• Urge to commit suicide but not suicidal.
    52 replies, posted
Like if you are in a high place, do you ever just want to jump? Or run in front of a car/train? I saw somebody mention it in a thread, and I feel the same way, and was wondering who else felt like that. I am not suicidal, but I just wonder what would happen.
I thought the definition of being suicidal was having the urge to commit suicide.
But it's not the urge to commit suicide itself, but the urge to see what would happen.
I don't do this specifically, but I always seem to rationalize suicide in my head as a suitable way to handle a situation. Mind you I have depression, so different rules apply.
Occasionally. I always wondered about it when I was younger but over the years it happens less and less. More of wondering what would happen and wanting to see the outcome or something.
I would never seriously consider it, but I just get an urge to see what would happen (I know I would die, but still).
Well, yes. I'm professionally diagnosed with depression, so its not to odd.
Imagining the worst possible scenario is natural human instinct. If you have to physically stop yourself from doing it though, is another story and if that is the case, you [i]are[/i] suicidal.

I would want to see how my "friends" would react if i died. Oh well. Im not really suicidal.

[QUOTE=MegaChalupa;25611140]Wait wait wait wait wait wait waaaait. If you're dead, how would you be able to see what happened?[/QUOTE] That's not the point. It's not the logical part of my brain thinking, I just get curious.

[QUOTE=MegaChalupa;25611213]Do you play out the situation in your head or are you actually wanting to kill yourself?[/QUOTE] Neither. Like I said, I don't seriusly consider it, it's just an urge, a "what would happen", but I don't do either.

Suicide = lazy bastards' way out.
Once when I missed my train I was contemplating jumping off the overpass onto the tracks.

Now that I read this thread, yes.
I wouldn't ever want to kill myself, however I don't want to live a long life. I don't care when or how I die, I just know I'm not going to do it to myself.
The only reason I would want to jump from a high place is because falling feels awesome. Landing however, does not.
I get that feeling occasionally, but it's more often manifested in a desire to throw shit out of the window when I'm in my car or shout out loud during an exam.

Not suicidal, but curious.
I read Hamlet too much. It seems that suicide is the only solution to an existential crisis. [QUOTE] To be, or not to be– that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles And, by opposing, end them. To die, to sleep No more – and by a sleep to say we end The heartache and the thousand natural shocks That flesh is heir to – ‘tis a consummation Devoutly to be wished. To die, to sleep To sleep, perchance to dream. Ay, there's the rub, For in that sleep of death what dreams may come, When we have shuffled off this mortal coil, Must give us pause. There's the respect That makes calamity of so long life. For who would bear the whips and scorns of time, Th’ oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely, The pangs of dispriz'd love, the law's delay, The insolence of office, and the spurns That patient merit of th’ unworthy takes, When he himself might his quietus make With a bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear, To grunt and sweat under a weary life, But that the dread of something after death, The undiscovered country from whose bourn No traveller returns, puzzles the will And makes us rather bear those ills we have Than fly to others that we know not of? Thus conscience doth make cowards of us all, And thus the native hue of resolution Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought, And enterprises of great pith and moment With this regard their currents turn awry, And lose the name of action. [/QUOTE] I think it's sad how I know that off by heart. Also, when I have those thoughts, my fiancée brings be back down to earth.
You know what they say. Curiosity killed the OP.
I think about it purely because of curiousity like what would happen and stuff. I don't really consider actually killing myself.
you are just Sui-Curious
Oh hi just came in here to rate OP dumb ok bye
