It’s been 5 years exactly today that I haven’t attempted or even thought about suicide. I wish to give advice to someone going through this. Don’t end your life just because of a moment’s unhappiness, you are in an emotional crisis and realize this too shall pass. Suffering is unnecessary and your doing also. Enjoying this current momentum is essential. Focus on the positive in life, on fixing your issues before taking your life. Because death is permanent and final. I’ve had attempted twice to take mine and it’s more painful than what you are currently living now.
Congratulations on your feat! I think we've all thought about suicide from time to time during tough struggles, but there's generally always a light at the end of the tunnel. This is coming from someone who is not very optimistic.
As someone who is dysthymic and has regular suicidal ideation I know exactly how it feels to go down that spiral. I'm glad you managed to get yourself beyond it and continue to live with a more positive outlook!
