Is it normal to think about suicide everyday?

Though it may be something many people experience, this isn't something that I want to consider 'normal'. Suicidal thoughts can be very harmful and if it's something you're experiencing daily then it may be best to reach out for some help. You don't need to be in that much pain all the time. I promise it can get better if you decide that's what you want.

There is a difference between thinking about it and thinking about "doing" it. Thinking about it may be when you are thinking about how people do it and why. But thinking about suicide is not something to do. Whether it is normal or not is debatable because wanting to escape is common. But, it is not right. Life is about living and not giving up. If you are considering suicide, try talking to someone who would be understanding and who you feel would help you feel better.

Depending on your situation it can be more normal to think about suicide every day, but not act upon it. A lot of people are unhappy with their lives and think about suicide because of it, but plenty of people think about suicide and realise they want to change their lives around, so that will pass.

NO, it is not. You should be able to see the beauty of each day, be grateful for another day added to your life. You should be able to look in the mirror and appreciate the fact that you are beautifully and wonderfully made. You should be good to yourself. You should love yourself. Seek for the truth with everything that is within you and use your energy by searching for the truth instead of trying to harm yourself. Find out first what you will discover in eternity before dreaming/contemplating suicide. I was there once, wanted to end it all but the fear of the Lord ( and His command, You shall not murder) made me reconsider. I am glad I did. Life is worth living. You are immensely precious.

It is unfortunately not uncommon to think about suicide everyday, but that does not mean it's healthy. The idea that suicide is a go-to option is a seed planted deeply in all of us. In social spaces, phrases relating to it have become increasingly common; in particular, online sites such as social media have begun to treat suicide so casually, and sometimes even as a joke. As an example, "kms" and "kys" have become common abbreviations. This is not meant to be a scornful post towards social media. In one way, the ability to share the feelings of suicidalness online and maybe cope about it through humor may make some feel less alone or ostracized for their thoughts. However, as the jokes become more common and used as a write off for any negative emotion, the repetition of the intention, even if only jokingly, becomes a trained response. Personally, I remember social media being my first exposure to suicidalness, and of course, it was very casual. The more I saw of it, the more normalized it became, and soon, it was a solid thinking pattern in my brain. Because of this, I've begun to change my response to negative happenings from, "I want to kill myself" (and meaning it), to, "I want to go to bed"/"I want to lie down"/etc. I still get suicidal thoughts, but by decreasing my more casual ones, I've found the amount of more serious ones to decrease as well. Note: another thing which may cause suicidal thoughts every day may actually be OCD. I had a period of time (about a year) where suicide was a heavy intrusive thought that I couldn't shake. I mention this particular situation in case this resonates with someone as an "aha!" sort of moment.

No, it is not normal to think about suicide everyday. It is a sign that you are overwhelmed or could be going through emotional or mental pain. Talking to someone (a professional is preferred) but talking to someone can help you feel a lot better. A professional may be able to pinpoint the cause behind it and even shed light on the way forward. Remember that your life is important, no matter how low you feel. And that the best thing you can do is to stay alive. Sometimes we are not okay- and that is okay. Just ask for help from trusted friends, family or the listeners you find here. If it persists then I think consider getting some professional help. Your life is important.

Depending on your own situation, definitely. Last year, when I was really struggling with my mental health, I thought about suicide practically everyday. Sometimes it was active thoughts (e.g. “I want to kill myself”), but most of the time, it was more passive thoughts (e.g. “I just want to escape this pain”). When you’re going through a difficult time, your mind starts to filter through all the different ways you could alleviate that pain, and unfortunately, if the situation is bad enough, you might even contemplate suicide. One healthy way I’ve found to address this is whenever I had a suicidal thought, I’d redirect myself to the present moment and think of something healthy I could do to manage my pain. Some of these coping skills included talking through it with a parent or my therapist, relaxation breathing, and engaging in a mindful activity. Suicidal thoughts can be difficult, but once you find healthy ways to cope, they become more infrequent and easier to manage.

I am no therapist but as far as I know, suicidal thoughts everyday is not to be considered healthy. It may mean that you’re going through something more mentally and should seek help of a professional. If you are having these thoughts seriously and may even intend to take action I highly suggest seeking help. But no I don’t think it’s normal to think about suicide everyday. Sometimes even I occasionally wonder but I intend on taking no action so but otherwise it’s a serious thing. You may be going through some mental disorders and it’s good to recognize those as soon as possible and to seek help.

It is not. Please don't think about suicides every now and then. People who end their lives go against the life cycle and get trapped. It's worse than being dead. You will be in much more pain than you initially were in. Start looking at things that make you happy, go out, feel the air and make friends. Live for yourself and the parents because of whom you are here. Everyone has problems of different levels and intensity, but we should never give up. Show your life that you survived and that you are strong enough to handle battles rather than surrendering. See how your life changes. :)

Not for most people, it's best to get some help if you're feeling this way. No one is alone, and everyone needs help sometimes. Don't be afraid to get help. No one is alone in this world and you shouldn't be nervous or feel ashamed for feeling this way. I have delt with this as well but keeping it in for a long time only makes things worse, getting help will sufice. Make sure you don't put yourself in places you know hurt you, try your best to be happy. If it all goes down, contact people you love it will help.

Unfortunately suicide is common. Thinking about suicide is wanting whatever pain you have to end. It is natural to want pain to stop, but for a person to want to end it by dying, says that the pain takes over their lives. So it is normal in a sense that it is common, but not normal as in it should be brushed off. It is never good for pain to take over our lives. If this feels like it is happening for you, seek help from other people, like doctors and other professionals. You can also visit http://www.suicide.org/. Also remember that you are never alone. So many people these days are going through a lot of pain. The good news is that others want to help you. In fact some even make it there job to help you.

No. It is not normal to be feeling this way, but you are not alone. Search for things you love, keep yourself occupied, talk. TALK! communication is the most important step to recovery (after acceptance). Talk to someone you trust and always feel welcomed to talk to me or anyone here. But just know, you are worthy, you are loved, it may not feel like it, but you have a important purpose in this world.

No it isn't normal, it is very dangerous, harmful, and you think of yourself as a dumb, innocent person. Going through daily struggles of your life, like maybe parents fighting, dealing with bullies, depression, being a teen, and wayyy way more... But just know you have to go with the flow of things in your life, through the tough and the bad. KNow that there indeed is people for you, you just have to find them...Know that you aren't the only one dealing with this, and mostly know that you were given life for a reason, for people to love, hate, hurt, you and feel. (way more things)

First off I want to say that I am sorry that you feel like suicide is perhaps the only option, also that I get it and you are far from alone in this. Unfortunately, suicide or suicidal thoughts are a common experience in so many peoples lives; this to say, that doesn't normalise it or make it okay. You don't have to face these thoughts alone, there is a whole community here to support you. If you can reach out to your family and friends, let them know a bit about what is going on, and perhaps see a therapist (did you know that you can access counselling online? you can even do it here on 7Cups) though we are not professionally trained, if you are not in danger of acting on these thoughts (if you are call a hotline or go to the hospital as we are not a emergency service) you are more than welcome to connect with a listener here at 7Cups, we are always here for you. If you ever want to chat, I am here for you, don't be afraid to reach out. I know that reaching out can be the hardest and most rewarding thing, and I know that you are brave from just asking this question. Best of luck

Thank you for reaching out! It is normal to think, feel, and interact with your own conscious mind as it projects onto the physical world. To think of suicide everyday wouldn't be considered normal or generally healthy at all, for the reason that these thoughts can be manifested into a reality of your own. Your health should pretty much always come first and those thoughts that counter the ones of suicide should be considered your good thoughts. You are important and without you, how many things can you personally imagine could go wrong? The dominoes that fall and collapse onto each other affect people to people, so how much of an impact would a suicide really have? The answer should be "a lot", whether you realise it or not. There is always another way, just remember that. For urgent action please refer to 7cups.com/crisis for support as listeners on 7 cups are not trained to support those fully in suicidal thoughts. After receiving support for suicidal tendencies, ideation you are welcome to chat 1-1 with our listeners. Wishing you get all the support needed!

It's a very natural thing to think about suicide, but often people dismiss the thought just as quickly as it comes. When suicidal thoughts happen more frequently, this is when things can become problematic. Especially if you're thinking about suicide daily, and it's starting to impact aspects of your life. One of the things that can help is sharing these thoughts with someone, whether that be a listener or a therapist. Being able to share them can help lessen the intensity and reduce the thoughts completely. I hope that this is helpful to you. Don't be afraid to reach out.

It’s hard to judge things in terms of normal or not normal. It might be your reality right now and that does not make you “crazy”. All things considered it might not be unreasonable to think the way you do. However this way of thinking is not healthy and can become very dangerous. Keep in mind that depression or the momentary weight of the situation you’re going through might change your perception of the world around you and make it harder for you to think in different patterns and see positive aspects in your life. However that doesn’t mean that they are nonexistent. What you’re experiencing is very real and to be taken seriously but it is not all there is in life. I would advise you to seek help, through a suicide hotline or a counselling centre to help you take the first steps towards recovery. Try to put some trust in the fact that there will be other things in life than what you are experiencing in life right now, even if that’s a difficult thing to do. I wish you all the very best.

No its not. If you think you are in crisis, I would recommend you to check this link www.7cups.com/crisis or get a professional help if possible. Also remember you are not alone we are in this together and this time shall pass too. I hope everything gets better soon for you. Dark tunnels will surely end one day paving the way for brightness, dark clouds don't remain forever my friend. Believe in yourself and I know you will do great.

Nope, that is not normal. But you know that, otherwise you wouldn't have asked. Humans are inclined to life in almost all the details of their existence. In the way mothers will protect their offspring and in the way it is physically inmpossible to strangle yourself. That will to live inside of you was also the part that asked this question. You probably have a life right now that you really do not want. Maybe it is your circumstances, your health, your family or maybe just who you are that make you not want to keep exisitng. you want to stop doing this man-made ratrace of living. I am here to tell you that I understand that. I really do. Life can be so hard and so ugly. But it is also beautiful and lovely sometimes. There are people who will help you to find a life that you want to keep living. There are ways to get to an existence that you actually enjoy most of the time. You will get there. you are strong and the life in you is strong. Where I'm from we have a saying: where there is life there is hope. There is hope in you too my friend. Keep if alive and you will bloom.

No, it is not normal or healthy. Please remember that if you are thinking about suicide every day that your mind is ill and that it is not your fault that you are feeling this way. With help and compassion, your mind can and will recover. I'm so sorry you are feeling this way. I know the stress of everyday life can be unbearable at times. Please trust me when I say that in time it will get better. Please look up suicide resources on this website and in your area. You are worthy and deserving of getting help, and feeling better.

If you think about ending your life everyday, that is not normal and you might need help from a professional. If you ever find yourself planning or about to engage in a suicidal act, please take a moment first to call the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at 1-800-273-8255. They are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and you will remain anonymous. If, on the other hand, you think about suicide as an interesting phenomenon and not as something you want to do, then I think it’s as normal as any other thought. People get fascinated by any number of subjects, and the subject of suicide is a complex and difficult problem to grapple with. If you’re the kind of person who likes to be challenged by difficult questions, then don’t worry if you grapple with the reality that people die from suicide. Either way, please monitor your own relationship with the thought of suicide, and reach out for help if you feel life is becoming too much for you to handle.

No, it's not normal. Please seek help or text the crisis line they are there for suicidal idealization and can help. 24/7. Counseling is needed if thoughts are ongoing and you cannot shake them.

Depression can cause suicidal idealization, sadness, loss of relationships and many other mental health issues. It is ok to reach out for help that is why we have counselors to help.

No, it is not normal to think about suicide every day. If you are having serious suicidal ideations I would strongly recommend that you call a hotline or reach out to a trained professional who can help you through this difficult time in your life. Seeing a counsellor or therapist can be beneficial, as can sharing your thoughts and feeling with a trusted friend or guardian who has the emotional and mental capacity for it. I believe that you have it in you to keep on going. Live for the small moments and take life one day at a time. It will get better eventually, i promise.

Thoughts about suicide is a grey area. It's not healthy to think of it as either being normal or unnatural. When it comes down to it though, thoughts of suicide are very common. People don't necessarily have to have a mental health disorder to have thoughts about taking their life. It can often be a generic thought or an indicator of high stress levels. It's less common to think about ending ones life everyday with any other thoughts attached to it. If it gets to a point that it becomes concerning however, go to see a doctor. They can always start you off on the right course of action. If a feeling is ever intense, A&E is always a safe place to go!

Actually, no. This is a huge sign of depression, and you need to talk to someone about it. If you are a student, talk to your guidance counselor about this. If you are already working, talk to a therapist or your doctor. Ask for reccommendations as to whom you can ask for help. Thinking about suicide everyday is already a sign as I said earlier of depression. Talk to someone, don't be afraid or shy to ask for help, this is not something you should be dealing on your own. Talk to a friend or a parent or even anyone you are comfortable with.

No i think its not. Life is all about journey. Sometimes this could be so boring n frustrating. Sometimes its just tiring himself. But its life. Its a gift of God, n nature. So have to face every problem. Sometime situation will never be able to at our hand. N its kill everyday us and can hamper our daily life. But we have to understand the situation n find out the path to get rid sll of this. If someone feel suicuide everyday, he or she must be need held others. Talk to people,n should go to a psychiatrist. Thats it

Thinking about suicide everyday may be a sign that you are suicidal. It would be best if you would reach out to a suicide hotline. Please do not feel like you are unworthy or useless because there is a space in this universe that you occupy and that space is a very beautiful space with animals and buildings and mountains and rivers and filled with your imagination. You are worthy and you are loved. You are strong. You have always got up and stood against all odds. I hope you will be able to share what you are going through with someone, even if its on 7 cups. Stay strong

Not particularly. Those thoughts can gradually progress into worse things which could harm you even more. Seeing a doctor or therapist about it sounds scary and unrealistic, but once you're walking into the waiting room you know that you're glad to be getting help. They can ask you a few questions and evaluate how you're feeling, and might even prescribe medication if they feel that they should. If you can find the cause of the thoughts it could help you, improving your lifestyle like getting more sleep or doing more exercise can release endorphins and brighten your mood.

It is clearly not normal to think about suicide everyday. Probably a lot of people go through a moment of crisis and think about suicide maybe once or twice in their lfetime. Humans are naturally animals with a desire to live, not die. If you are thinking about suicide everyday you are most definetley having an emotiomally difficult time.. please though seek professional help. Trust me, I know what it feels like. You are worth living. Alright maybe life seems worthless and maybe you feel worthless. But you know what, you probably have somebody that cares for you and you might not be seeing it. I do not know you or the story in your life but let me just tell you that life is so much more than you are experimencing right now. Make up your own life.
