Re: Holding yourself back
A very close friend said to me --
"I ask myself am I weak, and the answer is always no"
That works for me..
Re: Holding yourself back
Because things always get better. Take whatever you are facing as a challenge. Rise to the occassion. Also, always remember that there's at least one other person on this earth who is facing something a lot worse than what you are facing right now. Make a list of things that are going for you rather than focusing on the things going against you. Talk to somebody you trust or just talk to somebody!
Good luck, dont give up! Think of the things you will miss :)
Re: Holding yourself back
from pulling the trigger, throwing the toaster in the tub, leaving the gas on etc etc.
What kept you from ending it? Anybody has any stories to share of themselves or people they know? I could use some right about now.
i dunno what always stop me, well i suppose its becos killing ureself is wrong and a huge sin, for which u will never be forgiven. Just to escape this world u will b endlessly punished in the hereafter , so i'd rather experience teh hell in this world than in the real hell, and we can;t even begin to imagine what it will be like there.
I sumtimes just stand by bridges and think i shud jump there and then, or just burn myself alive, or even overdose on paracetamol, but then this fear of allah stops me. I dont know im so angry with allah now, but i still fear his punishments.
THe people who love me my family primarily wud b left to pick up the pieces when im gone. Ill have done the selfish act of ending it, but i'll only further the pain and hell that they r experiencing already, so i just can't bring myself 2 do that to them
Hang on in there:)
Re: Holding yourself back
because there is people who you are responsible for and you need to stick around to make sure they'll be alright. and there is other people who love you and you couldn't do something so cruel and selfish to them.
snap out of it. Just because there is nothing left to say doesn't mean there is nothing left to live for.
Re: Holding yourself back
I know it's going to be a brand new day tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

Re: Holding yourself back

Re: Holding yourself back
Life is way too precious to end it..because of someone else..just move on..and as hard as it seems there will be better days..beleive it!
Re: Holding yourself back
mood swings and indecisions can cost severely, men and women an otherwise really meaningful healing relationship.
having faith in faith and being optimist as well as understanding can really amke a difference.
some people like to complicate relationship and sound or act uncaring and they lose and they make the other person feel unwanted and uncared for which is a very bad feeling.
communicating is better than no communication when both side do want a peaceful connection, a bonding.
when you are violent, you leave room for nothing.
self defense in case of harm and danger to the self is different.
there is social consctructive support group, which can be tapped into.
self accountabilty is the biggest saving grace.
running from own self and while doing that, deceiving own self and others is the ultimate disappointment from any human being.
so, instead of being so destructive, one must try to give a chance to good will and leave it at that.
rest will come on its own..
best,

aliyish, that's extremely distasteful. pls edit it out.
Re: Holding yourself back
i m sorry ..... Its my plan ‘ how I would do it one day ‘…. By no means I m encouraging the thread opener to follow my tip ..
prelude , mate …. Life is a very stubborn and mulish friend of ours .. It wont let you go so easily …
Believe me …I have done it … the minute ya put a freaking cold pistol on your head , you life will start acting as a lover and this Juliet of yours wouldn’t let ya ditch her so easily …
I so wanted to do it … but I didn’t as I still have to settle few scores with this Juliet of mine … And I wont die before doing it …
Think over it …I bet you wouldn’t like to die as a coward without settling your score … or do ya ?
Re: Holding yourself back
Aliyish and Frozen Fire I find it astonishing that you two would dole out such irresponsible advice to someone who is already thinking suicide. Imagine if he actually took up one of the two courses of action that you guys mentioned? Additionally the poster is asking what has KEPT you from ending your life not methods on how to end your life so kindly think before you type.

Sometime you think that you own your life and you have every right to finish it if you choose to. One cannot be more selfish than that, if one thinks like that.
One of my very good friend's wife did that .. she was a sweet looking thin lady .. took 800 Tylenol PM's. She was in ER for 36 hours, on machine, doctors trying to save her, husband crying outside.
That thin lady bloated upto the size of hospital bed .. I am not kidding you. unconcious .. on life support
36 hours later, she died, I was in that room when machine started blinking blue light .. that was code blue , means patient is dead ...
Nurse pushed us out of the room, and started paging doctors ... that was one of the most horrifying night for me .. never saw anyone dying in front of me.
She was gone but her husband, her family .. what they went through , only God knows, but what I observed and know .. that was extremely painful.
Think of the people that love you, or depending on you .. maybe just emotionally .. but they need you ...
dont even talk about it. Its the ugliest crime against humanity

Re: Holding yourself back
because Its just the beginning, I'm not weak and I have yet to see my dreams turning into reality.
Re: Holding yourself back
Your pain and suffering may end by taking your own life, but just imagine for a few minutes what your family will go through, for the rest of their lives. Their lives will become hell. Although you may not realize it at the time, it's really a selfish thing to do. I'm sure you have people around you who genuinely love and care about you. If not for yourself, don't commit suicide for them.
Suicide is an easy resort. It's harder to face the problem head on, deal with it and try and get through it. Nobody knows what you are going through, but talking to someone about it may help.
Re: Holding yourself back
Guys, thank you all for your responses. I considered myself to be a rational thinker but thats only when theres no stormy seas. When you're driven up the wall though this route suddenly becomes a very tempting option.
Aliyish is right- even if in a crude way, its not that easy do the deed. Besides, Lake Ontario is all frozen right now anyway.
