Is it normal to think about suicide everyday?

I don't know about "normal", but is definitely not a healthy behavior and no one should be having these thoughts. But, if you are having these thoughts, you are probably dealing with some kind of depression too, in that case it would be less "rare" to be thinking about suicide, because depression can be very drowning and lonely. But it is till very unhealthy, so if you are having these thoughts and you are actually listening to them, PLEASE, reach to someone as soon as possible. There is always some kind heart willing to listen and help you, even here in this platform, we are available, I am available for you❤.

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.

To be honest, it depends on how you’re thinking about it. There are ways where it’s not a problem, for example, a loved one tried to or succeeded in committing suicide, and you feel bad, or miss them. But if it’s more, what would happen if I did, or most importantly, making “fictional” plans. Imaging how exactly you’d do it, when, what you would write. That’s not normal. I know from personal experience. I thought it was completely normal until a close friend of mine told me it wasn’t, she showed me articles and studies about suicidal thoughts affecting you’re life. Please reach out for help, parents, friends, so, teacher, counselor.

Thinking about suicide every day is not something that people typically do. Are you safe right now? Have you started to form a plan or idealize how you might accomplish it? Are you feeling hopeless, as if suicide is the only way to solve your problems? These are all signs that you need to get some help right away. Since you're thinking about suicide so often, I recommend you get an appointment to talk to a trained therapist who can help you manage these thoughts. It can be difficult to talk about them, but getting them out of your head and having a professional help you understand why you're feeling that way can help lead you back to a healthy mindset. Stay safe and stay alive friend.

No. In short, just no. The idea of suicide creeping into your thoughts regularly can be confusing and scary - you find yourself wondering if this is really something you want, as you are thinking about it so often. The thoughts going through your mind so regularly may begin to feel normal and you may learn how to ignore or fight against them, but deep down you know they shouldn't really be there. They've made themselves at home and you don't know if you're fighting them or welcoming them - but although there is no true "normal", know that you are not supposed to be living a life where thoughts of death are replacing thoughts of life. Maybe suicide is something you will always think about, but it doesn't have to be something that controls you. Being aware of the thoughts, accepting them as not normal and learning how to cope with them is a huge step towards feeling more control. You will not always want this, you will feel differently at some point, and you will find the things in your life that are worth fighting the thoughts for.

No, it's not. If you're thinking about suicide that much, I really suggest you talk to someone of seek help. I know how painful it can be. You don't have to deal with this alone. Now, I also don't like to use "normal", because that could mean many things. For some of us, thoughts of suicide are our normal, as in they are what we're used to even though they are very unhealthy thoughts stemming from mental illness. It's normal in the sense that it's relatively common, but also not because the majority don't experience suicidal thoughts. What thinking about suicide every day is, is not healthy. It may not be "normal" but it doesn't make you abnormal.

Many people have those thoughts. However, I think it is important to not let those thoughts reach a dangerous point. Depression plays a huge part in suicidal thoughts. I think it is SUPER important to reach out to someone if the thoughts get severe, to the point where you are wanting to actively act on them. Some people find talking to the suicide prevention lifeline helpful as well. (1-800-273-8255) Maybe just being able to let some things off your chest, and being able to vent about the stuff that's going on in your life can help to relase some stress, and possibly minimize how often you think about it. It actually works for a lot of people :)

I don't think so. Obviously, if you're in a profession or place where outreach or prevention is part of your career or your day to day routine, that's different. But it has to be recovery-based. There is a big shift in teens and young adults that I've noticed in the past few years: as we get more comfortable discussing suicide and mental health, we naturally turn to humor in an attempt to cope. This is natural, but taking it too far not only normalizes, but can even romanticize depression or thoughts of suicide and make us complicit rather than recovery minded. It's important to remember that mental illness does not define us. It's important to communicate openly and honestly, but if we let ourselves fall into cycles where we're stuck on talk of depression or suicide ideation, we are giving these thoughts time, space, and agency. Try to replace these conversations or thoughts with positivity - talk not about suicide, but of the reasons you have to live.

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. :)

For some people it can be normal, but I mean normal in the sense that it is part of their life. You aren't strange or broken for thinking that way, but I understand that it is something that can be quite debilitating. I would recommend that you reached out and spoke to a professional about what you're going through and hopefully you can find strategies in order to cope with these thoughts. There are ways you can get through this and learn how to deal with these thoughts. I hope that anyone going through this is doing okay and will get the help they need.
