Did you speak with a professional counselor about your issues?

Nah. And I don't have enough money anymore to do that. That was probably very dumb thing to do, but whatever.

There are still services like: http://www.suicidepreventionlifeline.org/ If you aren't in the US, which country are you from?

If you aren't in the US, which country are you from?

Didn't notice this question. I'm from Finland.

I found this link with information to a Finnish suicide hotline: http://www.suicide.org/hotlines/international/finland-suicide-hotlines.html

I would be pretty confident that there are free counseling options available in Finland for people who have borderline personality disorder and are contemplating suicide. It's not like you live in a third world country with a bad safety net.

Those people usually have such a different way of thinking that I feel even more alienated. I don't want to be convinced out of suicide, I'm not even sure if I want help.

Then what about talking with your family?

Comment author: raisin 29 May 2014 01:41:41PM 0 points [-]

I don't feel particularly close to them, so that's an even more difficult thing to do.

It's probably an easier thing to do then committing suicide.

Then it's not a problem. If it's easier, then I will talk to them, if it's not, I will commit suicide. It may very well be that I will talk to them even though it will be very painful, only time will tell.
