Is it normal to think about suicide everyday?

No it is not. However once you recognize you are and go seek help a person can overcome those thoughts.

Of course not. Human beings are programmed to love life. By nature we have the desire to live and have a sense of self-preservation. If that sense is gone for any reason, then we may be tempted to fulfill the desire to die.

No, it isn't. In case you do go through the stress of being suicidal every day, get help. There is no harm is talking it out with some. I've gone through thoughts of escaping quite often but then I've never thought of giving up on life, no matter how scared I am of it and no matter how daunting it gets. Talk it out. There maybe a better outcome in that, than suicide.

It depends. If you’re getting help, no. If you’re all alone, yes. If you’re receiving medical attention you shouldn’t be having these thoughts everyday anymore, it means your treatment isn’t working. If you aren’t seeking for help, yes. It may get worse, that’s why you always need to reach out for help before it’s too late.

While sometimes people might think of things like this in passing, if you're thinking about it every day, it might be time to seek the help of a trusted adult. Sometimes still, those who think of it daily are still in passing, without any intention of carrying through (ideations). If you're feeling down most of the time, or start to think on this topic more seriously, it might be time to reach out.

It is not normal, and you should call a suicide hotline. People on 7 cups are not trained to handle suicidal talks. Please call 1-800-273 TALK (8255) or go here: http://www.suicidepreventionlifeline.org/GetHelp/LifelineChat.aspx

Normalizing suicidal thoughts is a dangerous thing to do, and I would argue it is not normal to think of suicide everyday. If you are having recurring suicidal thoughts, it is best to seek professional help. When professional help is unvailable, I recommend seeking a counselor (through crisis chat, crisis hotline, etc).

I don't think it's normal, but it happens. Depression sucks. It's a word that gets thrown around WAY too easily. Lots of mentally healthy people will claim to be depressed, when really they're just experiencing what is normal human emotions, and they're back to 'normal' fairly quickly.Even if you think you'll never act on your thoughts, this is not something to take lightly. You really, really need to seek a therapist and discuss these thoughts and how to deal with them. So, no, it is not normal, and it is very dangerous. Find someone ASAP to get help. Look for a good therapist for sure, and find a psychiatrist that will work with you on medication that can help.

I wouldn't say it's 'normal'. Not everyone thinks about suicide every day but people who experience depression or any kind of other mental health issues can experience suicidal thoughts. These thoughts can come and go. We're not making any plans and they come and go. However, if you feel like you're putting a plan together: IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT TO REACH OUT! My point is: it's 'normal' to think about suicide every day as long as they come and go. However, I strongly recommend searching professional help!

There was a period in my life where I was thinking about suicide almost every day, making very difficult to come up with any will to do something, constantly haunted by an overwhelming sense of decay and transience: "Why should I do that particular thing or why should act towards that particular goal if in a short time I won't exist anymore?" was the question I struggled to find an answer to. This thought, however, wasn't originated by a particular sad situation or depression, but rather by a nihilistic attitude, due to which I couldn't find meaning in anything (I thought it was like mocking myself to pretend things could have the "meaning" we decide to shed on them, as many existentialists suggest to do). By the time this question became less and less haunting, but I think has plaid an important role to make me understand myself better and point out what I think is really important in my life, removing all those things that do not make any sense to me.
