After Jew Wario I made a video on my channel about Suicide. I have made several attempts until I was 28. I got the right help and been fine since. Once I took an entire bottle of sleeping pills. All that happened is I stayed awake all night. Tried hanging myself but the cloth ripped. Many more things.

Okay, I'm sorry but this is a really wrong mindset of talking people out of suicidal thoughts. Telling them to cling to a hope, without addressing the root cause of the problem is nothing more than kicking the can down the road. It might work for some, but plenty relapse, and end up in a worse state than they originally were.

I have a huge backlog I can't just leave behind. I don't want to burden my love ones to finish it.

At the same time you want to make it bigger and play new games. You know for legacy and there are plenty of reasons to stay alive TLOU 2, GTA VI, RDR2 etc.

Anyway if you have suicidal thoughts adress a professional.



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar

Maybe not totally in line with the current conversation, but I really like this speech and perspective on the subject.

Sounds like using placebos.

Did you tried to get professional help? You know, by going to the root of your issues.

I guess it is like my grandfather once told me: no one dies before the right time, all these close call you had... Thankfuly you´re still here to tell us about.

Care to share how it stopped?



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

Well, it was 15 years ago, the last time I tried anything. I did psycho therapy for 2 years when I was 17, and took antidepressants for one year. When I turned 20 I was healed. Never tried since then.

when i'm doubting life and my existence, i think about what it would do to my mother, wife aunt and sisters if i gave up. That brings me back to reasoning. You have to keep trying to make it and pull through.

I've never had any suicidal thoughts, but if I ever would have them, this would probably stop me from actually commiting suicide. I do not wnat to do that to my family.

People who are suicidal do not need jesus. They need to talk to someone they can trust about how they feel, seek help from a mental health professional, and look into medications. That's really the only advice anyone should be giving out regarding suicide, unless they have some kind of actual expertise.

Indeed, this is what they need to do first and foremost.

However, I do believe that religion can be a help for some people. It's just like when people are mourning, they can find help in God and Jezus.
(I'm not saying that they need religion. Non-religious people can deal with these things just as well. I'm just saying that seeking help in religion is not necessarily a bad thing.)
