[Poll] How much suicide attempts did u do?

[odette]

I personally did never do an attempt to suicide, but i read allot story's of people that did do allot attempts, it makes me really curious and how is it possible to fail like 10 times, is it a form of attention so u dont wanna die? or is it really hard to kill your self without good preperation?

It is extremely difficult to kill yourself. We have evolved for billions of years to make it extremely difficult. That's why you have forums like this one spending so much time discussing methods, because it is a very difficult thing to do successfully.

4/5 serious ones and loads of half asked ones, completely get where other folk are coming from with the instinctual urges. Going from sad to happy so drastically is a killer too.

I failed a lot because I used to think that just overdosing would be sufficient and I couldn't overcome my survival instinct enough to do full suspension hanging or jump off a bridge. If I had known about partial suspension hanging, I would've died at 14 or 15. Also, some of them were very serious and I did with the full intention of dying, others I was happy with either dying or getting help. But now I know what I'm doing and can make sure I won't get found in time, I don't think I will fail next time. I also don't have hope for the future.

Yea same I failed OD, can't really hold urine after n it's well annoying meeting people. You always have no hope? or sometimes have a good day?

Yeah, it's a pain. Overdoses are hard to do. It's silly, but so many people (including yours truly) sometimes take suicide advice from movies. Well, I did when I was younger, anyway. But overdosing in movies makes it seem easy.

And sometimes I do have hope, but life has a great way to ruin that quickly.
