Have you attempted suicide and also had cosmetic surgery at some point during your life?

Hello everyone

I am a freelance journalist, potentially writing a feature for a UK national newspaper, exploring a research report. This report finds that women who have had cosmetic surgery (like breast augmentation) tend to have higher rates of suicide and depression than the rest of the population.

I am interested in talking to women who have felt the need for cosmetic surgery to find out whether the surgery has actually helped them improve their self-esteem, or whether they still battle depression or suicidal feelings after having had the surgery.

I am also interested in talking to women who have had breast implants in the past and have since attempted suicide, or relatives and friends of women who have successfully committed suicide and who also had cosmetic surgery at some point during their life.

I had breast augmentation when i was 29. i ve never liked my body. having a twin with natural beautiful breast was also very unfortunate . A BET with some male friends was the final blow as i had to strip when loosing the bet, and i did.....from small B cup to a big C cup. BUT when i had to do this stripact i felt as insecure as before this time i totally freaked out about my strechmarks and cellulitis and my spiderveins and i didnt want them to think i had fake breasts so i felt even worse than before......so the fatc that i have nice breasts doesnt take away my insecurity about above facts.......i still have a low selfesteem and I only see the uglyness. outside and inside. I think it is my upbringing i never heared i was beautiful and if guys tell me know they like my breasts i think they are not mine......so it doesnt give my satisfaction. i hope i can have more treatment for above bodyfaults i still belief i will be happy if i have beautiful legs. i want to belief this.

i have attempted suicide, when i was around 8-9 10 when i was doing karate and i wanted to quit, then my mum mae me carry on, so i tried to strangle my self with my karate belts,

i recently tried to kill my self when my ex boyfriend was playing with my mind,

if you wanna know more email me

Hi, I am training to be a freelance journalist and would love some tips and advice from you. I have attempted suicide before and been depressed but this was down to being bullied at school. I took so many overdoses and cut my wrists which made the bullying worse, I was made to feel like a freak.
I still suffer with panic disorder and self harm, I am now 24! But I am a lot happier now because I am with an amazing man who loves me and accepts my illness.
Please email me on laura.lewis6@btinternet.com and I will tell you more and in more depth. Good luck with your report. X
