dude.... u should tell someone close to u bout ur condition... atleast they can help you if they feel something is not right w u

I agree. It is a chemical imbalance in the brain. TS has no reason whatsoever to do such a thing as his life is going pretty well. You must consult a psychiatrist. It doesn't mean only mad people see psychiatrists. Medication could help to correct the chemical imbalance. You must do something bcs according to a very experienced sinseh he said depression caused women to end up with cancers and men go mad.

For me, the thought appeared when I'm not occupied with anything, when my mind wandering around. I just keep myself busy to reduce the thought.

get a leave from the company !! go holiday chat with some girl... drink some beers !! I don really know how but consult and believe in the name of your god..loving will protect you !! talk to your relative or parent

your life pretty much better than me and most of us..be appreciate and grateful !! bro !!

sounds like you're living a really really boring life. get out of your comfort zone. do crazy stuff like camping alone in a jungle for a month or volunteer for reserve army. put yourself in danger. get in situations where you have to fight in order to survive. let external threat kick start your survival instinct to remind you that for some reason, you have to live. challenge yourself.

Your self description describes most of the okay things. What about the not okay things? Anything troubling you?

Dear TS, hope all's well with you.

It's good that you are aware and is actively seeking help regarding your state of mind.

Depression have different effects on people, some can stand it, others cant. Looking at your post, I cant infer much, but perhaps you are lacking the sense of achievement / appreciation in what you do, and that can take a toll on someone. Maybe by surrounding yourself with positive, like-minded people will help u have a sense of belonging / achievement and make you feel happier and more content.

If all else fails, I would highly recommend that you seek a qualified professional to help u in this matter.

Personally speaking, I've had some friends who were suffering in similar ways like you, they can't quite pinpoint whats bothering them but its always there at the back of their minds. But one thing I can see is that they delayed getting their treatment, and when they finally do, you can really see a visible change in their life/outlook to things.

Hope this helps, have a good Monday afternoon!

why not find a psyhiatric?

or maybe tell your parent

maybe you depress

maybe you lack of sleep? i heard lack of sleep can lead to sucide

I would start with, saying, go and see a psychiatrist. Calling Befrienders (03-79568144 or 03-79568145) in the interim would be helpful as well. I know your call was not answered, but try again later or tomorrow.

My opinion:-
It seems, that you are missing something in life. Likelihood, a partner to share your thoughts and feelings. Someone to talk to and cry on.

Since you have pretty much; fulfilled other part of life, money, education, etc.

Whenever the thought comes, just think of other worse depressed individual with even greater hardship. If they can overcome the suicide thought and work thru it....you could as well...you are a better person...remember that.

Dont want to nag too long...take care mate...cheers.

Yup, it's a disease and not easy to be cure. Doc will prescribe anti-depression medicine for the patients.

Good luck TS. I heard sun bath will help a little.

Didn't read through all the comments. Anyway...

First thing u must know and always remember, we are all generally very fortunate to live in the society free of war and suffering all time, so we should be appreciate more than most majority in this world.
Secondly, I gone through the same thing, still having some nowadays but at least i consider it control-able.

Not sure about chemical reaction or hormones in the body or brain,
it is always best to seek consultation from counselor or psychologist but understandable that most people don't, even for myself.

Since u have the thinking to overcome it, and i assume no one around u knew about this, I guess the main method u can depend on is self help.

How: Basically, negative thoughts rise only when we are alone or when we have the time to let our thinking roam free. So u need to eliminate the spaces for ur brain to go wild. To do that, keep looking for friends and good people that speak interesting stuff, or join a community to perform some beneficial stuff like volunteer to help people, even if u feel lazy or dont feel like doing it, u have to force urself. Because its a battle between ur will and ur brain.
If u doesn't have a lover, look for one if u feel like u are lonely or need someone really close with u. But bear in mind that don't look for one just because u wan to fill ur emptiness, make sure u ready to commit into r/s and work out. Although this is not recommended since u having this negative thoughts in u now. Still, depends on ur will.

Not sure what u mean by doesn't work out when u pick a hobby. Perhaps u wan to let me know more.
Try out a balanced life, in the sense of working hard and play hard.
Since u are a working adult, u should find time to play.
Games or anything that make u feel fun and its wasting time. Yes its wasting time but it definitely beneficial to ur pleasure and enjoy.

Finally, don't keep urself in the environment where ur brain will keep going wild. You have to go outside and mix with people who said interesting stuff

yep,i agreed with frontierzone - how about those not-okay-things. Eg. low self esteem issues? your own physical looks,many times hampers ones confidence,eg. like going bald(especially for men)can makes ones feels unconfident to go out and socialize. at times its bipolar and mood swing problems. if you got killed in the battlefield against terrorist or talibans,at least you died as a hero and the country's flag would be drap on your casket but to commit suicide is indeed far more sad and very painfull for your loves one who are still alive and have to pick up the peices and move on - thats the most painfull. when any one kill themselves,the pain is just very short for him/her but the pain endures by their loves ones can continues years after years - and that you call it grieving. my sis took her own life 2 years ago and at times,...its still quite fresh in my mind. its painfull,...very painfull. so dont do it and stop thinking of doing it and start anew with your life. you just got one shot at your life so try make it good - TRY.

Are you perhaps an atheist?
Might give a tried to believed in god, may the void in your heart be fullfilled with god loves.

If possible, find a girlfriend or a mate that you can talk to.. Like you can spend your time on computer and find people to talk to about your life.. from your information you got nothing to worry about.. money no proble, family no problem and is a top student...is it you're too stress about studies? I have a friend used to suffer from depression because she got no friends to talk to and the reason is because she's a bookworm.. try to socialize and make your life happier... you can take sometime to travel oversea alone or with friend.. find someone who can accompany you, go take a look around the world.. suicidal is not a good idea .. go some country that you wish to visit.. and look at other's people life.. example, go africa and visit the poor child, try to communicate and understand them.. they are fighting to live so dont waste your life. Get your suicidal thoughts away from yourself.. always remember there are so many things in this world you never know about.. Give yourself sometime.. if you still have the suicidal thoughts, please don't afraid of it.. if you dont want to see a doctor then try to communicate with people around you.. dont care what people say bad about you.. try to be someone that appreciate their life because there are people who fighting for their life every second from the moment u read this comment. i'm 17 and i used to have it, and to be honest i've tried it. I almost died but i survived , i never really see hell but i know i regretted doing it. You have money, go travel. You have time, Go use it wisely, do things you want.. you can find me and talk to 0178834613 anytime

Suicide thoughts happens to many of us than we care to admit. But this option is not cool, if u do have such plan why not give yourself more options on top of it

- go to poor stricken country and help; join an organisation that does this and apply for it. Do until u die.
- become am soldier and aggressively ask for active duty
- sorry no more ideas....

Yes. Go see a doc. Depression, suicidal thoughts is same as flu, fever. Left untreated, it can worsen. For now stay here. Talk to close friends to share this. Go to church/temple for communion if you have such faith.

Hang in there. You r not alone. When you hate yourself for being late, am sure you have this voice inside, angrily speaks to u. Now try changing this into a sexy woman's voice, talking to u in the sexiest way ever.

Try meditation, keep an open mind. Coz hey, what have u got to lose, right?

EDIT: wanna add more. Do u know that depressions, etc tend to b some kind of turning point for a person. Emotionally inside it is struggling to grow, to become better. If u do read, try books like THE ROAD LESS TRAVELLED, or THE GIANT WITHIN by Anthony Robbins See which approach u like best. The first is very logical and spiritual, the latter is more scientific, technique based. It tends to give you immediate positive effect when you follow through on the suggested methods.

Hope this helps.
