I did when I was going through a bout of severe depression as an adolescent, but I told myself that life would get better...that I just had to be strong and wait until my moment to live my life how I wanted to live it. You cannot bind yourself to such sad and destructive thinking...suicide accomplishes absolutely nothing and is a waste of a beautiful life that has been given. No matter one's circumstances, know that you have the power to make your life better...and even be grateful for what you have now.
When I was a teen someone spiked a drink I had and I had some kind of paranoid trip. I got very claustrophobic and felt I was locked in my body--and the only way out was suicide. Luckily I had friends who took care of me.
Never did another illegal substance from that point on--today it is even hard for me to take an aspirin-and I still have panic attacks left over from that incident.
Yes. Sadly to say lots of times. Even though I knew I would never do it, I still thought about giving up and giving in.
I did think about it at some point some years ago. Reason: finances. I thought there was no way out of the situation.
The only solution that could save my family (financially) was money from life insurance. Pretty crazy. Immersing myself in the scriptures and my awesome wife and kids helped me to get through the rough times.
Scriptures are full of promises made by perfect God who never lies. I figured that if I just do what I think He expects from me, I will be fine. And I was right.
Some unexpected things happened and the problems disappeared. Every problem eventually goes away.
Every single day I think about blowing my head off at least twice. Never have a good reason, it's just a joke to me, like oh why don't I just stick my head in the oven because House is a repeat tonight.
Most people do think of it when they are somewhere between the ages ~18-22. I guess the end of these thoughts also mark the end of puberty. Even the situation is very very bad, I will not think about committing suicide.
Because if you have the courage to die yourself, why not you have confidence to overcome it. Only living can you achieve your goal, or at least to experience relationship with people you know.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
