I think I'm depressed/have suicidal thoughts? :(?

. Hang in there. You are worth it.

You can be healed. You have something to offer to this world, something no one else can offer. Depression with suicidal thoughts is a very serious matter.

Please, speak with someone. - Find someone you can trust to talk to: family, friends, a colleague, teacher 24-hour telephone counselling lines allow you to talk anonymously to a trained counsellor any time of the day or night. Here are things you can do to make your current situation better in almost all circumstances.

Exercise, eating right, fresh air, and company will all help scrape you off the bottom and raise your mood. Avoid being alone (especially at night) - Stay with a family member or friend or have someone stay with you until your thoughts of suicide decrease. Set yourself small goals to help you move forward and feel in control - Set goals even on an hour-by-hour or day-by-day basis –write them down and cross them off as you achieve them.

Write down your feelings - You might keep a journal, write poetry or simply jot down your feelings. This can help you to understand yourself better and help you to think about alternative solutions to problems. Stay healthy - try to get enough exercise and eat well - Exercising can help you to feel better by releasing hormones (endorphins) into your brain.

Eating well will help you to feel energetic and better able to manage difficult life events. Remember that thoughts about suicide are just that – thoughts. You don’t need to act on them.

They won’t last for ever, and often they pass very quickly. Many people who have had serious thoughts of suicide have said that they felt completely different only hours later. It is common to feel overwhelmed and distressed during difficult times or when it seems that things will never improve.

Realize that suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Live life day-to-day and give it a chance to improve. Remember that things will often get worse before they get better.

Whatever your situation, however grim, however difficult, the answer lies in taking that first little baby step, then another, then another until the situation is remedied. Look for the things that are good in life. Start with the littlest things; perhaps a pet, a sunrise or sunset, something you find comfort in doing or seeing.

Grab onto this thing and cherish it. Make a list. Find someone to confide in.

A friend, a parent, a counsellor or teacher. Ask for help and allow yourself to receive the help offered. You may not wish to confide your desperate feelings to just anyone, but if you have just one person you can the the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, it might really help you feel less alone.

Things aren't that bad, that it will be all right. You can't cop out. There are constantly going to be challenges, failures, and just a bunch of other things going wrong again and again, but when you do your best and believe in yourself, and say the heck with the surroundings, that past, nothing will stand in your way and you will make it through these tough times.

Even though you live in a trap, you aren't trapped by the trap.

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.
