I know it's a touchy subject, but have you?

I have a few times, but each time I backed out.

One was when I broke up with a boyfriend. I know, stupid. I was...12? I had a cutting problem a few years back. No, not for attention. it made me happy. :P Anyway, I had intended on dyring by cutting. But I just just about a millimeter less deep than what would have killed me.

The other time was at my 13th birthday party. I know, fucked up, right? In front of all my friends? e.e; Anyway, I swallowed a whole bottle of my anti-depressants. Then I vomited them up about 5 minutes later.

What about you?

No. I have thought about it a lot, but never attemptted.

Were you/are you depressed?

Suicide is illegal, so I'm not to sure if this is ayokay. :P Plus, I really don't wanna discuss my issues with the internets. x)

(sorry to hear about your problems though)

When I was a shithead of a teenager in middle school I used to think BAWWW MY LIFE IS SO HARD NO ONE UNDERSTANDS I'D BE BETTER OFF DEAD but I was never serious about it. (Although I was, at one point, diagnosed with a form of depression, I never had any serious suicide thoughts) Iiii.. do not agree with suicide. Not pointing fingers, but suicide worsens problems and doesn't solve anything. At least in my opinion.

Oh, I know x.x; Should I ask for this to be locked?

I was evaluated once and met 4 out of 5 required criteria for being clinically depressed. So no, I wasn't clinically depressed, but I was a pretty sad person for a long time. :x

I do better now, though.

You could ask. :P Attempted suicide isn't illegal (from what I can tell?) but actual suicide is. Lol, I honestly dunno.

And what teenager hasn't thought about it? :P

Glad to hear. :)

Eh, maybe I should've said I obsessed about it? :P

And besides, I wasn't technically a teenager...

I used to be a cutter. I stopped because people actually started paying attention to me. AHAHAHAHAHAH O.O That sounded incorrect... I stopped because it was bringing attention to me, and I didn't want the attention it brought. I didn't WANT attention almost at all. Cutting just made me feel good, as you understand. Never wanted to actually die, though. Had really bad depression (I suffer from chronic depression, it just doesn't hit as much as it used to, thankfully). My nickname is suicide, because people thought I was cutting to kill myself. I made it into a joke. =D

It's good that you're better now. :) I suffer from bipolar disorder, which has many characteristics of depression. So I understand. =/

Thought about it alot over really petty things, now that I look back. I don't suffer from depression or such related problems. Hope you get better though.

I took too many pills before they had my crazy meds right because I couldn't take another day of hallucinations and inability to sleep. I spent some time in the crazy ward at the hospital, but fortunately they adjusted my meds to the point that I'm content with being alive. I have things that make me happy and things to look forward to in my life, which I couldn't say before.

Oh, I was put in a mental hospital because of "suicide watch" ... I told them they were pretty idiotic for putting someone in there that didn't want to die. Funny, though, I was put in the same room, same BED, that my brother was put in when he was around my age (at that time). So I had a nice laugh with that. I am not making my family look very sane. Wait, we're not.

yep, 5150'd about 2 years ago. it was a total mistake, though, my ''attempt'' was not even real, but i got put away anyway. i reasoned with the doctors though, so i was only in there for like 72 hours.

did you know that the youth have no rights and that the heath care system (especially for mental heath) is fucked up!?

now i have meds for depression and a ton of support, since my family and friends all understand what is going on/went on. it's all good- my life is headed in a great direction and i'll never have to go back to that awful place again, mistake or no.

and to the op, i really hope you feel better. its a dangerous habit! it is pretty hard to get out of, but you totally can, i did.

Yes. It was the worst day of my life.

Suicide isn't illegal technically. Assisting one is, though. But...how can suicide be illegal? Are they going to arrest your corpse?

But I digress. Yes, I have. Several times. Out of anger or depression. Failed 4 times, backed out 2. But now i'm terrified of dying. I have the worst 'i'm living forever' complex you'll ever find.

No, although I've come pretty close to it a few times when I was younger. I certainly used to think about it quite a lot, but I never seriously considered it as a solution. I just sort of toyed with the idea of it. I got locked away for a total of six days because they thought I was suicidal and I was cutting (this was when I was... 13, I think) and then about a month after that a deputy from the school had to take me to the hospital because I supposedly tried to OD. Even though I wasn't even really depressed at that time, and hadn't taken any pills at all. I was touched that my friend who turned me in cared but kind of pissed at her for not getting the story straight at all.

Now I'm... better, I guess. Handling things with less emotional outbursts and less self-destruction that I used to, at least.
