Question:


Answers:
talk to someone you trust - and try doing something productive when you find yourself on your own. try writing poetry or simply just writing. thinking of things that are positive instead of always leaning on the negative will help. alter your way of thinking by simply changing your minds' channel. do whatever it takes to get away from that line of thinking and seak PROFESSIONAL help now, you are still sooooo young and you have so much life ahead of you. You have a rough road ahead of you in these teen years, but they will pass -- HOLD YOUR HEAD UP HIGH honey, you are much stronger than you're giving yourself credit for :) - talk talk talk.. and spread the word about how you're feeling. maybe your story could help someone else out of their funk too. positive reinforcements are the key. and they start with you!

Best wishes to you

Please talk to a couselor in your area. There are so many places that can help you out! Have you considered talking to your parents about this?
Yes see a doctor. They will help you.
i'm not sure that any of us online can help you much.the best thing for you to do is go and get professional help or call a suicide prevention hotline.i'm sure that somewhere in your city they offer help to teenagers such as yourself.
Go to your parents and tell them your thoughts. You have lots to live for!

God Bless You Sweetie!
im sure whatever your thinking you should kill yourself for isnt worth it go to a therapist or tell your parents they will help you
There's a national suicide prevention hotline - people are there to talk to you when you are feeling down - I urge you to call them! 1-800-SUICIDE.
hi,
dont get bored too early. people in this world are in a circle and they are keep doing it the rest of their life and still they are no t getting bored! but you i think have got bored from your daily life at a fairly early age. So sucide is not solution as if it were people would have tried it on mass scale and it would have been leagal and no one would have lived here for so long. Only meditaion can help.
Try this 10 day course www.dhamma.org and you will see a solution, Take care :-)
not necessarily.. talk to someone u trust abt it 1st. then maybe see if their help helps.. if not, see your school counsellor, telling him or her to keep it confidential, which they usually do.. if all of the above still dsnt help u.. let time do the healing.. once i was depressed beyond hope too.. i was 16 then.. now, time has healed all my wounds.. n im in university.. all bright and cheerful. sometimes, all we need is a litl bit of time away from whats distressing u thus much?!
Definatly go see a therepist. And obviously something is going on in your life that you are unhappy with but just remember that nothing is ever that bad and remember being depressed is just a feeling like being happy or sad and it will always pass. Just try to do something fun to take your mind off it and definatly talk to someone..try your parents or friends you will be suprised at how much they can help you. Try to smile .everything will be ok :-)
are you trying to say that you're gonna hurt yourself? tell me more about what you are feeling now and the grounds of having a thought of committing suicide, you can email me at smiley_vanz@yahoo.com
Please talk to your mom or dad, or someone. My son is 13 and he had these thoughts too, and we have a GREAT home life! No yelling or fighting and we all love each other and get along well, and have a happy marriage and all. So, he felt REALLY guilty, but he couldnt help these thoughts! It is a chemical imbalance in your brain, most likely..causing depression, along with puberty. Some teens deal ok with it, but for others the thoughts just keep getting worse and worse, and they cant help it! It is not your fault. With my son, he got MUCH worse with anxiety and stress, like from school. There are 3 steps. THinking about it, planning it, and doing it. My son was on #2, and he was SMART enough to tell the counselor at school. He was thinking about how he would do it. This is planning, and very serious. I had to pick him up from school and take him right away to an emergency crisis center. He had to stay in a hospital with other kids his age for a few days, and went through therapy and was given some medication that has REALLY helped him (so far anyway!)---PLEASE talk to someone, and if you cant stop the thoughts, ask for a doctor appointment and tell him or her..it is better to be safe than sorry!
First of all think. I'm sure you are pretty. Even if you think you're not or if someone else has told you're not, still think. Do you want to throw away life? Do you want to basically go to hell? In the bible, it says that if you commit suicide you will not always go but have a major possiblity of going to hell. It doesn't say it exactly that way but that is what it is basically saying. I am not trying to make you feel anymore worse but do you want to throw life away just at the age of 13? You have many years ahead of you that you have not yet seen and you won't even reach it. And also get professional help and let them talk to you. Please think about this.
This is a medical emergency. Tell your parents immediately and get some help NOW

My own Experience
I had the same feelings when I was your age. They lasted for a couple of years, and then things got better when I went to high school, started working, ans was generally able to be more independent. I think it was a combination of hormones, junior high school, problems at home, feeling confused and very out-of-place in a lot of situations, etc. What helped me a lot was finding people I could talk with, especially some older people such as teachers and students several grade levels above me, reading about mental health issues in the psychology and self-help book section of bookstores and libraries, and a couple of times I even called a suicide hotline and spoke with people who were really kind and understanding. These days, there must be a lot of information on the internet as well. Please try to think positive thoughts, do the things that are not harmful that make you feel good, make connections with good, caring people, and stay strong. Always remember that the way you feel right now will not last.these feelings will pass and life will hold great happiness for you in the future, so don't do anything now that would prevent you from experiencing the joy that lies ahead for you.
YOU NEED TO SEEK HELP NOW. TALK TO YOUR PARENTS. THEY NEED TO FIND YOU BOTH A PSYCHIATRIST AND A THERAPIST (COUNSELOR). THERAPY SHOULD ALWAYS BE THE PRIMARY SOURCE OF TREATMENT IN YOUR TREATMENT PLAN, DEPRESSION IS A VERY SERIOUS SICKNESS THAT LEFT UNTREATED WILL MOST LIKELY LEAD TO SELF-MEDICATING (DRUG AND/OR ALCOHOL ABUSE), A LIFE OF MISERY AND POSSIBLY DEATH. I HAVE STRUGGLED WITH DEPRESSION ALL OF MY LIFE BUT I HAVE BEEN STABLE NOW SINCE 1997 AND HAVE A WONDERFUL HAPPY LIFE, BUT UNFORTUNATELY FOR ME I DID NOT SEEK HELP WHEN MY SYMPTOMS WERE MILD AND FAIRLY MANAGEABLE. I TRIED TO DEAL WITH EVERYTHING MYSELF, THIS DID NOT WORK OUT WELL AS SOON STARTED TO SELF-MEDICATE. GOT REALLY SUICIDAL, AND SUFFERED A COMPLETE BREAKDOWN IN 1993. RECOVERY AND STABILIZATION FROM THAT POINT WAS A LONG AND DIFFICULT JOURNEY ! I COULD HAVE SAVED MYSELF AND MY FAMILY A LOT OF PAIN HAD I SOUGHT TREATMENT SOONER. PLEASE DARLIN' GET HELP TONIGHT !
Yes there are treatments that can help like medications and counselling. You need to tell a teacher, school counsellor or your parents. You need them to get you to a doctor or hospital.

GET MEDICAL HELP NOW THIS IS SERIOUS

You can and will feel better with help, but you need it now.
There are so many person willing to help you. I will try to help you. send me email.
Wow, seems like a lot of teens are suffering from this curse. Yes, there is plenty of help out there. I, too, was suffering from not only suicidal thoughts, but acted on them a couple of times. The last time landed me in the ER and they sent me to a mental hospital for 72 hours. Worst time of my life. Congratulate yourself for asking for help, that means that you aren't giving up as many do. Please visit my webpage, "Antidepressant That Works" and see how I dug my way out of the rut (definition of rut: a grave with both ends removed).

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to email me.
I don't know your situation (and I'm not a doctor), so I'm just guessing here, but it might have to do with reaching puberty and the release of hormones that are changing your body. Sometimes that process can trigger a chemical imbalance, resulting in depression.

I know I went through a roller-coaster ride when I hit puberty. It never got so bad for me that I seriously considered suicide, but my circumstances and chemical composition are bound to be different from yours (and everyone else's for that matter). I would think that the best plan is to check with a psychiatrist to see if an antidepressant would be right for you.at least until the roller-coaster ride settles down. The hotline that another poster provided sounds like a great way to get hooked up with the right resources.

As dark as it can sometimes get, your life is too precious and rare to toss away - at least that's what the Buddha said. Hope that helps.

P.S. I strongly disagree with mindOVERmatter's suggestion that meditation will cure you. I have been meditating for over 8 years and have gone to Buddhist seminary. Meditation can be very helpful for most people on a number of levels, but it is definitely not a cure-all. I know a few people who meditate daily and ALSO take antidepressants because meditation did not cure their depression. If your depression is chemical, seek treatment.
I was 13 once and tought I had nothing to live for. I am now amother of 4, a regional manager with my company and very very happy. I can't believe that the thought ever crossed my mind. My daughter is 16 and she felt the same way about 2 years ago. When her father and I sat down and told her that there were many people out there that would be terribly hurt by this, she cried and cried and said she did not realize so many people cared for her. She is now a receptionist at my work ,makes good money and loves to shop and would never think about suicide again. Not only that but she has 3 younger siblings who look up to her!! The world may seem like it's not worth anything, but you have along life ahead of you and IT WILL get better! I promise. Don't try to please anyone but yourself. Be the best that you can be in everything you do. Maybe you can pick one person that you would want to make proud of you and make a change for them and yourself :) It is a sin to take your life! Remember God loves you and it is ok to pray. He will listen!!
Turning thirteen can be scary for young people if they haven't formed solid relationships with either their parents or someone from a secure family. Beginning the "teens" makes you think you need to be with the populars or a similar group. Beware comparing yourself to any others.
You have been created with every perfect facet needed to complete your own life purpose.. If you don't agree with that, you must try to get closer to God. . (To know Him is to know His Word - and why He sent his Son to teach us.) Remember, a 13 yr old is not complete.You have to stick it out to experience life at its fullest. The choices you make and your lifestyle need to lead you where You want to go. DON'T miss out on all those blessings and the good fortune just around the corner! YOU have to be ready for them before they can happen.
Convince yourself (and tell others if you have to); just say, "I may be a simple stone but given the right pressure (and choices), I'm sure to turn into the gem God intended me to be.
go see a psych you may need some pills to help you
if your having thoughts of suicide you need to tell someone, doesn't have to be your parents but can be a friends parent, or any adult you feel comfortable talking to, but you need to let someone know how you are feeling.
dont listen to the thoughts that tell u bad things abotu urself or to harm urself. govern ur thoughts
Wickedness, injustice, grief, pessimism, trouble, loneliness, fear, stress, frustration, distrust, unscrupulousness, anxiety, rage, jealousy, resentment, drug addiction, immorality, gambling, prostitution, hunger, poverty, social corruption, theft, war, struggle, violence, oppression, fear of death… News about these issues appear in the newspapers and on TV every day. The popular press devotes entire pages to these subjects, while others serialise articles about their psychological and social aspects. However, our acquaintance with these feelings is not limited solely to the press; in daily life, we, too, frequently come across such problems and, more importantly, personally experience them.
People and societies endeavour to liberate themselves from the distressing experiences, disorder and repressive social structures that have prevailed over the world for long periods. We only need to glance at ancient Greece; the Great Roman Empire; Tsarist Russia, or the so-called Age of Enlightenment, and even the 20th century-a century of misery which saw two world wars and world-wide social disasters. No matter upon which century or location you concentrate your research, the picture will not be appreciably different.
If this is the case, why haven't people succeeded in solving these problems, or at least some efforts been made to remove such social diseases from society?
People have encountered these problems in all ages, yet each time they have failed to find any solutions because the methods they employed were inappropriate. They sought various solutions, tried different political systems, laid down impracticable and totalitarian rules, stirred up revolutions or subscribed to perverted ideologies, while many others preferred to adopt an indifferent attitude and merely accepted the status quo.
In our day, people are almost numbed by this way of living. They readily believe these problems to be "facts of life." They picture a society immune to these problems as being nothing short of impossible-a dream utopia. They persistently and openly express their distaste for such a way of living, yet easily embrace it, since they think they have no other alternative.
The resolution of all these problematic issues is possible only by living by the principles of the "true religion." Only when the values of true religion prevail can a pleasant and tranquil scene replace this gloomy and unfavourable picture, which is doomed to continue so long as God's limits are ignored. To put it another way, people are enslaved by these complications as long as they avoid the values of the Qur'an. Put simply, this is the "nightmare of disbeliefe" and the link below for this wonderful book:

http://harunyahya.net/popup/Download.php?WorkNumber=256&Format=pdf

you will find how the regulation of life by the "norms of morality" introduced by the Qur'an revealed to mankind by God will banish the "nightmare of disbelief," how pessimism, corruption and social restlessness can be eliminated from society, how the individual can surround himself with an ideal environment, what spiritual and material benefits he is likely to attain by adherence to these norms of morality are gone into in detail, and finally, that the unique alternative to all these problems is the morality of the Qur'an.
So far, many books have attempted to deal with the social and psychological problems societies face. Yet, what distinguishes this book from others is its stress on the most realistic solution. It also sincerely warns people against the troublesome future they are likely to face if they fail to resort to this solution.
We expect that every reader of conscience will grasp that peace, mutual trust and an ideal social life is attainable only by embracing the values of the Qur'an and will turn to the true religion, which is Islam.
They will then happily join the ranks of those who never suffer, mentally or physically, from any of the above-mentioned complications. Around them, there will always be an abundance of favours, comfort, love, respect, peace and confidence, and moral virtues will prevail. They will know how to earn God's approval, by observing His limits and the commandments of the Qur'an. They will thus, by having faith in God, attain His mercy and at last enter Paradise.
