In my experience, people who really want to kill themselves, do it. People who want attention, get it.

Lovely thread :love: [sarcastic btw]

And Yes.

I threatened to hang myself back in June '09 because of bullying and stuff like that but then my mum and my school started talking to me and got me signed up to different counsellors and bollocks like that.

Then about a year later, I tried to hang myself but was kind of interrupted moments before I jumped off the stool.
That was pretty much the same reason as before, being bullied and this time I found out I had a few mental problems such as Aspergers and Bipolar Disorder which ******ed me off even more because now I'm not normal and also rejection from a girl I really cared about also added onto me actually making a plan and trying to kill myself.

Yeah a few years ago, I think I'm wiser to it now after what happened though and stuff thats happened in my life.

not gonna get into it ..loooong story but yeah

Yes.
Every time Celtic beat Rangers but after a few pints the pain and depression goes away.

:bawling: :sad: :hug:

Yeah, it's weird when you're in that state of mind. Felt really embarrassed and ashamed. I was a silly boy :bored:

I've thought about it, but I'd never do it, no matter what D:

I can't stand like veins and stuff like that, ugh

I was going to go into an argument about how that's bollocks because some things stop people from doing it, people who aren't attention seekers.

If you were attention seeking you'd hang yourself from a tree in your garden at 10 in the morning so everyone can see you whilst eating their breakfast.

But then I realised it was just in your experience.

Yeah, but suicide is a long term solution to a short term problem

That's what Life Line's New Advertising slogan is :love:
Got one in the mail the other day rofl.

Veins....?

No, never. Even during bad times I am still the type who is thanful for everything I am and have.

I used to get mad at people contemplating or commiting suicide. I thought it was just an easy way out away from peoples problems and incredibly selfish towards the people and loved ones left behind.

I realised recently it's not quite as simple as that though. :(

It's actually pretty hard to die as well. So people who go all out must be in a pretty bad place.

I mean when people self-harm like slitting their wrists or whatever, I couldn't, I can't even look at veins or anything like that

Sometimes.

If you do it right, it's easy.

If you hang yourself and jump at the right height, your neck will break and you're gone in a second and won't feel a thing.

If you fail, You're left hanging there for a few minutes.
Your body will try to fight suffocation, until eventually it fails and you slowly suffocate to death.

Alot like drowning.


Yeah,
Because at the end of the day it isn't actually the loved ones who are living through the pain or whatever the other person is going through.

Oh yeah I get'cha know.

Yeah it'd be kind of creepy, seeing your veins pumping or something if you slit your wrists :shocked:

I have several times in my life. I don't believe I would actually ever go through with it though, but it did trigger off my interest in suicide (sounds morbid) for my poetry and creative work. The emotional state people are in at that point in their lives, and the reprocussions of the event on other people intrigues and saddens me deeply.

It does however annoy me when people state that 'people who commit suicide are selfish'. They are in such a dark, despairing place that it seems like the only option and people can neglect to see (sometimes intentionally) the signs before suicide or the plea for help.

Hmm imo you can't really understand why people self harm unless you have actually done it :/

Nah, never. Can't imagine anything happening in life that would make me want to kill myself either.

If I was to, for whatever reason, I'd make sure I died though. Like, I'd jump off a really tall building or hanging myself, something like that. Quick death, sure fire way to die. Couldn't be doing with cutting my wrists, putting myself through all that pain when the chances of dying at the end of it are pretty slim.

No I've never contemplated suicide. I've never had those sort of feelings before and I hope I never do.

I really do feel sorry for those who do get those feelings. I mean it must be horrible to think there is nothing left in the world for you. And I do agree that half the time it is a cry for help by the person who attempts suicide.

I think mostly people drinks loads of alcohol and take a load of pills before they slit their wrists.

If I tried that I just wouldn't be able to cut straight and end up messing it up.

I think people who try that often do get found unless they're alone for hours. Slow way to die.
