How many attempts have you had?

[HakunaMatata]

I doubt i can count the two or more silly attempts where i bottled it.

 

[Ilovecatsmeow]

Fourteen actually. Man, I suck at killing myself.

 

[LDA]

Only two really.

 

[Pdoc]

i have had two attempts but looking back they really weren't that well planned i just ended out in the ER and the usual followup here in Australia which is a week or two in a clinic

 

[frantic]

7. The last one in October almost did it. I woke up after three days in the ICU.

 

[The_8th_Wonder]

Just one amazingly.

 

[gentlelady]

Obviously not enough. =)

 

[Cariad_Bach]

Obviously not enough. =)

:eek: Silverlady!!

three committed attempts.

numerous 'mini' or 'practice' attempts. If they count.

I believe that if you have had even one attempt you shold give up on this thought process completly. If you merely attempted you are clearly SCREAMING for someone to help you, so please find help, find a buddy in here or something. Thank you. I on the other hand have not attempted, I have merely come up with two extravagant plans. The first which was enacted and aborted at the last second, due to my respect for VETs . Either way this new plan once enacted has a failsafe that cannot be reversed and thus must be completed so at that point I guess it would then be one, hopefully completed and not left mamed or then it would be a half time . Lmao !!!

I'm typicaly an all or nothing guy. I have had a few outbursts with various types of intervention, but generally the main issue I see for many of us ... is acknowleding the HELL we live with ... living like so on the very edge. Day in day out ... These "long and consistant" bouts of depression and mental instability ... how such makes us more prone to keep falling as we keep trying ...

If you get my drift? It's a pretty serious condition ... hey?

[tobeornottobe]

i think like 10.

 

[josielovely]

Close to 15

 

[skinnylove911]

i would say about 3-4 times (once when i was taken to hospital by my boyfriend) and the others very minor attempts

 

[salander]

Two very pathetic attempts because I was deep down too scared to do it right and they were probably cries for help. One of those got me sectioned though. No more cries for help for me - I have researched it and will do it properly this time.

 

[emily83]

5 or 6, 1 of which left me wheelchair bound.

but they all left me in hospital for quite some time

 

[skinnylove911]

about three-four times, they haven't been serious i think i have been called parasuicides

 

[Stranger1]

3 The first one I almost succeeded..When I use to have friends they saved me..

 

[Els]

one landed in ICE the others were just failed misuably hadnot planed proply the last one was hospitalized for 5 weeks

 

[INFERIOR LADY]

Only 5. My family members who caught me at my last attempt said that they thought I actually DIED for a couple or few seconds but I don't know I don't remember much about right after my last one? If I did die it was only blankness then. Which would be a major RELIEFE to me! Cuz I would NOT want to be in hell if it existed or in heaven with the mysgonist abusive 'dirty book' god either if they existed!
