How To Handle Wanting To Kill Yourself?
If you are a minor, tell a trusted adult. While we have all heard this before, it is really the best way to get help. There are medications and therapists devoting there lives to helping people see through the haze of depression. Seek help, things will get better.
If you are an adult, schedule an appointment with a therapist and they will guide you through this tough time. If you have a plan on how you will commit suicide, voluntarily admit yourself to a behavioral health center, it literally can save your life.
A little more...Most people who want to kill themselves, when you ask them about it, express a sense of disconnection -- a removal from what they seem to perceive as normal or good. This may of course be mixed with other concerns: anger, fear, shame... These however can be harder to fix.I think one way to handle wanting to kill yourself is to reach out and get a dialogue started with someone about this. A therapist perhaps, but even a friend or a total stranger is better than keeping silent.
And if you're considering killing yourself, you have pretty much nothing to lose in starting such a conversation, do you? :}
What happens with the people who were thinking of committing suicide in a hospital?
Nothing can happen, if they are thinking about it. If they tell someone in the hospital where they are, then the hospital staff will have a duty of care to look after you and ensure you do not act on your thoughts. So if you do feel like this it is ALWAYS best to tell someone else what you are thinking, ensuring of course it's an adult you tell. Nothing is EVER that bad in this life that cannot be sorted or worth taking your own life for, after all there is only one of you and you are special, you already have won the race to life, so don't throw that away, life is special and precious to us all.
How can you stop having thoughts of suicide while you are at school?
Some backround information: I am a sixth grader. My mom knows I feel like this, and I am taking a half dose of SRRI antidepressants. I also have high functioning autism. When at home I feel fine, but at school I get easily depressed by simple things such as, "Do your work," and I start thinking people don't care about me. Just about an hour ago, I was so upset that I hit my head on the brick wall and nearly cut my fingers with scissors. Sometimes I also feel like a majority compared to the other kids, and they should treat me with much more respect than the average person. I know it's an awful thing to think, but I can't help it. There are also times my teacher and principal say "Go do your work" and it makes me think they don't care. Infact, I STILL feel like they dont. PLEASE HELP!
