I guess not. :(

1st off suicide will not help any situation. you need to face your problems, not run away! i know that is hard to do, ive been suicidal and ive managed to drag my self out of the ground!! get your self out of the house, go out with your friends go for a walk,. let me tell you your family will be devastated upon hearing your death so yes youve got rid of your own problems but you put 3000 more on your family, they will want answers they will never have! and will forever blame themselves!! go talk to some one for help (not your ex) see a doctor or your family get out your anger and hurt that way! it is much more healthier in time you will move on from your ex as will she and you WILL find some one much better and somebody who is right for you in every way, but not untill you are better. depression is an illness which takes a few years to cure but CAN be cured you just need to accept help! take care and remember that you are very loved!!

You really need to speak to a professional about this, have you spoken to your doctor or anyone like that? What about speaking to a member of your family and telling them how you feel? We here on AB can offer you support of course, but if you really feel this way, you need to seek help. Yes you will feel bad because of the breakup, but you will eventually get over it although it may not feel like it to you at the moment. Breakups are hard, theres no getting away from it, but life goes on and for you to feel suicidal is obviously a big problem. Please speak to a professional about this, and let us know how you get on.

Sweetheart, the fact that you have written to us, tells me that you don't want to die. You want to live. What you are going through is grief, deep and painful grief. People go through it with any relational crisis, and it is natural. Be kind to yourself. You are allowed to feel upset and hurt. Even the negative feelings are natural. If you look round the net, you will find that there are stages of grief including Denial (this isn't happening to me!) Anger (why is this happening to me?) Bargaining (I promise I'll be a better person if...) Depression (I don't care anymore) Acceptance (I'm ready for whatever comes) People go round and round in these many times till they get to acceptance, and some people have such trouble getting there that they need someone to talk it out with. That is what I advise you to do. Find a skilled counsellor, or a minister/priest/pastor/ rabbi and pour it out. Honey, we all understand how painful it is for you and we are there with you all the way. Keep in touch with us and let us know how things are going. If you want to email me, get my addy from my website (on my profile page. I am Sue). I am a pastor's wife and have good shoulders to lean on. I can even ask my hubby to come in and talk to you, if you'd like a man's point of view. ALl the best. :-)

Dude why in the world would you want to make your ex live out the rest of her life thinking it was her fault you knocked yourself off? Leave it a while, get over her and then decide whether you want to die or not. But rememeber, that if you do knock yourself off, at any stage in your life, the people close to you will blame themselves forever. It's not a selfish thing to do, to kill yourself, but it sure is cowardly.

thank-you kindly for all of your responses. i've been like this before i even met her. i was convinced she was an angel from heaven who would help me get through it all. i knew that in my heart. :) she couldn't take it anymore, and i understand her decision to break up with me. i understand it's impossible to have a relationship with a depressed person. i know i'm not suppose to speak like this, but i feel it's the only way. i don't see things getting better. i love you ab and thanks again. :)

You need to get help from a mental health professional.Good luck.

I am someone who tried to commit suicide while I was a teenager due to abuse from an extreemely mentally ill mother. I had an older sister who committed suicide. I beg you to get some professional help from a counselor or call a suicide hotline. Things may seem untenable at this time but I promise you things will get better. This is the time to take a leap of faith. Life is worth living even though you don't feel that you want to remain on this earth. I am so glad that I was not sucessful in my attempt, there is so much to live for. One one person is worth that kind of sacrifice. Things did get better for me and it was worth all the work to address the issues I had. With Love Katie

aah ya i know how it can be. i hate it when ur heart and soul just feel like a heavy rock or burden and u look outside at the lil kids playing..life goes on. and u envy all joy around u. thats the point...life goes on. u have to get yourself out there. u have a purpose..more than relationships dont worry. u r in God's hands. he never puts us in challenges we canot overcome. its tough i know. let yourself heal for a while.God bless, take care

I'd prob avoid killing yourself. The real issue here is your depression and how you value others above yourself, even above your own life. Your life is all you have. At the end of the day what others think of you, what others don't think of you...doesn't really matter because you're alive. Where there is life, there is hope. You need to talk to a counselor, a doctor, and find a new life for yourself. Not death for yourself. We're all gonna die someday, why rush it?

Im in the same thoughts, my wife left me 10 days ago and left a note telling me she loves me more than anything and she was sorry to leave. I cant see light at the end of the tunnel, and im struggling and im not sure what im looking for. But i think a quick end would be good. I have been to the counceller and the doctors, crisis teams etc and tied a noose around my neck and took an overdose last friday. But people kept phoning my house as i flushed my phone down the toilet. Im 30 with a nice house and good job, but it seems irrelevent to me now

there was a few times i thought i should just kill myself, but ya know, i turned to the power of electronics, computers, and making music. even just listening to music helps my soul. if you concentrate on something that you love to do, you will realize and say "hey, ya know, there is a lot of people out there that can really use my help with something." even if it is helping an old lady with her groceries, you WILL feel good about doing it and want to do it more. you can make a difference in your community and even get recognized for it. they could even make you a role model for people who are even more disadvantaged than yourself. it takes one person to make a difference in the lives of so many people. if you take yourself out of the picture, who would be the one protecting that little old lady if someone tried to mug her? what would those people and kids do if they dont have a good persons advice to follow? just sit and think about your actions because i dont think you would want to give your parents the burden of a $6000+ funeral?? my dad is a funeral director and i do know the prices and they are not cheap either!! remember though, if you do something for someone else, you will feel better for doing it. the more people you help, the better you will feel all the time.

I don't know any magic words or even if you are still around to read mine. But all I can say is that depression is a curable disease. It would be a shame to let one person have so much control over the only life you will ever have. To a certain degree I believe we all have power over our emotions. There is so much more in life out there to enjoy before I go. I know I wouldn't want to cut it short on purpose. Other than finding a good doctor to help find out what is your problem (maybe a chemical imbalance), why not set goals for yourself. Start saving money to go on trips. If you don't want to go along than take a friend or fun family member. Do things that you wouldn't normally do with a girl friend. Don't think of it as you lost a girlfriend but rather now you have ample opportunity to meet new interesting people like you do on AB. God Bless and take care.
