How old are you?

51

51. That's long enough.

I'm also 51. Way too long.

This thread is the type of shit that gets studied by psychology students and put on NYT. I can already see the headlines.

45. So many 18 too 22 year old. They don't deserve suffering at that age. The modern world is too blame. Bring back no mobile phones. No technology. 4 TV channels. Times were so much simpler in the 80s. Feel for today's youth.

Mine teen nieces just lay around on the couch or their beds on their phones reading about the latest calamities all over the world. It's too much misery to be exposed to at a young age. I'm glad I had it limited to the 6 o'clock news for a half hour at their age.

I'll be 24 in a month. I've had suicidal thoughts since I was 12, I've attempted 2-3 times before but had SI issues and couldn't go through with it, I've tried 4 different therapists and only one didn't actively suck/make my situation worse, and despite doing all of the right things people push as solutions or as coping methods (trying therapy multiple times, using mental health apps, using drugs, not using anything and being extremely health conscious, working hard and getting good grades all through high school and college despite it all, getting a nice job with benefits, trying to talk to friends and family), I'm still very suicidal. I don't think it's ever going to go away or lighten up, and frankly I'm tired of being alive in spite of myself. But base animal survival instinct is a hell of a thing to try to override.

25. I made a pact to kill myself at 19 if I wasn't happy with the quality of my life, but I didn't have any way to go about it, and I was too scared to anyway. I wish I killed myself then though.
