost several friends to murder. I have personally witnessed the suicide of two of my friends and witnessed the murder of one! I have had several thoughts of suicide... the only thing that keeps me going is there memory. I wrestle to get rid of my pain, because when i wrestle i can release my anger, pain and stress, and in that ten minute period where people are cheering for me, my opponent is in front of me and my coach is talkin to me, I forget my pain, anger and hate towards other people.keep in mind that the strength you can get from forgeting hate is ten times stronger than living with it

Yeah, one of my best friends killed himself about three monthes ago. It came as a huge shock because he was known as the funniest kid in school. He and my best friend had been together for the longest time. After he died people started making up rumors that she broke up with him and that's why he shot himself. It's been really hard on my best friend and me. We still have NO IDEA at all why he killed himself. We all later noticed that he was planning it, but we still never saw it coming and I regret that with my whole heart.
I think that suicide thoughts are very tempting and hard to get rid of, but think really how much you will hurt the few people you love and you think may not love you back. My friend's death caused soooo much pain for many, many people. Please, think before you do.
