This has been going on for to long for it to be considered irrational. I remember the turn of the century and I remember 10 year after. I remember the other time I attempted it. And even then there was hope of change.

What's the point in suicide exactly? I was I was lucky with love myself but like I ain't been so lucky.. not 100% anyways but on the brightside, at least you have us :D

If it is related to any love issues by any chance? Because i've been at that road so many times :(

I have felt suicidal before. Actually I do quite often. Lucky for my life, I own a dog. And that means responsibility. I took an oath when I took over that dog. An important one. As long as that dog lives, I am responsible for him and his happyness.
I think guys, people in general, but perhaps guys more than anyone else, need a responsibility in life that goes beyond just themselves. They need to be responsible for something more than just their own life. Otherwise they / we are frustrated. My dog probably saved my life, perhaps even more than once.

I agree, word for word, but am substituting my cat. Do you have a pet, Aspie_Chav? I swear, she has saved my life at least 4 times in the past 2 years!

Yeah that's mostly what's kept me from offing myself is having pet cats thus the eccentric lonely cat lady.

I guess most of us need something in our life if isn't "love" per se.

Aspie Chav,

Several people mentioned having responsibilities such as animals to help guide them with the woes of life. Aspies are known for their love of animals and I can assure you that they give me lots of joy since they don't play mind games, have an agenda, befriend you only for their benefit, etc. I also find that my students lift me up even when they aren't there. Is there something that you are wholly responsible for? If not, find something.

Persevere my friend. Like someone mentioned earlier, you also have us here at WrongPlanet.

Suicide you have to be ery careful with.

What has stopped me in the past is what will happen if it goes wrong, you could really damage yourself.

Yes, I actually agree with what hale_bopp said.

Not only you would damage yourself but others around you too and for your family to go through a loss would surely be very upsetting for them and I would possibly imagine that they care about you deep inside...

There are alot of girls out there, especially in croydon.... :D

Just hang in there... just keep strong :)

Hang in there Chav, those feelings pass and there's so much you would miss out on. Breathe through the difficult, painful feelings and remember they pass, probably by tomorrow. Have something nice to drink and just hang in there for now. Have something really nice to eat. Try to change the mood if you can. Tomorrow is a new day with many beautiful surprises. You wouldn't want to miss them.

Please don't hurt yourself. Call your doctor, or your therapist (if you don't have one, call your local suicide hotline and get a referral). I want go all Pollyanna on you and tell you the world will suddenly be filled with sunshine and roses - but you can feel better than you do right now. Now close your laptop and make the call.

As tempted as I've been to do it lately, I just can't. My friends and family wouldn't be happy. Think of your loved ones, and hopefully things will get better.

There's always hope Aspie_Chav. Improbable as it may sound, all our afflictions are our own creation, tricks our mind plays with us. Get some help from a professional, talk to someone who can analyse your situation from the outside. I've been there many times and I know how hard it is to hold on to something meaningful, something that can keep us going. But there's always something that could stop you for a moment, and during that moment you can try and get your thoughts together. That's what I've always done. I think about my family, friends and all the people that would be extremely sad with my doing that and also all the people I would not be able to help any more or would not get a chance to help. Anyway, just pause for a moment, maybe get some help and try to understand what is really going on in your mind. Meditation could help you with that.
