Discussion Anyone not depressed but extremely suicidal?

[SHThrowAway213]

I am not depressed in the slightest, but I am still planning my death.

 

[schopenh]

Yep, although I have an overwhelming amount of chronic neuropathic pain

 

[everosity]

Yup

 

[Mm80]

How would you separate the two things (genuine question )

 

[Wayfaerer]

That's an interesting combination.

 

[TheQ22]

I alternate between thinking I'm not depressed at all but want to ctb, and other days tink I am depressed.

Maybe I'm not in the best shape mentally to know the difference.

 

[woxihuanni]

Me.

That depends on your definition.
I am extremely suicidal due to mental health problems, but I am in no way depressed. I do not suffer from low moods that often.

Definition of ?

Depression always makes me second guess myself. Imposter syndrome is a huge part of depression though.

Just wanna throw it out there that depression can also make you emotionally numb and apathetic, not everyone experiences sadness and melancholy.

I'm pretty sure I've been depressed nonstop since childhood, although was never officially diagnosed. Not that I need to be, it's pretty obvious. I've had some periods of time where I felt ok, but still knew my eventual suicide was inevitable. It's a strange feeling. Like I always knew and accepted it was my destiny.

Relatable. I've felt like this since I was about 14? Sigh...

I've definitely suffered imposter syndrome for years but not realised it.

Same.

 

[Meditation guide]

I'm not depressed, I'm in pain. I have a great interest in life and would now be traveling and doing all sorts of fun things if only I could.

 

[Riadsala]

I'm not quite sure if I have depression. I definitely have symptoms similar to it, but I think they're moreso a result of trauma.

 

[TimeToBiteTheDust]

I feel sad sometimes but not everyday. Today I cried a little but I have al symptoms of depression.

 

[Deathbydemo]

Hmm I don't know. I am definitely experiencing severe anxiety, and possibly PTSD-type symptoms. I'm honestly not sure about depression though. I think if recent events didn't happen, I wouldn't be here. I would still be trying for my son. But unfortunately, things went down the way they did, and here I am. Unable to cope, unable to take the pain every day.... waiting patiently for my SN and hoping some random illness takes me in my sleep.

No, nada,zip on depression. Pain and poor health who's progression is predictable. Want to avoid hospitals or care facilities and die painlessly at home listening to my favorite music. Just a calculated decision.
