How to Help Someone Who is Feeling Suicidal
When a friend or loved one is feeling suicidal, this can be a frightening experience. There is no fool-proof formula to prevent a suicide, but the following are steps compiled from what most suicide prevention organizations recommend

Here's How:
1. Be aware of the warning signs: depression, final arrangements, giving away of possessions, sudden elevated mood, self-destructiveness, and talk of suicide.

2. Be calm and accepting.

3.Give them your full attention; show that you take their feelings very seriously. A suicide attempt is never just a ploy for attention. It is a cry for help.

4. Do not be afraid to ask if they are thinking of suicide. You are not giving them ideas that they haven't already had.

5. Ask if they have a plan and a means to carry out a suicide. Those who have a definite plan are in the most immediate danger.

6. Don't leave them alone. If you must leave, contact someone you trust to take over.

7. Listen attentively and encourage them to share what they are feeling. Allowing them to vent will lessen some of the pressure they feel inside.

8. Avoid the urge to problem-solve or offer judgment on how bad things really are. How serious the problem is is less important than how serious it feels to them.

9. Keep them talking. As they tire, they will lose momentum and be less likely to act on their feelings.

10. Offer them a reason to go on in whatever form they will accept. Love of their children, hope that they can get well, even fear of a failed suicide attempt: all can help them hang on a bit longer until they get the treatment they need.

11. Encourage them to seek professional help as soon as possible. Let them know that depression is an illness and that it is very treatable. Help them make arrangements and take them to their appointment if necessary.

12. If you feel they are in immediate danger, don't hesitate to the emergency number in your area. It is not a betrayal of friendship to get your loved one help. They may feel angry at the time, but this will pass.

Tips:
There is no right or wrong thing you can say. Just be yourself.
Seek support for yourself afterwards to talk about your own feelings.
Places you can take a suicidal person for help: a crisis center, ER, mental health center, or their own psychiatrist or family doctor.


What do people who feel suicidal want?

Someone to listen. Someone who will take time to really listen to them. Someone who won't judge, or give advice or opinions, but will give their undivided attention.
Someone to trust. Someone who will respect them and won't try to take charge. Someone who will treat everything in complete confidence.
Someone to care. Someone who will make themselves available, put the person at ease and speak calmly. Someone who will reassure, accept and believe. Someone who will say, "I care."

What do people who feel suicidal not want?

To be alone. Rejection can make the problem seem ten times worse. Having someone to turn to makes all the difference. Just listen.

To be advised. Lectures don't help. Nor does a suggestion to "cheer up", or an easy assurance that "everything will be okay." Don't analyze, compare, categorize or criticize. Just listen.

To be interrogated. Don't change the subject, don't pity or patronize. Talking about feelings is difficult. People who feel suicidal don't want to be rushed or put on the defensive. Just listen

****
Ambivalence is a marked feature of a suicidal person. Many don't want to die, but simply want a way to escape an unbearable situation.
Emotionally you're an idiot.

Almost didn't make it last wednesday...almost didn't...I almost lost it if it weren't for my persistent friends and for the prayers of everyone...i already disconnected the phonelines...made sure I was alone...fixed my stuff...wrote my goodbye letter...prayed the rosary and 300 "souls in the purgatory prayer"...and I asked God for forgiveness...until someone made a desperate attempt to reach out to me...God bless his soul ( and mine na din...)...I was crying and crying the whole night...asking God to take away the pain and the hurt...bargaining with him that if he does I'd be a good girl for the rest of my life...and he did. just for that night lang naman, he took away the hurt because he made me sleep and the next thing I know I had the sun in my face...

That episode was my cry for help...it means that I really don't want to die but I need help...it means na i want to die because the pain and hurt was so unbearable........and because I feel that I am already a burden to everyone...an emotional vampire...and i never want that to happen...it means na...i need help because I can't help myself

"Sometimes an attempted suicide is, in effect, a cry for help. And surely family members and friends want to do the right thing for the one who has lost hope. Of course, it will not help to use expressions such as: "Stop feeling sorry for yourself," "A lot of people are worse off than you are" or, "All of us have a bad day now and then." Instead, why not be a real friend and a good listener? Yes, try to help the despondent one to see that life is worth living.

French author Voltaire wrote: "The man who, in a fit of melancholy, kills himself today, would have wished to live had he waited a week." Well, then, how can people in despair discover that life is worthwhile?

"Suicide is not about dying, it's about stopping pain,"

In the future...if this happens again...say a prayer for me...whenever you have time..say the Souls in the purgatory prayer..you never know..It might be my soul you're helping.....

"ETERNAL REST GRANT TO THEM, O, LORD AND PERPETUAL LIGHT SHINE UPON THEM."

I will dedicate and sacrifice my every thing for just a second's worth to find my story's ending.
And I wish I could know the directions that I take,and all the choices that I make,
will end up all for nothing.

Show me what it's for, make me understand it.
I've been crawling in the dark, looking for the answer.
Is it something more than what I've been handed?
I've been crawling in the dark, looking for the answer.


Help me carry on.
Show me it's ok to use my heart and not my eyes
to navigate the darkness.
You'll be ending me, if I come in suddenly.
Will I ever get to see the ending to my story?

Show me what it's for, make me understand it.
I've been crawling in the dark,
looking for the answer.
Is it something more
than what I've been handed?
I've been crawling in the dark,
looking for the answer.

So when the hell will I know (know know know know know know...).
How much further do I have to go?
And how much longer 'til I finally know?
'Cause I'm looking and I just can't see what's in front of me,
in front of me!

Show me what it's for, make me understand it.
I've been crawling in the dark, looking for the answer.
Is it something more than what I've been handed?
I've been crawling in the dark, looking for the answer
Just a clarification re: the YM conversation that I posted. My tone was angry and hurt because for 2 weekends he was always "cannot be reached". No explanation was given to me as to why every weekend he would be supposedly asleep and cannot answer the phone. For 2 weeks. Imagine worrying about someone for 2 weeks and he did not even deign to give me any plausible explanation as to where he was basta he was asleep or he was sick and did not hear the phone...how could someone be sick enough to not answer the phone but can go to work??? Mas mahirap ata pumasok kesa sumagot ng telepono...

Lord, help me walk another mile, just one more mile. I'm tired of walkin' all alone.
Lord, help me smile another smile, just one more smile. I know I just can't make it on my own. I never thought I needed help
before. I thought that I could do things by myself. Now I know I just can't take it any more. With a humble heart, on bended knee. I'm beggin' you, please, for help.

Hello there, the angel from my nightmare
The shadow in the background of the morgue
The unsuspecting victim of darkness in the valley
We can live like Jack and Sally if we want
Where you can always find me
We'll have Halloween on Christmas
And in the night we'll wish this never ends
We'll wish this never ends

(I miss you I miss you)
(I miss you I miss you)

Where are you and I'm so sorry
I cannot sleep I cannot dream tonight
I need somebody and always
This sick strange darkness
Comes creeping on so haunting every time
And as I stared I counted
Webs from all the spiders
Catching things and eating their insides
Like indecision to call you
and hear your voice of treason
Will you come home and stop this pain tonight
Stop this pain tonight
Don't settle for the one you can live with. Fight for the one you can't live without.

I did. I fought for that one person and I lost...he was my Waterloo...he was, as I thought, the love of my life and the person God sent to me to spend the rest of my days with..but I was wrong...dead wrong...as I said before he brought me straight up to the high heavens and to hell...where I still am...I'm still trying to get over him...I'm still trying to erase all the love I had for him and trying to erase of hurts and memories I had of him...I can't wait for the day when i wake and I won't think about him anymore...that I won't cry over him anymore...that i won't love him anymore...when that day comes, you mark my word, you can never go back...and I'll never go back to you...just like what happened to the first guy who broke my heart...it took a long time for me to recover and when I did, it was too late na for him. He's been trying to court me for years now-may boyfriend ako or wala...but everytime I tell him no. Recently I did try to go out with him but its not the same anymore...I dont like him like how I used to like him...One of these days Adrian, you will be in the same boat... you will love me the way I loved you...one day you will think of me the way I thought of you...one day you will cry for me the way I cried for you and one day you will want me but I won't want you..


How does it feel that you are the cause why 2 people broke up? How does it feel to be called the third party, the querida, the kabit...doesn't it hurt...yet you are and you don't care...i hope and pray to God that you will not experience the same hurt that I experienced...I hope and pray to God that you will never cry the same amount of tears that I cried...I hope and pray to God that you will never feel how it is to be betrayed...how it is to see your world suddenly crumble...how to have that one person you love and cherish taken from you...I hope and pray to God that you will never feel how it is to love and NOT be loved in return...I hope and pray that you will never experience what I went through just because of him...NEVER do I wish that of anyone...it's too painful...I almost died because of what happened...but do you care? did both of you care while you were too busy "loving each other"...i guess not...though you never spoke to me about it...though you never asked for my forgiveness, I give it to you...I forgive you and I pray to God that one day I will be able to erase all the hurts both of you caused...I asked God for forgiveness for hating you...and I have asked Him to englighten you on what you did and to make you realize what YOU did...you won't realize that now because you're still busy being happy but remember, God is just. that's why he created karma...one of these days you will meet her...and when that day comes...if you need a friend.....you can come to me...that was said with tears in my eyes...with my hurt out in the open...with no malice but the hope that you never get to experience what I went through.....no one deserves that kind of suffering..no, not even you....


..God uses your hurts and disappointments for you to be able to fulfill your purpose in this life...rick warren

"You First Believed"

How many times did I pray
You'd find me
How many wishes on a star
Gazing off into the dark
Dreaming I'd see your face
Safe at home unafraid
Captured in your embrace

So many times
When my heart was broken
Visions of you
Would keep me strong
You were with me all along
Guiding my every step
You are all that I am

And I'll never forget

It was you who first believed
In all that I was made to be
It was you looking in my eyes
You held my hand
And showed me life
And I've never been the same
Since you first believed

There were times
When I'd thought I'd lost you
Fearing forever was a dream
But it wasn't what it seemed
Placing your hand in mine
You could see in the dark
You were guiding my heart

It was you who first believed
In all that I was made to be
It was you looking in my eyes
You held my hand
And you showed me life
And I've never been the same
Since you first believed

How many times did I pray
You'd find me
How many wishes on a star

To be young, gifted and depressed

Teenage suicide

LIKE the proverbial thief in the night, suicide shatters every family that it touches. More so when it is a teener who passes away. When suicide takes place, everyone- friends, family, classmates-is left grappling, trying to make sense of the tragedy that has suddenly taken place.

Recent months have shown an alarming rise in the number of adolescent and young adult suicides, their stories often exaggerated, circulating around the schools and universities where these young people once belonged to.

Then there are the suicides which are made public due to the nature or stature of the families involved.
Suicide is defined as the decision to deliberately end one's life. In the United States, suicide is the second leading
cause of death among children and adolescents. In the Philippines, according to Dr. Liza Espinosa-Rondain, a
psychiatrist at the Makati Medical Center and Center for Family Ministries (Cefam) at the Ateneo de Manila University, statistics show that completed suicide more often than not takes place among 18- to 27-year-olds, and that 37 percent of suicide attempts are completed.

Rondain adds that the most common methods used are those of hanging and poisoning. Peak periods are reported to be during Christmas, February and the opening of a new school year.

"There are much more stressors and expectations, especially when it comes to adolescent relationships, during these periods," Rondain explains.

Myths about suicide

She further cites several myths associated with teen suicide. The first myth is that people who talk
about or threaten suicide don't really mean it. "Parents and friends need to be sensitive and should take this kind of talk seriously," she stresses.

It is also untrue that suicides frequently occur out of the blue, that thoughts of suicide are temporary states of mind, and that whatever crisis young people will go through will pass.

"More often than not, the suicide has long been considered and there has been a period of depression prior to it. Again, the people around the adolescent need to be sensitive to the signs and signals being given," says Rondain. Lastly, it is a myth that suicide attempts won't be repeated again because of shame.

Rondain says statistics show that four out of five-indeed, a high rate-try again. "Closer monitoring is really a must for those who have been caught attempting suicide. Just because you were able to catch it [the first time] doesn't mean [the suicidal person] is already safe," she says.

Open communication lines

"Tell the person that you are worried and listen to what s/he has to say. Ask direct questions and if there is a plan, but don't act shocked when the person tells you about it," she says.

"Don't debate on whether it is right or wrong, and never promise to keep the youngster's intention a secret. You also have to ensure that s/he will be safe until you are able to notify an appropriate adult who is responsible for
the teener's care."


Rondain also adds that it is important to give assurance that something is being done and that the troubled person can call for help anytime.

"After the risk is overcome, you need to monitor closely, as many suicide attempts recur three months after the initial attempt," she explains.

Carandang's paper, on the other hand, provides some insights and recommendations for parents and families with adolescents so as to prevent trouble from further escalating. Adults, she says, need to go beyond the faæade of indifference and break that wall to see the intense emotions inside their children.

"Just like their songs with loud 'turn-off' melodies, you will find the meaningful lyrics once you go beyond the
'noise,' " she says. An adolescent also needs to be "touched emotionally" by at least one significant adult. "Someone who values them or to whom they know they matter," she says.

The myth of "all for the family" or "for the family only" can prevent the adolescent and other members from
expressing themselves, seeking autonomy and identity and leading a healthy life for themselves.

"Balancing family with individual concerns is important in the adolescent stage," says Carandang.

Family members, especially fathers, need to find ways to reach out to their adolescent children effectively. Parents need to be aware of adolescent need for approval and affirmation even if the adolescents do not show it.

"They also still look for limits from their parents, but this should be done in a respectful and not insulting manner. The adolescent must be given a say, a role in his or her own development in the spirit of genuine participation," Carandang concludes.
