Suicide is never the only option. See the options. REFRAME - RETHINK - RESPOND
You are not powerless. A lot of us have black and white thinking in a world that’s full of gray areas. We make the mistake of thinking that the only way to get out of the situation and pain is for everything to be fixed, now. This is where reframing comes in.
First you need to stabilize yourself enough so you can think logically instead of emotionally. How you do that depends on you. NO DRUGS OR ALCOHOL Taking that path will always prevent you from gaining the insight and coping skills needed to REFRAME, RETHINK, RESPOND in order to handle situations in a way that is helpful instead of losing all hope and wanting to die or not be here.
Instead, think of things you can easily do right now. Take a shower, watch funny or interesting videos or shows. Breathe in some fresh air, play a game...something simple, not overwhelming and that you can do now. A healthy distraction to help your mind clear just enough to accept new information. Keep your mind open to other ways of looking at situations and all the ways to respond, before you decide suicide is the only option. Let yourself see all the options.
Reframe. Rethink. Respond.
Let's look at some examples.
"I failed again."
This one seems to be the most common across all ages and genders. Rethinking and Responding will depend on the "failure", but Reframing will be the same or similar. You'll be looking at what it takes to accomplish this, are you doing it, and if so, are there other factors that make it impossible to accomplish this? If you aren't, are you willing to make the changes needed to accomplish this?
