My questions...your answers
Published on August 29, 2006 By Question of the Day In Misc
I'm a melancholy person. In general I think of the world in very dark terms. There have been times that I feel like I just want to die and get it over with. I don't feel like that now, but sometimes I worry that something bad will happen and I'll be that sad again.

A few years ago I took a bunch of pills and ended up getting my stomach pumped. Everyone thought it was a suicide attempt but it really wasn't. I just wanted to be numb. I didn't want to deal with my emotions.

How about you? Have you considered suicide?

Yeah.

There was a period in my life when I went through a prolonged and severe episode of depression and considered it then. The depression was kind of an after effect of having been through a bunch of crap the previous two years including back surgery, hand surgery, a divorce, and being struck by lightening and blinded for three months. The depression hit just a few months after I had fully regained my sight (well, except for that 10% in the middle that's permanently gone).

I was in treatment at the hospital for a few weeks and on medication for two years after. Haven't considered it since.

Besides, I'd rather stick around and make other people's lives miserable.

who the fuck is virginia?


Well, Trinitie . . . it's an off-handed reference that justanotherjoe used to an old letter printed about santa claus in the New York Times or Washington Post (can't remember which) when a young girl wrote in to ask about the existence of Santa Claus. An old reference that he probably didn't think you'd get.

Your mind is probably too filled with the lovely words of your "genius."   

If Eminem is a genius, I'm a freaking GOD.

Have I ever considered suicide? Never!

Have I been depressed/defeated enough to wish I would simply wake up dead the next morining? Yes.

Freddy Mercury sums it up pretty well: "...sometimes wish I'd never been born at all"

Please think before you do this thing my friend. "Iff you have lost control of your life to the extent that the only thing you have left to control is weather you are alive or dead then nobody will take that away from you". But please dont. I know depression well, its not just a frame of mind its a physical feeling too. I have had many slow dances with maudlin and she is a beguiling love. perhaps depression is almost all you know and you may be drawn back again and again to that feeling you know so well. Please remember how special and unique you are. dont go quietly into the night. This is your cross my friend, we all have one, bare it well.

no, i have never ever think about this, and would not do in future and give advise to everyone not doing so for the sake of their beloved.

Don't do it, Lonnie. It's not worth it. You have too much to live for. Your children deserve a mother. I hope that you find the strength to carry on and don't give in to the pain you're feeling right now.

For a long time I had so much going on in my life that I couldn't handle all of the stress. I dealt with it by thinking of killing myself so that I wouldn't have to deal with all of the problems. I knew that I wasn't actually going to do it, but the thought of getting rid of all the stress in my life was comforting to me. The problem was that this lasted a long time, and I became pretty depressed. Also, now suicide seems like a much more viable option to me, so I have to work hard to keep it out of my mind now when I have something that is hard to deal with. I would suggest to try as hard as you can to keep those thoughts out of your head, because once you get comfortable with them it will be far too easy for you to have a single bad day push you over the edge.
