Thread title. I need some ideas seeing as I can only do this once.

I've wanted to kill myself countless times, often daily, and if there were some way to do it totally painlessly that I had easy access to, I probably would have done it years ago. I wish I could tell you that it's only temporary, but I know that even when it gets better, it never completely goes away. Maybe I'm just bipolar, but there have been so many times when I went from having the best day of my life to wanting to die in a matter of minutes. What's always kept me alive, though, is my family, God, a little bit of hope, and a little bit of fear. I know that my family, ironically the ones most likely to depress me so badly in the first place, would only get worse without me. I allow myself to doubt it at times, but when my mind is clear, I know it's true. I know, even though it rarely feels like it, that there are many people who would be devastated if I were gone (I think a distorted version of this is the reasoning behind many murder-suicides -- "I love you too much to let you live without me after I kill myself"). I believe that God has entrusted me, and all of us, with a mission, and that our lives are on loan from Him. To abandon that mission and to throw away all His gifts is, I think, a slap in the face to Him, and I don't want to have to account for it before Him. I have some hope for the future, of a better life, though this doesn;t figure in nearly as much as I used to. Instead, I've been slowly realizing over the last few years a philosophy that I encapsulate as "The future never comes; it's always the present." Life isn't like a movie, where we get to have montages and cutaways whenever the writers need to make a big change and can't figure out how to show the transition. We need to be the change. You won't be different tomorrow unless you change today. That can be either incredibly encouraging or incredibly discouraging; often some of both. And fear helps a bit too. As convinced as I am that my belief in God is well-placed, I know that I'm not absolutely certain about it, and there is a chance that I'll end up in a very bad spot if I die now. I don't know for sure what death will bring, so I want to make sure I get something out of life just in case.

I can't tell you everything's going to be all right. All I can do is tell you, one suicidal kid to another, what's kept me alive. And that I wish I was there so I could hug you. Maybe it sounds stupid and trivial and dismissive, but I know that so many of my funks, even the ones lasting months or even years on end, could have been broken with a good hug. I'll also tell you that you probably ought to try and get some good counseling, if not from a professional then from anyone you really trust. I know I should.

HSAT, I must admit I'm curious as to how the vacuum option is supposed to work. Do you mean getting pushed out into the vacuum of space, or putting a vacuum hose down your throat and sucking out all the oxygen? Neither sounds comfortable.

I chose cremation because you can wait until you die of natural causes to be cremated.

Seriously, just... no.

If I ever had to self-terminate, I would do it the ol'-fashioned way: skydiving into someone's living room.

SolidShroom · « **Reply #9 on:** July 13, 2009, 03:34:15 PM »

Do something manly, like eating a whole tub of baked beans.

Weegee · « **Reply #10 on:** July 13, 2009, 03:58:52 PM »

And by "beans", we mean tarantulas.

Luigalaxy · « **Reply #11 on:** July 13, 2009, 06:07:14 PM »

I don't think this is Fear Factor, Weegee.

PaperLuigi · « **Reply #12 on:** July 13, 2009, 06:14:25 PM »

This really isn't something we should joke about guys.

Eat a bunch of habañero, serrano and jalapeño peppers and see what you think then.

You're right. This is something we should argue about angrily.

You're joking, right? This is the coward's way out, and will only leave your loved ones with many unanswered questions. Don't do it!

Glorb · « **Reply #16 on:** July 13, 2009, 07:54:48 PM »

Commiting sepukku to avoid a dishonorable death, on the other hand, is aight.

Weegee · « **Reply #17 on:** July 13, 2009, 09:06:36 PM »

Intriguingly enough, there's currently a thread just like this on 4chan's /b/ of all places. All I can suggest, Kuromatsu, is to get out more. Social interaction does wonders for one's outlook on life, whether you believe so or not.

SolidShroom · « **Reply #18 on:** July 13, 2009, 11:10:48 PM »

Joking about suicide makes it just seem more like the ridiculous thing it really is.

Chupperson Weird · « **Reply #19 on:** July 13, 2009, 11:52:50 PM »

Does this mean "incapacitation" or "decapitation" or what because "incapitation" isn't a word.

Lizard Dude · « **Reply #20 on:** July 14, 2009, 01:32:12 AM »

Ah! I knew something was weird about that title.

TEM · « **Reply #21 on:** July 14, 2009, 10:53:37 AM »

This is the funniest thread so far this year.

Glorb · « **Reply #22 on:** July 14, 2009, 11:06:03 AM »

Wouldn't self-incapacitation just involve immobilizing and/or paralyzing one's self, temporarily or otherwise?

HOLY CRAP WEEGEE VISITS 4CHAN OF ALL PLACES??

Chupperson Weird · « **Reply #23 on:** July 14, 2009, 11:32:12 AM »

Question #1: Yes.

Weegee · « **Reply #24 on:** July 14, 2009, 02:50:24 PM »

If simple incapacitation is Kuro's goal, then a tazer would be ideal. They can be picked up at your local Police Brutality 'R' Us.

TEM · « **Reply #25 on:** July 16, 2009, 12:45:28 PM »

Did he kill himself or what?

Weegee · « **Reply #26 on:** July 16, 2009, 02:54:23 PM »

Let's just hope that the aformentioned 4chan thread isn't Kuro's doing as well:

He was here earlier today.

I hope he doesn't kill himself. A person should have the right to end their life if they want to, but there's always a reason to live.

Chupperson Weird · « **Reply #28 on:** July 16, 2009, 03:44:23 PM »

I disagree.

That is, I don't think people have any business ridding us of themselves.

Glorb · « **Reply #29 on:** July 17, 2009, 11:04:04 AM »

so hold on guys
you mean weegee visits 4chan?
this i did not know

And if Kuro did kill himself, I'd be ****ed. He's a genuinely cool guy with mad artistry skills, neither of which you see very often on the 'net.

Weegee · « **Reply #30 on:** July 17, 2009, 02:25:53 PM »

I second that. If it's of any consolation, it's evident that he was online at 2 AM today.

Forest Guy · « **Reply #31 on:** July 27, 2009, 12:31:43 AM »

Good idea everyone, let's feed into his cry out for attention. People who plan on killing themselves don't go to friggin Super Mario message boards to ask how they should do it. They just do it. Kuromatsu is just being a tool.

Chupperson Weird · « **Reply #32 on:** July 27, 2009, 01:37:20 AM »

Thank you, O wise one, for your shining wisdom displayed here for all to see.

Rao · « **Reply #33 on:** July 27, 2009, 01:41:30 AM »

"He says he's going to kill himself."
"He's obviously trolling."

Probably not advice my mother would give me.

Forest Guy · « **Reply #36 on:** July 27, 2009, 06:59:44 PM »

Really. You seriously think someone who's that depressed and that ready to end their life, when they're not sure how to do it, would come to this website of all places? Give me a break. And I'm the foolish one. Right.

And fun fact, one of my friends who had a long history of depression told me she wanted to commit suicide. I called her out on it and told her to do it, then insulted her repeatedly. Spoilers: She didn't kill herself. She actually felt better after our argument.

Chupperson Weird · « **Reply #37 on:** July 27, 2009, 07:43:10 PM »

And you're totally not vying for attention by showing us all how smart you are.
If you aren't, why don't you structure your approach differently so as not to seem like you are?

Glorb · « **Reply #38 on:** July 27, 2009, 08:21:58 PM »

I have a friend who used to cut herself for attention until she realized she wasn't getting any.

Forest Guy · « **Reply #39 on:** July 27, 2009, 09:50:34 PM »

Ironically, your use of sarcasm earlier was an example of trying to gain attention through feigned elitism.

Chupperson Weird · « **Reply #40 on:** July 27, 2009, 10:57:34 PM »

Nah, sarcasm is just my first general reaction to people acting dumb and a direct reaction to your post. I'm not feigning anything.

Glorb · « **Reply #41 on:** July 28, 2009, 11:58:50 AM »

Obviously you both want attention since you're both posting when you could be keeping your opinions to yourselves.

At this point I'd post a whole bunch of ICE BURN gifs but I can't find it right now so just pretend I did.

PaperLuigi · « **Reply #42 on:** July 28, 2009, 12:06:38 PM »

It's never good to claim you've just ICE BURN'd someone (the gifs are typically posted after the comment by another user). Just post your comment and (if it's clever enough) it'll do the rest.

Rao · « **Reply #43 on:** July 28, 2009, 05:52:09 PM »

FlamingBlueMario · « **Reply #44 on:** July 28, 2009, 10:42:48 PM »

I feel like I'm going to regret posting this but I've notice that Kuromatsu hasn't replied to any of the comments made here. He's either taking notes or just trolling. And I don't understand why Kuromatsu would need to seek attention this way, he gets plenty of it from his awesome artwork. :)

Suicide should never be an option. It's cowardly and pointless. I know for me that I have too many things that I wish to accomplish in this world, and no matter how difficult or daunting they might be, I will complete them. CrossEyed7 said a lot of things that I agree with and you should really listen to him and go see a professional counselor or just talk to someone that you trust. We wish you the best of luck.

I've long felt that if I ever did become suicidal, I probably would resort to reckless self-endangerment instead of straight up killing myself. Mario, on the other hand...
