I tried to once. I had the nail gun in my hand and couldnt get it to load, one of the kinds that uses 22 shells and shoots nails into concrete, so I took like 40 asperin and passed out, woke up and called my mom. Took me to the hospital. Stayed there a week. I guess that experience was an eye opener. I always have had anxiety disorder and depression. Was on Effexor for a year, all the sudden I decided to stop taking it. I have been fine and am now on no meds. I just kinda changed my outlook on life and enjoy different things now. Alcoholism didnt help any of it along either.

i tried with painkillers and just ended up blackin out and wakin up again, while i that state i felt like i was floating and in awhole nother realm where my thoughts would tell me where to go, was weird, i also used to drink alot and my perception on reality was tottally different, it was like i was livin in my own world inside my self and not knowin where to go and feeling trapped and every day felt the same exact way and my life was just flyin by, months would go by and i'd ask them and they'd say no it's goin by really slow then i'm like wtf am i doin this isn't me, the alcohol affected my personality , my mindset and my conscious, i was sleep deprived, hallucinated both visual and auditorial, heard voices and decided i'm gonna quit drinkin as much and about 2 weeks later i began to find myself again, i got back into car audio and basketball and things i love and was me again, there was somethin that day that just wouldn't let me pass on when i did the painkillers, guess it wasn't my time to go, i hate hitting rock bottom but everytime i seem to get out of it and somethin good happens. i have read that takin meds will make u feel worse so i'm not even goin to bother with that shit.

so that's my story

we've all been there if ya haven't you will sometime in ur life

meds can help or make it worse, they helped me for a while then I decided I didnt need them anymore. Its just playing games with the chemicals in your brain. Actually the main reason I got back into car audio was to try to keep myself occupied. It has helped alot. I wasnt hearing voices or anything. Also my drinking had gotten really bad, my counselor said I was self medicating myelf not knowingly with alcohol. I quit all drinking for 4 mths or so. I since have started but since I can control my drinking since I got that out of my system. If I feel bad I just get on here and call bmxbikes a fagbag then I feel better.

Of course loosing a child would be an excuse not live, but you make it seem that if someone has possessions that they shouldn't feel depression to the point they contemplate their own death.

Losing a child is one of the hard fk'n things you can ever go though in life. Honestly if you can get through that you can get through just about anything. I know, I lost my first born son at 14 days.

That shit was hard, honestly me and my wife both thought about it. But with help from family and friends we were able to pull through and now have 2 girls. Life get hard, if you believe in god, its a test and make you a stronger person.

I am not pointing fingers at anyone. I am merely trying to explain the situation to people that do not understand.

Alright, fair enough //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

and i know from experience in the field that the vast majority of the population do not understand it at all.

No, cant understand it ALL. Even if its your field of expertise.

there also are many other people who claim they do understand it and claim they have been through it all but will still ridicule the suicidal person (namely type A personalities). i dont know you and i dont know what youve been through by any means. so who am i to say who you are or what your thinking?

Well, im not trying to redicule anyone, from my point of view however it just doesnt make sense and in reality, it doesnt make sense. However as you mentioned in that state I guess that doesnt "click"

I just want to make it clear to anyone who is thinking the wrong way about the subject matter, because this IS a very serious situation. Its not a game, people can die if youre not careful.

I guess I can be hard on some people, probably because I dont understand how some people can be so soft and slip into depression when the things that have happened to them seem mediocre (in my eyes) and I see it as weakness? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wow.gif.23d729408e9177caa2a0ed6a2ba6588e.gif Maybe when I get older Ill change this way of thinking, who knows.

Hows this, I promise not to work the ******* hotline //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

btw, you couldnt be more correct about the brain being far more complex than we even know

Yeah, if we could understand how to use 50% of it, im sure things would be a whole lot more interesting //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/*******.gif.a649d21efc0d1fd4890a6428166586c1.gif

Wow, sorry to hear that. Best of luck to the both of you, im sure you're a stronger person now but that must have been hard. Something like that, thats heavy. I hope ill never have to go through.

Yeah, man. I have. Fortunately, I have been holding on, and I'm glad you are, too...

Problem is, she has really no family support and her fiance was the one basically killed the baby. I honestly don't know if she is suicidal, but I have been told by her co-workers they think she is.

...im hoping she not with that person anymore, I mean...wtf!? At the very least get the guy locked up, no its not going to change whats already happened but still. If its something thats recent, then I can definitely see why you're worried & personally wouldnt second guess your judgment. Problem is, what can you do?

Used to, but I was also a whiney little ***** at the time. Now I've got relativley shittier problems and I don't think I'd ever consider it again.

And **** medication. I'm never touching any behavioral/mental medication ever again. **** the FDA.

The guy is awaiting manslaughter and various assault charges. My problem is I don't know what to do.

I had a friend that was kinda depressed, and his therapist put him on some pills. He wasn't severely depressed or suicidal or anything, but then once he got on medication, he shot himself within 3 weeks. It's almost been a year since then. I miss him,//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Good, he'll get *** ***** in jail for hurting a child. What a flaming douche bag.

As for what to do, just pay her a visit. What else can you do? maybe it'll help unload some of her stress? (or you'll drive her crazy //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif ) but im sure being there in person would help, just wing it from that point. At the very least, you would have tried.
