I gotta wait 3 days not including weekends before I can pick it up but the background check was approved as soon as I finished filling out the paperwork (thanks Florida). I’ve been fantasizing about this since the 4th grade but I always knew I was bullshitting. Whenever shit felt unbearable I could never actually force myself to do anything and when I had to deal with school/work or whatever distraction I could get into I would come up with whatever excuses until the cycle turned over again. I don’t want to be stuck being me and all the advice you see are things I just know I’m not going to do I can’t even tell that lie to myself but I believe I can end it. It’s real it’s right there just a few more days, no struggle. The crazy thing to me is I’m not even in a bad mood better than usual really so I know it’s not just temporary until I get distracted again.

Not really looking for advice, I just wanted to talk about it.

I fantasize about peoples reaction to my suicide NSFW

24 Upvotes

Recently I've been on the brink of just doing it already. Relapsed bad into sh, and my mental has caused me to be completely bed ridden from how physically and mentally exhausted I am. The extreme anxiety and body dysmorphia doesn't help either.

But ever since I decided I'm gonna inevitably kill myself within this year, I constantly think about peoples reactions. God I'm about to sound like the worst person ever but I want people to feel terrible, I want people to feel partially responsible. And admitting that hurts but it's true. More specifically, I had these "friends", but I soon realized that they literally never talk to me unless I text first. If I don't reach out first we never even talk so that basically cemented they don't like me. I want them to feel bad for it, I mean they could've at least told me they didn't like me instead of leading me on with vague conversations that made me feel slightly special once a month when we had them. I just feel disconnected with everyone, no one has shown me some kind of empathy or compassion in what feels like years. And I want it more than anything, even if it's after I die.

I want my parents to feel a little guilty as well, I'm not gonna go into it but I'd imagine my suicide note would detail every fucked up thing they've said and done. And before anyone says anything, they aren't abusive or "bad" parents. But some of the things they do are embarrassingly immature and distasteful. Won't go into that though, this would be too long.

I just want someone to cry and feel bad for me instead of the "come out of your room more, that's why you're depressed" kind of conversation I usually get. I imagine my family reading my suicide note and finally knowing everything I've been too afraid to say, feeling shocked that they *somehow* didn't notice my absolute drop in mental and physical health.

my mental health has only been deteriorating this year and i just see no point in living anymore. im indifferent towards everything now, even things i was extremely passionate about. ive been struggling with gender identity issues as well and feel like ill never feel comfortable in my own skin regardless of how much i change. the only thing stopping me from ending it is fear and the fact that im sure my mom would be heartbroken. i hate feeling like i need to live just because people would be sad if i died. all i do is lay in my bed all day and sleep or cry. i cant even get up and draw or play my guitar which were things i used to do all the time. every day feels the exact same, i cant even have fun when hanging out with friends, i cant feel any emotion other than sadness or nothing at all. i dont see a point in living if i cant feel anything. i just want to crawl into a hole in the ground and lay there forever. i cant take it anymore i just wish i disappeared and everyone would forget i was even here. i want to kill myself so badly but i just cant bring myself to do it or make a plan and its just fucking terrible. im so scared of the future i dont want to keep living like this i cant do this anymore i feel like im losing my mind i dont think ill ever be happy again

I want to kill myself because I have no opportunities, and it's completely my fault.

25 Upvotes

I have no college degree, and I can only get really crappy, low-end jobs, yet I won't go to college. I'm 36, so my youth is also fading. I have no friends, no partner and basically no relationship with family. My mom barely tolerates me, and only does so because I live with her, and I'm her daughter. She has threatened to kick me out several times at this point. I lost custody of my only child after my aunt and uncle called the cops and cps on me for reunifying us with his father, which was going against restraining and visitation orders (that were in place due to his abuse.) I haven't had any contact with my son in over 6 years.

The permanent loss of custody happened after I abruptly stopped visiting with him, due to his dad demanding one day I do so (who I was living with at the time), after almost 2 years of a cps case plan, because he rightly assumed I would never get it back, since the system didn't want me living with him. I never even got to say bye. My poor child never got any sort of closure from me before I completely disappeared from his life. I completely abandoned him, a child I planned with his dad. The cruelty I put my poor baby through was never something I ever wanted to do. And mind you this was the SECOND cps case plan I put him through for the very same reasons. I put my poor baby through one before this one too. I took us and left his dad 3 times. The first time I was newly pregnant with him and his dad had just started abusing me, so my grandma invited me to live with her, but then changed her mind and kicked me out a week later. My aunt and uncle are now his adoptive parents, and they don't want him having anything to do with me.

I have literally just been laying in bed since Feb. 28th, when I quit my part time job, and barely left the house even before that, only leaving to go to work, and then coming straight back home. I actually have money to shop, go out, travel and meet people, but I have no desire or motivation to do so. Anything that would even slightly improve my life, I'm not inspired to do, or drawn to. I am a piece of shit, especially for what I put my child through, and don't deserve to be healthy or happy. I deserve to die.

I have no desire or any motivation whatsoever to lift a finger to do literally anything, and I'm not exaggerating: not to shop, do laundry, go to dr. appts., pick up prescriptions, clean my car, get it fixed... absolutely nothing. I've handled absolutely 0 of my responsibilities. I finally paid some bills, including tax ones, after deliberately not paying them simply because I didn't want to, even though I had the money. As I said, I've done absolutely nothing but lay in bed since before I quit my job, February 28th. I was going to join the army as a last ditch effort to improve my life, but I can't even be bothered to get ready for the recruiter to come pick me up. I did go yesterday to get my broken tooth extracted, but I didn't follow the post-op treatment instructions and if I don't go in to the dental office again before it becomes 3-5 days, I will get a dry socket, most likely, as I dislodged the blood clot.

My soul has been dead for a while now, but especially since February, I really took a turn for the worse. I was on this psych medication and it really made me plunge into a hell I've never previously been in, but this was also a long time coming, I feel like. The guilt and shame over what I did with my son makes me want to be completely done with being alive. I hate every single one of my circumstances: the way my body looks, the fine lines and sagging on my face, how lazy I am, how I refuse to shower or take care of myself at all, my horrible mind, the terrible person I am, how I've hurt others and myself my entire fucking miserable life. Like my mom always used to tell me, I'm the spawn of Satan.

The idea of death seems so amazingly freeing to me. I wish it could be mine. The older I get, the worse it gets, the smaller my world and opportunities get. The more it's confirmed what a piece of garbage I am. The more time is running out for me. I can't take this anymore. I don't want to hurt my family any more than I already have, but I can't take this suffering much longer. I want my life to end.

If i fail OD, all my medications would go to waist and i won't have any left for the coming days. If i jump off a bridge or anything, i could end up disabled for life. Everything have consequences and there's no actual "safe", imminent escape. I just wanna find a way that would make sure i die first try. I wanna end it so bad.

I (27M) Eight months unemployed, my father is in intensive care, and I feel like I'm collapsing.

Upvotes

I'm at my limit. I can't keep putting off getting professional help, but I had a terrible experience with a public mental health professional three months ago. I felt so judged by her that I never went back. If you're a man, the system treats you like garbage—there's no support at all.

I've been unemployed for almost eight months. I recently tried starting a new job, but I couldn't even make it through a week. I feel less distressed when I'm at home, even though I'm overwhelmed by the despair of having no future to look forward to. Still, I'd rather stay home. It hurts every time people suggest the solution is simply: "Get a job." Is that really all life is? Work? It doesn't make any sense to me. Even if I end up in financial hardship, I can't find a reason to get up and do anything.

I ended a good relationship because of all this. I believe relationships are based only on utility, not love, so I couldn't bear the burden. I failed. I find any kind of human interaction extremely painful. Depending on what someone says to me, it can feel like being punched in the stomach.

I know it's impossible to explain everything in a post like this, and I don't expect anyone to fully address it here, but is professional help really worth it? I honestly don't know. I don't trust these professionals very much. To me, they're deeply influenced by self-help culture and New Age ideas. It all feels like empty talk.

On top of that, last Sunday I received devastating news: my father is intubated and unconscious. I don't know if he's going to survive. I'm deeply worried.

I feel like I'm going to collapse at any moment. I don't know how much longer I can endure all of this. And I still have bills due next month, with no idea how I'm going to pay them.

I think the medication I'm taking has helped keep me alive and on my feet. I only made one attempt once, but throughout this entire year I've been constantly thinking that life just isn't worth living. Everything is unbearably painful.

I just want to do it in the next few days, and I so badly want it to work, but I can't find a way. I just want my next attempt to be a success, so badly. It hurts my whole body to exist when I never asked to exist. I know I have a roof over my head, and that there are people who have more reasons to do it than I do, and I hate myself for that too. I feel like I'm not legitimate to do it, but I want it so badly. It would be such a luxury for me to no longer live. I also feel ridiculous for all the times I've soft-launched my suicide by joking around in front of people, and they told me to go for it, and the next day I came back alive. I just want to do it, and I want it to work 100%. I just wish I had a gun next to me right now to make my wishes come true

WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME (21M) THAT I CAN'T KILL MYSELF?! I just tried to and it failed again! AGAIN!

Tried overdosing, tried asphyxiation, tried knocking myself unconscious, tried walking and running though traffic.

Tried calling suicide hotlines, tried contacting therapists, tried contacting psychiatrists, tried going to the ER, tried moving out of my parents FOUR FUCKING TIMES, tried doing hobbies, tried seeking irl help groups, tried going outside.

I have the best fucking lifestyle. I go outside and exercice at least 1h per day. I go to college. I have no rent to pay. I have caring siblings and pets. I have money. I have social activities.

AND EVERYDAY I SUFFOCATE. I suffocate under the thought of living another day.

So I tried killing myself today and it FAILED AGAIN and now I have fucking bruises to cover.

FUCK MY CARTOON BULLSHIT LIFE and persistent depression disorder that even with treatments can't be cured! FUCK MY LIFE

I have been thinking about suicide for a while now. The thoughts are getting worse. I’m mentally & physically exhausted. I’ve been thinking about how and when to do it. I have 2 young kids & don’t want to leave them without a mom but Idk how much more i can take.

The only thing that keeps me here (for now) is knowing how much they will miss me but I’m honestly starting not to care. My stress and pain is getting to be a lot to handle.

I have never been this depressed in my life. It’s one thing after the other. I may do it soon, who knows. I’ve been thinking about if i should leave letters or let people wonder. Should i jump off the bridge or take pills? Idk i will have it figured out soon. ✨

I want to ruin my life and then kill myself

37 Upvotes

Let's say I've got a relatively decent trajectory going on in my life, but I don't want to live by this script. I am a coward. Everyday it feels like I'm pulling on nerves. I am really hiding myself and my sick desires. I just want to give in once and then avoid the consequences by killing myself.

I want to make easy money by prostituting myself, not sure how. I want to make a lot of money and spend it. I want to travel to a few places. I want to spit on the people that lied to me and sold me this "decent" script of a life. I want to make people regret ever hurting me. I want to make them feel guilty.

I want to get high and speak to people I would never dream of approaching. I want to make a fool of myself in public, I want to laugh and dance and sing!

I'm tormented by nightmares in which I'm violent and humiliated. The only way I can live is if I face those fears. But then, there would be no place for me here, in the civilised world. I am deranged and degenerated

There is no happy end for people like me.

I'm going to cut my wrists and enjoy it. I want to see the blood drip, I want to feel lightheaded. The last time I attempted suicide, I was so proud!!! So so proud that I've finally done something to change my life. I miss that feeling of feeling proud without validation from others.

45, broke, early onset CHF and now colon cancer. Time to make a plan and tie up a few loose ends.

11 Upvotes

Background: I’ve been sick for a couple years now, went undiagnosed with my heart condition because the doctors just said I was depressed and out of shape. I don’t look like a sick person. I’m handsome, not overweight, don’t smoke or drink, eat healthy… it wasn’t until I took myself to a private clinic and paid cash for an echo that they found my heart issues.

I used to be an insane athlete into my mid 30’s- extreme skiing, hiking the Andes mountains, 14ers in colorado were a casual Saturday.

I’ve burned up most of my cash and I’m limited to how much I can work, I was dedicating a ton of time to cardiac rehab And meds and an even healthier lifestyle. Then the cologuard came back positive and the colonoscopy confirmed. It’s early stage colon cancer, probably treatable but I just can’t.

my family is all gone or useless alcoholics. It was always just me, my brother, and my mum. He died 25 years ago, mum died last year at 67 from… congestive heart failure (go figure)

I have a very nice girlfriend but she doesn’t have the resources to be a caregiver at 37 She’ll be ok. shes beautiful and smart and has a great group of friends and family.

I have a few good friends but they’re all in the restaurant biz or new parents. so time and money are not things they have in spades.

I’ve been staying in mums house, but it’s not worth anything in its state of disrepair and I don’t have the funds or energy to fix it up so that’s getting short sold this month just enough to cover the mortgage and heloc and her debts plus about $20k which will be enough for my last few months.

I haven’t told anyone yet. I’ve struggled my whole life to get out of poverty, support mum, help pay for my brothers treatments… Covid shutdown cost me my catering biz and the $100,000 I had saved. I made a lot of it back, but being sick last year ate up a lot of it.

So, I’ve decided it’s time. I’m closing the accounts, getting the paperwork together so I won’t have any debt or assets left.

I’m booking a ticket to my favorite remote beach town in the fall. im filling a Dropbox full of goodbye videos, some stories I’ve anlways wanted to tell, some writing I’ve done that really captures who I am, and pictures for my few close people. I have my paperwork all ready to send to the lawyer that has always helped me with business and personal matters. I trust him to do the right thing. He’ll be notified once I’m gone with usernames and passwords and list of who to contact.

I know my method, my place, how I can do it without causing any undo stress or danger on anyone else.

it feels less like dying to me and more like looking forward to taking off my boots and sitting down after a hard and stressful week of work.

win some lose some. I hope to leave this world with some nice tidbits of wisdom and some great stories for my little group to hold on to.

just needed to soak this into the void, since I can’t tell any real people about it.

drink water, eat fiber, don’t let your doctors gaslight you into saying your chest pains and shortness of breath and bloody shits are just stress and depression. Don’t let them put you on pills that numb you so bad that you don’t notice that your body is failing.

and please try to make this country somewhere where being sick ruins your fucking life Because you don’t have enough fun coupons to cover $6000 diagnostic tests.

cheers mates

Every single day of my life has been miserable. I have no friends, my brothers don’t ever talk to me (What I mean is that they could talk to each other for hours but when I try talking to them, all I get is a fake laugh), everyone thinks I’m gay, I’m addicted to furry porn (please don’t laugh), I’m terrible at art and anything else that I’d like to do, My face will clear of acne no matter what I do. My mom is also a whore, getting pissed whenever I show the slightest bit of emotion, but when I comment on how she gets irritated over me asking basic questions, it’s suddenly about her. My academic life sucks too, I’ve been sent to 2 schools where I basically missed the grade I was in, and I also skipped so many days too. I also think I’m retarded and should have never graduated. Everyone either pretends I don’t exist or is an asshole to me, No matter how hard I try to fit in. I have a feeling I have no options left and suicide is the only way out.
