Middle school finally hit full force and it was horrible. I was still smart, but mentally I was screwed up. I was suicidal and was a cutter. My mom didn’t and never will know the hell I went through. Every night was a battle between me and my thoughts. I was called ugly, fat and loser and that’s how I felt. I almost committed suicide ten times, but my thoughts always went to my mom and how she would be left alone or how I always wanted to go to college and be successful. School continued I became really smart. I was shy and kept to myself. I joined the Tennis team and became really good and ended up being first doubles in eighth grade. I remember being in band class and I was the only Latino kid that took pride in who they were. I listened
On October 5, 2016, Fowlerville High School freshman, Brendan Kangas, committed suicide. His whole school and community was struck with grief, previously unaware of Brendan’s battle with depression. The next day school was held on schedule, and it was a very unproductive day. According to the faculty, kids were crying in classrooms, and uninstructed teachers did not know how to handle the situation (Brent). Many Fowlerville students have struggled academically, unable to cope with the news of Brendan’s death. Fowlerville was not prepared to handle such a crisis and administrators were unaware of the effect Brendan’s suicide would have on the school. Since then, several other students in Brendan’s community have attempted to take their lives as well (Brent). Suicide has not only a problem in

The plan of the massacre was
When my mom would send me off to school, nobody ever liked the new guy. I felt so scared, and awkward.I was bullied because of the color of my skin. I tended to be a little darker not only because of my roots but because long hard hours working with my dad after school. Resulted of me having sun burns. I was called every name in the book,and it was tough for me. Having to go to school and get treated like an old rag was already enough to what I would come home everyday with. I’d just get home and right away start working with my dad just to start giving us some income. I had to get used to this type of work everyday for the rest of my life. I wasn't so sure even if I even wanted to keep going to school. I mean I was already not caring for school and working with my dad after school. I wanted to drop out. To leave everything behind. I didn't need to keep going. I was a nobody. Nobody wanted me. My classmates told me so many times. I started to believe
When Scott heard about a student’s attempt at suicide, he thought it was Lee and rushed to look for her in the halls. He suspected that the student was Lee because she had been depressed all throughout that week. Another reason he suspected this was because she was always talking about death. Earlier that year, Scott saw bandages on Lee’s wrists and thought she was cutting herself, although Lee said it was from an accident in the kitchen. This added on to Scott’s thinking that Lee attempted suicide. Scott planned on giving her a Valentine’s present, even though Valentine’s Day was over, and thought that if he had given her the gift earlier, this might have been prevented. Lee had asked him to a dance, but Scott thought she was joking. When
“My ex-girlfriend was taken away by the cop and taken to the local jail. My ex-girlfriend’s Dad showed up and I rode back with him to their house. Finally my parents came and picked me up. I went home and maybe got two hours of sleep, if you even call that sleep. The next morning, I went back to my ex-girlfriend’s house and she was later released from jail that day. For the longest time, we would just sit there in silence, because, what do you say? It was time to comfort one another. I not only felt bad about the whole situation, but I knew no one was going to believe me, us. Believe that a girl purposively jumped into the moving vehicle. I later learned that the girl who died had been suicidal. Earlier that day, before the accident,
I loved school when we would learn something because I was good at that and I was able to do that when I felt like I was terrible at everything. Nothing would change from fourth grade to fifth grade I still loved school and really had no friends. In fifth grade the news I wanted so badly wouldn’t turn out the way I wanted. The AVM had shrunk but it wasn't gone and one more dose of the radio static surgery should do the trick. I was also switching schools and school districts, I asked my doctor if we could do it in summer so I wouldn’t miss school. I was beyond scared, I always keep a brave face on because if I don't show fear it doesn't get to me. I couldn't help it, the last time this was done it went bad, I woke up throwing up I had giant marks on my forehead. I didn't want to be made fun of at this new school. I turned out fine I had basically no marks I woke up feeling fine. I started middle school and middle school was honestly the years I felt lost and at the same time I had the friends I so badly wanted. Middle school was tough for me because instead of being able to take an extra class instead of doing
It's been over two weeks and Evan is still not sure what he's gotten himself into and the only one to blame is himself and his wired therapy letters. So now where is he? Oh yeah, pretending to be Connor Murphy's best friend because his parents thought he wrote a suicide note to Evan. And of course, he just went with it. Told the Murphy's all about his great friendship with their son who was surely going to kill him once he woke up. Evan would love it if the ground could just open up and swallow him whole. His phone ringing interrupts his daydream about no longer existing. Evan pulls his phone out of his pocket and blanches when he sees it's Mrs. Murphy.
One Friday, I came home from work as usual at 6pm, and sat down at my dining table. I had in front of me a glass of red wine, about a hundred pills, a blade, and some alcohol pads for disinfection. I was having a fight with my boyfriend over text, who was in Charlotte at that moment for business. Once he stopped replying, I sent him a text that read, “I am going to kill myself.” Within minutes, I heard someone bang on my door. It was the police. My boyfriend had called 911 to report my potential suicide. I had been mentioning suicide in our conversations for a few weeks, to be fair. Caught in the scene, I was brought to New York Presbyterian Psychiatric Emergency Room in an ambulance. “How much is this going to cost? Because I can’t afford
The guys and I were parked infront of this highschool we had spotted while buying food last week. We has taken a black van in an attempt to blend in. Maybe the people that notice will think we were just deliering things and there won’t be a problem. I decided that this was a good school for the shoot up because there were a lot of suicides and there appeared to be cliques by the way groups of people would meet eachother before disappearing into the school. Are plan was to wait till first period was going before sneaking in and attacking classrooms one by one. It was a fairly small school and it would be a pretty simple task if there weren’t any problems. The guys were getting impatient and I was trying to find was to entertain them, Nick was
Morning came much too quickly, I barely managed a few hours of sleep. A beam of light shot straight into my vision, having penetrated the thin curtains. The droning of my alarm clock piercing my sub conscious. I would have to find a taxi to drive me to my workplace, so I left earlier than normal.
comes back full force. My straight A’s start to drop to D’s and E’s, I quit all my after-school activities, stopped talking to everyone, and started to skip school almost everyday. I had always struggled with depression, but it had never been this bad before, I felt like I was drowning and she was pulling me down with her. I struggled a lot with my depression, I had to go to the emergency room twice during the school year for suicide attempts, I just wanted to give up on everything. During this time things kept getting worse and worse, tension kept on building between my mom and me and I still hadn't seen my dad. I remember that night so clearly as if it was yesterday. My mom and I had been arguing all day, We were in my room and kept on arguing
Last February, I wanted to commit suicide. Years of masking my depression had caught up to me, trapping me in an endless pit. Luckily, in a moment of panic, I decided to tell someone before ending my life.
Stop and imagine this, your best friend, one of your family members, your cousin could end their life without you knowing about it. April 2015, I had a shock of the life time. It was the time everyone in my family came together as one. You always think it can’t happen to you when it does. Till this day I think of this moment, when my cousin attempted to commit suicide.
It’s as if time has stopped entirely, standing there frozen in time. I can’t move, I can’t speak, I just stand there. I stand there in my own depression, surrounded by darkness. Each time it passes over me, it hits me like a tsunami, with its brute force destroying everything in its path. There have been times where I’ve been driven to commit suicide, just simply pulling out my step-father’s forty-five caliber pistol, loaded with hollow-point rounds. The darkness consumes me, whispers in my ear, “just pull the trigger you worthless shit”. “Nobody would care if you died, so just die”. I tried to tune it out, but instead, it just got louder, as if it went from whispering to yelling. I never could pull the trigger.
On the news this nine-year old Jackson Grubb committed suicide because he was getting bullied in school. That's just the beginning of the story we will find out how he committed suicide at the end of the story. Jackson was getting bullied in school. Jackson lived in Raleigh county, West Virginia with his older sister and parents. His parents were devastated when their daughter found him dead one day after school in their back yard. This was going on far too long in school, but you also got to think that he did not tell anyone and if he did who ever he told did not listen. So Jackson thought that if he committed suicide that the bullies would forget all about him. My question is, Why does everyone almost gets bullied and commits suicide? Have you ever and I mean ever thought that your young kid is getting bullied in school and he or she has not told you so that you can do something
