For all the suicidal people....

Question

please tell me why you would want to kill yourself?, can your life really be that bad.. I'm a really optomistic person and although these words may not help: at school (i'm a junior) i like doing what u want no matter what people think, if someone rejects or dislikes what i do for no good reason i do it more, and i enjoy criticism and ignore it when it gets bad it takes alot to get me into a sad mood. my point is: why cant you all (people with low self esteem) just try an optomistic view of life trust me, it makes you stronger = happier

Answer 1

You are a dork.. Most people that are considering suicide are in a place where nothing else matters but themselves, they don't think about what their actions will do to others and how it will affect anyone. Their only concern is to escape whatever problem it is they feel they can no longer deal with. They are usually very sensitive loving people on the outside, but inner strife and the inability to reach out for answers to the questions they have is near impossible for them. If you know someone who is contemplating it, reach out to help, and dial 211, the national suicide hot line, reassurance that someone else cares and is willing to listen to their problem, no matter how petty they seem, will have a positive affect until professional help can be obtained. Otherwise if it is urgently needed dial 911 immediately.

Answer 2

When you realize how absolutely meaningless existence is, that there is no afterlife, when you see pictures and videos animals being butchered/cooked/eaten alive, people tortured, getting there arms and legs cut off and heads cut off, how hopeless everything is, maybe then you will feel as, at least I do. For all the "good" in the world, there sure is a lot of bad to drown it in.

Oh, and I am not suicidal in the sense that I have "attempted" suicide or am afraid of death, I have already planned to kill myself, I just still have a few things to do before I die.

Answer 3

Oh boy. You have no idea, do you?

Answer 4

It's almost like I want to see what happens on the other side, ya know?  Do I rot in the ground or do I float around here or something.  Life is cool, but people aren't my thing and they never will be.  Nothing is interesting anymore.  I'm not really explaining it right (I haven't slept in a while), but it's just like 'hey, this is cool and everything, but I'd really rather not bother'.  Just call me apathetic.

Answer 5

answering this question is rly gonna perk up all th suicidal ppl out there isnt it..listing all there problems..lol!!!!!!!

Answer 6

Why?

Family problems. I felt like no one cared. People lied. Stress. Stuff like that.

Some people just can't try optomistic.

Answer 7

Your optimism means nothing. If everything is taken away from you.. that means you've lost everytihng that makes you happy.. that makes you feel safe.. that gives you a reason to live.

I'm the same as you exept my optimism is replaced by hate and anger from creeps, heretics and b*****d kids who get everything for nothing.

Name evreything you love.. now take all that away.. instantly!

What do you feel!? Hate, anger, despair, need for vengence,self-pity and self-hate. Yeah.. think of sometihng optimistic about that.

Some people don't want an optimistic view of life. Its weak! The literal definition of weak. I don't have low self esteem. I'm the leader of my crew (metaphor). What kinda Q is that!? Replace low self esteem with optimism. You don't realise the inherent properties of hate..

If someone was told they are s**+ form the start of thir life

(slipknot members) how would you feel? Optimism won' work.

And the fact is optimism doesn't do anytihng. Its like hope. Hope is a lie. It matters not how much you hope and pray and want sometihng to happen. What matters is that you have willpower which will get you thru.

Answer 8

Suicide is NOT about low self esteem.  It is most often about altered state of thinking due to stress, depression, and or substance abuse.  In such an altered state, yes, life can seem that bad, and the person can not just decide to be happy because someone else thinks they should.  Telling them to do so just makes the problem worse.  They need medical/psychological intervention.

Drop by your school guidance office and read a few pamphlets or talk to a councelor - educate yourself about the facts before belittling  people in this type of crisis.

Just from your description of yourself, my opinion is your thrive of the rejection you get from doing your own thing because it draws attention to you, until the criticsm starts to ring true, so you then pretend it doesn't exist. Not the healthiest, nor actual optimistic way to deal with reality.  Maybe you should look into that, too (could be symptomatic of something other than you age and inexperience).  Nothing wrong with searching for your identity and being  your own person (lots of sucessful people are) but, as they say, you need to keep one foot grounded in the real world.

Answer 9

I don't deserve each breath.

I think I've got bipolar disorder

I'vve got barely any friends at all and were always fighting

I'm anorexic

I cut myself

My sister and brother have drug problems

Three of my granparents have cancer

My parents were emotinnaly abusive towards me.

I literaly have no reason whatsoever to live. Of I died no one would know the real me, I wonder if people would even realise I'm gone? Nothing to Lose by Billy Talent is almost if it was written for me, but I'm not that important. The only reason Im alive is because before they sing that song they say 'You are never ever alone.' Just those simple words make me want to stay alive long enough to thank them. Thats why.

Answer 10

If the suicidal were optimists, they would not be suicidal.

They are pessimists. And truthfully, all the good things in the world are unquestionably outnumbered by the bad. That's life. And sometimes these suicidal people are either much more sensitive to life's negativity, or are able to see negativity that we cannot.  That said, they may view things from a place that no one understands, including them.. these people may be pedophiles, sadists, schizophrenics, even the bi-polar disordered. Obviously there are many more reasons.. family, relationships, etc. We all know about that stuff.

Answer 11

because  some minutes , hours ,days etc. just suck and you just feel miserable and want to get it all over with before it gets worse. cause sometimes People=$h!t and your like everybody hates me now so fu(k um . and your afraid to kill them because your afraid of the blood thats going to be on your hands, so insted of killing them your saying to your self im not afarid to die.so therefor you just feel like all hope is gone..<33

Answer 12

If it were that simple, there would be no suicides.

And, yes...some lives are really that bad!  

Life can be brutally unforgiving.  Despair results when efforts to do better constantly fail.  Or, there simply is no answer to their problems.  Mentally, and physically, these people succumb to fatigue and try the last available means to stop the pain.

There is generally some form of mental illness involved in such cases, which further prevents a person from overcoming despair.

At times all we can do is show love and compassion to these individuals, and sometimes that's just enough to bring them back from the brink.

Answer 13

ur an idot, ur asking such a personal question, no-one has to tell u why they r so miserable or why they r so sad
