The only reason why

The only reason why

The only reason why I haven’t tried committing suicide is because everyone says you’ll go to hell

and I don’t want to go to hell

    That’s why I didn’t do it a long time ago. I guess it’s a good thing that I’m christian.

    i feel the exact same way
    i so want to do it but i also dont want to go to hell
    so sometimes i just hope that maybe God will kill me for me.

    but i would have missed out on so much
    i promise, everything will be okay.

    i’m afraid of what will happen once i die.
    that’s the only reason i haven’t killed myself yet.

    yes it is! hell is the place where the devil lives and where there is nothing but fire and deep dark pits. read the dang bible

    I feel that way to and then a little while later I realize I don’t want to commit suicide because life is precious and good. so just wait a while and you won’t want to do it anymore. It’s probably just a mood swing :)

    Abbie- You suck. I’m glad you’re certain that hell isn’t real because silly me thought we didn’t have the capacity to know things like that.
    Even if you believe whole heartedly that hell doesn’t exist, you’re giving this kid the go ahead on commiting suicide. Nice call.

    To the rest of you- Don’t kill yourself. We’re all trying to figure things out and I can honestly tell you that things start to unfold over time. I don’t know you or your situation. I just really want you to be happy. This is probably the most unconvincing argument you’ve heard. I just thought I would let you know.

    Post card kid- I just wanted you to know that your art is spectacular.

    thinking about suicide is more common then you’d think..
    but it should never be the answer..
    taking your own life..is depriving someone of happiness..
    you are someone’s future happiness..
    someone’s happiness right now..
    someone’s son or daughter, brother or sister, cousin, neighbor..
    …So when you think, I’m tired–I’ve had enough, this has got to end.
    think about what exactly you’d be ending..
    your suffering might be over…
    but everyone else?

    Suicide doesn’t just kill YOU–
    It kills a little part of every single person who has ever cared about you.
    stop thinking about it.
    things WILL get better.
    but you can’t spend your life mulling over all the bad things that have ever happened..
    embrace the beauty in the world..

    LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL.
    but thoughts like these won’t ever let you see it..
    love yourself…you have to.
    don’t ask how…just imagine you, without yourself..
    you can’t can you?
    being dead means no more thinking.
    that thing you are doing right now in your head…
    those comments..
    can you imagine never hearing them again?
    you can’t.
    because if you could..you’d be dead.

    trust me, you’ll find your place in this world…
    give yourself that chance..
    please…
    all of you, give yourselves the chance to really, truly, LIVE.

    just a permanent solution, to a temporary problem.

    Hell isn’t a real place. God doesn’t exist. If that’s your only reason not to commit suicide, you need to change your life. And believe me, I know how hard that is. But you can do it. Just keep on trying….

    Ironic, I didn’t STOP being suicidal until I became an atheist. I read the bible cover to cover. It reminded me of tribal stories, and ancient Egyptian stuff. After that I decided it’s all bullshit. Kinda funny, science didn’t convince me to be an atheist, reading the actual books did, (came to same conclusion with Eastern religions and Pagan ones too) the stories in there really just are so completely ludicrous. It’s obviously made up, which means there’s probably no afterlife, and when we die, that’s it, we’re dead. So I figured since life is finite, and this is it, then what’s the rush? I’ll be dead in like 60-70 odd years? That’s not THAT long, and then I’ll cease to exist. So I’ll stay alive, just to experience being human, and all that comes with it, good and bad. This is the philosophy that keeps me going, and at peace, even when everything sucks. :)

    I was suicidal back when I was fifteen.

    No one knew until my aunt saw the scars on my wrist the night I ran away from home…

    And when my father told my mother about it, she asked why I didn’t just go ahead and finish it, then handed me a knife…

    I never had any help other than that which I gave myself. And to be honest, I’m glad I didn’t do it. Life still sucks sometimes, but it’s gotten infinitely better since I’ve pulled myself out of that rut.

    The only hell that exists is that which we make for ourselves. You are in your own personal hell right now. It’s up to you to find whatever strength you have within and pull yourself out. It gets better, hun. I swear this to you… It’s just whether or not you have the courage to face life and all it’s Beauty that it has within it that’s the question.

    Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. It takes a desperate person to go through with suicide. It takes a Determined person to go through with Life.

    The only option I can see if something were to happen to the one I love is suicide.

    I don’t want to go to hell, but how could even the God I know ask me to live in a much worse kind of hell…

    you don’t “try” to commit suicide, you selfish bitch.
    there’s no hell. your just putting everyone that loves you in a hell-like place on earth.

    selfish bitch huh? look in the mirror, replace selfish with cruel. what makes you think you have the right?

    i feel the same way.
    half of me believes that i will because in 2nd grade a friend played a game with me and afterwards, she told me that if i dont get a quinceanera or become a nun, ill belong to the devil.

    the other half doesnt and is waiting for me to get it done.

    maybe God will let me some day.

  22. atlas #

    Yeah, the only reason I haven’t killed myself is because I know this is the only chance I’ll ever get at life.

  23. cm #

    that was the reason I didn’t do it a while back. Then I said “f*** it, I’m doing it anyways.” I tried 4 times. I failed 4 times. God was really lookin’ out for me because now I’m old enough to see that it was absolutely not worth it.

    I get so sick of people giving the generic “It’s going to be okay.” Yeah, well sometimes it’s not going to be okay, sometimes you ARE better off dead.

    This will really help.
    If you plan on committing suicide once and for all, try to think about it, then rationalize it through. You can say to yourself “God can’t be that cruel to put me in Hell for eternity. And why would He, He created me and gave me the conditions that I face right now. While I believed in God and followed Him at times, others that didn’t seemed to have it better than me. So why did God do that to me? I want to meet Him and ask Him why He tortured me? Why He didn’t listen to my cries, loneliness…etc..”
    After you have rationalized it through, you then need to start thinking that you will go on a trip. Just like the day you were born and you can’t remember, this trip will be quick. A Shot in the temple and its over. You might actually enter a new life. Who knows?
    Up to the day when you plan to do it, you need to think “I am gonna go” Don’t let others know, because they will change your mind and/or you will make them depressed. Buy your gun, ammunition and keep them in safe place. On your good days, with nice weather and a Starbucks in your hand, think I will go and its not gonna be bad. Make the next life like an exciting adventure. So think about the plan even on your good days. In other words, intentionally depress yourself so you keep the plan going. If, however, on good days, you say ” oh life is good and beautiful” then you will go back to step one another day and go through the whole thing again and will never be determined.

    Now, I wish you don’t commit suicide. I really do. Now, if you want to not think about suicide at this point in your life, you need to set for yourself short term goals. For example, I will commit suicide after I take my SATs and get a really high score. Or I will commit suicide the summer after I go to Prom. This way you defer suicide until you achieve a short term goal then by the time you reach your goal, somthing might present itself that will make you think positively like a new friendship, new boyfreind or girlfriend, new job. At some point, you will get out of the suicide mode because something is destracting you enough to keep you from thinking about it.

    That’s why I don’t kill people…. just because I’m afraid there might be a Hell…. and I’d go there.

    Talk to a therapist, if you cannot afford it talk to a priest or a mental health group.
    Don’t let yourself suffer, you will want that suffering time back later.
    I wish you well for the rest of your life.

  39. CL #

    He won’t.
    I wish you didn’t suffer. But I understand suffering.
    It will pass, but if it does not, remember that you can’t suffer all the time. Talk to a priest or therapist if you need to.
    I wish you well for the rest of your life.

    Stop it before someone listens to you.

    I think any advice the includes “Buy your gun” is pretty fucking stupid.
    Talk to a therapist if you are considering buying a gun to kill yourself.

    This is a ridiculous comment.

    I’m sorry.
    There are only a few things I can say.
    I wanted to commit suicide once too,
    but something just switched on inside me and I moved on somehow.
    God will only give you as much as you can handle, never more.
    And He will always be there with you as long as you ask for Him.
    Stay strong.

    I agree. When I was in high school my Junior year is when I stopped wanting to die. I was convinced that my neices and nephews needed me, not to mention others who needed me also. I needed to set a good example. I also knew that as soon as I was out of that shithole I would become who I wanted to be. Only you can make the decision to be happy! Mind over matter. I also believe that suicide leads to going to hell also..Which is why going to hell is my biggest fear of all!!

    It is a sin to commit suicide, but you will not go to hell for it.
    that does not mean that you should though.
    God will never give you more than you can handle, and although it feels like he does, he doesnt.
    i dont know if you have a relationship with God, but thats what saved me from killing myself. and what prevented me from doing it over the years is the fear of going to hell. Ive been a christ follower for a little over a year now.

    Wait awhile? Tell that to someone who’s living in Hell already. An almost dead-abusive father that’s hurt you all of your life in every way, a crazy mom that you can’t have one conversation with without it turning into a fight, a step dad that thinks he’s your real dad, friends that just make you want to hurt someone, etc.
    I think death would be better than this life everyday.

    I’ve tried. Over and over. Never working. Never getting caught trying. Now, I cut. I don’t try at suicide anymore. I know cutting isn’t much better, but it’s better than a suicide attempt. The thing that stopped me was the fear of going to Hell too. I used to be a Christian, but then I got lost. I now am trying to find my faith again…but having little luck and little hope. If things don’t get better I might turn suicidal again.

    Any help…or advice?
