What should I do if I am feeling suicidal, but don't want to tell anyone?

If you are feeling suicidal, you should contact a mental health professional. If you want to remain anonymous, contact the USA’s National Suicide Prevention Hotline at 1(800)273-8255 for qualified people to help you and give advice.

Focus What is making me happy in life and force myself to think positive daily. Avoid people that harass me, and get closeer to the one who actually care about me.

If you dont wish to share that info with friends or loved ones, you can always come on 7 cups or call a suicide hotline and talk with an anonymous person about how your feeling!

Maybe talk to your doctor. Writing in a journal helps me a lot. I write when I'm happy, sad, angry and feeling suicidal too. It helps to write letters and when you're done, crumple them up and throw them away or burn them.

You should talk to a professional. This can be anonymous. Although working through your thoughts and emotions in other areas can help, getting support is very effective.

Find someone online. Most online chats are confidential and offer great support. Try to think of happy things and things that make you feel better. Music is great therapy and you can find the words to express what you feel. Most importantly though, try to find someone who you can talk to in real life who will be supportive. It may be hard at first but you will feel so much better when you finally get it all out there. Admitting to yourself that you have these feelings is key to getting help. Don't try to get through it alone.

Hey my answer to this question is if you feel this way but don't want to tell anyone, from experience the best thing I do when feeling this way is reflect on all those who truly care about you, talk it through with yourself and focus your mind on the good things in life that you have. Think about what kind of life you wish to have and how to achieve it because every life is worth being here. I talk to myself in the mirror, cry, let it out, do a video diary when you feel down on why you feel this way, what's made you become suicidal or to feel so low. When you feel good and are in a good mood it's a good way to look back on how you have felt and when you feel positive you could think of ways to help yourself when you feel low again after watching yourself back. Writing also helps when you feel down until you feel better again. If I find this doesn't help then I get out the house, go and see friends or family or a therapist, you don't have to talk about how you feel but just keep in mind how they'd feel if you wasn't here. Tell yourself life is worth living and keep as calm and as in control of your mind as you possibly can. Suicide is never the answer. Try and be as strong as you can because that inner strength to fight is in us all! Your life is just as important as anyone else's and you are always loved. Never forget it, it's just about finding what ways of coping when in this mood works for you. Write songs, poems, watch movies, listen to music that might bring your mood back up again. Anything to help feel better again but one piece of advice I have is to not ignore how you feel or why and what has made you feel this way. It's better to deal with it and face it then shut it all away in your mind as it builds up and you don't want to be tipped over the edge again. There are always people on here who won't judge you and can also help you through it, you are talking to others who are here to support you. Be strong and keep your chin up, life will get better and it won't always be this way.
