*** Why Not Just End It All?

“I AM better off dead than alive.” Who said those words? Someone who didn’t believe in God? Someone who had left God? Someone whom God had left? None of the above. The speaker was the devout but distraught man Jonah.—Jonah 4:3, Today’s English Version.
The Bible doesn’t say that Jonah was about to take his life. Nevertheless, his desperate plea reveals a sobering fact—at times even a servant of God can be overwhelmed by anguish.—Psalm 34:19.
Some youths feel such intense anguish that they see no reason to continue living. They may feel as did 16-year-old Laura, who states: “For years, I have had recurring bouts of depression. I often think about killing myself.” If you know someone who has expressed a desire to end it all—or if you have considered that idea yourself—what can you do? Let’s take a closer look at why such a thought might occur.

*** Behind the Despair
Why would anyone consider taking his or her own life? A number of factors could be involved. For one thing, we live in “critical times hard to deal with,” and many adolescents feel the pressures of life with great intensity. (2 Timothy 3:1) Then, too, human imperfection can cause some to harbor deeply negative thoughts about themselves and the world around them. (Romans 7:22-24) Sometimes this is because of mistreatment. In other cases, a medical issue may be involved. Significantly, in one country it is estimated that more than 90 percent of those who did take their life were suffering from some type of mental illness.
Of course, no one is immune to adversity. Indeed, the Bible says that “all creation keeps on groaning together and being in pain together.” (Romans 8:22) That includes young people. In fact, youths can be profoundly affected by negative events, such as the following:
● The death of a relative, friend, or pet
● Family conflict
● Academic failure
● The breakup of a romance
● Mistreatment (including physical or sexual abuse)
Admittedly, sooner or later virtually all youths encounter one or more of the situations listed above. Why are some better equipped to ride out the storm than others? Experts say that youths who want to give up the fight feel utterly helpless and hopeless. In other words, such youths see no light on the horizon. They don’t really want to die; they just want to end the pain.

*** No Way Out?
You might know someone who wants to end the pain—so much that he or she has expressed a desire to stop living. If that is the case, what can you do?
If a friend is distressed to the point of wanting to die, urge that person to get help. Then, regardless of how he or she feels about it, talk to a responsible adult. Don’t worry about ruining your friendship. By reporting the matter, you may well save your friend’s life!
But what if you yourself have had thoughts of ending it all? Don’t keep your feelings to yourself. Talk to someone—a parent, a friend, or anyone else who cares and who will listen to your concerns and take you seriously. You have nothing to lose—and everything to gain—by talking out your problems.
Granted, your problems won’t disappear just because you’re talking them out. But the support of a trusted confidant may be just what you need to put your situation in perspective. It may even help you to work out some practical solutions.

*** Things Change
When undergoing distress, remember this: No matter how dire a situation may seem, in time things will change. At one point, the psalmist David, who was no stranger to adversity, was able to say to God in prayer: “You have changed my mourning into dancing for me.”—Psalm 30:11.
David certainly didn’t expect the dancing to last forever. He knew from experience that life’s problems ebb and flow. Have you noticed that to be true with your problems? Some of them may seem overwhelming—at least for now. But be patient. Things change, often for the better. In some cases, problems might be alleviated in ways that you couldn’t have predicted. In other cases, you may discover a way of coping that you hadn’t considered. The point is, distressing problems will not stay the same forever.—2 Corinthians 4:17.

***The Value of Prayer
The most important form of communication you can have is prayer. You can pray as did David: “Search through me, O God, and know my heart. Examine me, and know my disquieting thoughts, and see whether there is in me any painful way, and lead me in the way of time indefinite.”—Psalm 139:23, 24.
Prayer is not a mere crutch. It is real communication with your heavenly Father, who wants you to “pour out your heart” to him. (Psalm 62:8) Consider the following basic truths about God:
● He is aware of the circumstances that contribute to your distress.—Psalm 103:14.
● He knows you better than you know yourself.—1 John 3:20.
● “He cares for you.”—1 Peter 5:7.
● In his new world, God will “wipe out every tear” from your eyes.—Revelation 21:4.

*** When the Problem Is Health Related
As mentioned earlier, suicidal feelings are often rooted in some type of illness. If that’s the case with you, do not be ashamed to seek help. Jesus acknowledged that those who are ailing need a physician. (Matthew 9:12) The good news is that many conditions can be treated. And treatment may help you to feel much better!
The Bible offers a truly comforting promise—that in God’s new world, “no resident will say: ‘I am sick.’” (Isaiah 33:24) God says that at that time, “the former things will not be called to mind, neither will they come up into the heart.” (Isaiah 65:17) In the meantime, do your best to cope with life’s challenges, confident that in God’s due time, depression will be a thing of the past.—Revelation 21:1-4.

But what if things will never change. What if hope is just wishful thinking? What if God hates me, even if it is for a good reason. Why will prayer help then ? I'm tired, I just want to die and have rest.

I have struggled with depression and suicide as well. I even went so far as to cutting myself, which was NOT a solution. I also considered and even tried to kill myself, I didn't care how much ppl loved me or who loved me, I was just in constant pain. If this sounds similar to your situation, you should talk to a therapist or your doctor. That's what I did, and I am now on an anti-depressant and it helps so much! You may not have the same thing as me, but I guarantee, talking to a qualified adult is totally worth it. God loves everyone no matter what, but trust me, he will be happier and you will be happier if you stick through it and talk to someone.

When I was 16 ending it all seemed the
only solution. Yes I'd sufferred some traumas
-but despite the visits to the drs etc...
( was a country town + people knew people'
business)

One thing stuck in my mind !!!

A male adult friend, who knew I was having
problems had a talk +listened to me.
He told me there were only 2people in this
world who try to commit suicide.
1. People who think they are stupid enough
to do it.2. Others who really are stupid enough
to.
I don't know why thats important - maybe
it made me think about about not being
stupid. Just unlucky to have experienced
what I did.

Ever consider you are just unlucky ???

And of course you are not stupid !!!

I am now so shocked because my friend killed himself.
From this experience I realized suicide means a kind of betray to the people near him.

I thought why couldn't I help him just hearing his feeling or the sort of way.

Life is short and life has a lot of sadness,fear,etc...

But I believe because of the same reason, life is good.

Tomorrow is another day and if you do not live,
You cannot see what will happen tomorrow.

You can lost your life if you select the sad conclusion,
But it means that all.

I believe you can find other answers if you keep on living.

When I feel loneliness or sad feeling, I try to consider this is the worst.

Now, I'm surviving the worst time, tomorrow may became a bit good day.

Also I try to find good point in every situation.

When being sad, people just see small things.

Only see myself.

How about visiting a park?

You'll see birds singing,ants carrying and many people living just like you having lot's of troubles like you.

You are not alone.

I hope for your happiness and hope you to find a feeling relaxed, smiles.

Try seeing good points for a few day, weeks.
You may find yourself not worrying about the worst things that happened to you.

That is what will happen tomorrow.

I hope you to believe yourself.

"I would rather live life as hell, then to end up in hell."
- Gavin Durkovic

What I am saying here is that you would rather live life until it ends. It's called surviving. God does forgive everything.

I am not sure. I wonder the same thing. Honestly, he "should" be understanding of your circumstances. However, who knows what type of God he really is. People say he's also, vengeful. The Bible is pretty brutal. Just as some of our lives are.

I don't think there is a clear answer to your question, only opinions. :( I feel you though.
