Suicide is what brought me out here today. So if you don't know what suicide is you can just look at this definition I took out of Wikipedia: Suicide= is the act of intentionally causing one's own death. I am sure we all had the feeling to do it once in our life. Around 800,000 to one million people die from it each year. We can prevent that. If you are getting bullied its just best to tell a adult. Better then taking your own life, once you are in heaven there is no coming back. Then you are going to "live" the rest of your life in shame. So last month somebody in my neighborhood took there own life. She had three children and loving family and friends. I bet her children were crushed, they probably were thinking the reason there mother took her life was because of them. Now think, you took your own life your parents and friends become depressed especially your little sister she takes her own life. How would you feel? If you feel suicidal you can just look at this website to find your region and then find what center to contact. http://www.suicide.org/suicide-hotlines.html "If you kill yourself your also killing the ones who loves you" -Author Unknown
Life may seem too hard at times, too hard to endure, but there is always light at the end of the tunnel. Life is the most valuable thing you have, and it can quickly come to an end. There is no "undo" button in life
Was it really a good idea to put "Your vote will be publically visible" on a pole about suicide attempts? EDIT: Thank you to the person who edited the poll.
Just 'cause I'm Mr. Gloom....Life is: Working so you can have a place to sleep, and a car to get back and forth to work...You work..so that you can continue to work... life...totally worth it..
Thanks for posting this. I thought of doing this myself, but I decided I didn't want attention from the community on this type of topic. Although, I would have worded what you said much differently...
I'm about to rage on this with my true knowledge. But don't want to upset this community...because they are weak.
Weakness or strength is different for everyone. I knew a lady who took her life last month also. She also had three kids. I couldn't begin to understand what she was going through. Personally suicide has never entered my mind. But I know many who have thought about it. Some who have tried. I feel for them and if anyone just needs someone to talk to I am here msg me.
Indeed this is a touchy topic, I don't want to come across too tough. EffinBatman is right, weakness or strength is different for everyone. See I will be frank, I think about suicide almost every week since I have been dealing severe pain for many months now. Thinking it will never end...but. I am a survivor. I won't quit, there are many reasons why I refuse to quit, but there are many reasons why I want to give up. I will tell you this. If you think this life is hard and things are to their end, I know for a fact, it's gets much harder after here. Most of you are naive. Pain, experience, love, betrayal, evil, are things we all deal with. It's only part of life. Enduring is the other half. I personally have experience with most of these ruined views, if you decide to message me with a problem and want a possible resolve, then I insist you PM me. Otherwise, if you are not serious about this content, I advise you to turn away and not bother me.
Good advice guys I just have to say make the best you can out of life no matter what happens. There is always a good side to everything even if you or I cant see it. edit-there is not a good side to the bad things like suicide, killing but i feel you got what i meant.
I have never really thought about committing suicide. Not even a the lowest points of my life have I even remotely considered it. For one, I'm just a naturally joyful person. But just as importantly, I have known people who have committed suicide, and have seen what it has done to their family and friends, and I just couldn't put those I love through that. Nothing could make me do that to them. Note, this is not to say that I think I love those near me more than others love those near to them. I am simply thankful that I am not at the point where rational thought has given way to the living hell inside of one's own head.
One thing i see a lot now days is people telling others to kill themselves. Little do they know people auctualy and do it, then that person he told to kill them-self would be living the rest of his life under guilt because he said that. In fact, a owner of server (a disgusting person in general) who bullies people because they betray his faction or just in general talk trash about him, or say hes a horrible owner because he abuses a lot. recently. Player on his server committed Sucide. But what make me and many other people angry is he re-enforced a rule on his server "telling anyone to commit Sucide will result in permban" 5 minutes later he removed the post stating that rule. He continues to abuse people on his server and still telling them to kill themselvs. I'm not going to name him. But this person is disgusting person and should NOT be playing Minecraft or any game. He Doesn't care about anyone. This is a true storey. All I'm trying to say to you guys, think what you say!
I too think about it several times a week. You can see why here. http://empireminecraft.com/threads/hey-emc.44537/ I would type more but on cell phone and it is charging. You can also see there are several others that think about it as shown in the thread.
I have thought about killing myself (as I'm sure people who remember most of my threads throughout 2012 and early 2013 know ) plenty of times. I have threatened to kill myself to people since I was 9 years old, simply because I was bullied, I told adults, and nothing was done. Eventually, I just started taking matters into my own hands when I was like, 10, and started physically fighting back. That helped an absolute ton. My experience with that is probably different from other people's. The teachers in my primary school liked to think they were the best teachers in the world (which they still do). They, needless to say, weren't. They thought if they got the bullies to write me a note (they only got two of them because literally my whole class bullied for me a reason I still don't understand or want to know) and say a prayer for me it would all be ok. But it wasn't, and the bullying just got worse. I'd also just like to say that I never committed suicide mainly because I was scared of death at the time and I didn't want to harm my family. My parents, at the time (they're now pretty successful-ish in life ), were poor. My dad was (and is) on minimum wage, doing a job where he could seriously injure himself, and my mum was in university studying for something she never actually went into, and my mum and dad would get into arguments at night because of something related to being evicted or something. We're not rich, but we're not as poor as we were anymore thanks to my mum now earning something like 3-5 grand a year (most of that goes to taxes and paying back loans she took out years ago) which is set to improve this year I also occasionally become kinda depressed, but I don't let it show and I try to shut it off as much as I can. Its only there, for like, a week at most, and I haven't had a 'relapse' thing since September when I decided to just not a give a crap about what other people think of me. By who? Himself? Mojang won't shut down a server because of things like that. If people don't like what the server owner is doing, then don't play on his/her server. It's as simple as that.
I have never thought about it. When you feel down the best thing to do is talk to someone you love. Whenever I get upset I call my grandpa and talk about football for 4+hours.
Since last June, I had negative thoughts that demotivated me to follow my interests, including Minecraft. I have implied several times possible attempts of banishing myself from the world, but none of them had gone through. If you notice one of my messages that could refer to suicide, it'll usually disappear over time.
Currently I am a happy person and not having any issues of 'depression'. (the medical kind) I have experienced prolonged bouts of trying not to want to hate life. Extended feelings that nothing will ever get any better and feeling that life is horrible. At moments, wanting to die or hoping to... I am guessing this is where it starts and goes downhill from there. Nobody has to feel that way, but it's not fair to tell a depressed person that it's their fault or that they should just be stronger or anything like that. You wouldn't tell a person with cancer or a broken bone to just 'be happy', it would only make things worse. I was much better off when I was able to admit that it was more than I could handle on my own and ask for help.
