Lots of us have thought of it. I've thought of it many times over the years. For me, it's an option I keep in case I develop some disease or injury I can't cope with. I see no reason for me to stick around with Alzheimer's or terminal cancer. Other than that, I lost every dream I ever had about 3 years ago. I almost took off then, but I decided to stick around and see what happened, knowing I could leave at any time.

As it turns out, my life is slowly coming back to me. I'm finding new dreams. I now know I have AS, so I'll handle my next job a lot better than before. Maybe I can start over again. I'm only 51, so why not?

You don't see a path to happiness right now and you sure as hell don't see why you deserve to be miserable for the rest of your life. You won't unless you choose to be. Most people I've seen have about 10 failures for every success in life. You'll learn more from one failure than from one hundred successes. Don't drag yourself down with them, just learn the lesson and move on. That's one damn hard lesson for Aspies to learn.

It takes time for new things to come around to anyone's life. I hope you'll stick around and find out what's coming your way that's better than you ever thought was possible.

Look, I don't know why you want to kill yourself but I assure you; things have a habit of turning around. I lost my father recently and a couple of weeks later I got dumped by my psychotic girlfriend (over a haircut); there is no hope in my family and the only other person with AS at my school has gone juvenile and no longer cares about me (nor anyone else).
But I keep on going, because I remember what I still have; what I have not lost. I still have my best friend, I still have my mother, my sister, most of my other friends. There will always be something left to live for, something worth waking up every morning for. You just need to find it, if you would like (and if you have an msn) if you send me a message then I will send you a personal message with my msn add on, we'll talk this through. I certainly don't want you killing yourself.
Having Asperger syndrome involves being different from most other people and sometimes people don't appreciate this, you are not the only one in your position, i'm sure you've figured that out from joining us.

never seriously thought about it, but usually when thoughts of suicide come up, I realize I just need a vacation...

Gad, to be 20 again. You have a gift, no matter how bad it gets, you're still young. Enjoy it. The only person who can hold you down is yourself. So hang in there....

Hellz yeah I thought about it, especially at that age... everything seemed so... insurmountable. But seriously, since you don't even indicate what continent you're on in your profile, IF you have nationalized health care, get to a hospital. If you're in the US, and don't have access to decent health insurance, (Gaia help me... for having to say it) go to the closest emergency room. DON'T just accept some antidepressants from a Resident and leave with an appointment card for a free clinic counselor. MAKE them listen to you and understand that you are suicidal. You're either depressed or on the down side of a mood disorder swing. Either way, while Asperger's and Autism aren't "diseases", mood disorders ARE. They can be treated, but depression and swing mood disorders HAVE to be treated differently. Giving antidepressants and nothing else to someone with a bipolar condition is asking for all hell to break loose. If your moods swing back and forth you need mood stabilizers, you HAVE to tell a doctor that. They SUCK at guessing, "House" episodes notwithstanding. I've been there, I think MOST of us have at some point, but you have to get help, especially if you're in the US, because treatment here is really patchy. Unless they understand that you are suicidal and mean it, they won't admit you if you're not a danger to anyone else. You're right, all of us on the spectrum are blood. We share something so basic most of the rest of humanity doesn't even really know about it. So I'm saying, get help bro. NOW.

If you are feeling that way, my suggestion is to immediately call a telephone crisis hotline. You don't even need to give them your name.

Anytime, better to have a problem than to hide it. I hope you feel a bit better and you're not going to do it.
