October is Mental Health Awareness Month, and we feel it's the right time to revisit such a sensitive topic-suicidal ideation. We believe that by talking about it openly, we can help others understand the psychology behind it and provide much-needed support. Hopefully, with your help, we can continue sharing digestible and impactful information like this with the world. Together, we can make a real difference in raising awareness and reducing stigma. Thanks for being a part of this important conversation 💚
I have adhd,sucidal thoughts,anxiety, depression,jealousy all the time so I think I fit in to mental awareness month a lot ): (sarcasm) I need mental help
the thing that scares me most based on my experiences with suicidal ideation is that you're absolutely convinced that you've never been more rational in your life
Healthy Gamer has a video on this "why you can't logic your way out of suicide" very interesting. Being more intelligent and logical only makes the problem worse
I heard this quote once "People who are suicidal think they want to die, but that is not true most of the time. They just want to kill a part of themselves that causes the hurt." This is not meant to invalidate any of your feelings, it is just a way of saying that you want to live but are being held back by the one thing that causes so much hurt. As someone who suffers from suicidal ideation, this is the one quote that keeps it in check. I do not want to die, i just want it to stop.
The suicidal people want to sell all of their possessions and be free. Not bogged down by a shitty job and a shitty relationship and a bunch of stuff they don't really want or need
That quote really captures the complexity of suicidal thoughts, highlighting that it's often about wanting the pain to end rather than life itself. Has reflecting on this perspective helped you find ways to cope when those feelings become overwhelming?
Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, steve_porassss. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place. Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He is 59 & has so many mental health issues plus probable CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone. He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD know if it is common for an obsession with violence.

I almost ended my life at 12, i was going to drink Bleach in the bathroom,there wasn't anyone in the house, i stopped in time and asked myself what was i doing, i realized that if i die i couldn't do my favorite things and that people would miss me even if i didn't think they would. Im 13 now and i am grateful i didn't take my life
Non mollare mai, fallo per te stessa, pensa a fare le cose che ti piacciono, anche semplicemente ascoltare musica. Ho 20 anni e soffro di depressione da 3 anni circa, non ho motivo di andare avanti ma lo sto facendo comunque, solo per me stesso, Nella vita può cambiare tutto da un giorno all’altro, sei ancora giovanissima, pensa a quante cose belle ti possono e ti accadranno in futuro, Le apprezzerai ancora di più.✌🏻
Your strength and message are so powerful-thank you for sharing that encouragement. What has helped you the most in your journey to keep fighting and finding hope?
Last time I opened up to someone I trusted, I was driven to a mental facility and felt like I was being treated like a prisoner in said facility. So, for others who have been in a similar situation, it's hard to open back up.
I’m so sorry you had that experience. It’s incredibly painful when trusting someone leads to such a traumatic outcome. Being in a situation where you felt like a prisoner instead of receiving the support you needed can make it so much harder to open up again. It's completely understandable to feel hesitant or guarded after something like that. For anyone who's been through something similar, it’s important to acknowledge that your feelings are valid. Healing from that kind of experience takes time. Finding someone you truly trust and feel safe with can make a world of difference. Have you found any ways that help you cope or begin to trust again, even in small steps?
I have been in a locked unit a few times. On one occasion I was in a group thing. The psychiatrist running it did the usual and the group did as well. Why are you here? In turn each person quietly and guiltily but briefly recounted their most recent event. I'd been through this before and it just didn't want to go through it again so I actually got upset enough to be honest. Shrinks don't usually understand how counterintuitively what they say is internalized. Their goal is to convince you the problem you face is easier to deal with than you think. It's not done maliciously, they are honestly trying to help. They may even give you examples of people they think have far worse problems hoping that perspective will help. For some this may be useful, but for others it makes them feel worse, guilty for drawing attention and wasting time someone else should have. It was at that point the group actually came alive. Everyone, in turn actually looked at eachother and gave a more in depth description of how they felt and what they thought led to it. The shrink wants to convince you you're standing in a pothole, but you feel like you're at the bottom of a well being told you're wasting everyone's time. My point is not that either is correct, it's a matter of perception. In this particular group everyone's coping mechanisms had developed to numb themselves to allow someone else to get more attention. The typical way shrinks want to deal simply convinces this type of person to shut down and pretend their issues don't exist. The logic follows from there. I felt horrible seeing the shrink utterly confused by what I said and how quickly it resonated with everyone else. I smiled enough and they eventually let me out and I've been able to avoid wasting their time again so far.
After 37 years of struggling with this, out of my 50 years, I can honestly say that there isn't always a person to listen, there isn't always a motivation to move forward, and there isn't always a reason to keep trying, despite what the video says. I have exactly one reason to stay and that person will soon be gone. When that happens, I will finally be rid of this existence I've been forced to deal with that I never wanted.
I am an only child and don’t have children myself. Many of my closest friends have died or moved away. One, after 30 years of friendship, stole a significant amount of money from me. Now I’m completely alone and don’t trust anyone. I’m isolated. “You’re never alone “ is a lie.
You've been hurt badly and we live in a world where even empathy feels commercialised, especially in the west. There are servives a GP can recommend for someone to talk to... I would also suggest trying to find a hobby that interests you, that is a irl face to face group activity, like men's shed or sports groups etc... there are good people out there.
And even if that's not what happens, then "help" is either out of your price range/not covered by insurance or is so one-size-fits-all in its approach that it does more harm than good.
I still remember going through my suicidal ideations. It still happens whenever I'm at my lowest emotional and mental point. It gets worse when I find myself thinking "I'm better off disappearing". Not something I ever wish upon another. Edit: I'm autistic.
Things will not get better. Things will continue to spiral down and out of control. But I'm just out here smiling and pretending it's ok like I don't feel constant stress. Doctors are expensive, medicine is expensive, and I can't afford to miss any work
@@artangelus86 things will. i was on the floor crying so hard last month. Thinking that this world would be better without me. And things have gotten better. I've owned up to my mistakes, and I've been happier. I've found ppl who make me happy too. Tell ur self that it won't get better is not going to help at all. It doesn't start off with anti depressants, and paying to feel happy. It starts with you making an effort, and creating your own happiness. Remember....words are powerful.
Survivor here. Had a health scare the other and felt the overwhelming desire to live. It was indescribable. There is hope, Beloved. Declaring your healing. 🙏🔯🙏
Had a heart attack a few years ago. No overwhelming desire to live, I just wondered if it was going to kill me. It didn't, it was fairly minor. An interesting experience though.
Those who live dysfunctional toxic families to barely any friends have less chances of finding such support. Kindness nowadays seem like a trade payment for such things. Positivity is a payment in many eyes.
U just totally described my situation. I do feel suicidal but i cant do that Im afraid. The thought of doing suicide first came to me when i was 13. I can't suicide also i can't make myself better Im a looser. Now i think all those people who called me a looser r actually right. I hate everyone. Its suffocating. I can't die also i don't want to live like this.
It's really sad how kindness and what SHOULD be basic human decency are seriously rare these days. There ARE kind people, they just get drowned and choked out by the louder greed and selfishness of others /: But they're there. Like you, a quiet gem with beauty to be discovered and appreciated by the right people.
With all due respect... As someone who is almost forty, who as a kid had to cut his father from the rope when he killed himself, and who has 'these' thoughts more and more, I must say that quotes such as these: "Suicide does not end the pain, it passes it to someone else." ... makes me livid. And the 'classic' overused Golden Gate Bridge example is a cherry on top. The only thing that is missing is another classic comment like, "Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem!" or "It's the coward's way out." The rest of the video is fine, but those things break it for me. Whenever I hear something like that, it makes me feel even more disconnected from this world and other people. And judging by the people I talk to, I'm not the only one. Please stop putting these "moralizing" quotes in videos related to suicide. They only make suicidal people feel worse 😞.
Yes when they say things like these it hurts more. People think that those who do suicide are stupid and cowards and make fun of them. Maybe those who say these things never felt suicidal or depressed. When they say things like this people just laugh but I feel so sad but i can't say anything I don't want other people to know about my depression because i think they r gonna hurt me more.
Brilliantly said! The content creator obviously means well but they sadly have fallen prey to stereotypical views and beliefs. Suicide is a much more complex issue than most people can even begin to fathom. It’s not something that can be neatly summarised through platitudes and corporate rationalisation. Every individual is different and so are their circumstances. Let us never judge the experiences of others who have made very tragic decisions about their lives.
@@kuhelibiswas-kn7ej: Yup... people don't really want to hear it or believe it until it happens. Every time I tried to talk to my family about it, it either ended up in laughter (because they thought I was joking) or in tears (because 'how can you even consider THAT?! What's wrong with you?!'). I don't believe most people are really interested in the problems of others, even if they claim they are. That said, I don't think people who made this video think like that. I believe they're really trying to help. It just seems they're oblivious that these 'encouraging' quotes can be harmful and manipulative. The article that almost all Golden Gate Bridge survivors regretted jumping is a perfect example. I spent enough time on forums where people who survive suicide attempts lurk to know that the 'I regret doing it; I don't wanna die!' reaction does NOT seem common at all. From what I remember from the posts, the majority of survivors (mostly from botched hanging attempts) said that they DIDN'T regret the attempt but rather that they botched the attempt and that they would try again in the future. That's a 'bit' different from the conclusion presented at the end of the video.
@@Huk256 @Huk256 Yes same happened with me. My family says they love me they care about me but I can't see it or feel it. Maybe they are not aware of themselves, maybe they think they are doing everything okay but they don't feel exactly what I'm feeling. Not once but twice, I tried to talk with them but in the end I was going insane and crying while I could hear them talking and laughing. I cried infront of them but they showed no sympathy they were quite and that day I was going insane. I hit myself infront of them but they did nothing but my father was still sitting, he was angry and said shouting at me " u r an idiot! Yes hit yourself idiot!!" My mother was also angry and said " is she out of her mind or what?! R u possessed by a ghost? Why r u acting like this! She is crazy" " Go to a mental hospital " "r u possessed by ghost!!" But they never stopped me or hug me or showed a little bit of sympathy or affection. They just sit or stood still where they were and scolded me, showed how much annoying I was but never showed how much they are concerned that I was hitting myself. They told me furiously to stop crying while I was crying they mocked me for crying as if I am overdramatic or something and my mother hit me ((when I was not even crying infront of them but in my room but she won't let me close the door so she can come inside just to beat me or say things like " u r possessed by ghost" definitely they don't believe in ghost or stuff like that they are well educated)) Idk how they view me!!! That day I felt so much pain and I was really going insane idk how to describe what felt that day, it was horrible. The second time I again try to talk with them same thing happened that day I tried to kill myself but I was so afraid I couldn't. Sorry of this long comment
Loneliness has made me regretably and unfortunately, think about ending it, but I am blessed to have the most emotionally intellegent friend, who has helped more than I could have ever hoped for. She continues to support me and I her. We have promised one another to stay besties till the bitter end. I love her and consider her family. I couldn't have wished for a better friend in life
After so many failures , fighting depression for years (still recovering )lost all friends, social life .still i dont know but i feel my time will come soon i just have to fight for now
All my life since 12 i have been suicidal. Before 12 I was very depressed. Grew up extremely poor with many times nothing to eat. Would go to bed with maybe a can of coke. Mom did the best she could. She didn’t drive and we lived good distance from town. And my dad was only around sometimes and my stepdad same. Two grown men and they were taken care by their parents , while my brother and I would suffer. Those were very dark times. My mom committed suicide last year at the age of 70. I was very very close to her. My brother had with our dad after pointing a gun at mom when he was about 12 years old. He had the pistol to her head and I was begging him to not pull the trigger. Fast forward to 2023. When mom took her life she did it directly in front of me. That permanently altered my whole being My brother doesn’t talk to me anymore and have no friends and no family. My family have all died. There is nothing to live anymore and no future. I struggle one day at a time. I’m 55 almost 56 years old and no family. So yeah if I pass on there isn’t going to be anyone remember me.
But now there is someone. By putting out your story, someone knows. I'm very good at remembering. It doesn't have to be someone blood related to remember.
This video brings me to tears 😢 I’ve been putting off seeking help for my ideations and behaviors because of commitments I’ve made with people. I don’t want to disappoint so i shove everything in a box until later
Even if you will suppress please try to make yourself feel better there are a lot of self treatments for these kind of things like meditation or finding something you really enjoy, though obviously I would still recommend telling people
Sometimes, you've got to put yourself first. I know this is easy to say, but not so easy to do. One of the things I'm trying to learn in therapy, is how to forgive myself in addition to learning how to love myself. Procrastination is as symptom of depression and Passive SI. For your own sake, please try to get yourself some help. Not for my sake, friends sake, or even family's sake. For your OWN sake.
Maybe when those commitments pay off and maybe when you’ve improved those people lives, maybe then you’ll find valuable and purpose where there was none and finally you’ll get rid of that box entirely.
Samee just so I could learn why I have Bpd and severe depression cuz like it's tough being a 14year old w all this stuff maybe if I become a child psychologist I'll heal my inner kid
I’m unsure why TH-cam I sending notifications for your videos days/weeks later after they’ve been posted, but the timing of receiving it is spot on because I feel so alone right now. I’m tackling struggle after struggle with no support from anyone it’s triggering passive suicidal ideation. I’ve been in therapy and support workshops for 2 almost 3 years which has helped tremendously, but with so many things happening at once I feel overwhelmed.
@@prettypuppy6752 I’m not autistic and I wish people would stop assuming it’s a possibility just because I detail certain symptoms experienced as a result of trauma or specific hardships I’m handling. Yes, I’m neurodivergent, but not everything is because of autism.
This shows up right as i just havent been feeling it so much lately, i know i always dont want to be here and always have for the longest, ive stayed here just hoping to see better days and it feels like its just so far away no matter how much ive been trying but i continue trying my hardest. Im just very tired.
Please don't give up, you matter! I've had really bad days too. Wouldn't be saying all this if I didn't know where you were coming from. No matter how hard things get, try to look for at least one positive thing that happened to you in the day. Then the next day try to find two things. Gradually keep increasing it. This can help and be very therapeutic.
Maybe the place you're at right now is dragging you down? I don't know your circumstances, but I found my moving away and subsequent freedom quite healing. Doesn't mean I never have any rough spots, I do. I just tend to ignore mean intrusive thoughts and ask myself if I really wanna feel them. Feel free to talk to me,it's too early to give up ;)
I’m studying psychology, soon to be finished with my PhD. This video is why I chose this field of study. I understand the feelings of worthlessness and hopelessness and how it can be overwhelming 😢Praying for all those experiencing heavy and dark thoughts! ❤🙏🏽🌹
40+ years of these thoughts (active for the first 15 of those, then passive). Stress relief. Knowing that there is an alternative to having to be alive makes it easier to make it through the day.
whenever I feel svicidal I always watch psych2Go videos, not only their videos help but also the comments so thank you very much people I never met who are more caring
On these sorts of videos, the comments always remind me that even though it may feel like it, i am not alone. I have never met these people but they are going through or have gone through similar things. Thank you so much to all of the caring people here, for making me feel loved.
I’ve never felt more alone in my life than I do right now. It somehow both hurts my heart and gives me some hope knowing strangers care about me without actually knowing me. I wish those I showed support to, supported me too when I need them the most.
I’m struggling to keep my 12 year old daughter alive who just doesn’t want to be here anymore after being bullied in school for years, it takes a toll. I am scared, it’s a struggle. I pray for everyone here, may God help us all find some peace of mind 🙏
Never leave her alone. Always try to talk to her and listen to her attentively. Approach to her softly. Dont force her or do anything hurtful like my parents did. And same thing happened to me at school but no one could do anything. I should have fight back and be strong i regret not doing anything and my parents are harsh .. they never really protected me and made me strong.
I am praying for her ❤🙏. SHE IS STRONG AND SHE WILL OVERCOME THIS SOON. SHE WILL LIVE A HAPPY LIFE AND ALL HER BULLIES WILL SUFFER, THEY WILL GO TO HELL!
I hope your daughter gets better. I am 15 and get bullied and try to kill myself a lot. I want to be able to give you advice but I don’t have any. God bless you and your child.
I committed yesterday, said my goodbye to my friends (mind you they were at school), i thought this time id finally be free from the shit life is throwing at me. Then, out of nowhere, my best friend ran in the heavy rain, from our school to my house, she broke in and found me cutting my wrist. My other best friend was calling and texting me through the whole scenario, telling me to stay for them and for everyone that cares about me. I didnt realize that people cared about me, just after the attempt I did. Im glad that i get to live another day because of my friends, i get to listen to the new songs my favorite artists made because of them, i get to draw and animate another day because of them, i get to hug my siblings and my friends once again. The last part of the video was true, they didnt want to die, they just wanted to way to get out. I regret what I did yesterday, seeing the way my best friend cried in front of me in the rain. im at a local hospital rn, surviving. God really sent angels to save me
This story brought me to tears your friend loves you very much if they are determined enough to do that I doubt that any of my friends would do that and I’m sure they are so glad that you are safe now. I hope your mental health improves. Sincerely from Caledonian railway Number 903
As a young child, I had several suicidal ideations, I personally think it started when I was 6 years old. When I was 6, my older siblings told me that they wished I wasn't their sister and that I just had died instead, I think what they said is what started my ideas of suicide. I was a sensitive child and I still am, I couldn't handle yelling, criticism or upsetting someone, I was a massive people pleaser to everyone so when people got angry at me, I started wanting to die. But those thoughts often faded in and out thanks to the fact that I had a lot of friends but now I can't say the same anymore. As of now I still think of suicide but I never do any self harm neither do I try killing myself, it's more like one way of comforting me when I'm sad but there's also a massive factor on why I haven't killed myself, and that's the fact I'm scared of death. If I wasn't scared of death I probably would have killed myself along time a go, and now I don't even have that much friends to comfort me and I most definitely do not trust my parents since they only make my suicidal thoughts worse. To ignore my suicidal thoughts I've often tried to just ignore it or try to distract myself with something else like academics.
I had a friend exactly like how you’re describing yourself. We had a pretty bad fallout and are no longer friends. We had met online through a game and exchanged discord and phone numbers. One night she told me her temperature was low and it wouldn’t stop going lower and lower. I thought she was going to die of hypothermia. (Her temp got down below 60 degrees) she lived in an abusive household with mean older siblings and awful parents. I loved her with all my heart and was relieved to see she had survived the night but also quite upset as she worried me a lot and made me begin to think of life without her which upset me more. But I loved her. She just didn’t love me the same way. It was a shame how we fell out, but it was necessary. I’m glad you’re still here as well. I don’t know you and at this time would not like to get to know you, but I’m sure you’re a wonderful person and I can assure you that you are loved whether you know it or not.
Whenever the "psychache" gets too much for me to handle and I start thinking about how to end it all, I force myself to consider what being dead REALLY means: Not just the pain stopping, but EVERYTHING stopping. No more breathing, no more heartbeat, no more feeling, no more thinking. No waking up and feeling better, no waking up at all. Not even being aware enough to witness eternal darkness, just being switched off and never being switched on again. Gone forever. I defeat suicidal ideation by being more afraid of being dead.
But that means it didnt really get too much for you to handle and you handled it quite good and thats cool but if someone really experience that being aware or even just existing is just an endless pain and suffering, to them thinking about anything good that could come which is basically also what i use to counter my ideation that i only got one chance and this chance is bound to end anyways so why not bear some pain to see how life unflods is just not an option anymore for someone who truly only experience pain and suffering that same argument that this one chance is bound to end anyways becomes the reason for the ideation that it may as well end now, that you have seen what life has to offer and you want no part in it.
I'm the same but when it got really bad this didn't help anymore. Turns out my brain malfunctions and I absolutely need medication. Without medication I wasn't *able* to ever feel peace of mind, and I only realized that at 30 something after lots of therapy and several attempts. What a game changer a little tweaking of hormones can be...
Too afraid to actually do the final solution. But, would be fine with disappearing or just ceasing to exist. Death is not the scariest thing in life. Living can be much scarier. This hits hard: Unwanted, Unseen, Unheard, Unsupported. A lifetime of this just wears a person down.
Life can feel so dark and hopeless at times but all you need is a little light. That one friend or memory that walks with you. Not everyone has that yet but there‘s so much more time to experience it if one chooses to live. Don‘t give up. Great video
The day I take my life I know it won’t hurt anyone so I am very happy to know that I don’t matter to anyone. I hate when people say it is going to be ok as if ok is a good quality of life. I know that I have no value to anyone but they believe I should stay alive all for the sake of being alive. Nothing I do works no matter what it is. I have been striving for years even trying different things yet I keep failing. I take antidepressants and have gone to therapy yet I am still struggling. Having been diagnosed with ADHD and Autism doesn’t make my depression any better. So it is only a matter of time before I end it all.
Hang in there! One day at a time! Stop thinking of yourself and help someone else live, do volunteer work, feed the homeless, this world is in bad shape someone could use your help!
@@debralattimore9548 If you were to walk around Vegas with my picture and show it to many homeless people and other people, they would say, oh!!!! That guy comes to feed us, sit with us, and talks with us for a few hours. Others will say, that guy always takes out the time to help me and is always there for me. Others will say, he has such a kind heart because whenever I need someone to talk to, he is there. When it is my turn for help, needing someone to talk to, celebrate graduations, birthdays, etc, I have NO ONE. So, there isn’t anything a human can say about me helping others because that has been my storyline for years.
My friend struggles with suicidal thoughts, I think I help her change it. I tell her it isn’t worth it and that I’m here for her. Psych2Go, thank you. Your amazing and make me feel more fit in. Sometimes I wonder if I have a purpose but I always think about people I love and not wanting them to feel the pain I have.
I almost committed suicide when i was 17 bc i was struggling with when i was R@ped by my best friend that i basically trusted with my life and my parents knew but never helped me and i couldn't deal with the nightmares and the panic attacks and nobody was answering my emails (the only way to communicate with my friends and nephew at the time) and i was about to go into the bathroom and overdose on my allergy pills and something in the back of my head kept telling me to look at my computer and i kept ignoring it till i was in the hallway going to the bathroom and i finally listened and opened my computer and saw an email from one of my friends and my nephew and from then on i knew they saved my life and i even told them i thanked them sadly i turned to SH shortly after and I'm struggling to get clean and i still deal with suicidal thoughts but i always think of my nephew and what he would do if i was gone and and now knowing my grandma is up in heaven i think of how sad she would be to see me in heaven before my time
Thank you Psych2Go for always doing your best to help other people, asking for their opinions on future videos and being the reason why many people haven't given up yet.❤❤
I am currently reading Van der Kolk "The Body Keeps the score" discovering and facing root causes of emotional pain has been eye opening for me, I found this video a poor effort to cover the topic as it does not mention the causes as much as it is trying to address / treat symptoms. Warning, the book is a difficult read for its complications language / detailed medical journals reports style and also its ability to bring up old stressors / pain, but also very enlightening. Gabor Mate is also an amazing resource on youtube, and his books.
A positive message about hope and the possibility of recovery is vital, reminding viewers that they are not alone and that there is light at the end of the tunnel
I have been experiencing an overwhelming sense of fatigue, coupled with personal issues, sleepless nights, and an unfortunate streak of bad luck, for the past several months. It feels as though I can no longer find joy or pleasure in the things I once enjoyed. Even my 'friends' seem to contribute to my sense of alienation. Lately, I feel as though I just can't take it anymore..
You guys are beyond amazing! You've probably helped a countless number of people from taking that final and fatal action! I can only speak for myself, I experience things that are really beyond explanation, so I won't bother to even try! I just wanted to state that I have no idea how my life is going to turn out, but I will keep at it until my true relief and peace 🕊️ arrive! I hope I can endure until I find my way out! Thanks for everything that you do Amanda and the rest of the Psych2Go staff! One day maybe there'll be a true and definitive cure for all these sinister and enigmatic challenges, and we can all finally truly enjoy life! Be safe and take care! Bye!
I never want to wake up i want to be in a dream where im still young and playing *happy* even though i feel like im dramatic sometimes i feel its not dramatic but just.. *unwanted unworthy of life* nothing will change it
@AbrarMmoo I'm sorry. But please know you are worthy of life, and you're not unwanted. Sometimes I feel that way too but that's just my depression telling me lies.
I'm also suffering from ADHD, OCD, BIPOLAR DISORDER, ANXIETY and last one DEPRESSION since 3 years and now I'm of 15 years. It's very difficult to handle the situation and control emotions. Today i was thinking of commit suicide because no one values me, but recently I saw this video, it encouraged me to go ahead in my path of life.😊 . . . THANKS A LOT DEAR ELDER SISTER ❤❤❤
In Germany, you often wait up to 12 months for an appointment with a psychologist. In theory, we have enough therapists, but too few can be covered by health insurance. The death of a person is much cheaper for health insurance than providing therapy.
When I was suicidal it was more due to being excited about the afterlife than actually hating this current life. Eventually I came to the realization that since I will die someday anyways, there’s no reason to rush it. Might as well try to live a decent life in this illusory reality.
I definitely feel the trapped in a cage feeling where everything feels hopeless from failure after failure to move forward in life to a better happier place, both in my own life, and in the wider world... I'm glad I have my loved ones like my friends and family cause they're the reason I'm even still around.
I fear not enough people click onto a video like this. I'm here to say sometimes I too no longer want to exist. But I know that's not a solution. Prayer is the main thing that keeps me grounded. I know God hears me. I'm worried about those who might be afraid to watch this video or even comment. As this video says. Not talking about it can make those feelings worse. So please to anyone who reads this don't be afraid to express yourself here. To quote the video "there's always someone who will listen."
I’ve just stopped caring. I can’t even remember the last time anything mattered to me. I don’t even know why I still pretend to be okay or normal or even continue each day. I know it may sound like it, but im not even sad anymore, I just feel nothing. I could die in s minute, and I’d be perfectly fine with that. It was just meant to be I guess, or something. I could live and suffer for another year, and it still wouldn’t matter, same end result, just more pain. I don’t care about dying or living. I’ve been broken for so long that I can’t even imagine myself differently in my dreams and fantasies anymore. Maybe this is just who I am now, maybe one day I can learn to stop hating myself, and lose all care to even hate.
I have had this and I live in a home of no support. My teacher and my dog are the only one's I'm still living for. Sadly I've still felt myself slipping away. I don't greet the teacher with a smile every time anymore. I still care about him and I know he still cares about me. It's just...the numbness. It's growing.
One time my friends pressured me to tell them about my suicidal thoughts and attempts and I did then they all said I was a horrible person and just doing it for attention when all I wanted was for them to leave it. They betrayed me after everything I’ve done for them.
Those videos are always nice to watch but it still doesn't change that nothing will change, no one cares and if you are lonely not it will probably stay that way... I wish it weren't like that but that's life.
Hey, if your reading this just please. Please talk to someone. I know its scary to talk to others but people can fix everything, just make sure they are trustworthy. They say only a few people will come through your life which will truly stay with you, find those people.
Personal experience -People do not fix things for you. Yeah you are lucky if you find one person that gives a damn, but that isn't enough for most of us
Like a genuine question, how do you find ‘your people’ I’m not even sure if any one of us even have that truly? I say this because despite therapy, family and friends things die or either we grow out of?
@@zvezda_novah122 If I'm being honest its different for everyone, I suppose I worded it weirdly but I just mean find people who care about you. People really like to be negative when it comes to stuff like this and say people like that don't exist. Not every friendship you think is the one is going to be the one. I can assure you, no matter how hopeless it may seem you will always have someone who will truly care about you no matter what. If it doesn't seem like that at the moment, you need to find that person. Whether its working towards a goal and seeing who you meet along the way or even just finding something that makes you happy and doing it with others.
I've come to treat suicide not as a tragedy, but as a right. A basic human right. If a person wants to die, they should be able to do that without shame. I have a pen-friend who is very suicidal, and I neither encourage or discourage him. I try counseling him when I feel like he needs it, but if he wants to do the thing - it's his right, his choice. I myself am also suicidal. Though in my case I don't actively want to die, rather it's situational. Sometimes I'm laughing and enjoying the moment, other times I feel like a total failure of a person, unable to do anything, a waste of space. I'm not even living - I'm just existing, going on autopilot without any purpose. I hate myself. I don't actively try to end myself, because I'm a spineless coward, and because I'm worried about how it would affect my family. But I do often fantasize about falling asleep one day and never waking up.
This video hits home to me. Not only that I'm a pessimistic person but I'm also defenseless when I am alone. I always fear for the worse everyday and I feel like that suicide is the answer 😢. Due to my past traumas in my life, I'm always scared that things will never be right, so I think about just simply end it all. But then, I've just realized that I don't want to die, I just wanted the pain and suffering to end. So thanks for the video, Psych2Go. I really needed it. Edit: I'm also schizoaffective bipolar.
The fact that this video gets uploaded and shows up on my algorythm, just as i entered one of the baddest episodes of my life, and just had thoughts of suicide a few hours ago, doesn't feel like a coincodence... I mean... it's not like i want to die in any ways, may it be suicide or a fatal car crash or something like that. It's more like... if had a button that would turn this world into a version of itself in that i never existed, i would press it. No pain, no grief for others, everyone that ever knew me, couldn't remember me anymore... this truly sounds like a dream to me... just snapping out of it, without making anyone sad or maybe disappointet... Holy shit... i never thought talking about this can bring that much relieve, even thou it's just writing... I mean... i even stopped crying while writing the last few lines... And if you stayed till this one... please remember that there is always someone that likes or even loves you. You are not alone.
Thank you for sharing such a vulnerable and honest message. It's incredible how writing out our feelings can sometimes bring relief and clarity. We hope that expressing yourself has provided some comfort, and we want you to know that your words will resonate with others going through something similar. Have you ever considered what small step could help bring a little more peace to your day?
Unfortunately nothing can stop the 'psychache' when you're trapped in a house, forced to be a caretaker, nurse, maid, personal shopper, chef, etc, for one narcissist (my father) and one woman who keeps talking about wanting to die (my mother). TBH, the thought of never having to wake up again sounds more like a release than a punishment.
I’ve had them since I was 14. I’m 24 now turning 25 next year and it’s been hard sometimes. What has helped me is telling myself “see how you feel in the morning. If you feel the same way then do it” The next morning, everytime yeah I’m still down and depressed, but I’m not stuck in a constant loop thinking I should end it all to end my pain or psychache as the video calls it.
Been suffering from PSI for a couple of decades. Got medication for depression and thought more clearly and logically about it, and found that I was probably right. Had chest pains or sharp headaches and thought, "please let this be it!" Friends and family tell me to talk to someone else if I mention anything close to emotional struggles, so I just dont say anything anymore. Every night, I pray that i dont wake up. I don't want to give up, so I won't do it myself (yet). But I doubt I would make any effort to "save" myself if something finally happens. 🤞
I remember the times I had passive suicidal ideation with immense sadness. It felt like I was jumping back and forth between willingness to end myself and sense of guilt for wanting to discard my life like that. All because I still had many things to lose and those who'd suffer from this decision. You won't believe what was the catalyst of me curing from this state of mind. I got into a particularly terrible situation (can describe it if anyone's interested) when the psychache didn't stop until I fell asleep. I felt like the earth had disappeared from under my feet. But the very next day I realized that if I resorted to my typical patterns of self-pitying/hatred, I'd feel much worse that I had ever before. I still can't fully comprehend how much I've changed over the last several months, but I've never felt better. Don't lose hope. Maybe find an inspirational person who's endured so many hardships, but still stayed alive, fought back and emerged victorious. One such person for me is Eminem. Just know that one day you will get through all of this and live to tell about how you went to your own kind of hell and back. Your story will be inspiring to those around you.
It's really strange because i can think about suicide and think it would likely be the best choice. Then, one day you start skidding on ice and think you might crash and die and all you can think is....i don't REALLY want to die!! Yet, when you go back to your everyday life, the feelings of wanting to die once again seem to overpower everything.
No matter how much I struggled before I have never ever been suicidal…….but this year……I experienced something horrifying…..all my repressed memories came back….all me hidden wounds reopened…and I’ve been experiencing brutal flashbacks EVERY…SINGLE…DAY that passes…I literally hear my dad’s angry shouts in my mind every single day..even in my happy moments….every small thing reminds me of my childhood even random objects….this year…for the very first time I experienced suicidal thoughts and still have them to this very moment btw…..and these thoughts didn’t come up randomly like once a week or once a month….they popped in my head EVERY SINGLE DAY….lately I take forever to fall asleep and literally the only phrases that repeat in my head are just “KILL ME KILL ME JUST KILL ME I WANT TI BANG MY HEAD THROUGH THE WALL UNTIL I BLEED” imagine sitting with such thoughts at night for FIVE HOURS I’m tired….I’m just tired of everything….all the memories I already remember aren’t even enough..theirs still more memories, more pain…more wounds waiting to reopen..I’m just exhausted I’ll never rest I wish my memories would just be wiped out I rather have dementia and forget everything than live with such weight on my shoulders I want to rest forever….
I've had suicidal ideations since I was 12... I turn 30 next month thankfully I have my best friend as my support anchor. I won't commit suicide but my thoughts drift more towards second hand suicide
Me too. But i don't have anyone emotionally available for me. I think everyone hates me since i was born. I never had any supportive person. No one likes me. I feel depressed all the time.
I am currently writing my finals. Its the end of my high school years and i have failed most of my exams. I have spent the past two years fighting depression alone and I am on the verge of giving up to tell the truth my life has never amounted to anything and will never amount to anything. I wanna cry but nothing no tears will come out. The overwhelming pain in my chest is too much to bear.
0:48 I’m going to make it clear that I don’t want to wake up in the morning because I want to sleep in. Just trying to get that known. But still it is a big issue so if anyone sees this comment should seek help if they get ideas of harming themselves.
Sometimes the world pushing some to feel this way daily. Not everyone can get or be provided therapy. If not it is always medication is the final excuse. There is many who have resistant medication kind. So many have zero loved ones who could care less for the struggles they face with these feelings.
Yes. This videos do not help. Cuz the real life people are the devil here they are cruel. How can anyone live a healthy life when people in this world is so disgusting?
@@Amanda2222-g8dit’s very very hard to live amongst people who have little to no empathy… especially when they are your immediate family members. We have to try to separate ourselves from toxic relationships and learn how to be alone without becoming lonely. It’s a very hard road to travel but it is worth it. God is with us always and we just have to trust that He is in control and is directing our lives for our own good. I say this as someone whose whole family of origin has abandoned them less than 2 years after surviving aggressive breast cancer. Everyday I have to push myself hard to keep on going and to not give up.
@@Amanda2222-g8d though I do agree with you to an extent not everyone is like this and to assume you. You maybe have an antisocial disorder to severe trust issues. Grouping all people like this isn't right either but I won't deny it is the majority of the general public.
@@keip4568 Most people are like this! Wherever I went or go people always acted rude with me even if I don't interact with them. I'm introverted and like u said ig I have too much trust issues but I never harmed anyone verbally or physically still people for some reason hated me since childhood. My family, relatives, so-called friends, classmates, even strangers whom I had just met, men women older people younger people everyone hurt me since childhood. As it happens constantly till I grew up I became more and more sensitive to others even their small words hurt me but in childhood I cried felt hurt but now I only feel anger... Sometimes I think now whenever someone's gonna say a little bad things about me I want to explode and hit them or do something violent maybe then I can feel peaceful. Especially my classmates. But when the time comes I feel so weak inside also sad.
Even tho ppl say things will get better they never really do instead it just keeps getting worse. The situation it turning so much worse that slowly I'm losing my control over it idk how long I can take it
I clicked with the full intention of learning. Did not expect to cry. I had battled with all that and so much more for 20 years and finally had a moment where to test it out I made an attempt but decided that if it was prolonged I would end up making a serious attempt but it felt like what has been mentioned in the video. However, made a decision to not go over the edge and I do not know how but can not let it get that worse. Helplines were not much of a help. So I reached out to the family but was met with criticism from loved ones and taunts. No one saw how I pulled myself out from the dark place alone. To this date figuring everything out myself with everyone leaving and still in the middle of the war but I have not given up on working on myself and the situation. It is extremely hard when you are not even allowed to heal and even your screams for help are being negated and no explanation was enough. But I am trying and to others, I am not doing much but to me, I know I am, and I do not allow anyone to gaslight this part. I am a mental and emotional health officer and ever since childhood, I have been the kind of person anyone can talk to, trust, and feel comfortable around and that is because of all the trauma I have faced. I was able to understand people from all walks of life. My intuition power and emotional intelligence increased many folds. What if one day I might find peace as well.
I have a suicidal friend thats 13, we'll call her Ann. Soo Ann already tried suicide at least 10 times in 2-3 years, but everytime she nearly ended it, she remembered how much me and another friend would have missed her. Ann told me that one of the only things that help her alive are I, that other friend and mha. Ann also LOVES posters, and shes lesbian (has a crush on her straight friend). Her parents hate her posters and are homophobic.. A therapist her parents called (not for her personally) diagnosed Ann with severe depression and anxiety. Ann really trusted the therapist and told her everything bad in her life, but later the therapist betrayed her. And so did her aunt. Lately Ann's parents were fighting daily, and today her mom sas shes got enough of Anns ignorance and left "forever" (i dont belive shell never come back).. Oh and did i mention her parents see Ann as an extension of themselves (aka toxic parents)? Oh and with Anns sister, they are the best parents ever! And Ann daydreams basically ALL THE TIME. We've already called to child support line and they sad to book a session, but how can Ann book a session without her parents knowing when they watch every move of hers?? I just wanted some help cuz im 13 too and the other friend is also 13 and i just sometimes daydream abt an universe where Ann would have a normal life. Can someone give me advice??
Do you have a trusted adult you can tell all of this? Maybe a teacher in your school? As far as I know teachers can also reach a CPS. Also, I believe, if multiple people would report to CPS about the same situation, it will force them to do something. Multiple suicidal attempts of a child seems like a legitimate reason.
thx for you response but the situation is just soo complicated. There is no trusted adult, thats why i came here. Her parents just like to "hang out" with other teachers and hear all the latest tea. Thats why at least i dont trust teachers that much (they also spelled tea abt me so..), so teachers arent a solution either. And by Ann not being able to get help from Child support line i meant she cant book a therapy session by herself. But still, those adults must be pretty dump for thinking a child could just randomly book a session by herself without her parents knowing. Well Tysmm for careing ❤❤
If you’re not happy where you are right now, imagine yourself having less in life (a worse childhood, poorer background, less achievements, slower life compared to “others”) but still being able to find a will to live for tomorrow. You know that u can make a better future for yourself. A life where you feel stable & comfortable. Happiness can be found all around us big or small, we just have to learn how to seek&feel them every Single day. No matter what life u have u deserve to smile abt one thing each day.
Idk how I ended up at this point. But a combination of things (I presume were both being bored from having nothing to do & stuff not feeling fun anymore+adhd+feeling sick+maybe even a dark thought if my future) have led me into a dark spot. Went down a rabbit hole of doing stuff like researching why stuff happens to me or just ranting messages to a safe spot like this one. I absolutely have experienced the whole “having thought of it but not actually doing it” & the reminder of regretting to attempt it from people that have tried or the thought of the pain just being passed on is the small thread that still keeps me in it. I’ve been in an episode & haven’t experienced any joy besides a small chuckle from a video or two but I do feel like I’m being grounded again after today from watching informational videos like this & from that rant
I've struggled with Passive SI for probably about 40 years now. When I was in either my late 20's or early 30's (I am now 56), I was diagnosed with PTSD and hereditary depression. I was molested as a kid by my older half sister, and I've had nothing but bad luck with women. There are times where I get to thinking, "eh, what's the point?" what I call "Dark Thoughts." I've been taking meds since I was diagnosed and am in therapy. After all these years, I get tired of these thoughts and am taking slow steps to change them, but it is hard. I think what those of us who have Passive SI need to learn is, 1) to forgive ourselves, 2) learn to love ourselves, and 3) try to remember that this world would be a worse place without you.
Three months ago, my sister took her own life during a depressive episode. She had been on sick leave for just one week. During that time, we took her into our home so she wouldn’t be alone. She never told us how badly she was truly feeling. I wish she had opened up to us. We are devastated, and we miss her so much. If you are struggling with thoughts of suicide, please reach out to someone-family, friends, or helplines. Help is available, and people are willing to support you. You matter. Depression can create these terrible thoughts, but with professional help, they can be overcome. Please don’t make a permanent decision for what may be a temporary illness.
@@BlackKittyCat99 Sometimes I wonder if the only reason we are not is we don't support large sweeping changes to society. Since that's what really benefits the ruling class.
@@anthonywalker6268 Can you pls explain what you mean? I’m on (prescription) Triazolam right now so I’m pretty tired and a little bit slow lol. But that sounds like an interesting idea I could understand when I wake up lol
Hey @Psych2go could you do a video about empathy burnout and setting boundaries please? I saw a community post from you about this, and I rarely find content about it out there. Specifically, I want to know how to handle boundaries and burnout when caring for someone who isn't able to reciprocate as much due to their issues. Where it's not their fault, but is the fault of their illness. I believe that setting expectations and boundaries appropriately is important when someone you care for is going through a mental health disorder. This enables us to care for them and us, without leading to situations of anger caused by burnout, and then blaming the already affected person because we don't know enough. Safe ways to work through our emotions, constructively letting the frustration go, compassion and understanding, taking care of ourselves and setting our own life apart, these are all important values everyone should know.
October is Mental Health Awareness Month, and we feel it's the right time to revisit such a sensitive topic-suicidal ideation. We believe that by talking about it openly, we can help others understand the psychology behind it and provide much-needed support. Hopefully, with your help, we can continue sharing digestible and impactful information like this with the world. Together, we can make a real difference in raising awareness and reducing stigma. Thanks for being a part of this important conversation 💚
Why is there 8 days comments when the video was posted 10 minutes ago? TIME TRAVLERRRRR! 😨
Thank you for spreading awareness
I have adhd,sucidal thoughts,anxiety, depression,jealousy all the time so I think I fit in to mental awareness month a lot ): (sarcasm) I need mental help
I'm in therapy now
It was my birthday yesterday
the thing that scares me most based on my experiences with suicidal ideation is that you're absolutely convinced that you've never been more rational in your life
I unfortunately know the feeling.
ikr i don't have depression... i just have this :(
Healthy Gamer has a video on this "why you can't logic your way out of suicide" very interesting. Being more intelligent and logical only makes the problem worse
@@viobliterator yup
@@RichardHartl I have seen that vid and it's so true
I heard this quote once "People who are suicidal think they want to die, but that is not true most of the time. They just want to kill a part of themselves that causes the hurt." This is not meant to invalidate any of your feelings, it is just a way of saying that you want to live but are being held back by the one thing that causes so much hurt.
As someone who suffers from suicidal ideation, this is the one quote that keeps it in check. I do not want to die, i just want it to stop.
Yes… for the pain and suffering to end… an escape from the pain inside our head and the loneliness of being trapped inside your head.
If that part that causes so much hurt cant be changed ever, then thats a problem
The suicidal people want to sell all of their possessions and be free. Not bogged down by a shitty job and a shitty relationship and a bunch of stuff they don't really want or need
@@artangelus86 and it turns out that they create those problems for themselves. Playing the victim is a peice of cake 🙈
That quote really captures the complexity of suicidal thoughts, highlighting that it's often about wanting the pain to end rather than life itself. Has reflecting on this perspective helped you find ways to cope when those feelings become overwhelming?
Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, steve_porassss. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place.
Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He is 59 & has so many mental health issues plus probable CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac.

Please.. as someone who has survived this.. always keep fighting, there is help and hope.
Your strength and message are so powerful-thank you for sharing that encouragement. What has helped you the most in your journey to keep fighting and finding hope?
Last time I opened up to someone I trusted, I was driven to a mental facility and felt like I was being treated like a prisoner in said facility. So, for others who have been in a similar situation, it's hard to open back up.
I’m so sorry you had that experience. It’s incredibly painful when trusting someone leads to such a traumatic outcome. Being in a situation where you felt like a prisoner instead of receiving the support you needed can make it so much harder to open up again. It's completely understandable to feel hesitant or guarded after something like that.
For anyone who's been through something similar, it’s important to acknowledge that your feelings are valid. Healing from that kind of experience takes time. Finding someone you truly trust and feel safe with can make a world of difference. Have you found any ways that help you cope or begin to trust again, even in small steps?
I have been in a locked unit a few times. On one occasion I was in a group thing. The psychiatrist running it did the usual and the group did as well. Why are you here?
In turn each person quietly and guiltily but briefly recounted their most recent event. I'd been through this before and it just didn't want to go through it again so I actually got upset enough to be honest. Shrinks don't usually understand how counterintuitively what they say is internalized. Their goal is to convince you the problem you face is easier to deal with than you think. It's not done maliciously, they are honestly trying to help. They may even give you examples of people they think have far worse problems hoping that perspective will help. For some this may be useful, but for others it makes them feel worse, guilty for drawing attention and wasting time someone else should have.
It was at that point the group actually came alive. Everyone, in turn actually looked at eachother and gave a more in depth description of how they felt and what they thought led to it. The shrink wants to convince you you're standing in a pothole, but you feel like you're at the bottom of a well being told you're wasting everyone's time. My point is not that either is correct, it's a matter of perception. In this particular group everyone's coping mechanisms had developed to numb themselves to allow someone else to get more attention. The typical way shrinks want to deal simply convinces this type of person to shut down and pretend their issues don't exist. The logic follows from there.
I felt horrible seeing the shrink utterly confused by what I said and how quickly it resonated with everyone else. I smiled enough and they eventually let me out and I've been able to avoid wasting their time again so far.
After 37 years of struggling with this, out of my 50 years, I can honestly say that there isn't always a person to listen, there isn't always a motivation to move forward, and there isn't always a reason to keep trying, despite what the video says. I have exactly one reason to stay and that person will soon be gone. When that happens, I will finally be rid of this existence I've been forced to deal with that I never wanted.
Funny thing is, the suicidal ideations are what keeps away the "entrapment" feelings, for no matter how bad it gets, I know there's always a way out.
I am an only child and don’t have children myself. Many of my closest friends have died or moved away. One, after 30 years of friendship, stole a significant amount of money from me. Now I’m completely alone and don’t trust anyone. I’m isolated. “You’re never alone “ is a lie.
💔💔❤️❤️❤️
You've been hurt badly and we live in a world where even empathy feels commercialised, especially in the west. There are servives a GP can recommend for someone to talk to...
I would also suggest trying to find a hobby that interests you, that is a irl face to face group activity, like men's shed or sports groups etc... there are good people out there.
@@Sanguinarius9999 Feigning empathy is the latest "thing". I get you teddyroon.
You feel u r alone? I have time to listen you. You can contact me
God is with us all
The problem with seeking help is the part where they lock you away in a facility somewhere and put you further in debt and exacerbate your problems
TRUTH! Why isn't anyone else talking about this in the comment section??
And even if that's not what happens, then "help" is either out of your price range/not covered by insurance or is so one-size-fits-all in its approach that it does more harm than good.
Preach 👏
Is it America again?
I still remember going through my suicidal ideations. It still happens whenever I'm at my lowest emotional and mental point. It gets worse when I find myself thinking "I'm better off disappearing". Not something I ever wish upon another.
Edit: I'm autistic.
I feel for you. I share your pain. I am autistic too
who ever is going thur something like this....im really sorry, and i promise things will get better, i love you all 🤍🤍
Things will not get better. Things will continue to spiral down and out of control. But I'm just out here smiling and pretending it's ok like I don't feel constant stress. Doctors are expensive, medicine is expensive, and I can't afford to miss any work
@@artangelus86 things will. i was on the floor crying so hard last month. Thinking that this world would be better without me. And things have gotten better. I've owned up to my mistakes, and I've been happier. I've found ppl who make me happy too. Tell ur self that it won't get better is not going to help at all. It doesn't start off with anti depressants, and paying to feel happy. It starts with you making an effort, and creating your own happiness. Remember....words are powerful.
Survivor here. Had a health scare the other and felt the overwhelming desire to live. It was indescribable. There is hope, Beloved. Declaring your healing. 🙏🔯🙏
Had a heart attack a few years ago. No overwhelming desire to live, I just wondered if it was going to kill me. It didn't, it was fairly minor. An interesting experience though.
Those who live dysfunctional toxic families to barely any friends have less chances of finding such support.
Kindness nowadays seem like a trade payment for such things. Positivity is a payment in many eyes.
U just totally described my situation. I do feel suicidal but i cant do that Im afraid.
The thought of doing suicide first came to me when i was 13. I can't suicide also i can't make myself better Im a looser. Now i think all those people who called me a looser r actually right. I hate everyone. Its suffocating. I can't die also i don't want to live like this.
It's really sad how kindness and what SHOULD be basic human decency are seriously rare these days. There ARE kind people, they just get drowned and choked out by the louder greed and selfishness of others /:
But they're there. Like you, a quiet gem with beauty to be discovered and appreciated by the right people.
With all due respect...
As someone who is almost forty, who as a kid had to cut his father from the rope when he killed himself, and who has 'these' thoughts more and more, I must say that quotes such as these:
"Suicide does not end the pain, it passes it to someone else."
... makes me livid. And the 'classic' overused Golden Gate Bridge example is a cherry on top. The only thing that is missing is another classic comment like, "Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem!" or "It's the coward's way out."
The rest of the video is fine, but those things break it for me. Whenever I hear something like that, it makes me feel even more disconnected from this world and other people. And judging by the people I talk to, I'm not the only one.
Please stop putting these "moralizing" quotes in videos related to suicide. They only make suicidal people feel worse 😞.
Thank you so much for saying this
Yes when they say things like these it hurts more. People think that those who do suicide are stupid and cowards and make fun of them. Maybe those who say these things never felt suicidal or depressed. When they say things like this people just laugh but I feel so sad but i can't say anything I don't want other people to know about my depression because i think they r gonna hurt me more.
Brilliantly said! The content creator obviously means well but they sadly have fallen prey to stereotypical views and beliefs. Suicide is a much more complex issue than most people can even begin to fathom. It’s not something that can be neatly summarised through platitudes and corporate rationalisation. Every individual is different and so are their circumstances. Let us never judge the experiences of others who have made very tragic decisions about their lives.
@@kuhelibiswas-kn7ej:
Yup... people don't really want to hear it or believe it until it happens. Every time I tried to talk to my family about it, it either ended up in laughter (because they thought I was joking) or in tears (because 'how can you even consider THAT?! What's wrong with you?!'). I don't believe most people are really interested in the problems of others, even if they claim they are.
That said, I don't think people who made this video think like that. I believe they're really trying to help. It just seems they're oblivious that these 'encouraging' quotes can be harmful and manipulative.
The article that almost all Golden Gate Bridge survivors regretted jumping is a perfect example. I spent enough time on forums where people who survive suicide attempts lurk to know that the 'I regret doing it; I don't wanna die!' reaction does NOT seem common at all. From what I remember from the posts, the majority of survivors (mostly from botched hanging attempts) said that they DIDN'T regret the attempt but rather that they botched the attempt and that they would try again in the future. That's a 'bit' different from the conclusion presented at the end of the video.
@@Huk256 @Huk256 Yes same happened with me. My family says they love me they care about me but I can't see it or feel it. Maybe they are not aware of themselves, maybe they think they are doing everything okay but they don't feel exactly what I'm feeling.
Not once but twice, I tried to talk with them but in the end I was going insane and crying while I could hear them talking and laughing. I cried infront of them but they showed no sympathy they were quite and that day I was going insane. I hit myself infront of them but they did nothing but my father was still sitting, he was angry and said shouting at me " u r an idiot! Yes hit yourself idiot!!" My mother was also angry and said " is she out of her mind or what?! R u possessed by a ghost? Why r u acting like this! She is crazy" " Go to a mental hospital " "r u possessed by ghost!!" But they never stopped me or hug me or showed a little bit of sympathy or affection. They just sit or stood still where they were and scolded me, showed how much annoying I was but never showed how much they are concerned that I was hitting myself. They told me furiously to stop crying while I was crying they mocked me for crying as if I am overdramatic or something and my mother hit me ((when I was not even crying infront of them but in my room but she won't let me close the door so she can come inside just to beat me or say things like " u r possessed by ghost" definitely they don't believe in ghost or stuff like that they are well educated))
Idk how they view me!!! That day I felt so much pain and I was really going insane idk how to describe what felt that day, it was horrible. The second time I again try to talk with them same thing happened that day I tried to kill myself but I was so afraid I couldn't.
Sorry of this long comment
Loneliness has made me regretably and unfortunately, think about ending it, but I am blessed to have the most emotionally intellegent friend, who has helped more than I could have ever hoped for. She continues to support me and I her. We have promised one another to stay besties till the bitter end. I love her and consider her family. I couldn't have wished for a better friend in life
❤❤❤❤
Youre lucky to have a close friend there for you
That’s good wish I had a friend like that
@@timminipray18 I hope you all the best, nd wish that you get a friend like her too🙏
After so many failures , fighting depression for years (still recovering )lost all friends, social life .still i dont know but i feel my time will come soon i just have to fight for now
As a random internet stranger I can tell you I'm here for you
Same, please don't quit! 🙏 I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers. There's no one like you, you're special, you matter. ❤
Never ever Give up on yourself. You are here for a purpose and a reason. God doesn’t make mistakes.
@@prettypuppy6752 I could not have said that better myself.
@@prettypuppy6752you’re wrong. If god doesn’t make mistakes, you’d have no one commit suicide.
For anyone who has had these thoughts, trust me, I've been there.
I wanna hug, hold, and offer support to anyone who requests it of me IRL.
All my life since 12 i have been suicidal. Before 12 I was very depressed. Grew up extremely poor with many times nothing to eat. Would go to bed with maybe a can of coke. Mom did the best she could. She didn’t drive and we lived good distance from town. And my dad was only around sometimes and my stepdad same. Two grown men and they were taken care by their parents , while my brother and I would suffer. Those were very dark times.
My mom committed suicide last year at the age of 70. I was very very close to her. My brother had with our dad after pointing a gun at mom when he was about 12 years old. He had the pistol to her head and I was begging him to not pull the trigger.
Fast forward to 2023. When mom took her life she did it directly in front of me. That permanently altered my whole being My brother doesn’t talk to me anymore and have no friends and no family. My family have all died. There is nothing to live anymore and no future. I struggle one day at a time. I’m 55 almost 56 years old and no family. So yeah if I pass on there isn’t going to be anyone remember me.
Ohh it's really very sad thing 😢
But now there is someone. By putting out your story, someone knows. I'm very good at remembering.
It doesn't have to be someone blood related to remember.
That’s awful and you’re so strong to have gone through all of that. I hope u can find a happier turn in life
🤍🙏
This video brings me to tears 😢
I’ve been putting off seeking help for my ideations and behaviors because of commitments I’ve made with people. I don’t want to disappoint so i shove everything in a box until later
Same I just suppress it
Even if you will suppress please try to make yourself feel better there are a lot of self treatments for these kind of things like meditation or finding something you really enjoy, though obviously I would still recommend telling people
Sometimes, you've got to put yourself first. I know this is easy to say, but not so easy to do. One of the things I'm trying to learn in therapy, is how to forgive myself in addition to learning how to love myself. Procrastination is as symptom of depression and Passive SI.
For your own sake, please try to get yourself some help. Not for my sake, friends sake, or even family's sake. For your OWN sake.
Maybe when those commitments pay off and maybe when you’ve improved those people lives, maybe then you’ll find valuable and purpose where there was none and finally you’ll get rid of that box entirely.
Having just left my therapist this video came at the right time
I'm 12 years old and I have an hiperfocus on psychology so I love ur videos I really want to be a psychologic
Not a bad thing to be hyper focused on. I had this dream as kid and wish I pursued it. Good luck!
Samee just so I could learn why I have Bpd and severe depression cuz like it's tough being a 14year old w all this stuff maybe if I become a child psychologist I'll heal my inner kid
Make sure you share with an adult you trust the content you are watching ❤
I love psychology vidoes like this. I really want to become a child psychologist.
i've thought of that too but i was mainly focused on helping myself, make sure you help yourself before you become a psychologist to help others :)
It feels like help is in another universe!
just had a conversation with a friend and he truly cares it makes me feel so much better
Oh that’s so wonderful!!
Praise God for your kind, loving and understanding friend 🙏🏻❤️❤️🥰
That is such a wonderful friend. May he have the best life, as well as you.
I’m unsure why TH-cam I sending notifications for your videos days/weeks later after they’ve been posted, but the timing of receiving it is spot on because I feel so alone right now.
I’m tackling struggle after struggle with no support from anyone it’s triggering passive suicidal ideation. I’ve been in therapy and support workshops for 2 almost 3 years which has helped tremendously, but with so many things happening at once I feel overwhelmed.
You are not alone ❤
Have you ever been tested for ASD? Autism spectrum disorder
@@prettypuppy6752 ?
@@prettypuppy6752 I’m not autistic and I wish people would stop assuming it’s a possibility just because I detail certain symptoms experienced as a result of trauma or specific hardships I’m handling. Yes, I’m neurodivergent, but not everything is because of autism.
Stay strong bro!!
This shows up right as i just havent been feeling it so much lately, i know i always dont want to be here and always have for the longest, ive stayed here just hoping to see better days and it feels like its just so far away no matter how much ive been trying but i continue trying my hardest. Im just very tired.
Please don't give up, you matter! I've had really bad days too. Wouldn't be saying all this if I didn't know where you were coming from. No matter how hard things get, try to look for at least one positive thing that happened to you in the day. Then the next day try to find two things. Gradually keep increasing it. This can help and be very therapeutic.
@@SirSonic900thank you for this excellent advice.
@@prettypuppy6752 You're welcome. 😊 hope it helps.
Maybe the place you're at right now is dragging you down? I don't know your circumstances, but I found my moving away and subsequent freedom quite healing. Doesn't mean I never have any rough spots, I do. I just tend to ignore mean intrusive thoughts and ask myself if I really wanna feel them. Feel free to talk to me,it's too early to give up ;)

I’m studying psychology, soon to be finished with my PhD. This video is why I chose this field of study. I understand the feelings of worthlessness and hopelessness and how it can be overwhelming 😢Praying for all those experiencing heavy and dark thoughts! ❤🙏🏽🌹
40+ years of these thoughts (active for the first 15 of those, then passive). Stress relief. Knowing that there is an alternative to having to be alive makes it easier to make it through the day.
whenever I feel
svicidal I always watch psych2Go videos, not only their videos help but also the comments so thank you very much people I never met who are more caring
I agree and I am the same. I hope things get better for you
@@Sapphic_Kai tyvm, u too 😔♥️✨
It's amazing how much impact strangers can have through shared experiences. What small action can you take today to spread that same positivity?
On these sorts of videos, the comments always remind me that even though it may feel like it, i am not alone. I have never met these people but they are going through or have gone through similar things. Thank you so much to all of the caring people here, for making me feel loved.
I’ve never felt more alone in my life than I do right now. It somehow both hurts my heart and gives me some hope knowing strangers care about me without actually knowing me. I wish those I showed support to, supported me too when I need them the most.
One year clean! I believe in you 😊
That's great to hear!
Glad to hear, keep going😊
Awesome to hear! Keep it up! 😄♥️
I’m struggling to keep my 12 year old daughter alive who just doesn’t want to be here anymore after being bullied in school for years, it takes a toll. I am scared, it’s a struggle. I pray for everyone here, may God help us all find some peace of mind 🙏
Never leave her alone. Always try to talk to her and listen to her attentively. Approach to her softly. Dont force her or do anything hurtful like my parents did.
And same thing happened to me at school but no one could do anything. I should have fight back and be strong i regret not doing anything and my parents are harsh .. they never really protected me and made me strong.
I am praying for her ❤🙏. SHE IS STRONG AND SHE WILL OVERCOME THIS SOON. SHE WILL LIVE A HAPPY LIFE AND ALL HER BULLIES WILL SUFFER, THEY WILL GO TO HELL!
Prayers to her and you, remember to listen and keep an open heart. Good luck and blessings to you both!

I hope your daughter gets better. I am 15 and get bullied and try to kill myself a lot. I want to be able to give you advice but I don’t have any. God bless you and your child.
I committed yesterday, said my goodbye to my friends (mind you they were at school), i thought this time id finally be free from the shit life is throwing at me.
Then, out of nowhere, my best friend ran in the heavy rain, from our school to my house, she broke in and found me cutting my wrist. My other best friend was calling and texting me through the whole scenario, telling me to stay for them and for everyone that cares about me.
I didnt realize that people cared about me, just after the attempt I did. Im glad that i get to live another day because of my friends, i get to listen to the new songs my favorite artists made because of them, i get to draw and animate another day because of them, i get to hug my siblings and my friends once again. The last part of the video was true, they didnt want to die, they just wanted to way to get out. I regret what I did yesterday, seeing the way my best friend cried in front of me in the rain.
im at a local hospital rn, surviving. God really sent angels to save me
This story brought me to tears your friend loves you very much if they are determined enough to do that I doubt that any of my friends would do that and I’m sure they are so glad that you are safe now. I hope your mental health improves.
Sincerely from Caledonian railway Number 903
As a young child, I had several suicidal ideations, I personally think it started when I was 6 years old. When I was 6, my older siblings told me that they wished I wasn't their sister and that I just had died instead, I think what they said is what started my ideas of suicide. I was a sensitive child and I still am, I couldn't handle yelling, criticism or upsetting someone, I was a massive people pleaser to everyone so when people got angry at me, I started wanting to die. But those thoughts often faded in and out thanks to the fact that I had a lot of friends but now I can't say the same anymore. As of now I still think of suicide but I never do any self harm neither do I try killing myself, it's more like one way of comforting me when I'm sad but there's also a massive factor on why I haven't killed myself, and that's the fact I'm scared of death. If I wasn't scared of death I probably would have killed myself along time a go, and now I don't even have that much friends to comfort me and I most definitely do not trust my parents since they only make my suicidal thoughts worse. To ignore my suicidal thoughts I've often tried to just ignore it or try to distract myself with something else like academics.
I had a friend exactly like how you’re describing yourself. We had a pretty bad fallout and are no longer friends. We had met online through a game and exchanged discord and phone numbers. One night she told me her temperature was low and it wouldn’t stop going lower and lower. I thought she was going to die of hypothermia. (Her temp got down below 60 degrees) she lived in an abusive household with mean older siblings and awful parents. I loved her with all my heart and was relieved to see she had survived the night but also quite upset as she worried me a lot and made me begin to think of life without her which upset me more. But I loved her. She just didn’t love me the same way. It was a shame how we fell out, but it was necessary. I’m glad you’re still here as well. I don’t know you and at this time would not like to get to know you, but I’m sure you’re a wonderful person and I can assure you that you are loved whether you know it or not.
As a person with a chronic illness I felt this video on a DEEP level
Whenever the "psychache" gets too much for me to handle and I start thinking about how to end it all, I force myself to consider what being dead REALLY means: Not just the pain stopping, but EVERYTHING stopping. No more breathing, no more heartbeat, no more feeling, no more thinking. No waking up and feeling better, no waking up at all. Not even being aware enough to witness eternal darkness, just being switched off and never being switched on again. Gone forever.
I defeat suicidal ideation by being more afraid of being dead.
But that means it didnt really get too much for you to handle and you handled it quite good and thats cool but if someone really experience that being aware or even just existing is just an endless pain and suffering, to them thinking about anything good that could come which is basically also what i use to counter my ideation that i only got one chance and this chance is bound to end anyways so why not bear some pain to see how life unflods is just not an option anymore for someone who truly only experience pain and suffering that same argument that this one chance is bound to end anyways becomes the reason for the ideation that it may as well end now, that you have seen what life has to offer and you want no part in it.
Your description of death sounds peaceful to me. And yet I’m still here fml
I'm the same but when it got really bad this didn't help anymore. Turns out my brain malfunctions and I absolutely need medication. Without medication I wasn't *able* to ever feel peace of mind, and I only realized that at 30 something after lots of therapy and several attempts. What a game changer a little tweaking of hormones can be...
Too afraid to actually do the final solution. But, would be fine with disappearing or just ceasing to exist. Death is not the scariest thing in life. Living can be much scarier. This hits hard: Unwanted, Unseen, Unheard, Unsupported. A lifetime of this just wears a person down.
I feel and share your pain 😢❤️❤️❤️
It is, but man the odds of you even being here right now are 1 in 400 trillion you are truly only given one chance❤️❤️
I am sending love to all people that are going through this. You are not alone
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Life can feel so dark and hopeless at times but all you need is a little light. That one friend or memory that walks with you. Not everyone has that yet but there‘s so much more time to experience it if one chooses to live. Don‘t give up. Great video
The day I take my life I know it won’t hurt anyone so I am very happy to know that I don’t matter to anyone. I hate when people say it is going to be ok as if ok is a good quality of life. I know that I have no value to anyone but they believe I should stay alive all for the sake of being alive. Nothing I do works no matter what it is. I have been striving for years even trying different things yet I keep failing. I take antidepressants and have gone to therapy yet I am still struggling. Having been diagnosed with ADHD and Autism doesn’t make my depression any better. So it is only a matter of time before I end it all.

Hang in there! One day at a time! Stop thinking of yourself and help someone else live, do volunteer work, feed the homeless, this world is in bad shape someone could use your help!
@@debralattimore9548 If you were to walk around Vegas with my picture and show it to many homeless people and other people, they would say, oh!!!! That guy comes to feed us, sit with us, and talks with us for a few hours. Others will say, that guy always takes out the time to help me and is always there for me. Others will say, he has such a kind heart because whenever I need someone to talk to, he is there. When it is my turn for help, needing someone to talk to, celebrate graduations, birthdays, etc, I have NO ONE. So, there isn’t anything a human can say about me helping others because that has been my storyline for years.
My friend struggles with suicidal thoughts, I think I help her change it. I tell her it isn’t worth it and that I’m here for her. Psych2Go, thank you. Your amazing and make me feel more fit in. Sometimes I wonder if I have a purpose but I always think about people I love and not wanting them to feel the pain I have.
I almost committed suicide when i was 17 bc i was struggling with when i was R@ped by my best friend that i basically trusted with my life and my parents knew but never helped me and i couldn't deal with the nightmares and the panic attacks and nobody was answering my emails (the only way to communicate with my friends and nephew at the time) and i was about to go into the bathroom and overdose on my allergy pills and something in the back of my head kept telling me to look at my computer and i kept ignoring it till i was in the hallway going to the bathroom and i finally listened and opened my computer and saw an email from one of my friends and my nephew and from then on i knew they saved my life and i even told them i thanked them sadly i turned to SH shortly after and I'm struggling to get clean and i still deal with suicidal thoughts but i always think of my nephew and what he would do if i was gone and and now knowing my grandma is up in heaven i think of how sad she would be to see me in heaven before my time
Thank you Psych2Go for always doing your best to help other people, asking for their opinions on future videos and being the reason why many people haven't given up yet.❤❤
Thank you so much for your kind words and support! We're grateful to be part of your journey, and we hope to continue making a positive impact!
I just now realized how much I was like this in the past, before I moved, I'm glad I'm becoming a lot better ❤
For the past 30 years i've had daily suicidal thoughts. Therapy made them come slightly less but they still are almost daily.
💔💔Me too. Don’t give up hope dear friend
I am currently reading Van der Kolk "The Body Keeps the score" discovering and facing root causes of emotional pain has been eye opening for me, I found this video a poor effort to cover the topic as it does not mention the causes as much as it is trying to address / treat symptoms. Warning, the book is a difficult read for its complications language / detailed medical journals reports style and also its ability to bring up old stressors / pain, but also very enlightening. Gabor Mate is also an amazing resource on youtube, and his books.
Stay strong bro❤️❤️ the universe is equal if you have the worst time of your life you’ll have the best whether that’s now or 40 years from today
Please don't give up. There is a safe way out of that dark psychological cage.
A positive message about hope and the possibility of recovery is vital, reminding viewers that they are not alone and that there is light at the end of the tunnel
I have been experiencing an overwhelming sense of fatigue, coupled with personal issues, sleepless nights, and an unfortunate streak of bad luck, for the past several months. It feels as though I can no longer find joy or pleasure in the things I once enjoyed.
Even my 'friends' seem to contribute to my sense of alienation. Lately, I feel as though I just can't take it anymore..
Please don’t make any rash decisions. I believe in you that you can make it through ❤️
You guys are beyond amazing! You've probably helped a countless number of people from taking that final and fatal action!
I can only speak for myself, I experience things that are really beyond explanation, so I won't bother to even try! I just wanted to state that I have no idea how my life is going to turn out, but I will keep at it until my true relief and peace 🕊️ arrive! I hope I can endure until I find my way out!
Thanks for everything that you do Amanda and the rest of the Psych2Go staff! One day maybe there'll be a true and definitive cure for all these sinister and enigmatic challenges, and we can all finally truly enjoy life! Be safe and take care! Bye!
❤❤❤❤
I never want to wake up i want to be in a dream where im still young and playing *happy* even though i feel like im dramatic sometimes i feel its not dramatic but just.. *unwanted unworthy of life* nothing will change it
@AbrarMmoo I'm sorry. But please know you are worthy of life, and you're not unwanted. Sometimes I feel that way too but that's just my depression telling me lies.
I'm also suffering from ADHD, OCD, BIPOLAR DISORDER, ANXIETY and last one DEPRESSION since 3 years and now I'm of 15 years.
It's very difficult to handle the situation and control emotions.
Today i was thinking of commit suicide because no one values me, but recently I saw this video, it encouraged me to go ahead in my path of life.😊

THANKS A LOT DEAR ELDER SISTER ❤❤❤
In Germany, you often wait up to 12 months for an appointment with a psychologist. In theory, we have enough therapists, but too few can be covered by health insurance. The death of a person is much cheaper for health insurance than providing therapy.
😢
When I was suicidal it was more due to being excited about the afterlife than actually hating this current life. Eventually I came to the realization that since I will die someday anyways, there’s no reason to rush it. Might as well try to live a decent life in this illusory reality.
life do be down sometimes
but we must keep living
I definitely feel the trapped in a cage feeling where everything feels hopeless from failure after failure to move forward in life to a better happier place, both in my own life, and in the wider world... I'm glad I have my loved ones like my friends and family cause they're the reason I'm even still around.
I fear not enough people click onto a video like this. I'm here to say sometimes I too no longer want to exist. But I know that's not a solution. Prayer is the main thing that keeps me grounded. I know God hears me. I'm worried about those who might be afraid to watch this video or even comment. As this video says. Not talking about it can make those feelings worse. So please to anyone who reads this don't be afraid to express yourself here. To quote the video "there's always someone who will listen."
Religion is not everyone's togo for this...
thanks for the reminder friend. God bless you always
agreed, couldn't have said better myself, however, some people may not be religious
Sometime me too
wait, how did you comment 8 days ago, for me the video was made 15 mins ago????
I’ve just stopped caring. I can’t even remember the last time anything mattered to me. I don’t even know why I still pretend to be okay or normal or even continue each day. I know it may sound like it, but im not even sad anymore, I just feel nothing. I could die in s minute, and I’d be perfectly fine with that. It was just meant to be I guess, or something. I could live and suffer for another year, and it still wouldn’t matter, same end result, just more pain. I don’t care about dying or living. I’ve been broken for so long that I can’t even imagine myself differently in my dreams and fantasies anymore. Maybe this is just who I am now, maybe one day I can learn to stop hating myself, and lose all care to even hate.
Actually me tbh, you phrased it perfectly🙏
I have had this and I live in a home of no support. My teacher and my dog are the only one's I'm still living for. Sadly I've still felt myself slipping away. I don't greet the teacher with a smile every time anymore. I still care about him and I know he still cares about me. It's just...the numbness. It's growing.
Thank you
You just saved my life for some more time .
One time my friends pressured me to tell them about my suicidal thoughts and attempts and I did then they all said I was a horrible person and just doing it for attention when all I wanted was for them to leave it. They betrayed me after everything I’ve done for them.
😢😢💔💔💔❤️❤️❤️
Those videos are always nice to watch but it still doesn't change that nothing will change, no one cares and if you are lonely not it will probably stay that way... I wish it weren't like that but that's life.
Hey, if your reading this just please. Please talk to someone. I know its scary to talk to others but people can fix everything, just make sure they are trustworthy. They say only a few people will come through your life which will truly stay with you, find those people.
How?
Personal experience -People do not fix things for you. Yeah you are lucky if you find one person that gives a damn, but that isn't enough for most of us
Yeah no. That's how you get locked up
Like a genuine question, how do you find ‘your people’ I’m not even sure if any one of us even have that truly? I say this because despite therapy, family and friends things die or either we grow out of?
@@zvezda_novah122
If I'm being honest its different for everyone, I suppose I worded it weirdly but I just mean find people who care about you. People really like to be negative when it comes to stuff like this and say people like that don't exist. Not every friendship you think is the one is going to be the one. I can assure you, no matter how hopeless it may seem you will always have someone who will truly care about you no matter what. If it doesn't seem like that at the moment, you need to find that person. Whether its working towards a goal and seeing who you meet along the way or even just finding something that makes you happy and doing it with others.
I've come to treat suicide not as a tragedy, but as a right. A basic human right. If a person wants to die, they should be able to do that without shame.
I have a pen-friend who is very suicidal, and I neither encourage or discourage him. I try counseling him when I feel like he needs it, but if he wants to do the thing - it's his right, his choice.
I myself am also suicidal. Though in my case I don't actively want to die, rather it's situational. Sometimes I'm laughing and enjoying the moment, other times I feel like a total failure of a person, unable to do anything, a waste of space. I'm not even living - I'm just existing, going on autopilot without any purpose. I hate myself. I don't actively try to end myself, because I'm a spineless coward, and because I'm worried about how it would affect my family. But I do often fantasize about falling asleep one day and never waking up.
Thank you for making this video.
This video hits home to me. Not only that I'm a pessimistic person but I'm also defenseless when I am alone. I always fear for the worse everyday and I feel like that suicide is the answer 😢. Due to my past traumas in my life, I'm always scared that things will never be right, so I think about just simply end it all. But then, I've just realized that I don't want to die, I just wanted the pain and suffering to end. So thanks for the video, Psych2Go. I really needed it.
Edit: I'm also schizoaffective bipolar.
The fact that this video gets uploaded and shows up on my algorythm, just as i entered one of the baddest episodes of my life, and just had thoughts of suicide a few hours ago, doesn't feel like a coincodence...
I mean... it's not like i want to die in any ways, may it be suicide or a fatal car crash or something like that. It's more like... if had a button that would turn this world into a version of itself in that i never existed, i would press it. No pain, no grief for others, everyone that ever knew me, couldn't remember me anymore... this truly sounds like a dream to me... just snapping out of it, without making anyone sad or maybe disappointet...
Holy shit... i never thought talking about this can bring that much relieve, even thou it's just writing...
I mean... i even stopped crying while writing the last few lines...
And if you stayed till this one... please remember that there is always someone that likes or even loves you. You are not alone.
❤❤❤❤❤
I totally relate. . . Especially with the part of erasing the signs that I have ever been here
Thank you for sharing such a vulnerable and honest message. It's incredible how writing out our feelings can sometimes bring relief and clarity. We hope that expressing yourself has provided some comfort, and we want you to know that your words will resonate with others going through something similar. Have you ever considered what small step could help bring a little more peace to your day?
Thank you for addressing this topic. It happened to my family and friends.
It's tough, but I keep fighting, thank you for this video
Lived with it for 22 years due to CPTSD.. I'm now 3 years recovered❤
Unfortunately nothing can stop the 'psychache' when you're trapped in a house, forced to be a caretaker, nurse, maid, personal shopper, chef, etc, for one narcissist (my father) and one woman who keeps talking about wanting to die (my mother).
TBH, the thought of never having to wake up again sounds more like a release than a punishment.
Please know that I understand your situation
Wow, this video came out at just the right time!😢
I’ve had them since I was 14. I’m 24 now turning 25 next year and it’s been hard sometimes. What has helped me is telling myself “see how you feel in the morning. If you feel the same way then do it” The next morning, everytime yeah I’m still down and depressed, but I’m not stuck in a constant loop thinking I should end it all to end my pain or psychache as the video calls it.
Reading your comment section felt calming and warm :D
Been suffering from PSI for a couple of decades. Got medication for depression and thought more clearly and logically about it, and found that I was probably right. Had chest pains or sharp headaches and thought, "please let this be it!" Friends and family tell me to talk to someone else if I mention anything close to emotional struggles, so I just dont say anything anymore.
Every night, I pray that i dont wake up. I don't want to give up, so I won't do it myself (yet). But I doubt I would make any effort to "save" myself if something finally happens. 🤞
You can talk to me if you’d like to though, I won’t brush you off.
I remember the times I had passive suicidal ideation with immense sadness. It felt like I was jumping back and forth between willingness to end myself and sense of guilt for wanting to discard my life like that. All because I still had many things to lose and those who'd suffer from this decision.
You won't believe what was the catalyst of me curing from this state of mind. I got into a particularly terrible situation (can describe it if anyone's interested) when the psychache didn't stop until I fell asleep. I felt like the earth had disappeared from under my feet.
But the very next day I realized that if I resorted to my typical patterns of self-pitying/hatred, I'd feel much worse that I had ever before. I still can't fully comprehend how much I've changed over the last several months, but I've never felt better.
Don't lose hope. Maybe find an inspirational person who's endured so many hardships, but still stayed alive, fought back and emerged victorious. One such person for me is Eminem. Just know that one day you will get through all of this and live to tell about how you went to your own kind of hell and back. Your story will be inspiring to those around you.
It's really strange because i can think about suicide and think it would likely be the best choice. Then, one day you start skidding on ice and think you might crash and die and all you can think is....i don't REALLY want to die!! Yet, when you go back to your everyday life, the feelings of wanting to die once again seem to overpower everything.
No matter how much I struggled before I have never ever been suicidal…….but this year……I experienced something horrifying…..all my repressed memories came back….all me hidden wounds reopened…and I’ve been experiencing brutal flashbacks EVERY…SINGLE…DAY that passes…I literally hear my dad’s angry shouts in my mind every single day..even in my happy moments….every small thing reminds me of my childhood even random objects….this year…for the very first time I experienced suicidal thoughts and still have them to this very moment btw…..and these thoughts didn’t come up randomly like once a week or once a month….they popped in my head EVERY SINGLE DAY….lately I take forever to fall asleep and literally the only phrases that repeat in my head are just “KILL ME KILL ME JUST KILL ME I WANT TI BANG MY HEAD THROUGH THE WALL UNTIL I BLEED” imagine sitting with such thoughts at night for FIVE HOURS
I’m tired….I’m just tired of everything….all the memories I already remember aren’t even enough..theirs still more memories, more pain…more wounds waiting to reopen..I’m just exhausted I’ll never rest I wish my memories would just be wiped out I rather have dementia and forget everything than live with such weight on my shoulders I want to rest forever….
I really learned from this video it deserves support, care, and loved. Thank you for making this video psych2go
I've had suicidal ideations since I was 12... I turn 30 next month thankfully I have my best friend as my support anchor. I won't commit suicide but my thoughts drift more towards second hand suicide
Me too. But i don't have anyone emotionally available for me. I think everyone hates me since i was born. I never had any supportive person. No one likes me. I feel depressed all the time.
@@Amanda2222-g8dyou have youreself, keep fighting for yourself, for the things you like, i’m doing the same, and i will do it forever ✌🏻
@@Amanda2222-g8di dont hate you! I can be ur supportive person :D
@@00.kirbyy Thanks for saying that. But u can't really support me irl sorry to say that. But Thank You.
@@Amanda2222-g8d ah its fine and your welcome!
I am currently writing my finals. Its the end of my high school years and i have failed most of my exams. I have spent the past two years fighting depression alone and I am on the verge of giving up to tell the truth my life has never amounted to anything and will never amount to anything. I wanna cry but nothing no tears will come out. The overwhelming pain in my chest is too much to bear.
0:48 I’m going to make it clear that I don’t want to wake up in the morning because I want to sleep in. Just trying to get that known. But still it is a big issue so if anyone sees this comment should seek help if they get ideas of harming themselves.
Sometimes the world pushing some to feel this way daily.
Not everyone can get or be provided therapy.
If not it is always medication is the final excuse. There is many who have resistant medication kind.
So many have zero loved ones who could care less for the struggles they face with these feelings.
Yes. This videos do not help. Cuz the real life people are the devil here they are cruel. How can anyone live a healthy life when people in this world is so disgusting?
@@Amanda2222-g8dit’s very very hard to live amongst people who have little to no empathy… especially when they are your immediate family members. We have to try to separate ourselves from toxic relationships and learn how to be alone without becoming lonely. It’s a very hard road to travel but it is worth it. God is with us always and we just have to trust that He is in control and is directing our lives for our own good. I say this as someone whose whole family of origin has abandoned them less than 2 years after surviving aggressive breast cancer. Everyday I have to push myself hard to keep on going and to not give up.
@@Amanda2222-g8d though I do agree with you to an extent not everyone is like this and to assume you. You maybe have an antisocial disorder to severe trust issues.
Grouping all people like this isn't right either but I won't deny it is the majority of the general public.
Empathy nowadays is severely lacking to nonexistent, while selfishness to overly sensitive zero tolerance are at an all time high.
@@keip4568 Most people are like this! Wherever I went or go people always acted rude with me even if I don't interact with them. I'm introverted and like u said ig I have too much trust issues but I never harmed anyone verbally or physically still people for some reason hated me since childhood.
My family, relatives, so-called friends, classmates, even strangers whom I had just met, men women older people younger people everyone hurt me since childhood. As it happens constantly till I grew up I became more and more sensitive to others even their small words hurt me but in childhood I cried felt hurt but now I only feel anger... Sometimes I think now whenever someone's gonna say a little bad things about me I want to explode and hit them or do something violent maybe then I can feel peaceful. Especially my classmates. But when the time comes I feel so weak inside also sad.
Even tho ppl say things will get better they never really do instead it just keeps getting worse. The situation it turning so much worse that slowly I'm losing my control over it idk how long I can take it
my suicide days are gonna keep going down
I clicked with the full intention of learning. Did not expect to cry. I had battled with all that and so much more for 20 years and finally had a moment where to test it out I made an attempt but decided that if it was prolonged I would end up making a serious attempt but it felt like what has been mentioned in the video. However, made a decision to not go over the edge and I do not know how but can not let it get that worse. Helplines were not much of a help. So I reached out to the family but was met with criticism from loved ones and taunts. No one saw how I pulled myself out from the dark place alone. To this date figuring everything out myself with everyone leaving and still in the middle of the war but I have not given up on working on myself and the situation. It is extremely hard when you are not even allowed to heal and even your screams for help are being negated and no explanation was enough. But I am trying and to others, I am not doing much but to me, I know I am, and I do not allow anyone to gaslight this part. I am a mental and emotional health officer and ever since childhood, I have been the kind of person anyone can talk to, trust, and feel comfortable around and that is because of all the trauma I have faced. I was able to understand people from all walks of life. My intuition power and emotional intelligence increased many folds. What if one day I might find peace as well.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have a suicidal friend thats 13, we'll call her Ann. Soo Ann already tried suicide at least 10 times in 2-3 years, but everytime she nearly ended it, she remembered how much me and another friend would have missed her. Ann told me that one of the only things that help her alive are I, that other friend and mha. Ann also LOVES posters, and shes lesbian (has a crush on her straight friend). Her parents hate her posters and are homophobic.. A therapist her parents called (not for her personally) diagnosed Ann with severe depression and anxiety. Ann really trusted the therapist and told her everything bad in her life, but later the therapist betrayed her. And so did her aunt. Lately Ann's parents were fighting daily, and today her mom sas shes got enough of Anns ignorance and left "forever" (i dont belive shell never come back).. Oh and did i mention her parents see Ann as an extension of themselves (aka toxic parents)? Oh and with Anns sister, they are the best parents ever! And Ann daydreams basically ALL THE TIME. We've already called to child support line and they sad to book a session, but how can Ann book a session without her parents knowing when they watch every move of hers?? I just wanted some help cuz im 13 too and the other friend is also 13 and i just sometimes daydream abt an universe where Ann would have a normal life. Can someone give me advice??
Do you have a trusted adult you can tell all of this? Maybe a teacher in your school? As far as I know teachers can also reach a CPS. Also, I believe, if multiple people would report to CPS about the same situation, it will force them to do something. Multiple suicidal attempts of a child seems like a legitimate reason.
thx for you response but the situation is just soo complicated. There is no trusted adult, thats why i came here. Her parents just like to "hang out" with other teachers and hear all the latest tea. Thats why at least i dont trust teachers that much (they also spelled tea abt me so..), so teachers arent a solution either. And by Ann not being able to get help from Child support line i meant she cant book a therapy session by herself. But still, those adults must be pretty dump for thinking a child could just randomly book a session by herself without her parents knowing. Well Tysmm for careing ❤❤
If you’re not happy where you are right now, imagine yourself having less in life (a worse childhood, poorer background, less achievements, slower life compared to “others”) but still being able to find a will to live for tomorrow.
You know that u can make a better future for yourself. A life where you feel stable & comfortable.
Happiness can be found all around us big or small, we just have to learn how to seek&feel them every Single day. No matter what life u have u deserve to smile abt one thing each day.
I was wondering.... I never quite understood eating disorders, can you make a video about it? Great work!
A thought is only as overwhelming as much emotional charge as you allow it to have. ❤
Idk how I ended up at this point. But a combination of things (I presume were both being bored from having nothing to do & stuff not feeling fun anymore+adhd+feeling sick+maybe even a dark thought if my future) have led me into a dark spot.
Went down a rabbit hole of doing stuff like researching why stuff happens to me or just ranting messages to a safe spot like this one. I absolutely have experienced the whole “having thought of it but not actually doing it” & the reminder of regretting to attempt it from people that have tried or the thought of the pain just being passed on is the small thread that still keeps me in it.
I’ve been in an episode & haven’t experienced any joy besides a small chuckle from a video or two but I do feel like I’m being grounded again after today from watching informational videos like this & from that rant
the timing of this video couldn't have been more perfect
They always bring these videos at the right place at the right time.
I've struggled with Passive SI for probably about 40 years now. When I was in either my late 20's or early 30's (I am now 56), I was diagnosed with PTSD and hereditary depression. I was molested as a kid by my older half sister, and I've had nothing but bad luck with women.
There are times where I get to thinking, "eh, what's the point?" what I call "Dark Thoughts." I've been taking meds since I was diagnosed and am in therapy. After all these years, I get tired of these thoughts and am taking slow steps to change them, but it is hard.
I think what those of us who have Passive SI need to learn is, 1) to forgive ourselves, 2) learn to love ourselves, and 3) try to remember that this world would be a worse place without you.
This video makes it sound so much better
Three months ago, my sister took her own life during a depressive episode. She had been on sick leave for just one week. During that time, we took her into our home so she wouldn’t be alone. She never told us how badly she was truly feeling. I wish she had opened up to us. We are devastated, and we miss her so much.
If you are struggling with thoughts of suicide, please reach out to someone-family, friends, or helplines. Help is available, and people are willing to support you. You matter. Depression can create these terrible thoughts, but with professional help, they can be overcome. Please don’t make a permanent decision for what may be a temporary illness.
I’m sorry ❤
Another day of no one understanding me though my autism, or they do understand and don't like what they hear.
Me too! Fellow autistic here and feeling totally alone. I feel your pain 😢💔💔💔
Yeah I feel like they should have included neurodivergents as a vulnerable group too.
Many times since childhood I've had moments of "how the hell do you not understand" with people
@@BlackKittyCat99 Sometimes I wonder if the only reason we are not is we don't support large sweeping changes to society. Since that's what really benefits the ruling class.
@@anthonywalker6268 Can you pls explain what you mean? I’m on (prescription) Triazolam right now so I’m pretty tired and a little bit slow lol. But that sounds like an interesting idea I could understand when I wake up lol
Thank you for sharing!
Hey @Psych2go could you do a video about empathy burnout and setting boundaries please? I saw a community post from you about this, and I rarely find content about it out there. Specifically, I want to know how to handle boundaries and burnout when caring for someone who isn't able to reciprocate as much due to their issues. Where it's not their fault, but is the fault of their illness. I believe that setting expectations and boundaries appropriately is important when someone you care for is going through a mental health disorder. This enables us to care for them and us, without leading to situations of anger caused by burnout, and then blaming the already affected person because we don't know enough. Safe ways to work through our emotions, constructively letting the frustration go, compassion and understanding, taking care of ourselves and setting our own life apart, these are all important values everyone should know.
