Sometimes Do you think it would be easier for everyone, if you just died????
Question:
My family says that whenever i'm down, it depresses them and they think i cry too much ( like every other day i'm crying alot). I'm taking Fluoxetine for my depression. I don't mean to cry, but i have just had enough of feeling hopeless and scared.
Does anyone feel that it would be easier, if you died??
Answers:
Your family cares about you silly! And when one member is down, it effects everyone. That's called LOVE!!! No, your being gone would NOT make life easier for them!.. Is Fluoxetine Prozac? I took Prozac and HATED IT!!! I took Trazodone...HATED IT!!. I took Lexipro and it was good, but with my perimenopausal , it couldn't compete, so I take Paxil and LOVE IT!! Maybe, probably, obviously, your'e taking the wrong med, kiddo! What works for one don't always work for another. Please go back to your doc, ok? Be a human guinea pig for awhile if necessary to find a medicine that will have you smiling. You don't have to live that way, ok? Hugs to ya! oooooooooooooo P.S. Oh, and my family would NOT be better off without me because who'd do the laundry and pick up the dog poop in the yard???
i think like that too sometimes.but its not right i tell you.
Every minute of my life.
However, you need to realize that even though you may consider yourself a burden on your family, they do take care of you and you bring them down because they care about you. The best thing you can do is work with them to work through how you're feeling.
If the medication you're on isnt working, and you've been on it sometimes, talk to your doctor about increasing the dosage or trying a different one.
In all honesty, no. I have never felt it would be easier on me or my loved ones if I were to die. I have had major depression too...but haven't been suicidal. That does not keep me from sympathizing with those who do as I have a best friend who is suicidal from time to time.
So, I think the best favor you can do for yourself right now is to realize that you are thinking irrationally and that the negative self-defeating thoughts you are having is "normal" for someone who is feeling suicidal. So, be honest with yourself and realize that these thoughts are irrational.
Also, get in to see someone who provides cognitive therapy...someone who can help you work through these awful feelings.
Sometimes medication is helpful.
Good luck.
I know that feeling. You need to get with a therapist and get your medication fixed. I know I have had to do that a lot. If you can find a therapist and a psychiatrist together that is great. Dying is not the answer. Life is too much fun. And when you get old like me you get to have grand babies to play with!! You get some help Heaven can wait for now you go on and be a blessing to someone else who is having problems.
Nope. There has been suicide in my family before, and the one guy who did it was a cousin. He was a lot of trouble when he was alive. Everybody loved him but everybody also had a hard time with his problems and things he did. But when he died... things got SO much worse. Many people going into long term depression themselves, lots of anger, blame and sooooo much guilt. It has been almost 30 yrs since he did this and the whole extended family has never fully recovered. Instead of all of this, work on getting well. If what you're doing now doesn't help, seek other help. Instead of focusing on 'they might get by okay without me' focus instead about how delighted and overjoyed they will be to see you well and happy again.
NO BUT SOMETIMES I FEEL THAT I WOULD BE BETTER OFF IF I DIED IT SEEMS AS IF EVERYONE HATES ME ONE UNDERSTANDS THE PAIN I GO THROUGH DAILY I FEEL LIKE THERE IS NO WAY OUT I FEEL TRAPPED I FEEL LIKE I'M SUFFOCATING GOD HELP ME
I suggest you stop resisting being here.
Embrace your life as you find it. & you'll be at peace.
I think that everyone has that feeling from time to time but it isn't true. There is always going to be that one person that will miss you.
