Sometimes there's just a chemical imbalance, and not being on the meds makes every little thing seem like a mountain. On top of it, off the meds the rationalization is the meds were the cause of the problems, so they don't seek help to get back on them.

I know one. She broke up with her lesbian girlfriend. Uhmm...she tried to cut her neck with a scissor. I think she just lacks attention when she tried to kill herself.

Ever since then she has never been right. every once in awhile she will go off the deep end and try hurting other peaple around her. She has tried several other times to kill her self. she had a pretty good life, to this very day i dont know why she did what she did.

I know someone that did. He got sued for sexual harrassment by a girl (a minor 16, he was 21 or 22), they worked at the same pizza place (dated, had sex) and he decided to quit dating her and she won $35,000 (I was told anyway) and he hung himself. This is one of the main reasons I tell people to stay away from dating minors, it was consensual, she knew what she was doing, wanted the sex, but then decided to get money and have him labeled as a sexual predator for life (he would have had to register as one). She had dated several other guys there that were the same age and older, slept with them. I always warned those guys not to do that, took that to get them to listen.

My cousin. Only she knows what was going on her mind. She was from a very wealthy family, successful student, talented musician and a very pretty girl. 22 years old, she just snapped and crossed that line. I bet she had really good reason for that, I bet she did. She knew something beyond our understanding. Last time I saw her we were counting shooting stars.

Yes, I've known a couple of people who killed themselves, and quite a few others who made one or more attempts. I don't think the key factor for most of them is "what is going on in their lives", although it probably looks that way to them. I think the key ingredient for most suicides is that they can't find themselves: i.e. they cannot locate any source of satisfaction, joy, and self-appreciation... they're sort of lost in their own minds, if you will, and can't find their way home. There's a lot of irony in that, because in an important sense, one cannot really lose themselves: no matter where you go, there you are. But you can get some pretty wrong ideas about *who* you are, which adds up to the same thing as being lost, if you can't get them undone.

Her husband was divorcing her. She was in a deep depression. She received psycological help but was still crying out for more help. I think she was pushed to the side.

I tried to kill myself and I have known many who have attempted to and a couple who did succeed at killing themselves. I won't bore you with all the details.

She had come out of the closet and her sister and mother made it clear that was not acceptable or lovable. This was compounded by an untreated chemical imbalance that kept her from seeing the situation clearly. Her 6 year old son found her.

Yes, my mother. She has Borderline Personality Disorder, due to severe abuse during her childhood. As a result, she tried several times during my childhood and adolescence to kill herself. Because I was the parentified child, she would often confide all of the gory details of when, where and how she was going to do it. Then she would tell me that if I told anyone, she would "fake sane" and do it anyway, putting me in a position a child should never be in.

Two of my friends killed themselves.They each were going through a divorce.That was the only thing we knew about.They did have alot of the same personality traits though.

I tried to kill myself. I had acute depression, a string of really nasty events happened in my life which just made things worse. I didn't know how to deal with them. I thought that life was the most painful thing and had no will to go on. I am SO happy and so grateful that I was found and taken the hospital fairly quickly. It would have been a complete waste if I had died. Not only was it an incredibly selfish thing to do to my family - but things got better - a lot better. My life is good now and I am happy. It doesn't hurt anymore. I still feel guilty that I was so willing to cause my family that pain though.

A close friend I knew since high school. He had always had mental problems and although a superstar in High School, things had gone downhill since then. A sad sight going past his grave. He died last summer.

My cousin abroad. His mum died when he was young and his dad is an arsehole! He tried to hang himself. He survived but has changed - something to do with his brain and the blood supply. The family tried to cover it up by saying he fell off the roof! His dad is *******!
