Title: Does anybody else get these thoughts
Post by: Marie1991 on September 23, 2012, 11:53:09 PM
I know this isnt normal..or it might be... I'm not sure and its something I've never told anybody, ever. This seems like a good place just to say whatever I'm going through and whatever I feel. At my really really low points I think about suicide. I dont think i'd ever go through with it but I will sit there and ask myself if I actually would. Now I don't know if this is something a lot of people come across and think about. Its the fact that I'm at the lowest point and I ask myself would I really do it.

I would think most people with depression think about it from time to time....

Not a nice thing mind you....  :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[

Yes I think it is common, I certainly have these thoughts sometimes  %^%

Yes I think it's common too. At my worst I contemplated it all the time. Now, if I have a really bad day, I still think that at least I have that option  %^%

It's very very common and a symptom of depression. I think we've all felt it very keenly but are still here on the forum talking and helping each other, so maybe that's some proof that we can survive those horrible thoughts? xx

Yeah I guess it is almost impossible not to have suicidal thughts when you suffer from depression.

I've spent days thinking about it and researching it. As everyone has said it is definitely common to have these thoughts. We're all experiencing similar things and I am glad you felt comfortable to speak to us because we're here to help eachother. xx

Most definitely, I have the means and know how and where I'll do it but thankfully I've so far managed not to take that final step

Me too. As the others have said, I think its quite 'normal' with depression, still horrible though.
