Eating a bullet
Posted by Solo in Alone on Aug 15th, 2011 | 6 commentsThere are so many days that I think about suicide, and how I would do it. I think about who might care and who wouldn’t. No one knows the hurt I feel because I cover it up with a smile. When it all comes down to it…I don’t think I would ever have the courage to follow through.

Listen to me. Okay, I have your attention? Good. Now, let me tell you something. Suicide is not the answer to your problems. Most of the people who try do not succeed but a good many ruin their lives by becoming disabled from the damage trying to commit suicide causes. When you have the next thought of suicide, go immediately to the nearest hospital emergency room and get help for your problems. They will likely get a psychiatrist and therapist who can help you to solve your problems that are making you feel suicidal. You can do it. No more talk of suicide now or ever. It is okay for you to get help for yourself. Take care now.
It takes courage not to do it. This should say I would never be cowardly enough to do it. Suicide is the easy way, easy doesn’t take courage. I have felt the way you do. For me it got better. It took awhile so you’ll have to hang on for awhile and not give up. Just know that those who do care it will hurt more than almost anything in the world ever will.
Suicide is the easy way out. Courage is not doing things the easy way. Also those that do care (and there are those that do even ones you may not think they do) is painful for them. Losing someone to suicide is one of the most painful, confusing, and horrific things I’ve ever been through in my life.
It sounds like a lot of the above comments said much of what I would say as well.
Please get help!
I can also add this:
Exercize is very helpful for depression. It isn’t an instant fix, and takes time, but is a good addition to other methods (a therapist, for example). Finding ways to take care of yourself would be really good to do. I hope you can do it!
Mir is right! I just started exercising yesturday and just the thought of my suicidal problems and depression goes away because i can’t wait till i can get my next work out in! I’m slowly changing and i feel wonderful now!
It’s almost like I wrote this post! I feel you, and I know when you’re sad and have a hard time coming up with reasons to live, the last thing you want to hear are quotes are sayings HOWEVER, I cannot lie, they have helped me.
Suicide is a permant solution to a temporary problem.
What is a good idea today, will still be a good idea in two weeks (this has saved me from Tattoo disasters)
I really wish the best for you and as someone who has been there before, there is a light. You don’t see it now but when you do, you will be so thankful AND be so much stronger for surviving!
