Sounds like impulse control problem. I had them in the past where if I had a knife in my hands I was sometimes concern I might stab myself in some kind of out of control reflex.

I think in general impulsivity get less as one gets older. My guess is alcohol lowers the impulsive threshold.

I would assume if its related to hyperactivity than you could even try a non-stimulant like guanfacine to reduce it.

If my memory is correct fish oil does help with hyperactivity some. I take 6 grams daily myself.

Do not kill yourself, nobody should. It's a selfish act that never does anything right. It's horrible and you need to avoid those urges. Breathe in and out, go to a therapist please, and ask for advice. Everything can be dealt with, without any self-harm.

Please don't do anything, everyone has reasons to live, live life to the fullest and again, just don't do anything rash or harmful.

I could never kill myself....I'm very afraid of death......but I do wish I was never born.....nothing worng with that! I'm no sad sack though.....I am not a motherf****ng sad sack....UGH!! !! !! !! !!

I killed myself once.

Cheese grated it.

Richard, please feel better soon....everyone here does like you. Suicidal urges are usually temporary so do not succumb. I know nothing about addictive disorders, but I know they're readily treatable, which is good news for you. I'm sure there must be alternatives to AA, but would AA be so bad anyway? I do not know, just a suggestion. You have a lot of personality and potential, don't let yourself get too down, or worse.

Separate though: Camembert (sp? sorry!) - you're so silly! Have you been resurrected like a sea monkey? 9 lives?

Ya, i had no direction in life after collage, I abused pot and alcohol, got into trouble, horrible time in life, then I found a direction the idea that I can get a decent job and provide for myself, I did, but i still drink, and instead of smoking pot I abuse pain medication, its bad, but at this point nessissary for socialization and feeling better when i get down, which occures from time to time.

I have a grand vision of 1 day supporting a loving and supportive family, I have prepaired a little actually (i bought a home) but am years away from being really prepaired, but also years away from having a family (hopefully, probably)

have something to shoot for man, and then u will wanna cut back and work hard.

I got a home computer less than a month ago, so having no intrest in internet porn I went looking to see where else I could get into trouble. If ANYTHINGS available in cyberspace lets see. So while my friend was over I looked up killing myself. ( my friend said look up how to kill someone else and I looked at her like she was a fool and suggested she spend some time in the book department of the local army surplus)

I found out so much I felt crushed under the information. Killing yourself really isnt that easy. The only sure way they mentioned was taping dynamite to your head. Where am I going to get dynamite? Would I have the nerve to light that match?Most attempts can leave you alive but worse off.

It was depressing, finding out suicide was such an unproductive undertaking.

"undertaking"....
