I feel it’s common for people to often think about those “what if’s”, but its important you never let those thoughts become too common to the point where they become active. Some people think about suicide for various reasons. It could be because of something that’s taken place, it could be because of something you feel, or sometimes people don’t know why they think about it. Statistics show when interviewing people who dealt with suicidal thoughts - 1 in 2 people said they didn’t know why they thought that way. Try to talk out those feelings with someone you trust and if there isn’t anyone you can think of, they have several online chats where you can talk anonymously with crisis specialists who can help you keep those thoughts at a minimum. Much love

It sounds like a very painful place to be. I have gone through a period where I though about suicide almost every single day. I felt terrible and ashamed of who I was and felt like I will make the world a brighter place if I just leave already. It was a very painful place to be, because as much as I felt I could not continue on, I still couldn’t bring myself to actually kill myself. And I think somewhere inside, I wanted to live. I wanted to get better. I wanted to be better. As time passed, I realized it isn’t about changing, but about acceptance of who I am. This is the most powerful thing I could do for myself to make myself want to continue living.

It is not normal to think about suicide everyday. I am not judge it as being good or bad but in case you are getting thoughts about suicide, it means that there is something bothering you and you might want to deal with it so that it stops bothering you to an extent that you start to think of suicide. I suggest you seek therapy and talk to a therapist about your thoughts, as they are specifically trained to help you handle such thoughts and manage your emotions in a better way. Seeking help for yourself never goes waste.

It's okay to feel low. It's okay to feel sad but it's not okay to try commit suicide. Many people will come help us ,when we need them. They may be family, friends or even strangers but at the end of the day, it's we ourselves who will help overcome whatever issues we have in our life. Try motivating yourself. No other motivation will be as impactful as motivating oneself. Every night before sleeping, remind yourself that you did it . You survived the day so beautifully, met many amazing people, got to learn so many wonderful things. Smile and start your day.

If you are thinking about suicide everyday, your mind is not on the right spot. I have been there myself. Life felt unenjoyable in places it used to BE enjoyable and these dark thoughts kept arising. If you can empathize with that statement in your current situation, I would heavily advise you to seek help from a professional therapist. When i started doing it, even though I did not exactly want to, it made things get better. Not immediately but over time with each visit they taught me important techniques which I use to this day. And i knew that I was talking to someone who really knows what they are talking about. If therapy is not your cup of tea, or too expensive you can also call a suicide hotline. People there are really kind so do not feel anxious that you might say something wrong.

No. It is not normal. Practitioners agree that it is a sign that something is causing someone a great deal of distress, and that that needs to be examined. There are also a number of mental health illnesses that can prompt this pattern of thinking, and there are many ways that people can learn to combat this. Among them are CBT, mindfulness, and medication. Thinking about suicide on a daily basis makes it nearly impossible to recognize in yourself even the smallest accomplishments. Finally, there is no permanent way to keep this kind of thought to yourself all of the time, especially as time goes by.

Normal no, but is a clear sign that you are struggling. I had a period of time where I thought a lot about suicide, I read about people who had committed suicide and things like that. However, when things start to get better those thoughts start to fade away. Now I know that I was in danger of hurting myself because I used to feel like nobody would care, I felt invisible. I was not. Depression (dysthymia) can make you see everything in dark tones, but that is a lie. Talk to someone, don't isolate yourself, don't believe your inner dialogue when you are in a dark place!

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!

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.
Have a helpful insight? Don’t keep it to yourself.
Sharing helps others and its therapeutic for you.
