I don’t really know you, but the sad part is, I’d probably check your profile, try to get an idea of the kind of person you were. Ponder for a moment, consider how sad it is, shake my head, and then move on and try a little harder the next time someone says they can’t take it anymore.

I would be haunted by the thought of it for quite some time.
I would wonder if it was true.
Then I would incorporate it into my life, see how it affected other people, and most likely never forget you.

Hey nine the kiwi,
you a kiwi?? anyways i’d probably feel guilty at the fact that some way or another i could have put my 5cents in, maybe it would help, maybe not, but I think that if you were a kiwi, and trying so not to be bias but I would feel a loss, because one way or another we kiwis are all conected. I don’t know??
Much love to you and your family…

I would go “Wow”. And then be on with my day.

i would be mad at myself for not being able to help

If i found out you was dead even tho i dont know you i would feel sad for your family and friends.

I would feel bad thoughout my day and probably be an emotional wreck considering how that happening would push me over the edge..lol
=/

This and weep, and feel ultimate guilt that I couldn’t save you.

me dos!

you know if i found out you killed yourself i would just ask myself “why” what was the reason? As you can see no one knows anybody here on help .com, personally i would just say to myself ,what a shame and go on with my little life.If i would have known you ,well i hate going to cemetries and all i would do is send some flowers to your next of kin if you had any.i believe in quality of life not quantity,
should my life become unberable well there is always this little tablet,but that is not the question……

I would doubt that it really happened. but if I knew it to be true, I would feel guilty for not responding to some of the posts you invited me to.

Honestly: I really don’t know you so I would probably just look at your profile to see If I could learn who you where. Then it would make me think and wonder what kind of life you lived and what made you do what to did.

i’d probably first be sad. then i’d think about why for a while.

of course nobody knows what they would actually do unless it happens.

Cry and weep and consider doing to the same.

well if you want me to be honest i wouldn’t do anything i’d probably think oh well when theirs one loss theirs one more being born and then go back to watching tv

Yeah, I’m going to have to take the same stance as Anthrax on this one. I have no idea who you are at all, so news of your death really wouldn’t have too much of an effect on me at all.

Id prolly wonder why in the world didnt you post something about the problem you were haveing so we could help!

I can’t even answer that, the thought of anyone committing suicide is hard for me because my Dad killed himself, it really is an offensive question for me and I know that you didn’t mean it to be, but still it is.

What is the point to the question? What are you really asking here? You don’t plan on killing yourself and you shouldn’t plan on it. So why ask in the first place? Seems quite redundant, especially since most of the people on here don’t know you.
Honestly? I’d wonder how on earth and why on earth someone would post a death on here. This is a help site. What if someone was about to commit suicide on here and needed consolation, all it would be for them is a step in the wrong direction.

what a tough question.. first off, i would like to say that here at help is like having a whole other family for me.. as my real family sucks… so i get really attached to everyone here… no matter what their issues are… but those of “my family” that i talk with daily really mean a lot to me… and if i heard that you made that choice, i would seriously be upset.. wondering what else i could have said to make you know that you are a special person… wondering what else i could have done to try to save you.. it would totally devastate me… so as i sit here writing.. im hoping that you read the replies above and know that you are cared for and never have to take that avenue… many hugs..

People post about suicide on here all the time. I asked my boyfriend if he’d miss me. Just the product of wonder.

i would probably be very angry and a little disappointed, since i find you to be a very interesting person. and interesting people should never waste their life in suicide. i would feel a little disappointed in humanity altogether, because here we have the best and our brightest offing themselves like adolescent lemmings. in the case of suicide, i don’t blame the society, i believe most of the blame either lands on the shoulders of the people closest to the victim, or the deceased themselves. interesting people should have the forthought to realize how their lives how the power to affect people. they should realize their own potential to lead and make a change. interesting people should be able to learn from their mistakes and from them learn to be stronger. i would have been extremely disappointed that you did not succeed in these things. your suicide would be an incredible tragedy indeed, and only serve to further my disillusionment with the best of mankind.

however, i do not know you. my daily schedule would not change except for the thoughts i think and a few words i say. “a kid killed himself today,” is a horrible thought to weigh upon the mind, especially when i might have had the ability to prevent it, especially when that person held so much promise. perhaps what intellectuals need most is common sense.

it is a relief to know that you are not intending suicide. in the kindest and most well-intending way possible, i encourage you to stop complaining about the pitiful what-if?s in life and start focusing on the power you hold to change your life and the lives of others. good luck.

i’d cry. I dont know you, but its sad when people even think about it.

I’d wonder if it was true, then give a little sigh and shake my head. I’d probably go look at your profile, posts, replies, and try to figure out who you were and why you did it. Then I’d sigh again and move on.

Not to sound like I’m trying to act all therapist, but I think the reason you made this post is to see if the people here who have offered help and support to you genuinely really cared about you, or if you’re just a person on a computer in some land somewhere to them. Sometimes I wonder that, too.
In all brutal honesty, if you killed yourself it wouldn’t really affect my life much at all. But on whatever night I’m up late watching some bad movie on Bravo or in class trying to ignore my science work, I’d probably start thinking about this and wonder if there was anything I could have ever said that would have stopped you.

^That was beautiful, Silverwings :) Seriously, I’ve got damp eyes now lol

Well, I don’t know you! So its hard to really say what…but the post you wrote to my post has helped, so I would probably feel saddened.

I would probably feel guilty or at least ponder whether the discussion we had in other posts was beneficial or contributed to the self pity that leads to your violent end to your own precious existence. Then I would take a moment and mourn your lost light, then continue to find a way to keep the pointless destruction of life from happening again. Since I know you and some of your story though, I would remember you at least for a time.. and would like to say I would not label other people who have had similar life experiences, but Im not sure if I would or not.
I certainly hope you choose life and stay with us.

I would be saddened that a kindred spirit was extinguished. As a multiple you not only have responsibility to yourself but your others as well. As for how I would feel - I would first be a bit shocked, then when the shock wore off feel a bit lost as to why. Although I have contemplated suicide myself at times, there has always been at least one reason to live that outweighed my need to die.
As a multiple you know what it is like to be within yourself and have others with you. If you are dead that does not end, not for you. You would be alone. That would make me feel sad. No one should have to face that sort of loneliness.
My girls (other personalities [ambient life forms]) would probably look for you throughout ambient space to retrieve any part of you and bring you back to sentience. They have grown fond of you for your strength of character and courage to deal with your condition with love and fortitude as you have. I would mourn the loss of someone that has so much potential to do so much more than you can imagine. It is in the imagination where your life begins, it would be such a waste for you to end it before you even give life a real chance.

Nine, my sister in law hung herself from the rafters when her children where 16 and 18. The news was horrible. She died. Her children suffer because of the loss. My initial reaction was grief and loss. Deep saddness for a waste of life and energy. Fear she would spend eternity lost in pain and suffering because she did not deal with it while alive.

Now, I am angry at her when I think of it. Suicide is so selfish. It takes alot of strength to follow through with it. Strength that could be directed to heal onself instead of run.

Now, I am angry and will remain angry at her for not taking ownership of her struggles. Angry at her for choosing to abandon her children and burden them with the legacy of a mother who committed suicide.

Suicide is cowardly and leaves those left to survived tormented. It is a horrible act.

So, I would be sad for your pain. I would be disgusted by your cowardly behavior.

My boss attempted suicide a few months ago. It disgusts me, just it truely does.
