How to stop yourself from wanting to die?

PhoenixPhail · M Best Comment
Find something that makes you feel good. My guess is, you haven't found that for some time.

Being stubborn works for me. Yeah, life gets shitty but i'm not leaving until i'm satisfied with myself, so fuck you self hatred and occasional depression.
LyricalOne · F
@SailorMarz There’s a lot to be said for being stubborn.
@SailorMarz Good for you, Sailor.

Your looking at it backwards.

What you should be asking is why you feel like you want to die?

Then actively work to put positive things in your daily or weekly life that counters that negative feelings.
PrivatePeeks · 26-30, F
@User41 Or find a reason to live. Activity makes things better.

Say, Fuck you world and do what [i]you [/i]want to do.
Take no notice of what other people think of you or your actions. You deserve happiness as much as everyone else and no one has the right to tell you otherwise

I try but I’m just criticized @Gusman

try to replace the thoughts of dying with other thoughts and keep trying to you succeed.It can be a long lonely road but if you put everything you have into it you could surprise yourself. read as much as possible about things that interest you watch comedy and make small goals for yourself daily. you have to start somewhere.
why do you want to die? You must deal with that and if you need help ask for it. Your so young and look pretty it would be a terrible shame if you give up on life. x

You need to find someone/something worth living for.

I just feel like the world is corrupt@Lostpoet
Lostpoet · M
@PrettyTroubles It is but you are not. Just focus on what makes you happy and f everything else.
@PrettyTroubles So much of the world IS corrupt. I have trouble dealing with it, too. I look for things that make ME feel good, and let the rest of the world do its thing. 🤗

I will try. God put us here for a reason. God wants us to live life to the fullest extent. There are going to be good times and there are going to bad times. We must accept it all. Eventually we will reunite with God and then we will understand everything. I am not religious but I am spiritual and that is what I believe.
Bruja · F
I' m still trying to figure that out...
PrettyTroubles · 26-30, F
At least someone understands @Bruja

@PrettyTroubles maybe you aren't giving it a chance to work. You need to learn how to love yourself and life. You only get one chance. Don't blow it.

there are so many fun things to do on this earth. you pick one, figure out how to do it, do it, then choose another one. if you're not happy at least have fun, that's easy.

Don't judge yourself for your worst failures, or think too far into the future.

Corny as it sounds, staying in the present and making the best of each moment can get you through a lot of shit.
Zaphod42 · 46-50, M
I get up everyday and fight back the feeling by reaffirming I have someone and something to live for, and continue the affirmations through the day.
whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M
You dont. You get up every day and find a reason to live. And do it again tomorrow
PrettyTroubles · 26-30, F
Sometimes I don’t though and I just stay in bed@whowasthatmaskedman
whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M
@PrettyTroubles I do understand what you are saying. But, part of me is a little jealous of you being able to do that.😉
Thank you for Best Answer. It would seem not finding something that feels good is something we have in common. 😢

Well look at the faces of the loved ones you have. Just think of them and you wouldn't want to do it
ImRileyTheDog · 22-25, F
Surround yourself with people who care?
PrettyTroubles · 26-30, F
ImRileyTheDog · 22-25, F
@PrettyTroubles Think on the bright side?
RemovedUsername329422 · 51-55, M
I understand completely. Especially on a night like tonight. It’s been a rough evening.
Crazytxtink · 51-55, F
My 15 year old son. I couldn't leave him with a broken heart.

not too sure. nothing works for me.

Give yourself reasons to live.
HermannFegelein · 26-30, M
Remember that if you die then you won't ever have another slice pizza ever again in your life...or ice cream or cookies or lasagna or candy. That stuff is delicious yo.
Ryanoliver2011 · 26-30, M
@HermannFegelein 😂 This guy
PrettyTroubles · 26-30, F
It’s probably better I could lose a couple pounds of life 😂@HermannFegelein
Not dying usually helps

[@only people who use mePhoenixPhail]
@PrettyTroubles There are ways to not let yourself be used. I'm sure you can find people on SW who wouldn't use you, and who would like to be your friend. I'm one of them. Would you care to be friends?
Keep a gratitude list and make sure to include the names of the people who would miss you.
PrettyTroubles · 26-30, F
But why should I live for them? They don’t actually care and I’m suffering it’s like a waste @HungJury
@PrettyTroubles You're right. You are the type thst should do us all a favor. The sooner the better. Waste not want not.
PrettyTroubles · 26-30, F
Yup by living here I’m taking too much space
Ryanoliver2011 · 26-30, M
If you find out be sure to let me know:/
It depends on what’s bothering you. I would have to know you to be able to help
Ryanoliver2011 · 26-30, M
Have you tried depression meds?
Ryanoliver2011 · 26-30, M
@PrettyTroubles naw they aren’t, it’s just a matter of finding the right one for you. Why do you say they are poison?
PrettyTroubles · 26-30, F
They make me more sick than anything
Ryanoliver2011 · 26-30, M
Maybe you need to try a different one. That could have been a side effect @PrettyTroubles
Antidepressants did it for me.
@PrettyTroubles Yeah I had to go through a lot of them. Have you tried wellbutrin (bupropion)?
PrettyTroubles · 26-30, F
Yup that one made me lactate @canusernamebemyusername
@PrettyTroubles Whoa. Interesting effect. Well if you ever wanted to do that on purpose you have an option. Have you tried any of the tricyclics? Antipsychotics can be used too but both of those can have a higher side effect profile. I have been on both of them so I have some experience with them.
Thanks for Best Answer. That helps me to see my value.
I would love to talk.
