Discussion What do you do when you have really bad suicidal thoughts? pick your top 4

[guineapiglover8503]

personally I draw, listen to music, masturbate, talk to friends, or cry

 

[vitbar]

Distract myself with games, or youtube mostly. On the more negative side I listen to sad music, cry, and wander the streets.

 

[EternalShore]

Sleeping is nicer than being awake when one is stuck in such an awful rut and feeling terrible~ >_<

oh? what music? I listen to CAS or stuff like clairo, baby bugs, etc

 

[Depressive_Thoughts]

i hang out with my girfriend, listen to music, but its getting hard to keep up with the thoughts...

 

[TheHolySword]

stare at a wall and dissociate

 

[EvisceratedJester]

Listen to music and daydream

 

[guineapiglover8503]

Some Grunge, New Wave, Placebo, Radiohead, and a bunch of random songs, mostly rock-adjacent.

i am a big radiohead fan!!!! i love their music so much

 

[hardcorebisnis]

hop on here or dissociate

 

[Malfunction]

Music, World of Warcraft, Left4Dead.
When possible I go for a walk.

 

[dreamking]

I listen to this until I either disassociate with life, or fall asleep...
Stone in Focus

 

[music]

pretty much only the music option. that, roll around in bed, daydream, and scroll through this site for fifteen minutes. not healthy

 

[fuewybfunsfoiceoi]

If I'm motivated I practice my ctb method, and scroll this site

 

[Namelesa]

I mostly either vent on here, self harm, try to sleep, eat something that is chocolate or masturbate.

 

[ijustwishtodie]

None of them. I don't see my suicidal thoughts as something that I need to temporarily get rid of by coping because, firstly, my suicidal thoughts don't really cause me pain as it's just a by product of the reality of life and, secondly, nothing that I can do would get rid of it anyway (though I don't want to get rid of it as it gives me utility).

 

[SoulWhisperer]

Talk to my online friends as #1, of if it's low I'd just listen to music or play games I think. It all depends on how bad the sentiment is at the given moment.

 

[Loaf of bread]

When I have bad suicidal thoughts, I just sit there and suffer. I havent found any coping to be effective

 

[L9my]

stay in the shower or if possible the bath, and wallow in the thoughts until i have to leave

because most of my time is spent distracting myself from them, but it's getting harder
i kinda answered the question backwards, sorry

 

[PhilosopherInAV0id]

I sleep, to at least temporarily forget it all. A lot. People never believe me when I say one of my hobbies is sleeping, or think its a joke.

Other than that, depressingly self-hate music, killing things on games with a stupidly low difficulty setting, and thinking about life/death

 

[darkenmydoorstep]

Come on here or try to sleep

fair, and it's not the most unhealthy option

when I had time for gaming, I would hop on VR and play bonelab or pavlov to take out my anger and it really helps

 

[sximii]

Sleep, self harm, video games, smoke

 

[JesiBel]

Selfharm, feel some pain and remember what a failure I am and how much I hate myself.. And then cry.

It's strange, but after releasing so many negative emotions, one feels a little more relieved.

crying really helps. I have forced myself to stop cutting but that would also help me a ton. so would drinking

 

[The Unanswered Q]

Listen to music, sleep, daydream, or self harm

 

[human909]

I think most of the times i would just cry and listen to music and then go on this site, it helps and it doesn't at the same time, i just can't wait to ctb this year.

 

[guineapiglover8503]

i am thinking that I should have put daydream on there. I personally daydream about dying, or if im listening to music I just daydream about performing the song im listening to xd

 

[Lo$t95]

Music, drinking/drugs until blackout disassociate and sometimes cut a little bit.
