Does anybody really recover COMPLETELY from suicide ideation?!


Question: Does anybody really recover COMPLETELY from suicide ideation?
Theoretically, once someone has had problems with suicidal thoughts or not wanting to live anymore, do they ever really go back to valuing life and regain their will to live? Or is it like a battle or conflict that comes back regularly and once you've crossed over to not wanting to live, you generally don't go back?
Is it different for people who are only suicidal because of a recent issue or temporary negative experience vs. people who are suicidal due to a mood disorder or something.

Answers:

I think it depends on the person; no one can necessarily tell you that you absolutely will not recover from it. I'm sure there are plenty of people who have suffered through those times and are now in a better place. I even know a couple myself, so yes -- it's possible to recover.



I had years of attempts and then for nearly 15 years although at times battling with depression the suicide attempts were halted and i lived a fairly normal life yes i had issues but generally ok i had a family a job friends i did go through another big bad spell but i think 15 years was a fair time to go i do not think it ever completely goes but it can be controlled i just left it to late to get help if i had been more honest it would never have got that bad.My depresion had lasted for years and ylears and it was always my first thought but i have known people who just made the one attempt because of an issue and they were quite against me when i became like it so i suppose for them once was a mistake never to be repeated very difficult when your moods/disorders make you feel that bad you dont always have complete control over your actions .sorry i hope this makes some sense and isn't just a load of ramblings!



Well I have attempted years ago. I don't like this world that much and I have to fight to stop suicide contemplation. The only thing that has changed is that I don't want my parents or friends or sister to be all upset if I leave. That and my fear that if it doesn't work I might have to go to hospital again.



well my sister is still alive and she nearly killed her self she was 11 then and i was 8 years old, I saved her ,even she sed That i kept her alive . but now shes happy and shes 18 ..and i think shes completely recovered . she has mental problems but shes taking medication for it . Perhaps u should too ,NO offense but its just an idea .....

just email me if u want to talk to me or add me on msn . I'm always free to chat with u
