Dear, you are lucky to have only gotten that for a response. I have a congenital mental disorder that has forced me to deal with thoughts of suicide, homicide, violence, nonsensical behavior and out right hallucinatory experiences to go with these lovely psychotic episodes since the day I became self-aware. When I got out of the psych ward, I didn't even have anyone I could call 'friend' to greet me. What I did have were delightfully charming classmates who tried to push me back over the edge or in a couple cases even try to finish the job. If you really think they are your friends, explain your emotions and experiences to them to help them understand. If they still give you shit for it, find new friends that aren't so pig headed. To those of you charming idiots who say that an ATTEMPT is just a cry for attention and a sign of weakness, try almost going through with it then having to live with the guilt and self-hatred of having almost betrayed and hurt everyone you care about. It's the hardest thing in the world to put down the knife and convince yourself to keep going after you've rationalized your own death already.

FYL, you really need some new friends. I completely get what you're going through. I have clinical depression myself, and was in a pysch ward for awhile, and I'm still trying to get it over. It is not emo. I never cut. I didn't do anything for attention. I tried to draw attention away from it by hiding my feelings and pretending to be happy. I was ashamed to say I was depressed. All of the people making fun of people with depression are insensitive. Maybe she doesn't have an account and called herself "emogurl" like her friends called her. Stop thinking you know everything. Depression is serious. If she was in a hospital, then it's the real deal. They're trained experts, they can tell if someone is faking. OP, if you want better friends, try other people like yourself. I love my friends with normal lives, but they don't understand. My best friends are the people I met in the pysch ward, and the kids in my group therapy sessions, because they actually understand what I'm going through. I hope things go better for you.

Boo ******* hoo. I've never told anyone that they're adequate or tried to be nice to them when they threaten suicide or think it's serious enough to be in a psych ward. All I tell them is it's a dumb idea and they're idiots for thinking about it. They'll just go bitch to someone else for hugs. Down the lane, not across the street.

THANK YOU #99. it's about time someone else here spoke the truth. stop jumping to conclusions. and stop suggesting suicide techniques... "down the lane, not across the street!!!" you're all so ******* immature.

All failed suicide attempts are solely for attention. All of them! if you fail at suicide you werent actually trying to do it, you wanted attention. YDI you annoying emo pile of fail.

OP: I'm sorry that you were in a depression clinic for so long, and Hun, you need friends who actually give a shit about you. PEOPLE: She was being 'emo' because she was DEPRESSED you DUMBASSES. Her 'FRIENDS' thought she would be less 'emo' because she was in a DEPRESSION HOSPITAL, which (hopefully) helped her be less depressed DEPRESSION IS A ILLNESS, IF SHE WAS BULLSHITTING, THEN WHY WAS SHE IN A HOSPITAL TO HELP SAID ILLNESS? I'M SURE SHE WOULDN'T FULL SHAT THAT ******* FAR IF SHE WAS JUST BULLSHITTING. My brother recently went through the same thing, and it was awful to see him go through it. Your friends may just not understand the extent as to which you were feeling sad, you should first make sure that they know how ******* sad you were, and then if they're still being douches, leave them. I'm glad to hear that you're still Alive, everyone deserves a chance to live hun, and everyone needs someone to talk to about what they're going through. I'm glad you either stopped from killing yourself, or that someone stopped you. Depression isn't an easy thing to go through, but if you remain positive, there's a light at the end of the tunnel that WILL pull you through.

ydi for being an emo ass hole

As a mild bipolar who experienced only a few episodes of acute depression, I still feel for you. Get some other friends. The ones you have don't seem to deserve the term. True friends will stand by you and be understanding and forgiving of your lowest moments, no matter the crap you pull when the depression makes you totally irrational. They'll also support you and do their best to help you get out of it. I hope you have a few of the kind, or wish you to find some very soon. Good luck to you and take care.
