Effect of Suicide

[xXoblivionXx]

It's something that I've been thinking a lot about recently- my death and how it will affect others. I don't know if this makes me at all considerate or plain out selfish, but that doesn't really matter.

How will suicide affect my family? the couple of friends that I have? the people who only knew my name?

I guess what I'm asking is out of experience how has suicide affected some of you?

We all know that death is inevitable yet I've become what I've feared all these years- I'm alive but I'm dead on the inside :(

xXoblivionXx,

The effect of suicide is detrimental. It is also very important to understand the effects of suicide. Whether you believe it or not, those around you that you interact with everyday, even if they do not love or care for you on the surface, will be emotionally effected by suicide to some degree. It is a gruesome thought. Therefore, every time they think of you from that point on, they will think grotesque and depressing thoughts. Thus, the value of your life to others will diminish to nothing more than a depressing tale of suicide. That is what you will be remembered for.

You say you feel dead on the outside, but there is no guarantee that this feeling will not go away. Even if it never goes away, it's better to simply live out the rest of your life rather than merely giving up in your developmental stages. Why not keep living? Because it's too hard to live?

It isn't actually that hard to just stay alive. You might as well. The only thing that comes out of suicide is badness, nothing more. You negate the problem and turn the value of your life to nothing but stories.

Sorry if this post sounded mean or anything. I am telling you these vital truths because I care about your well-being. I believe you have much potential which I have seen in the messages we have exchanged. You have much potential to make others happy at the very least, if not yourself. That is something to live for. Living in unison and in the purpose of the well-being of those around you is something to live for, and you seriously have the potential to do it.

Even if you find no purpose in yourself to live, live anyways, just for the hell of it. Let life throw punches and just see where the ride takes you. If it takes you to no more than abuse and misery, so be it. Life is but a condemnation, from birth until death. The key is to enjoy your condemnation, and if not to enjoy it, then to merely experience it, to live it.

You have my best wishes, and I believe in you to keep on going. :)

Death is the fucking shittiest thing. Removing yourself from the world may seem like the solution to you but it's only selfish. By killing yourself you kill a part of everyone that knows you.
I know it's said that it's selfish alot, but it's the truth. If you have any compassion or empathy for your friends don't do it.

My suicidal friend made a pledge not to kill himself after my other friend died because he finaly got to see how death ruins everyone's lives.

Honey, like everyone here: PLEASE, GET HELP. Suicide is NEVER the option. I know it isn't, because I struggle with it myself.

When I was 7, my niece committed suicide. She wanted to come that weekend, but was missing. She jumped off a bridge. All I could remember is that I asked my mom: 'Where is C. mom? She would come today, right?' And she answered me crying: 'She is somewhere else darling, you will see her later.' I didn't know why she was crying, I was a happy 7 year old, and didn't spend second thoughts on it. But that doesn't mean it is not a shock right now.
My niece her death played a big part in my life: Even though I wasn't very connected with her: I hated myself. Because maybe I could have helped her. I thought I was selfish for not being able to see that she had problems. 'What if's' in my mind when I found out, and even now, 8 years after.

If you commit suicide. It will HURT. You may not know how many people love you. You may think it won't do much hurt, but it WILL, whoever you are. You can't see, because you think so low of yourself that you're willing to give your life away, and turning your back on a future that who knows how great. If you end it, you will leave everyone in pieces. Because even the ones who weren't connected with you, would think 'What if I reached out?' 'What if I just talked to her/him?' And because they can't find an answer, they will just blame theirselves. They will feel miserable.

Not only that. Your parents, they will break. Even more than everyone else. Even if they hit you, punish you, mistreat you, they LOVE you, but they have issues that hide that feeling from you. They created a piece of life with the love they had: You are living proof of their love for each other and for YOU. Without them you wouldn't be here. Living is a blessing, and you refused their blessing. You ended it, and so, will die a piece of them if you die. They will miss you so badly, I can't even describe. I saw the parents of my niece break down on days where we thought they where happy. They got divorced like happens to many sad parents, because they couldn't bear the grief. Not alone, nor together. You will ruin them. You will ruin your friends.

When you ruin someone, they will try to forget you, because you caused pain. Too much pain. You won't be forgotten, but not spoken about, because it just hurts too much. Even now I can't think of my niece without crying. And remember: I never had a very strong bond, but she was my niece nevermind, and it hurts that she threw her precious life away. Precious days that we could have spend together.

Darling, suicide hits you. It does. Depression does too, but depression goes away. I speak of experience, I really do. Suicide is done, and can't go away because you're already gone. Please, seek help. We can't lose you. Even now, if you would commit it, I would feel BAD. 'Maybe I should have talked more, it's my fault.' You don't think about it, but when it happens others will think it. Don't do that to them. Don't let them go through regret, grief, missing, longing to see you, just for one second again. Please, I am always here for you. You are worth it. Never, ever give up. Life GETS better. I'm the fucking living proof of that. 'Ive been there, I'm still here and I know how you feel.' Never lose hope. Fight. You are NOT alone [emoji173]️

if you die. there won't be a tomorrow. You will never know When it gets better. Your parents will cry every night missing you so much, your siblings will be so upset they won't know what to do. You will miss out on so much life. Your friends will wish they had seen the signs, and will always wonder what would have happened if they had done more. You won't wake up, ever. And I know that may feel okay, and you have excepted that, and you believe the world would be better without you. You have never been more wrong, you here for a reason, and I want you to stay....
