Death I s Not the Answer........................sk8r

How do you make someone realize that death is not the answer,,, even after they have attempted and failed, seeked treatment, but still these thoughts run through their mind.

Tonight i was faced with some questions... my niece is 15yrs old... attempted suiced last month, has been through treatment .. yes i know its a long road

She does not want to take the meds cause it "masks how she really feels".... I asked her why she would want to feel the way she really feels... it is obviously not a good feeling for her or she would not be attempting suicide

Last Saturday night she was alone and tried it again.. this time sliting her wrists. She told me that she thought of that or jumping infront of a truck.. opting for the wrist sliting.. i thought maybe it was more of a cry for attention... though she insists t wasn't.

She came to talk to me.. willingly today about this.. but we could not finish our talk cause we had company.... I know i will not get much sleep tonight with the thoughts of what she wants to talk about... my first thought was that she wants to come live with me... though i don't think that would solve her problem cause she would only be running from her problems

What is so bad that death looks better than living... I tried to explain to her that the meds she is on are to help her cope for a few years.. getting her past her teenage years.... and how lucky she is to have the option of this drugs... she said to me "What about when i move away and these thougts run through my head and i am all alone and try something and no one is there to find me?" I had no answer but in my mind thought that she would hopefully not be thinking that way when that time came.

Well i feel a sleepless night ahead

Does anyone have any input...?

Date: 11/25/2002 7:20:00 PM  From Authorid: 42945    awwww darlin, this is so sad, to think that one chooses death over living is indeed a terrible situation to be in...and so young at that...I can't begin to understand how they must feel, but at least she has you to talk to hun and I believe that in being able to discuss these problems with someone can be a step in the right direction...let's hope and pray that all will be well for her...hugs Zema

Date: 11/25/2002 7:32:00 PM  From Authorid: 61912    I dont know her nor do I or anyone else really knows whats going on in her mind. Usually you find the people who succesfully commit suicide never give any indications that they are having those thoughts. It often comes a suprise to everyone around them. I myself feel very suicidal and the more I bottle it up the more it becomes a real plan. But if I talk to someone the feelings usually go away. She also needs to understand everybody has a diffent brain chemistry, some people's brains produce more seratonin, dopamine, and or lithium, while others produce less, this accounts for the fact that some people are optimists, and some people are pesimists. These chemicals regulate our own happiness, and there are alot of new and improved medications that can raise or balance these levels. You should encourage her to take her meds, and if they are not working she should talk to her doctor and try different meds, it took me several antidepressants before I found one that worked, different meds affect people more and less effectively than others.....Andy
