Suicide struggles

Lulu
over 3 years ago

Hi I'm Lulu. I'm 24 and struggling badly with suicide thoughts which I've had for so long it almost feels normal having them. But lately I'm thinking about it a lot more and feeling it more. It's a feeling like I want to do it soon and I'm feeling like I want to harm myself. I see windows and think of jumping out, I see knives and think of stabbing myself. I've also began thinking of planning to end everything. I'm not used to such severe and aggressive thoughts and feelings. I need some help but don't know who else to turn to... My mother is dead and my family don't understand or want me. My gp is no help either. I told her what was going on and she suggested pills but hasn't bothered to help me further. I feel like no one cares or wants to help me. I feel alone and like it's all going to be over for me soon.

Suicide is selfish and I don't want to be one of those people but I know my limitations and I know I'm nowhere near strong enough to deal with this myself but who can I turn to? I can't do this. Not alone. But no one around me cares or wants to help.

Please help me guys. I don't want it to end this way for me.

    Hi Lulu,

    I've found the text service SHOUT (85258) really helpful when the noise in my head gets so loud and convincing I need to reach out to a stranger to stop it. 

    I've had bad anxiety and body dysmorphia (due to being sensitive to the sensation of clothing) since I was a child and sometimes it gets too much.  I don't want to worry close family, have no close friends, and hate phoning people so this works well for me when nothing else is working.

    Maybe try it?  It's a 24hr service Slight smile
