Does anyone think of suicide often,i do and i have 5 times,well taken an overdose,but not really wanted to die

do otheres have these thoughts,mine is all about escaping sounds odd,going away almost being somewhere safer then on the other hand -attention, i do have Bordrline Personality disorder,crap really ,i would like it just gone from my life! its a burdon

lowjoy thanks but im 33!!! not a school leaver,

Yeah mate been there done that! I "attempted suicide" about four years ago. And it's funny tou should say what you said because all that I wanted to do was escape for a while, not have people hassling me and most of all just have a rest, however I soon learnt that no one was gonna make life any easier for me and I was the only person to change it. I know you have a borderline personality disorder but you should not let that be the thing that dictates your life.

take it from someone who knows, get out there and do some thing about it, your answers won't come overnight but only you can solve this!! lol xx

hey you are important mybe i dont know you but everyone is in a place for some reasson so please dont suicidate

have you ever read the boy who cried wolf read it and think about it

No, not every one thinks about suicide at all. Talk to your therapist to get to why you want to escape. Do research on borderline personality disorder and start disciplining yourself to behave in a more healthy way. Pretend at first if you have to.

Yes, I must shame myself to admit, I thought about this for the first time ever a couple of weeks ago. I found myself thinking like which drug, what knot. I don't know what came over me, because I'm usually so happy. But just lately everything's so horrible, and I don't know what to do with myself, with my life. It's not about making decisions anymore, it's all about results, and I'm really cracking under the pressure. The boyfriend is far away in another country at the moment, friends are busy, and the job is non existent, once you're done with the exams it's pretty much just you, by yourself. And for the first time ever you don't know what to do. You have everything, and at the same time, you don't. I just got myself really REALLY drunk and spent the night being sick and felt slightly better the next day, in a way. My stomach didn't like this. I'm seeing the doctor on tuesday, although I don't know what she'll say, or prescribe, as it's been on the news that antidepressants don't work.

But I don't think everybody thinks about suicide, I mean I didn't use to. But I do think it's all about escaping. Mine I think is about fading into nothingness, just leaving.

Sorry my answer was so long. Thanks for reading and good luck!

it's the first thing i think of in the morning. and the last thing at night. and most hours through each day. every day for the past 15 years.

I really do not know if this is of any help, but my heart goes out to you.
I am now a pensioner, and, when I was rather younger, could not seriously see any point in continuing life. I attempted suicide a few times, and failed (obviously) each time.
I am now incredibly glad that I survived, though life has proved to be far from easy.
I want to live to see my 110th (one hundred and tenth, just in case you thought I might have hit a wrong key) birthday.

I do. I have been in a very severe depression for almost a year. It's very debilitating and you end up feeling that you so screwed up in life and think you can never amount to anything, so what's the point? I've overdosed a few times and think I did want to die, but I thought of my mom before I took the second bottle of pills I had and knew I couldn't die just because she'd be forever broken and I can't put her through that.

But, yea... just talk to someone, keep coming to these boards, and talk to others with BDP and see how they've handled things...

Sorry if I made no sense - I just took my sleep meds and I am kinda foggy.

Good luck... and please don't try suicide. Life gets better.

For goodness sake at your age you should have no problems. This World is now a very hard one , and things do get you down but if you have not started work yet or you are in a job you do not like....if so ..shake yourself up and step into the World outside, and say to yourself..." There are others across this Planet who have a harder Cross to bear than me " Like the other elderly lady I started life in a very poor environment but I did very well, in life and reached the top of my job which I loved. There is no one out there that can tell you what to do.....its up to you....but first go and have a good talk with your Doctor....Chin up...its not all bad..!!

Hi
I once contemplated suicide, so I phoned the Samaritans, the call went through to a call centre in Pakistan, I told them I was suicidal and they got right excited when I told them I could drive a van.

u need to see a gp, maybe spend some volunteer time in a mental health unit, for ur own safety, if you don't want to die , you need to learn to control these urges.

I have a few times mate, the only thing that works for me is exercise. It sends a lovely buzz through my body and makes me feel great. I tried everything else, Cocaine, Alcohol and any other drug I could get my hands on for 5 years and ended up in detox. But the only thing that has ever worked to stop me feeling like that is exercise. The funny thing is, is the side effects are muscles. Great isn't it?

As a mental health nurse i have met many people who for some reason or other have attempted suicide, i have also nursed people with BPD who have taken overdoses with the intension or being saved again who have messed up thier timing and died! Are you in contact with a mental health team at present?

ye every minute of every day i think about suicide its just finding the right time to do it though

Here are a few things that might help......

meditation twice a day for 20 mins each time.
Just sit comfortably upright (do not slouch) in a darkened room or away from bright lights with eyes closed in silence and dont allow any thought to enter your mind. If you start 'thinking' it will NOT work.
You may find that your mind (and head) feels clearer.

Exercise is very good for depression too. Don't overdo it. You don't need to join a gym - just get a couple of weights and also do some sit-ups and push-ups. Natural endophins are better than anti-depressants - and it strengthens your heart.
Hypnotherapy can work for some people. If you go to a hypnotherapist try to identify the source of your depression. Hypnotherapy is a way of 'reprogramming' your subconcious beliefs
