Hello, my name is Liza. To be honest I'm scared. I want to kill myself. I suffer from the highest level of anxiety, and have been feeling really depressed lately. My mom is so mean and unfair. No one at school likes me any more. They all talk shit about me behind my back, and think i wont find out but i always do. I dont know how to cope with feelings anymore, im just so done. I cant handle life its too hard. i cant handle it. i cant stop thinking about wanting to kill myself. I know i would never actually kill myelf, its just the thoughts are so frusterating and upsetting. Any advice??
 
I felt this way anytime I was alone with myself, and my depression came flooding over me, during my 20s.
Taking SSRIs only made it worse, much worse.

The truth actually is, that when you're in a dark tunnel like this, you just want it to end. Suicide ends life, not just the dark tunnel. It affects everyone else in a purely negative way.

You have probably had to endure more than just "meanness" in life. You will need time to measure up what you have had to endure. But first, gaining your freedom from meanness is a good idea to protect your emotional self while it heals, which it will if given the chance.

Can you go stay with other, kinder, safer people for a while?

Can you be gentle with yourself and find a plan for a slow growth and supportive environment?

If you feel like you have no options other than suicide, please call a hotline or go to the ER and check yourself in there, or call your therapist.

Telling a friend or a relative is not likely to help often. They panic and they are not trained in being helpful.

This forum is a great place. Please join and plan to stay awhile. Welcome.
 
Hi Liza. I don't know where you live, but if you're in the US please call the suicide hotline 1 800 273 8255. My advice would be to call them and/or go to the nearest emergency room. They will help you stay safe and sort out those thoughts and feelings. Are you in therapy? If not, I suggest finding one. They will help you deal with those thoughts more on a long term basis as opposed to a hospital which is for immediate stabilization.

I'm sorry you are in such distress, but please don't hurt yourself

Hello friend, welcome,

I think I can only agree with Muse here, while it may seem like the only method of escape would be suicide, I promise you that, as cheesy as it sound, it truly is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Rather than focusing on how everything that is happening is unable to be coped, perhaps make a plan or a list of ideas to help you get across these situations in a healthy manner? For example, if this is happening in a school environment and people are bullying you, you have every right to go to a school counselor and firmly iterate that you're being harassed by peers.

Calling hotlines and talking with social workers or therapists are all very good responses and options offered here as well.

Have you heard of mindfulness and grounding techniques? These are techniques that can help you focus more on being kind to yourself, and focusing on what's going on in the present, and are widely used to help individuals suffering from varying disorders.

I know that you must be struggling so, so much with what you're going through. I know it's hard. Know that your experiences, your feelings and emotions are valid, and you are a human being deserving of respect. You are capable of being loved, and you are not defined by the words and behaviors of others. That's their fault for being bullies, not yours. :)
 
Thank you for reaching out for help. That takes a lot of courage. We hear you. Please consider the options that others have shared. Hope to hear back from you that things are better... Please don't hurt yourself... we hear you.Sending gentle hugs if you accept them.
 
I'm glad you are here and that you are reaching out for help. I have been in your shoes. I was going to kill myself on two different occasions while I was in high school, that's how bad things were. I had everything planned out... but something stopped me both times. I'm really glad I didn't go through with it. That was 30 years ago, and I'm here to tell you that things can get better. Do me a favor, Talk to someone now. Please don't wait as long as I have to get help. Also if at all possible get out of the situation that's causing you all that pain. Speak up and leave the situation if at all possible. You deserve love, you deserve respect, you deserve healing, you deserve peace. ♡ :tup::hug:'s if you'll accept, Raven
