So, I almost attempted suicide tonight.?

Question

6 Tylenol... and then I stopped because the feeling subsided. I really f****** wish it hadn't. I've never felt this bad before to have finally been ready to end it. And then it just left me and I'm stuck here. Again. And I basically wasted 6 pills, because they won't do s****. Well, gonna buy more tomorrow just in case. Hopefully I can continue what I started without being such a coward.

Answer 1

wow, there are so many things i want to write you right now, but so little i feel like i can say. I have had three close friends commit suicide, I have felt the lowest lows of life, and I have felt the pain the you are feeling (although it may be hard to believe) I know you feel lonely, and life may a times feel hopeless, but it's not. I know the feeling of being stuck, of being hurt, of being left alone. I know the deep pain that comes with pain and sadness and confusion, and if you truly know these feelings as well, you would not put your family, your friends, your neighbors, your community through the extreme pain that they would feel if they lost you. I know sometimes you feel as though that may be the only way for anyone to truly understand how much you hurt, but it not. Please channel your feelings into movement towards life. Just do me one favor, although i know you dont know me, do this please. Make a list of all e things that you want to do in your life. I know it sounds silly, but just do it. Dont put the normal things like buy a house, get married, etc.. put things that are unique to you, things that only you want to do. when you are done with that list, picture the feeling of you crossing each one of those activities off, picture yourself. Don't cheat yourself from feeling that happiness, from feeling that pride in yourself, bc it is within you. Please

I dont know your life, background, or anything about you. But all i can say is this. Things CAN get better. Ive had strong depression for most of my life, and it seriously f*cked me up. And i always contiplated suicide, just about every day. But you have to trust me on this one, because things can get better, even when it seems impossible. Ive gone to the doctor and started medication, and it helps a little. Ive heard it doesnt work for some people, but it can work. And ive gotten out more in the world and have gotten more involved. Maintaining a job and socializing with friends and such. Just please dont go buy Tylenol, or even try to attempt another suicide. Youve got to hope for the best for now, cuz one day, things will change for the better

Answer 3

If you're joking please stop.  I don't want you to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, if I were 112 years old, I wouldn't do it because it would be the only thing I could look forward to!

Answer 4

Pills almost never work, no matter the dose. Instead of never waking up, you wake up in ICU, spend weeks in a regular hospital, then some more time in a mental hospital.

The mental hospital will put you on meds which will make you enjoy life and want to live, but you'll be living with major stomach damage from the pills.

You should get the an ER immediately, and save yourself the damage from the attempts. When you sign yourself in you'll be out within 72 hours(most times).

BTW. Tylenol is not a "suicide" pill. It'll make your organs shut down before it kills you. You'd have to deal with hours and hours of excruiating pain, and then probably still not die. Go to the ER or call 1-800-SUICIDE immediately.

Trust me on this. I'm a survivor of several attempts. I drank enough alcohol to have a blood alcohol level over 0.5(suppossed to stop heart at that level.) Mixed it with a killer dose(2 months worth) of prescription sleeping pills, along with a months worth of Xanax bars. I got cheated out of death, like most who try pills as their method.

Don't live with the pain any longer. Go to the ER so the dr's can help you make the pain go away.  

Answer 5

I wouldn't take anymore, because it is possible that you won't die on Tylenol, BUT you can ruin your kidneys....so a life with dialysis, or some help from someone you can talk to, which do you choose?

I hear your pain, but killing  yourself is no guarantee the pain will end....

Answer 6

I've been there.  The feelings pass. What I discovered was

that I needed to forgive myself for whatever it was I said or did.

Answer 7

Honey, please calm down.  Life is amazing

People can help you... I no thats not what you want, trust me, I've been through this.  But you have to realize that your actions will take away life experiances you will never have.  Please concider this before you do it again.  Because its not worth it.  Die naturally, and live a happy, long, life.

Im 13, and I had the same problem, but I'm better now.  There is hope!

Answer 8

I have a really good idea.  Why don't you get some pamprin and take a couple before you get to that point?  Believe me, it helps relax you, and makes you feel better.  If it doesn't work, I suggest you see a psychiatrist.  Please.

Answer 9

Please call your local Distress Centre or Crisis line if you feel suicidal. They can help you BEFORE you take action towards yourself, and there are teams such as the MRT (mobile response team) that depending on your situation can come out to your place and talk to you about what your going to do and give you suggestions and they really help!

Answer 10

I'm going to tell you something, it may seem like suicide is the answer.  And it might still feel that way tomorrow, but it's not.  I know because I've been there.  I took more pills than I can remember (and they weren't OTC) back in Feb. and all it really did was s***w my life up more.  I have no clue how close I was to being successful for the very simple reason I don't remember what happened.  I was going through a complete s*** time and was fighting bouts of mania.  I lost connections with people that told me there was nothing I could do to push them away because of stuff I did then but have no clue what it was that I actually did.

My point is, suicide is never the answer.  I have no idea how old you are but you're too young to die.  I don't care if you're 112 years old, you're still too young.  There are still things that you have to look forward to, things that I can't even begin to imagine.

I've been there.  I debated on ending my life because I didn't want to hurt anymore, I didn't want to think, and I didn't want to be a burden to the ones I care about and those who care about me.  But you want to know something I'm glad I didn't die.

And the truth is you're not a coward for not committing suicide.  It means there's a part of you, no matter how small, that wants to live.  Focus on that part and find some help.  Even if you decide not to try again you need to find some help.  

Answer 11

What I want to know is why you'd post that here. It's not like you don't know exactly what everyone is going to say. You don't actually want to do it or you'd have done it by now. If you're really going to commit suicide, then what's the point of getting complete strangers' opinion on it, and if you could be persuaded not to by complete strangers, then you never were in the first place or you were never serious about it. If you're going to tell people about it, tell people you know and love. They are the ones who'd have the opinions you'd care about. And even if you didn't care, they would. There's always someone who does. Cut the c**p. If you're bent on doing it, do it, but know how much guilt and how very much sadness you'll cause everyone you know. Even people you didn't think cared for you. And I've never heard of a case that couldn't be cured. Wouldn't you rather be content with living than frustrated with not dying?

Answer 12

If you are seriously considering suicide you have to go to a hospital or ER where they can keep you safe.  Things do get better.  I have battled serious depression for half my life & I have often been suicidal, I have been to a hospital a few times & it really helps to gain perspective.  But my boyfriend committed suicide this past June & so I have seen first hand what it does to families & friends, not to mention it is a permanent thing that is very serious.  It is an end to everything in your life, the things you love included, never seeing the people you care about. Life is a precious thing, and there is no way to say what could be accomplished in your life if you just hold on.  

Answer 13

hun please get help. don't go and get more pills.

i reckon the reason you've even said all this is because deep down you actually want someone to realise how much you're suffering, and want someone to listen to you and try to understand. i am willing to be that someone. email me if you like and i will be happy to listen. offload to me all your problems and worries, and it will make you feel a bit better, even if not by much.

please please don't kill yourself.

believe it or not, people do care. all your contacts care. i care. i would be upset if i found out that you'd killed yourself.

i cried before when i was told one of my contacts had killed themselves. they had really helped me through my problems and it felt like such a loss. luckily, it was a mistake, and though she'd attempted it, she had actually survived. i was so relieved and glad.

please don't be the next news of suicide i get.

you deserve another chance at life.

go get help, and don't give up yet.

let's both hang on in there.

(((hugs)))

here to talk.

Answer 14

Ha ha that's what I did on one of my bogus 'suicide attempts' (except I downed a bottle of vodka too).  Then after I woke up the first three things that crossed my mind (in order): 'Wow, I should've taken more Tylenol, I'm a wuss', 'Wow, I should've used something OTHER than Tylenol', then 'Wow, I'm another kind of dumbass'.  I mean sure, I've had more suicidal thoughts than the normal person should, but it's not worth it once you get off the 'suicidal high'.  Then it's more of a dull ache of 'Man, living sucks.  But maybe I should wait and see what the next five years bring me, then I'll decide.'
