Feeling suicidal is not a character flaw, and it doesn&#8217;t mean you&#8217;re crazy, weak, or flawed. It just means you have more pain than you can handle right now. <\/span><b>However, with time and support, you can overcome your problems.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Pain and suicidal feelings will pass.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember that most of the people that you look at with admiration and see as talented, successful, smart, etc.have been in your situation before.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No matter your situation, there are people who need you, places where you can make a difference, and experiences that can remind you that life is worth living. It takes real courage to face death and come back from the brink. You can use this courage to face life, learn coping skills to overcome depression, and find the strength to continue;<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your emotions are not fixed \u2013 they are constantly changing. <\/span><b>How you feel today will not be the same as how you felt yesterday or how you will feel tomorrow or next week.<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your absence will create grief and suffering in the lives <\/span><b>of your friends and loved ones.<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>There are many things you can achieve in your life.<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>There are many things that will delight <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">you.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Your power to experience pleasurable emotions <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is equal to your power to experience sad emotions.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>If You Have Suicidal Thoughts and Feelings<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Things to do:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Talk to someone everyday, preferably face to face<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

The intense emotional pain you are currently experiencing may distort your thinking, making it difficult for you to see possible solutions or connect with people who can offer support. Therapists, counselors, friends, or loved ones can help you see solutions that may not be apparent to you.
