Did You Ever Have The Urge to Take Your Own Life....or Somebody Else's?

Depression is hell on earth. It hurts to breathe. Frankly I am amazed at the courage of those who manage to survive and cope with it, particularly if it is a cyclical thing. Yes I have been there. Two attempts during my PTSD heyday. Ooh, the pit. But there is a way out of hell. I honour the kindness of those posters who reached out today, offering help to people suffering from depression. I would like to offer mine also. Please pm me if you need to. It is not your fault you feel this way. You are not weak, you matter, your life matters. Clinical depression is treatable--hey, I am living proof! :love_heart:

Congratulations on overcoming your depression Shal. I'm proud of you. It's not easy to do.

I wouldn't commit suicide unless I was in unbearable pain which could not be relieved and I couldn't take care of myself. It scares me to even think of this.

I've never killed anyone else but ISIS P's me O, and I would defend myself from attackers of any kind - gun weilding or not. I hope I can always muster up this kind of courage as the years of my life roll by.

Yes and Yes......suffice to say I did neither, but if the same or similar circumstances were to occur again, I don't think this time I would hesitate to commit the latter..!!
 
My Father commited Suicide by putting his head in a gas oven when I was only seven year old.:(
I never did get to the bottom of why Dad did that.

Mother, who has left this earth now remarried around 2 years after his death, so I was raised by a Stepfather, who has now also passed away.
Mum went on to have two children by him, and I grew up feeling that they had some favouritism that rankles with me to this day.

Regarding me.
I was aged 30 when my first Wife left me for another bloke.
She had been out all night after telling me that she was going out with the girls.
She telephoned me the next day around 12.00PM to tell me that she had found someone else, and was leaving me.

I just wanted to commit suicide at that point, and actually had a knife in my hand with the intention of slashing my wrists.
But I called the Samaritans, who thankfully talked me out of it.

However, you know what?

If I could see Harry Johnston (you never forget the name of the bloke your Wife goes off with) now I would shake his hand, buy him a few beers, and thank him for going off with my Wife! :D

Cheers Harry!

My sympathy for the loss of your father, that's very sad. Glad you sought help when you thought of doing away with yourself.

Naaahh. come on guys.
Davy was only trying to make a very poor taste joke there that failed miserably.
Wasn't he:confused:
I mean, surely no one on this lovely friendly forum could be so nasty and and heartless and uncaring towards another member.
Could they?
No No No!
Never.
I refuse to believe that people! :D
 
I have had thoughts of maiming certain (2) individuals in the past.
As for the suicide, so far thankfully I have never considered it. I have not been faced with anything in life that has pushed me that far down thus far. I can't even imagine what that kind of he// must be like for anyone who has been there.
 
I was punched by a drunk once... It made me furious... I lost control... and when I was done he had two black eyes and was on the way to the hospital. I never punched anyone before... and I certainly didn't think I'd be able to connect like that.. I am sad to admit that in a morbid sort of way, I liked it.. I know now that I am pretty good at it... Not that I ever intend to ever punch anyone again.... but...............
