Have had the same problem to, sometimes friends ain't friends, and sometimes people on the internet can be better friends because some of them know what you're feeling or talking about, I don't know you, but you always may email me if you want to.. take care in future!

I'm 15 and became depressed at 13. I've attempted 14 times between then and now, most of them occuring in the beginning of my 10th grade year. My friends talked to me, and I feel a lot better. One of the ways I learned to cope over the past couple weeks is looking at pictures, stories, videos and songs about my favorite characters from shows, and by talking to one of my friends. It truely helps me, and it might help you.

@casstarburst101 If you get really bad call that 800 Suicide number. Take a short walk in the sun. Watch a funny movie. Listen to music that you like. Watch Ray William Johnson on youtube, he's great.

I've had my gun up to my head with the full intent of blowing my brains out. My cat jumped up in my lap and meowed at me. It stopped me long enough to think about not being able to care for them. That was about five years ago. I'm a lot happier now. I've met a lot of really interesting and funny people. I've had some really good times and have talked to other people to see if my story helped them. Hopefully it has. I hope you guys have happier lives from this point forward.

Ive thought of suicide since i was 9 im now 14 ive been cutting for 5 years but recently stopped. all Ive got to say is it doesnt go away that easily the pain is always there but you learn to deal with it as far as friends go i dnt tell anyone unless i known them fro years and if u tell them and they stop talking to you or anything let them go your way better off without them i promise you, there will be others who will be there for you. You have me when ever anyone of you would like to talk (:
