Do you ever feel suicidal, and then the feelings go away?!


Question: Do you ever feel suicidal, and then the feelings go away?
I go through periods when I feel suicidal...not completely seriously, but it's almost comforting to know that it's an answer if things get really, really bad. I'm struggling to find full-time employment after going back to school, I am tremendously insecure about my looks and hate that nobody understands how I feel (I'm 6'3", bald, and broad shouldered, and I think big bald guys are gross), I have virtually no friends, and no money.

About 24 hours ago, I found myself considering starving myself...not to make myself look better (I'd still be big and bald) but at first as a way to punish myself for my looks, then I thought of slowly starving myself till I die. I felt this way all last evening/night, but this morning I told myself that didn't make any sense. However, I know the suicidal feelings will come back.

Do you ever have temporary feelings of suicide? What do you do to get rid of them (please don't say God or something stupid like standing in front of a mirror and saying nice things about myself).

Answers:

yea i get like that sometimes. but then i just tell the part of my head thats telling me i suck to go f itself. once you can turn yourself around from hating your appearance and turn to hating the part of yourself that hates you, suicide starts to seem like a victory for that side that says bad things about you all the time.

experience



Yea I feel like that too... Some nights i just lay there and fantasize about being in a horrible car wreck or overdosing on tylenol or something. Then other days I feel fine. Probably depression, dont know how to fix it,



You need help...



Suicidal thoughts happen when your are feeling helpless and hopeless.Yes, I sometimes have that too but I told myself that I am not a coward..easily defeated by life challenges.

Life is about learning and going through experiences.

Don't worry about your looks...beauty is in the eye of a beholder. Personality is more important than looks. Loyal, loving husband/boyfriend/partner is better than a husband/boyfriend/partner who is handsome and a jerk.

You will get a job...everything needs time...be patient. For now don't be choosy about work, take any job and while working look for something that you really want that suits your qualification. You should consider to go and work abroad..such as EUROPE or MIDDLE EAST.. plenty of jobs there :)

Don't feel so helpless ok...time..it needs time...be strong..ahh..and get urself a book ..read THE SECRET..it helps me..it will help you too! :)

I pray for your happiness and wish that you will land a job very soon. Don't ever give up...
