Discussion How old are you and how long have you been depressed or suicidal?

[Miku _fanboy101]

I've been suicidal since I was about 5-6. I remember trying to CTB then at that age and I've been like this for my whole life.

I'm 29 and I've been depressed since 13.
I've been suicidal for more than a year now.
