yeah and i have even tryed to end it. maybe for simular reasons as yours. but in the end i was not successful. i am glad for that because i found other avenues to help me cope with the differences with me and met others with the same commons. this helped out alot and slowly but surly the thought of death disappeared.

Whether a person chooses to take their life prematurely or not, is their decision.  As a nurse for 35 years, I have seen many people die a slow painful death, so I can understand the desire to end ones suffering.  I couldn't  do it though, because I would feel there must be a reason for me to stay on this earth a little longer.  To shorten my life,  I would become  accountable to a higher power.  The one who gave me life in the first place and really is the only one who has the right to take mine away.

Yes, i can relate.\nA lot of people go through this. \nYor biggest plus is that you know what is happening to you, and you can then do something about it. You can spend bucks and get help, or you can work it out on your own.\nIt is all in the mind, and it is worse when you are inactive (too much time on your hands )\nA person also sees things that are not real , and you think things that are not really so, and you see them so lifelike !\nWatch out for habit forming pills to make you relax !\nBest is  : get your mind right yourself.\nremember too that a person is a very complex thing, and also we do not die that easily...\nGood luck !

No why live in fear of death when you can live in celebration of life. It is a choice and I know what I prefer.

As I don't believe anything more than the worms is waiting for us, I'd be happy to postpone 'that dreadful day' as long as possible. Even if it meant repeatedly seeing my loved ones die... But not if I was condemned to live forever in pain (this question often seems to presume that you wouldn't). So actually, I'd like to 'live forever' in the sense that nothing or nobody else could kill me, but I'd like to be able to reserve the right myself to kill myself.

The world is not all just dishonesty, cruelty and misery. I hope for you that you will give yourself the chance to find some more happiness before you die, or before you choose to die.\nWe have so much possibilities, so many kind of lives to choose. Even if you are disabled to a heavy degree it is still possible to find happiness and the beauty in life.\nThe responsibility in choice is yours. Even if you are bed-bound, there are so many ways left to make life worth living.\n\nI know you might think that it is easier said then done. You're right. Life can be a hell of a struggle. But it is worth it. I know many people will agree with me on that. Including people who are disabled to a heavy point.\n\nI can't answer your question about when you will die. I just hope your next question will be when you will start to live. \n\nI wish you strength.

Yeah, I'd go out accidents happen all the time, and you just have to hope that it's not you or someone you know that it happens to (I know it sounds horrible but you know it's true). Plus leaving an over sheltered life is worse than living an overly dangerous one, in my opinion.

Me either lol. Besides my very close family members and maybe two friends but its like I automatically dont trust people and I feel that it is better that way although it can become quite miserable. I'd rather live using my mind to ensure my success! Lol :)

Sorry, but it sounds like a death wish and an easy way out to me. It would be much better if you spent your life doing good works in God's honor, struggling to make earth a better place for everyone, instead of waiting around to die or committing suicide. \nHere is my proposed edit:\n"From the day I was born I have been waiting for the chance to make this a better world for everyone and to help the light of God's perfection shine through me as much as possible. God will help to shape my destiny and give me purpose. I know life on Earth is not perfect, but I will not be lazy and will try my best to serve God in this way, even when it is difficult, so that on the day I die, I can deserve to find my way to the perfect land of God."

I would never give anyone the satisfaction of forcing me into suicide.\n\nI found within myself to carry on

I understand what your point is, but I also think that when a person is going through ideas of suicide, the person's judgment is not at its best at all.  It may seem like a solution to problems at that moment, but when a person goes into that mindframe, it is good for another person to help take over and not let something bad happen.\nA friend of mine killed herself by hanging herself. She must have felt there was no way she could deal with her life or be happy. I would not want my friends to live that way, but I also think that dark moods will pass and there will come other things and chances in life to bring more happiness. My friend will never know what those things could have been. I don't know if I'd call her "selfish" for killing herself. But I don't think she chose the best way to handle her grief.

I think my problem is that I want to take life over easy.  Although sometimes I hope to take life sunny side up.  Unfortunately, mostly, I get life scrambled.  What do I'm mean by all that?  I'm not eggs-actly certain.

Well, I hope you don't recommend suicide.\n\nI have attempted to kill myself by drowning, hanging, crashing into something (by car), suffocating, etc.\n\nWhy? Um, hereditary mental illnesses like depression and borderline personality disorder. When I get upset, I think irrationally. I had an abusive mother (who suffers from the same illnesses but denies them), horrible grade school experiences, etc.\n\nI used to inflict harm upon myself. I would still do it but my fiance threatens to leave me if I ever do it again.

I don't know.  I have been to the point of suicide.  I used to say how dumb could a person be to even consider such a thing. People that haven't been there don't truly understand.  I don't know about a truly painless method;but I do know the true pain; hurt; despair; and feeling of emptiness when a person deems suicide is the only option.  I took a lot of pills thinking I would just drift off to sleep-seemed easy enough-didn't work I woke up sometime later.  I am diabetic I have stopped my insulin and ate sugar-undying stomach pain and vomiting.  I don't believe there is anything easy or painless about suicide.  Even if one was to succed with a painless method-what is waiting for us after our self affliction.  There are many different opinions on the religious viewpoint as to life after death of a person who takes their own life.  I'm sure many people disagree and most that do probably have never been suicidal;for what it's worth my personl opinion is a truly suicidal person is not responsible for their actions.  Their mentality is not of their norm;if it were than why are their actions and personality straying from happy times in life.  If you are considering suicide-talk to someone please.  For some reason I am still on this earth; I simply believe its not my time or I would be gone.  It's a struggle sometime but life is worth living.

I have always said that if my illness ever takes me to a point where I am suffering unduly, where my dignity and self-worth are  compromised, I would want someone to take my life if I couldn't do it myself. Because this isn't legal,  I wouldn't expect anyone to do this for me but it is how I feel on the subject.\n\nWe do it for animals, so that they don't suffer, and I strongly believe in these circumstances euthanasia is thr only humane way.
