Hello Jack. You need to step back from the bridge and from whatever it is that is making you feel so down and desperate. Easy for me to say, but suicide is never the answer, because in front of you is likely to be a happy and fulfilled life. If you leave this world, you will never experience all the joys and pleasures that life has to offer. Life is never easy and at times can be bloody challenging, but that's what makes it all worth while, because we never realize what we can achieve until we do it.

I'll be one of your friends, so just contact me if you need moral support, advice or just need to chat.

Meanwhile, try and sort out what it actually is that is causing your problem. Write it down so that it's clear in your mind. Then, when you are ready, share it with someone you either trust, a stranger that you can trust, or a professional counselor.

You need to do something Jack to kick start your confidence and self esteem. I know college grades are important, but they are less of a priority than your health and well being. If you're a senior in high school then you're obviously an achiever, maybe too focused on your education and not enough of free time to explore having fun and making friends. Perhaps you have to re-balance your life, but first please please try and put everything into concept. Life is too precious, including yours.

Chaz

If you end it all, you will have even less than you do now.

You can always make more friends, look inside yourself and see what might be keeping you from having friends. Is it you? Are you blocking people? Are you pushing away people? I know high school seems like the top of the world for you now, but trust me: You won't care what 10% of those people are doing after you graduate, and they won't care what you are doing. That's exactly how you want it. High school is such a social pit of popularity. A quest that even the super popular people will never finish. Even at my age of 32, I still see people on Facebook or other social media that STILL think being popular is their self-validation.

You know what mine is? My wife and daughter. Working and feeding them. Keeping a roof over their heads. Guess what? In about 10 years...yours might be too.

Remedy:

Attempt to make friends with people away from school. Genuine people, not those tramps and jerks that only care about what's cool at school, is what matters. True friends will not take a supreme amount of effort to keep.

"A great man is not already made, he is constantly reshaping himself."

That means that you constantly have to improve yourself. So what if you have a 2.0 GPA, guess who has the power to fix that? Only you.

Go to www.nami.org and/or www.dbsalliance.org

They both run support groups, likely one near you. THey can help a lot.

Nobody gives diabetics cr@p because their pancreas doesn't make enough insulin, but for some reason every idiot out there thinks it is fine to abuse someone because their brain is not making enough serotonin. Do not accept what ignoramuses say.

If you can't talk to your folks, then see the school nurse, counselor, your doc, or just any adult you trust. Counseling and/or medication can help a lot.

The world needs sensitive people; there are far too few.

You need to seek professional councilling for serious depression that could turn nasty for those you leave behind.

go see a Doctor today and get help !

I think it's time to tell your parents/friends.

They should help you.
