Lately, I've been thinking how nice it would be if I die in my sleep. I've never actually attempted suicide or even close, just the thoughts enter my mine. Have others experienced this? Is it something to be concerned about? Does this make me suicidal?

Yes I have had the same thoughts and used to pray for God to just take me and let someone else who wants to live or a young child with many years ahead of them to be spared. I have had suicidal thoughts over many years but would never act upon the thoughts due to my religious beliefs and my family.
I have called a crisis line at those times and found it very helpfull and it got me thinking differently.
I am happy to say that I no longer feel that way and you too can get past those feelings/ thoughts. Please keep moving through the program in every aspect and self talk about all that is good in life really helped me greatly. I now enjoy everything in nature and all I have instead of thinking about what needs to be fixed, money problems, etc. I don't go there anymore. My brain is fed all good thoughts and it just took training my thought processes. I'm now a positive thinker and it has given me a joyous and happy life after so many years of depression and anxiety.

My thoughts, prayers and many hugs are going out to you. You can PM me anytime you need any help at all. I'm here for you.

God Bless

Inner Peace,

Absolutely.

I can remember the weekend after the panic attacks first started. This may sound weird, but I was inside the house, sitting down, and all of sudden, the word 'suicide' in big, blazing letters (like on a theatre sign) just burned across my brain.

It was so intense, I could swear that I could hear the intensity of the little bulbs.

I got scared. Really scared and I wondered the same thing as you.

Now, I have never had any kind of problems like that, never thought anything like that, have never before been depressed, don't have any family history, or anything like that.

My reaction (and I am sure yours) is what is really important. Lucinda states that these thoughts are a part of anxiety- providing that when getting them you ARE SCARED of them.

If you, at any time, look at this and believe it to be the only solution AND FIND RELIEF in the idea, then please contact help immediately.

For me, the word scared me so much I knew that it was anxiety.

now, 10 months later I am free of this terrible thing.
