1.

I was a very confident lady back then when I was in elementary school, but of course developed social anxiety. I wasn't aware of this disorder yet. Then by High School It kicked in, going through 4 years of it. Then I discovered I had the first mental breakdown following from the suicidal thoughts that I had when I was 16. I idealized suicide by jumping through a tall building. What ended up was me, after reading an article on what hell is like --- I drank almost a bottle of Kerosene.

2.

The next attempted suicide I did, this one was sure of me to die, but it was unplanned.. instead they found me quickly. I drank a bottle full of pills that would have sustained me for like 6 months then all I remembered that after that, no need to drink water -- I instantly fell and blacked out unconscious till they found me and took me to the hospital. I was 22 at that time. Images 4

3.

The third one was really weird, because it was at the time I was really manic-depressive that I began to have delusions and was in psychosis. I believed that it was the second coming of Christ and I was Jesus. Oh my it was super unpleasant. Then a pastor came to me and did stuff. I was totally thinking that only those who committed suicide can go to heaven that time so I pushed earphones head jack unto my eye and the last thing I saw was me unconscious and my eye that bled unto the bed.

Thankfully, I when I woke up, it totally all felt like a dream, it seemed like it didn't happen and I imagined that someone from our family donated their eyes to mine and did an eye surgery. I just imagined that. I really didn't consider this suicide as intentional for me because I was really out of my head and I was terribly psychotic. I was 22 that time.

A year after, I encountered being in home care but it seemed like a mental hospital for me because they were going to lock you up and just give you food. I remember being confined in the other small "confinement" room that didn't even have a comfort room. It was so weird I found that doctors owned that place.

I'd tell you to never ever go to a mental hospital in the Philippines because this is what it looks like:

Being sent in home care, someplace that also seemed like a semi-mental hospital -- it was better to be sent there rather than those places.

4.

Now everything was all good when 2020 came for me. I found solutions from all my depressive tendencies and I was so glad. Not until I reached the late November 2020 where I had yet another Manic episode and then by February 2021, I had suicidal thoughts again because my social anxiety triggered again and I couldn't fix it yet. I was thinking of jumping off our university's building from the 5th floor but I'm not able to yet. Then May 2021 came and I had an opportunity at another house, I filled my throat with some pills again. But this time, the pills were very limited.

I can tell you that -- swallowing not enough pills could hurt so much you can't stand up straight or your body always keeps falling after waking up and then you go asleep again. I was rushed to the hospital.

Then now, The past days I have been thinking about suicide again.. but up to that point, hanging? the last part I did, it was my 4th attempt.


How bout yours?

I don't want another one with bipolar in the family : p
haha, despite bipolarity and social anxiety I find someone nice. I'm glad I entered this forum finally meet people like me. Maybe before we both leave this world we can exchange stories of how we got to this point.

I have not had a proper attempt, however last year I did reach a point of desperation, and I intended to exit this world, but I did not get very far. I was not prepared and I was worried about failing and being left with damage. I wanted to ctb by hanging. That is the closest that I have gotten to ctb. I have been suicidal for many years and at that point I had just turned 20. It was 10 months ago and I have not tried since. I wish I could fall asleep and never wake again.

I've tried hanging but not in a serious way, more like to see how it feels and it was not pleasant at all. My head felt so much pressure.
And i also tried asphyxiation with a bag over my head because I have read a few articles about people who ctb that way so I wanted to see how that worked. Definitely not an option anymore.

I haven't tried because failing suicide is more common than succeeding with it. It requires a lot of homework before committing to it, due to the consequences you face if it backfires.

i took an overdose of paracetamol when i was 21 went to the hospital in a ambulance was violently sick with blood in it i basically damaged my stomach lining now i wake up every other night in pain needing to burp.
second time was when i was 32 years old i took an overdose of olanzapine went into respiratory arrest, i was completely unconscious for 2 days never felt a thing, unlucky my mum found me and rang a ambulance otherwise i would of die peacefully in my sleep, and of course my doctor has banned me from having olanzapine so i can't just overdoes and die easily

First attempt when I was 18. I tried to hang myself in a forest but failed.

The next one will be with SN and I have everything needed.

Can you actually die from olanzapine overdose? I doubt it

4 times. First time I was 7 (almost 8). I walked in front of a bus. At that age it seemed like it was going fast but looking back it clearly wasn't. Instead of really crashing into me it more so basically went overtop of me. Not the wheels but I basically just slid underneath the bumper of the bus. Road rash and a burn from something under the bus but that was it. Twice at 17. First time OD'd on Tylenol. Genius. Second time was technically self harm from cutting but the hospital misinterpreted it and it wasn't a serious cut at all. 4 years ago I OD'd on antidepressants and benzos. I took a lot but it was several hours later and I was found unconscious still and ended up in ICU.

Which antidepressants and benzos did you overdose on?

At 20, tried with hanging. Big failure, as the wood that was supposed to carry my body broke.

Thinking backwards, I don't understand how I thought this could work. I guess desperation make you do silly things... I perfectly remember thinking "oh fuck it" before jumping. Like I give up on life. And then nothing happened in the end. At least, I had no real injuries and the life went on...

The day after I almost tried from another spot, but could not do it at the end...

10 years later, it went the same : everything was prepared for hanging, but I could not do it. Afraid of pain, survival instinct...

Nowadays I think that dying with hanging would have been very painful, so maybe it was for the best that I couldn't do it to the end.

If you jump down when you hang yourself I think it basically decapitates your skull from your spine so you die quick. Most people die from that than actual strangulation.
