Have you ever felt like giving up on something?
| I give up every day. |
| Shia LaBeouf told me I could do it so no I never give up |

| Yeah, depressing answer, but right now, yeah. But I have to remember that it's a process, and that this is just one step of the process. |
| "There's no shame in falling down... true shame is to not stand up again!" "Aah? Of course I won't miss!" "My blood tastes like Iron." "Run through the tape in life! Never give up! Run through the tape!" |
hitokiri1859 said: Trying to justify suicide is just another excuse your giving people because you already gave up on humanity. So your at a point that yeah its your decision and no one can stop you if thats really what you want. But you still effect people around you. If you throw a rock into a pond what happens? The rock hits the water and ripples spread across the water. You are a rock in life and if you kill yourself what happens? It ripples though the rest of the pond and effects all the people who you interacted with. You can choose what ever you want end game but don't try to rationalize something that will effect people in a negative way. I've lost some really amazing people to suicide who never said a word it was selfish of them and they will never know how many people got hurt from their decisions. Maybe you can't understand because you think "no one understands what you feel" Or maybe you don't want to understand. But I would keep all of this in mind when you make what ever decision. You are the cause an effect if your in a situation thats bad move get out of it do what ever it takes find friends who can help if you do all that and you situation doesn't change and you want to give up. But if you roll over and give up without putting any effort then don't try to "rationalise it" when other people are fighting hard to make life better. Guilt tripping. How original. It would be easy if all problems were moral in nature and could be solved with mere words. |
| Yup and I think a few people on here would be pissed if they knew what I was talking about. |
 I love Christine "If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours. He will put some things behind, will pass an invisible boundary; In proportion as he simplifies his life, the laws of the universe will appear less complex, and solitude will not be solitude, nor poverty poverty, nor weakness weakness." - Henry David Thoreau |

 |
| Yes. That anime/that manga - rarely drop them though School - but I finished it, phew Work - but I didn't given up yet, I can't xP Dreams - almost giving up... (;_;) Love - I think I already gave up on this long ago People (as in general) - Same as above. and most importantly, my life - I think about suicide almost everyday. |

shotz_ said: No, i'm not suicidal. Yes, it's the livestream. No, it's not because it's not taking off. There are a few reasons I don't really want to get into yet, not the least of being that it's started to take on a more official status than I originally desired. I won't be killing it off just yet, I'll give it at least a good try, just don't expect this to last.SnugglyWhuggly said: no i think he's talking about his mal livestreams club. i guess it's not really taking off.So, does that means it's suicide? :( edit: there was a fucking essay here before, i'll be saving this for a later date. |

| I gave up playing the guitar and piano, basketball, volleyball, ballet, and drawing. I give up pretty easily. |
  |
| I feel like giving up on everything. |
| I felt, but I didn't give up; Programming - divine activity, but I can't make money with it. Right now, I've been forced to drop programming and start looking for a job as unskilled worker. Some kind of spiritual suicide. |
| Titan of 20+ virgins club. |
| Is life important? No? Then not. |
| Yeah, I threw away my interest in movies and I'm proud of my choice. When I graduated from HS I chose to forget about everyone and everything that happened there. But I will never give up on my goals, because being a man means not giving up. |
| Sometimes it's better to accept things the way they are and give up. |
hitokiri1859 said: TheBrainintheJar said: Killing yourself is selfish, but so are the people who want to keep you alive. Now, I'm glad you found life worthwhile, but not everyone does. Suicidal people actually do talk about it. I talk about it often because I'm seriously considering the option. Not everyone is better off pushing through life and sometimes the things you can experience are inaccessible to you. If you find yourself in a state where too many things are out of your reach, life is static and you don't fit in then killing yourself is a legitimate option. Suicide is more rational than people think. Not all life are worth living and it's up to the individual to decide. Trying to justify suicide is just another excuse your giving people because you already gave up on humanity. So your at a point that yeah its your decision and no one can stop you if thats really what you want. But you still effect people around you. If you throw a rock into a pond what happens?

But if you roll over and give up without putting any effort then don't try to "rationalise it" when other people are fighting hard to make life better. I agree with you it affects people, but not sure about the guiit thing. What about the morality of forcing people into life? We never chose to be born, we were forced to and now we have to live with no option of exit. My solution to this dilemma is euthanasia for anyone who wants. This way, a person can kill himself while giving his family and friends time to prepare. Suicide will still be sad, but it won't be a surprising sucker-punch. People could say their last goodbye and try to make things come full circle. If the choice for a person you love is either living in suffering or dying in peace, what would you choose for them? |

I think the problem is that many people seem to have the mindset of "life is important, we must try to maintain a life whatever the cost". That's also why there are people who are not only against abortion, but even uber pro-life under certain circumstances such as the woman being raped, or the high probability of her dying during child birth. They're in a vocal minority of course, but they exist. I think the most likely explanation is that we're just "programmed" so to speak, to perceive being alive as being desirable, and being dead as being undesirable. It makes sense, but there are some cases where you're better off being dead, as harsh as that may sound. |

Many cultures celebrated martyrdom and found suicide an honorable way out. Suicide reminds many people of their mortality. That explains why we're so afraid of it. But yes, some lives aren't worth living. Suicidal thoughts are already a huge burden. It's best to let these people have a clean exit, then risk haivng them do it on impulse. A suicide will be easier to take if people will have time to prepare. |

| Not try to sound edgy, yes I have. Sometimes I feel like I'm not special or good at anything. I may sound like I am cocky most of the time, but I'm not. My parents believe I am smart, but lazy. Which is true, but I don't have the hidden potential that my parents think I have. I really want to be a voice actor, but I tend to stutter when I get excited or read big words. I can't keep a proper conversation with people irl. I don't know what to say to them. I get nervous when I do something public. I feel like I'm a third wheel with my friends. I'm not really great at anything. I'm just average to below average...... I really don't want to say anymore........ |
| Life. Sometimes I wish someone or something would just put me out of my misery but at least I don't want to do it myself anymore and I'm happy sometimes. |

Well that's why I said if circumstances don't give you any option for what ever reason then thats your choice to make. It defently shouldn't be impulsive. Would be better to try and get help but if there's no help or the help doesn't resolve the issue then its your decision. I mean people will do what they want regardless of what others tell them. Like I had a really good friend who was doing drugs and I told her its not good for her and she should quit. But it wasn't until she herself made he decision to stop that she stopped. Cause you have to have the willingness to change what your doing. The only thing someone like me can do is throw personal experience to the table and get you to think about alternative options but you get the final say i can't make you not do something. Its the internet anyways reading what I write might not even be a motivation to you at all cause you don't know me in person. But if I talked to someone on MAL then I found out later at some point that they commited suicide i'd be sad about it even if I didn't know them in real life especially if they where fun or a enjoyable person to talk too. Senpai always notices everyones posts I read them all even if its sometimes hard to translate. |

| ♫"Everyday's great at your Junes!"♫ |
| yes, we all give up, everyone does eventually sweet emo thread, though |
| Definitely gave up on making worthwhile friends. Otherwise nah. |
traed said: Im pretty close to giving up on love, friendship, humanity, and life. You're almost there. GAMBARUUUUU! |

| It's an option, not a feeling. A bunch of people are indecisive, I'm the opposite - if I usually have a good idea of the conclusion so I try to decide ASAP. |
| Op: Don't cry to give up, cry to keep going. Don't cry to quit. You're already in pain. Pain is temporary. It may last for a minute, or an hour or even a year but eventually it will subside. But if you give up, it will last forever. -Eric Thomas |

| Had to stop playing soccer and tennis due to moving to another country. I used to play it all year round for competitions since I used to live in a place where it was sunny all year. It's rare to find indoor soccer and tennis facilities in where I live so I had to give them up and only able to play around summer. Fortunately I can still go swimming and play badminton whenever I want. It's difficult for badminton now that I don't have anyone to vs with unless I want to play with a brick wall. My friends are only into basketball, and volleyball so I can't relate to their conversation most of the time when they talk about those things. I'm also awful at those games so I usually sit by the bench and watch them play. It's always sad whenever people have to be forced to give up their favorite sport because of injury, bullying, change in environment or financial issues. Some aren't able to get over it and it weighs on their mind everyday. Feeling powerless and disabled. Eventually developed into depression and anxiety. Took me a long while to get over soccer, tennis and badminton. I only have swimming left to keep me happy though which is better than nothing. Imagine being taught how to play this sport, eventually falling in love with this sport and having to give it up due to various reasons. |

| Yeah I've gone through my downer times of feeling like I should give up my job or school back in the day. I usually just get over it, move on and look forward. Gotta stay positive! |

I'd be terribly sad if someone I know killed him/herself, but I know that I only want people to stay alive for my benefit. I want them to stay alive so I could enjoy their presence. I don't know what it's like to live as another person. I have no access to this information and it could be living as Person X is boring, no fun or very painful. If you don't like who you are, get rid of yourself. |
