If it's the fear of judgement, I believe this website is good because you're just someone online. Even if you do, for some reason, get judged, the next listener you find will most likely be kind enough to deal with it more professionally. In case venting in general really isn't your thing, there are many ways to deal with it and what worked best for me is realizing that there will always be that someone who cares about you, even if you don't see it. You just have to think deep. I find that whenever I'm at the brink of suicide (which happened a few times), at that very last second, I realize that all those people in the background I never notice actually care. That motivation should be good enough to keep you going until you figure something out.

From personal experience I whenever I am feeling that way and I don't want to tell anyone I try to just let all my thoughts run it's course. Also I vent writing in my journal or talking to a friend about a unrelated topic. Also I recommend this rule. Do not make any haste decisions while you are feeling suicidal. These are thoughts that don't need to turn to actions because you can't turn back. If you think you can't control yourself it is safe to tell someone. I rather you be safe than sorry. I know it's difficult but hold on.

Even though telling someone would be really helpful, I get, why it is hard to do so. Texting a crisis hotline would be good if you feel suicidal. There are a lot of resources out there, which don't require you to tell anyone in person. (e.g. 1-800-273-8255 or www.suicide.org)

Getting help for anything is scary, especially if you are having ideas of hurting yourself. Remind yourself that asking for help is a strength. Even coming on here and asking this question is a huge step in the right area. If you don't feel like talking to anyone you know right now, please try calling your suicide hotline or try calling your local emergency services. They may be able to provide you with professionals who are trained in that area of expertist. You can also chat with trained crisis professionals free on imalive.org

It is important to tell people about these feelings, maybe think of all the blessings in your life. Also try to do things for others like compliment people, do volunteer work! Anything so you're not stuck thinking about yourself!

it is highly recommended to contact to suicide hotline or find a therapist, the conversation is gonna stay between you two if the therapist is professional. because that is a big problem specially when people around you are oblivious to your situation, please try to do something about it, do not give up on yourself so easily. Every kind of pain, every problem has a solution even if you cannot see it right now.
