I'm feeling pretty god damn low right now, like I'm isolated or something. Thinking of doing something to myself but am not sure what. Maybe some good tunes would help on the matter. That is to say songs about suicide and such.

Not sure how serious you are Psydye, but there's always a dawn - just sometimes the dark seems to go on an awful long time.

Anyway if you're that low I'm not sure that analysing lyrics from songs about suicide is going to help much, mate. Speaking to someone is probably better.

What's up, man? I think we've all been through some dark times in life and contemplated drastic measures but it always gets better if you find a way to make it happen. Possibilities and alternative measures are all around us if we choose to seek them out. Hope you get out of your funk and find some inspiration in your life. I agree with Chris that perhaps suicide songs aren't exactly what the doctor ordered at this time. Find more uplifting music.

I'm sorry to hear that you've been going through some tough times, I can relate. I often feel depressed and have been in a similar place. Music and faith keeps me going, and I try to keep hope and find things to enjoy in life when I'm down. It's good to have people to talk to about it, even if it's just a respectful online community like MMA.

Speaking from personal experience, depressing music can help me get through the depression. I think the catharsis from hearing lyrics that you can relate to can really help sometimes. I agree though that depending on the mood it's not the best to listen to, and also everyone reacts differently to different music.

^ yeah, I do understand where Khaliq and Psydye are coming from. Sometimes we want to know someone shares our thoughts and feelings and understands where we are. It's a fine line though and we need to be careful that in looking for someone to validate how we are feeling, we let it distract us from finding a way out of the mire. And there is always a way out.

Firstly, don't do anything stupid. Not sure if that thought is in your mind or if you're simply looking for something to relate to.

Secondly, there's a whole genre pretty much dedicated to this and other dark topics.

That makes sense. I'm a freak. I never do anything or react the same way as anyone else. I agree with HeavyMetalCat. Just don't do anything stupid. Realize you have lots of friends out here even if you've never seen any faces Wink

Here's mine:


So, no matter what's happening in your life, at least you don't look like me

Fuck it. I'm going with what was requested.















This isn't strictly about suicide, but it's always seemed like it to me.
