How old were you when you first experienced suicidal thoughts?

[DrowningWithin]

I was 5, I had started self harming by elementary school

 

[Praestat_Mori]

Early 40s, after a big failure in life.

That made me suicidal.

 

[mayayo]

14 when I had anxiety attacks just before going to school on a regular basis, thought I'd rather die than keep going

 

[Tommen Baratheon]

Must be around 16.

I was around 12 years I think

 

[Boots2Scoots]

I was around 8 years old. I spent a lot of time alone as a child and was bullied for being fat, stinky, and wearing my dad's hand-me-downs. I always knew of hanging as that was what you always hear about in regards to CTB. Haven't been able to shake it since. Had times where it was better but a day hasn't gone by where it hasn't crossed my mind at least once.

distinctly remember being around 7 and praying that i would die, then a really shitty ctb attempt at age 10? started sh at 13-14.

 

[SleepingSheep]

About 20, possibly much younger, but I don't remember much. At the time, I was isolated in my room, alone, very anxious, depression. I started looking for CTB intensively.
