I really need someone to talk to.

I don’t have any friends I can talk to anymore. I am seriously thinking about suicide. Can someone talk?

you know what i do when i am randomly just down… i sleep.

for some reason when im having a bad day or it just turns to a bad day, its usually because im sleepy and i make things seem way worse than they are.

get some sleep man and i guarentee you will feel better.

i know it sounds likes a really stupid solution but give it a try!

lol yeah can’t sleep forever i know, but i promise you will feel better.

when you are awake, just do anything.
ex; stay in your room, listen to music (music is the most influential form of expression), and do exactly what you feel like.

help other people in their posts and their problems.

P.S im doing that right now :D

Hahaha, I am doing the same thing. All alone in my room, listening to music and helping people with there posts. I still feel down though. I always feel down. I feel like I have no one to connect to. Everyone else is connecting when I am unconnected. Does this make sense.

i know that feeling :[ all i can say is things ARE going to get better sometime, and killing yourself now you’ll miss out on everything you want to do with your life (traveling the world, or seeing your favorite band in concert, etc)

i know, that probably doesn’t help at all, but it’s true. things will get better, and you don’t get a second chance at life. killing yourself you lose your only chance!

well if that doesnt do it for you, then go more out there.

i have personally never done it but my mom did recommend me to do this. she told me to go to a hospital and volunteer for community service to spend time with kids that have cancer or uncurable diseases. it sounds sad but she told me that being there for them is all you and them need.

well i guess the only remedy now is sleep lol dont have anything better really except the few things i do when i am down.

i get creative when i am depressed so i draw, make music, write poems or just random crap of how i am feeling.

you could write and save it so in the near future, you can look back on it.

You are connected though. Try a different approach. Go look at yourself in the mirror and smile. Make goofy faces, try to laugh and have fun with yourself. I talk to myself constantly so I am never alone…

I’m here and you are here. Electronic friends are poor substitutes for the real thing, though. But most people today don’t communicate like they did in the day. It is all text and electronic crap so you are not really doing anything much different from others. What do you need, a best friend or girlfriend or just a big hug? Hugging makes you feel much better. Do you have parents alive and well? They are good starts. Brothers, sisters… ?

Mother in law is in the hospital having her toes amputated due to diabetes and has fallen 4 times AT THE F-ING HOSPITAL!!! Hit her head in the bathtub last time can you spell healthcare crisis??? So tie her down already. My wife has been gone over 2 weeks to provide moral support.

My grandmother had a knee replacement, it got infected and she got really sick. She now has to get IV transfusions everyday. My grandfather has to drive her to the hospital back and forth everyday. He is 84 years old. My mother is recovering alcoholism, she quit ever since I moved away to Buffalo. Two months ago!!! I had many bad experiences with her.

I’m probs not the best person to answer this given my own situation, but maybe it’s worth seeing a doc about depression before thinking about suicide.

I hear you on the lack of a connection with somebody. I’ve come to sites like these in desperation of somebody to talk to.

Sleep is good advice though. Or keep yourself really busy with a project with a tight deadline.
