Do you think of suicide and do you think it is normal to think about it from time to time?

I think that if at times a thought about it flashes through your mind it's ok so long as YOU kNOW DEEP DOWN YOU WILL NOT DO IT. If it's constant thoughts and DEEP thoughts and you could or would do it then I see it is a MAJOR problem and the person needs to get help..

Yeah, I agree. I think everyone thinks about the easy way out at some point in there lives but if it is a constant thought process and a daily thing then you may want to seek some kind of help. I know I have thought about it and a lot of people I have asked have thought about it but only fleetingly.

Talk of such things can sometimes be a cry for help homie. People that are really commited to do the act don't tell anyone, they just do it. Although this thought may be normal or not, it is carrying out the task that makes the difference.

Confused I guess you never can tell...has the thought ever crossed your mind,Carol? I think everyone has thought about it at some point but I may be wrong...

Yes homie it has my dear friend. I myelf have lived a very deprresing life. But through it all, have learned through positive outlook I can most of the time overcome the triggers. I was an only child, brought up by rules of (what felt like) ancient times. But, those that raised me need to be commended for such. Sometimes it is the world we live in and the goal whether reachable or not that we make for ourselves. I truly believe that.

Most excellent topic homie. Shows that we all are human and have such triggers and problems in out lives.
