I tried to commit suicide in 2001. I was having a very rough time and felt like a loser, etc. I was considering it and ended up making a very rash decision and attempted it. Luckily my husband found me and they got me to the ER quickly. Once I woke up after they pumped my stomach, my family was there to support me and everyone was in shock. They sent me to the psych ward for the typical hold and watch period and it freaked me out. I begged my doctor to get me out as quickly as possible that I didn't mean to do it. It took me a long time to tell some very close friends and they were in shock when I told them. How could we not have noticed you were that low, etc. I survived and got through the rough patch. Eventually I was diagnosed with Bipolar disorder, but I am so thankful I wasn't successful.

I had a bad manic attack about 4 years ago and lost almost everything. I had fleeting thoughts about suicide but I had a young son and knew the devastation it would cause him and my family and after that 2001 attempt I will never try it again. It is not the answer and will not solve your problems. You may think it is an easy way out, but it's not and it will scar and impact many people whether you know it or not.

I agree with the other people that have posted. Call your therapist, pdoc if you have them immediately. Get in for an emergency appointment. If you don't have those resources go to the ER. I don't know your background - depression, bipolar or what but if you have one of those it could be a smiple med modification. Call the suicide hotline if you have a sudden urge to do it now. I'm begging you and pleading with you to do something to help yourself. Do not commit suicide!
