Deja vu is what I felt reading what you have wrote. Looking back, it did seemed like the right solution for me too then. At least I thought it would stop the pain and disappointment and not having to deal with all the craps that I have been thrown, it would be so great ending it all. Thankfully I failed too because within me I wanted to live and I suppose it is because God has other designs for me and perhaps talking to you today is one of his grand design. I survived that 'addiction' and I believed that God has other designs for you too.
So where do we go from here?
I can only tell you what I did, I had a long and good cry and spend a month pitying myself and blaming the rest of the world for my pain and agony. After I have done that, I took stock that some of pain that I felt was within MY OWN POWER to avoid. So I took responsibility that if I had made certain decisions, I would have avoided having to feel these pain. I started looking at POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS so that I could dragged myself out of the holes I have fallen in. I decided that I have the power within myself to take charge of my life and I made the decisions that to avoid these pains, I needed to put myself in a position of control of moving my own life forward. And slowly, I found new purposes in life and here I am today talking to you.
So, first, have a good cry yourself and let the pain flows out of you. Once you have done that, Make the decision to find solutions for yourself. That is the first step to recovery. It does not matters what everyone tells you to do, YOU have to Make that decision that YOU are in CONTROL of your life and then move FORWARD. Eventually just like me, you will find new purposes in life and 20 years from now, you may find someone else who you can share your life experiences with.
I hope this helps you. I am here if you want to chat more.
if you really wanted to die you would have succeeded by now.so try doing something positive with your life now.
I am in the same boat as u only I am older the thing u have to think about when ur feeling like that is that you still have along time to figure out who u are and even thoguth things might be so hard that u dont want to exist ur gonna miss out on wonderful memories down the road. life is hard but trust me it gets easy
You need to get some medical and psychiatric help, tell your parents and your doctor, if they get angry they get angry but at least you have a chance to get better. It seems like it is some adrenaline rush for you. research suicide and see if you can find anyone else like you
I'm guessing you're still in high school. High school is rough on most people. When you're in grade school and living with your parents your world is so limited. I'm guessing you prolly don't feel like you have much control over your life. I have been on anti-depressants too, and during the period of my life when I was on them I think that my depression stemmed from a sense of instability. So, try to have positive thoughts (even when it seems impossible, or even just plain dumb) because it works. Positive thinking works wonders on health. Regardless, I guarantee that you have better days ahead. And you have people who love you. Thats all that really matters in life.
Pick yourself up,dust yourself off and move on with LIFE your here for a reason,maybe to save someone else's LIFE don't mess that up ....someone needs you
tell your doctor or it won't get bettter; seeing it as an addiction is quite common.
Ask your doctor to see a specolist or try different anti-depressents; everyone is different.
You said yourself, your parents would freak-they care about you and one day you may not be so lucky and kill yourself.
Don't kill yourself, or hurt yourself again! I know depression; the annoying think is that there are thousands who suffer yet we're all alone in our own world-am I wrong?
Your 17, you have lots to live for; set yourself mini goals in each aspect of your life and stick to them.
Next time you feel like taking tablets, leave the house and tell someone, just get away.
If you feel angry, buy a punchbag; it helps me and is worth the cash.
good luck
You may as well get gun and play Russian roulette !!! You are dicing with death here and you WILL die on one of these attempts soon - thing is, it may not be quick death - every attempt will be damaging your liver and kidneys a bit more and it may well be a slow, painful lingering death hooked up on machines. You obviously need help so ask for it !! It is out there but you HAVE to ask for it - they are not allowed to force it on you. There is no 'I don't want to die' about it - you are already half way there. My brother was exactly the same as you - loads of attempts but never actually did it. He died 4 weeks ago after he got angry and made a weak attempt at hanging himself. He didn't die instantly - he was on life support for a week. It was awful - is that what you want ??? Go to your GP, pour your heart out and get that help NOW before you end up in a morgue. You are 17 with your whole life in front of you - make something of it Please xxxxxxxxx
If your parents are decent at all they will not be angry when you tell them, but instead concerned. This is a problem that's needs to be addressed. It may be embarassing to talk about, or you may feel that no one will understand what you are going through, but you need to talk to someone. Go to a school counselor, your local emergency room or somewhere else you trust and talk to someone. Just because you haven't gotten hurt yet, doesn't mean you won't be hurt in the future. And I'm not just talking about death. I work in a hospital and I have seen people who have tried to kill themselves and survived only to end up with brain damage, nerve damage, or permanent physical injuries. This is not something you would want wished on your worst enemy!!! I can not stress to you enough....find someone, anyone you feel comfortable with to start off, and tell the truth about what is going on.
Please take care of yourself.
