How many attempts have you had?

Tbh I can't really remember, I never kept count. I could estimate that there may have been around 20, or a bit less? Because at the time, I didn't end up in hospital through them and they all failed so I didn't count them as proper suicide attempts. When I look back on them now though, I know they were. If you try to hurt yourself, with the intention of killing yourself, no matter how lame or serious it turns out to be, that counts as an attempt in my eyes. Just because I never caused any serious damage to myself, doesn't mean they didn't count.
 
Depends on what you mean by attempts, because standing on the edge of something high and trying to muster up the courage to jump is something that happen a lot. If you mean things that have resulted in hospital treatment, then 2, both when I was in my teens.
 
1....was a bit half hearted planning a 2nd better attempt but don't know whether to keep going for a bit in the hope I can repair stuff with my ex boyfriend of to cut my losses and go for it.
 
Two within a few days, the first was very nearly successful, second I was stopped before doing it again but both times had a trip to hospital.
 
Five.

The first, i was 12, was more of a cry for attention, and the second was a couple of weeks after that.

The the third occurred when i was 17 was the most extreme, If not for my high tolerance to certain things I would certainly be dead, in any case that attempt failed.

The fourth and fifth were in close succession, when i was 18.

Dude with my method of choice if I had any attempts I wouldnt be here. seriously considering one hopefully i dont but I have a feeling its going to happen and it was always meant to happen.
 
I've had too many to count since I was 3 years old, but I had two where I got caught, one I had to be hospitalized for. 4 that I have attempted in the last six years with the sole intent to die as painfully (and quickly) as possible, with full blown depression, 1 of those was fairly recently. The next time I will succeed by any means necessary.
