how do i cope with wanting to die?
Question:
Answers:
We're all placed in stressful situations sometimes that are difficult to cope with. My best advice to you is to look at the positive side of things. The fact that you have a job and an income is a good thing. The fact that you are using a computer to access the Internet is a great privilege (believe me it's a privilege). The fact that you were raised in this great nation is an opportunity. You sound young and you entire life is ahead of you. This is only a chapter in your life. A chapter is bound to end when another begins. Have patience and faith in yourself and in your ability to change your perception of your situation. Thank God for the moments that you have. Remember, this is life, not a dress rehearsal. Make everyday count. And finally, I have personally found that I feel a lot better when I stop focusing on my own problems and try to offer help to someone else. We get so focused on self sometimes that we forget that there are people out there who are in a much worst situation than us. Try to lend a helping hand to someone, and you will see how blessed you will become.

Hey it is never that bad, whenever i get sad like this I call up a Friend--I suggest you do so asap. Suicide is painless but it is also a permanent solution to a temporary problem Seek the help of a social worker, a pyschologist, or talk to your friends and families. Remeber, killing yourself doesn't solve anything. Talking to other people and telling them your problems will.
why dont u move from ohio
This might freak you out, or make you think you are a freak, but you're not. You should find someone to talk to, like a counselor, they can help you to straighten things out.
move back to SC, or try to make the best of Ohio. get new friends, a new job, new everything.. if you keep looking so negatively on your life, it will always be horrible.change it, cos no one else can make you happy but your self. It's what you do that counts, learn to do something that you like then you'll start feeling better.
Change the things you don't like.
Find people with whom you might have things in common (www.meetup.com).
Look for another job and/or location.
Don't give up on yourself. There are too many people waiting in the wings to kick us down when we're hurting.
get a hobby! hey sweetie.i only have advice someone gave me.focus on the good things, and on the blessings you have, and ignore the bad as best you can.
Sometimes it helps to volunteer at a homeless shelter or cancer ward.helps you realize how much worse life could really be.
Running or physical activity helps sometimes too.
Don't give up tho.life's great, and you're a wonderful person who can do great things with your life, even in Ohio!
Get off of the dying crap. This is your life to live and you happen to be one of the luckiest examples of existence in the universe, did you know that?
Some times when things are bad, when things look down, you have to stop and say to yourself: It's time for me to stop asking for what "she's having" and start asking for what you are having.:
wel ..how abt thinkn dis way.u cant die coz u gotta kill da people u hate first.and besides..hu knos dare may be sum1 for whom u mean the world It is not life that you are fed up with. It is where you live and your circumstances. If you are hating life you can not do anything to change it. Be positive and change your life and not try to be silly.
It is your life not everyone elses.
Number one - you should do what I did, and call a doctor immediately to get a referral to a psychiatrist.
Number two - look for a job online for a job in a state you can be happy in. If your current situation makes you that miserable, then you need to leave it. If you were happy in SC, then go back there.
Number three - ignore any jerks that might respond unkindly to your question. They have no life.
Number four - Remember that you mean the world to someone, someone would not be alive if not for you, there is someone out there that thinks of you everyday and there are lots of people who would be lost without you.
I know what ur going through. I had a great life in NM but then had to move to arizona. Now, some people like az but it ain't for me. it is too flippin hot here to do anything outside, which sucks for me cuz i am a big outdoor person. the people stick to their clicks so being new is so hard. i still feel new and i've been here for like 3 years. my advice to you, is to go back to sc if it is possible, or find some positive things about ohio that you can enjoy. no matter how bad things feel, remember that it is not as bad as it seems. you could be on in a country where you can't speak the language with no money or supplies. find someone you can talk to about how you feel. please, don't give up though. Know that you are not the only person to feel this way and you won't feel this way forever. Although you may not be consciously contemplating killing yourself, a suicide hotline volunteer will have the tools to get you excited about life again. Specific to Ohio, check out http://suicidehotlines.com/ohio.html. Also, temporary medications until you get back on your feet are always an option. If you're too intimidated to check out a psychiatrist in your town, look into online psychiatrist evaluations such as http://www.etherapistsonline.com/therapy/psychiatrist.htm. Also, if you're religious, join a church. If you're not, find a hobby you enjoy in Ohio. Take up something fun and new so that you associate the fun new thing with your new city. Volunteer work will also help you feel you have a purpose. Whatever you do, don't give up.
Move. relocate start over If you don't like life where you are got to where you do like it. I can't even tell you how many times i've moved. or go out and meet new people that are into the same thing you are. or learn how to play a musical insturment, that puts me in my own little world.
Well. how long have you lived in Ohio, and how many of your neighbors have you met? I think that perhaps you just need some interaction with others. You may find that overall, people who live in South Carolina and those who live in Ohio aren't that much different. However, there can be noticable differences in city dwellers as opposed to rural dwellers. Did you use to live in the city and now live in the country or vice versa? Do you suppose you might be able to find a new job? One more thing - maybe you just need a project to keep you busy. It could be a physical, spiritual, or intellectual project. It's a good escape if you don't want to try to connect with your neighbors - plant a garden, research your genealogy online, take a mechanical class to fix your own car, start attending church/temple/synagogue, or whatever. Find ANYTHING that has EVER remotely interested you and try developing that skill or interest.
Start by looking for a new job. You spend a third of your life at work, and if you hate it, your whole outlook on life will suffer, as you have found.
Also, remember the hobbies you had in SC, and go back to them. If you rediscover the interests that made you love SC, maybe you'll grow to at least like Ohio. You'll also have an opportunity to meet people who have at least one thing in common with you.
Please get out and get some exercise. Moving around will do wonders for your overall outlook on life, and it will give you time each day to clear your head.
If you moved to Ohio for a husband or boyfriend, you need to enlist his support. Sit him down and rationally and calmly tell him that you really do not like living in Ohio, that you hate your job, haven't met any people you like, and you are beginning to feel depressed overall as a result. Ask him if moving back to SC is a possibility for him professionally. Try not to be overly emotional when you do this, or he'll think you're just PMSing and won't take you seriously.
Whether you moved on your own or with a man, it sounds like you are suffering from depression. If you are not able to get out of your funk on your own, please see a doctor.
Good luck. Keep your chin up.
