In all honesty I have come close to ending my life a few times. I really can't tell anyone but you guys cuz if I tell ppl i know in real life they would try to ship me off to the mental hospital... i hate those places.

Glad to see you, RER. Sorry you've had those feeling/thoughts. Hope you're well right now.

REagleRs, I've about ended my life several times too. I sometimes feel like I'm close to doing it and, like you, I don't tell anybody because I don't want to be hospitalized. I've heard some people have had good hospital experiences but all my times locked-up were bad. However, there were a few times that I know being in the hospital saved my life so it was for the best. I hope I never get to the point where I have to go back there...I'm not sure I'd want to go through it again...but, right now, I think I'd do it if I had to in order to save my life. Today, I want to survive. I hope you can get out of the dark place you are in--I know what its like and it really is a tough way to live....hang in there...you will get through this........D.

Running Eagle Runs, you are needed in this world now. You can call a crisis line or even hang out with friend or family. I hang out with friends or my sister at times when I'm sui**** and I don't tell them what's going on, just that I had a bad day and didn't want to be alone. Maybe you can make a list of things you can do when you have these feelings to help you until they pass.my list has everythig from cooking and eating scrambled eggs to reading murder myseries and eating dark chocolate to driving to er or calling crisis line for few minutes. So please call a.crisis line, 911 or go to ER if you need to. Nothing is more important than your life. May angels surround you and mercy be with you always.

I had a very good discussion with my psychologist about a month ago on this topic. Back between 1994 & 2003, my depression was really bad. I had lost my engineering career & it was my escape from my bad marriage....so I had NO PLACE to escape to any longer......so SUI seemed like the only solution. Several times I should not have actually survived it...amazing that there was no lasting damage from the times. But I had made up my mind that I wanted out & there was no reason to call or even talk to anyone about it.

Life has been so good since I left my H 7 years ago. I moved to a place 2100 miles away where I didn't know anyone....they could know about my past only what I choose to tell them.....but something came up this year in regards to my health & quality of life. We had a discussion about when quality of life is no longer worth living.....what would it be wrong to end one's life when all the options have been tried & there is NOTHING LEFT?

It was a very interesting intellectual (not emotional)discussion we had....about that......it was like end of the line hopeless with no other options available that would work.....it was thinking in the future, not in the now so she knew there was no possibility that I was feeling that way at this point.....but I also said that once I make up my mind, there is nothing that could change it unless there was a miracle that happened .
