So, just by reading the title it might have struck to your mind that I’m going to waste your time telling you about the number of teenage suicides in India or how to deal with your suicidal thoughts with this tips! But gratefully I ain’t going to talk about that here! I’m just going to enlighten you about the most careless thing you are about to do. Firstly, lets imagine, you might be suicidal just because a bunch of friends left you or ignored you or you might be suicidal cause of some family issues you are been facing lately! Do you really think that suicide is going to solve all this? Just because of this one selfish act to escape your problems ( which aren’t the ones that are faced by you alone) you are not only going to hurt yourself but all of the people who are close to you will be very wounded by your death, and the ones who care about you the most, or need you the most, will be the most affected. If there is even one person in your family (or one friend, even) that you care about, your suicide will carve a permanent hole into that person's heart that will never quite heal. Life will go on, of course, but with that grief in their heart would completely ruin the person’s life.
You think that this a way of punishing the people who have hurt you in the past, but you should be realizing that it is not them that you are punishing, it is you who is going to get hurt eventually! According to your instincts, you are teaching them a lesson but basically you aren’t. You can’t change people or force them to like you, there are other people, a lot better ones, than you have been with, who might care for you. Changing your opinions about others can be a solution but not suicide. Also, after you are gone, it wont even matter about how people react to you or think about you anyways, cause the one who was facing it (which is you), is no longer alive!
Sometimes besides the above problems, these suicidal thoughts might be contributed due to the mental disorders which are still unaware to you. It is pretty common for you to have such thoughts if you are in deep down in a hole of depression. You are continuously falling in this never-ending hole of negative thoughts, lowering your self esteem and your self worth. The once called peaceful brain of yours has turned into a big jar of overthinking and filtering the things happening around you. If you think suicide is 'the only route out' then this is completely the work of an irregular behavior caused by depression!
There are other ways to achieve the "best" or "alive" feeling you want that doesn't involve hurting yourself.
Listen to me, if you are thinking of committing suicide, think again! You think you aren’t making a mistake but you are! I know this cause I was in the place where you are right now! Don’t ruin your life because of problems you are facing rather try to gain courage to face them instead of taking a step to this cowardly act which might be a catastrophe not only to you but you parents too. If they would’ve wanted you to die, they would’ve tried many methods to do so themselves but in the deepest corner of their hearts you are still their child! Remember people come and go in life, they hurt you, humiliate you, but it is you and only you who has the courage and determination to cope up with all those criticisms by standing up for yourself with pride in your heart to defeat any obstacles you are about to face in future!
