I think about suicide every day, and I have for a long time. I don't enjoy being alive at all, I've been to therapists and mental hospitals, but those only made me feel worse. Antidepressants were more like retardation pills than anything, and they gave me awful side effects, and I harmed myself way more on those than I do now. I think about suicide everyday... for hours, but each time I think about suicide, I also think about how it would affect people in my life, and even though they might treat me like I'm worthless, I couldn't bring that pain upon anyone else. Those are the thoughts that ultimately keep me alive everyday. I don't feel happiness anymore, but I still make other people happy. That's why I live, to make the lives of other people more enjoyable and livable than mine ever can be.

I think about suicide all the time and have been this way for years. For some reason tonight I suddenly realized that cutting my wrists wouldn't be near as hard or painful as the daily struggle I go through. There is no help for some of us and not near enough people out there willing to help.

No, it's not. I think about suicide all the time and I know it's not good - and I know that getting help isn't as easy as it sounds. I was scared that people wouldn't believe me, or they'd just tell me to stop being stupid. stop being such an attention seeker and to 'pull my socks up', but they're wrong. Like everyone else, I'd beg you to get some kind of medical help. Even if you feel you can't, there are confidential helplines out there.

Normal, yes. Healthy, no. If you're thinking about suicide every day, you're seriously depressed. Which is normal in the same way that diabetes is normal--lots of people are going through it and it doesn't usually kill you right away, but it's a serious, life-threatening condition and you should get help for it.

So I've been thinking about suicide alot the past year I always thought of it but I have the means to do it now, i. Have a firearm I can easily do it, but im scared to do so because I still remember the times I'm happy and I kerp thinking this is a phase but every day it gets harder and harder to wake up and want to live im talking about this only because i think there might be someone out there who really cares and who can really give me some advice before I do something I can never regret or take bake and end my life.

I think it's close to normal but not normal. It's normal to people who have a very bad wound in their heart

It's not normal; PLEASE go to therapy because I used to feel the exact same way and therapy's what allowed me to feel happy again. I would cry for hours every day and feel that life is absolutely hopeless and worthless, and I thought of killing myself every single second. But believe it or not, after some good months of therapy I started to feel normal and calm and happy again. Trust me, it works. If it doesn't work one time, try another time.:) YOU WILL FEEL HAPPY AGAIN!!

Depression is curable. Talk to your threrapist or friends, or family. At this point in your life you need to all the support that you needed, because you have the tendency of isolating yourself, you'll feel lonely and alone. You will get better, everyday might be a hard battle for you but keep on fighting.

I would answer back is it normal to have a ton of brick fall on you everyday? NO it is not normal to have those bricks fall no you. Yet when you are depressed thoughts of suicide can feel like a ton bricks weighing you down. If feel suicidal every day there are many places you can go/call/text ect... to try to get the help you need. That ton of bricks maybe upon you and they maybe can only be removed one by one but you will with help get them all off.

No. Its not normal to think about suicide everyday. The more you think about suicide, the more you have death thoughts. And it would push you to do something really dangerous to yourself. Also, when you think about suicide everyday, it overcomes you and blocks you from thinking about anything else and it prevents you from thinking about other things which can improve upon your life and make you a better person.
