How Often Do You Think About Suicide?

Post Reply New Topic

I can't recall the last time I had a suicidal thought. It's been a few years or so & the difference has been that I figured out the biochemical causes of the depressive thoughts I once had and how to treat them via diet and natural medicines. It seems a distant past life when I thought and felt that way.

I do think about it when I hear about others' struggles, though. And I thought about it (not my own suicidal thoughts, but thinking about suicide itself) last night when I saw this meme pic on Facebook that I came here to share now:

I'm off the scale, i.e. I've thought about it less than once a year. I think about it only as a doomsday option, I want the ability to painlessly kill myself if we get a global holocaust or if I get an incurable disease that's so horrendous that I'd be better off dead.

Never because I don't hate myself...

Used to be daily, but I think its down to maybe 2 or 3 times a week, which relative to my life, is actually pretty good considering what I am going through.

A lot. I find mostly that dealing with other people brings me a lot of stress, but being lonely makes me sad. So I keep trying and getting hurt.

Sometimes I just wish I never had to wake up again. Sometimes I want to do something deliberate to make the pain stop.

But I won't because I have people who rely in me and I can't leave them.

it is too narrow a poll. Since suicide is the ultimate non-negotiable solution. There needs to be the rare and never categories.
With exception of tumultuous time in my 20s ...I maybe have though about it once a decade, but not in any serious way.
