suicidal thoughts, but not actions?!

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

you're headed on a dangerous path but don't realise how serious the situation is. The self-harm is an addictive behaviour; it provides intense stimulation.
If you go get help and tell the truth, yes, basically people will swing into action to help you... but that's because that's what needs to happen!

Also, two other points.
1. suicide won't bring relief or happiness. Those are feelings, and only people who are alive have the privelege of experiencing feelings, even "release".

2. Even though you feel distant from your parents, I can assure you that if you were to suicide, you would basically destroy them. So unless you want to condemn them to years of suffering, go get help.

the trouble with self injury is you have to keep escalating it to get the relief it brings. so it is a strategy doomed to fail.

try free computerized counseling at australia national university's moodgym. it's kinda dorky but also fun and you take little quizzes to find out any areas where you have warpy thinking. you have to do the little homeworks to get the benefit.

for me, exercising until i am tired will work to get rid of the worst of the strong feelings.

when you brood over suicide, or other negative thoughts, actively change the subject in your head, or else get busy with something else like reading, socializing, doing a puzzle, etc.

thats the same as me, im 13 turning 14 this year and i get thoughts like that all the time! (cause people bully me at school, and i know they dont mean it) and i too think about ways and plans to kill myself and wanting to confuse the police wheather i was killed by someone or suidicide? and i often stratch myself until it really really hurts, but when i get possitive thinking about myself, i just suddently feel better? so maybe you should try and stop thinking about whatever is causing you so much pain and start to think about things like im going to be a successful person and other possitive future thinkings (apparently its good for you)

and also dont try to hurt yourself! ive had thoughts about cutting myself, but no youll get horrible scars, and yes im a girl... maybe you should talk to your friends, or someone you trust about it, and im sure they'll be glad to help you!
