good way to attempt suicide without dying?

im gonna spare you my stupid sob story and all my problems listed out like they are going to make you pitty me. ok so i have thought about suicide many times and have made half hearted attempts in the past. im on anti depressants and have been for 5 months.. they arnt doing ****. all that my parents know is that i am having problems at school.. they barley know anything at all.

i want a way that i can attempt suicide where its most likely to fail but it will be enough to get me to hospital.. im not attention seeking, i would just love to show my parents that my problems are real and enough for them to actually care about enough to get me help... they just dont believe my problems are all that serious... they are (at least to me anyway)

i can just tell them cus my parents have never suffered from depression of any kind b4, so they are useless on the subject. ide love to just show them that they are real.

any help? please no hate... this wasn't easy for me to post.

i in no way want attention from anyone other than my parents. and even then its not attention... i just want to let them know how much these multipull disorders are destroying me.

    If you really feel like you can't tell your parents then talk to your doctor, or even call the Samaritans as they will definitely understand and help you through this. You could even ask them how to make your parents take this more seriously. Do NOT attempt suicide because one there is no guarantee you wouldn't die and two I've been there and its not good. Maybe admitting yourself to a mental ward would benefit you.

    http://www.samaritans.org/ there is the website for the Samaritans, I hope this helps.

    Again once I was younger i tried a couple of times to kill myself... Via man exceptional approaches. And i'm nonetheless alive in these days. I did things like reduce my wrist, stab myself within the fingers, drink bleach, choke myself, hold myself, breath in CO2 and no oxygen. However at any time when some thing occurred where it failed to work out. So it makes me feel that might be I should be right here. That simply might be i'll turn out to be anything high-quality, and destiny just needed to let it occur. In case your asking this question your definitely troubled, and most likly younger. Everybody has a point in there lifestyles when they need to die. Even essentially the most blissful preppy individuals. Some are simply better at hiding it. My advice to you is simply suppose in regards to the matters and men and women you care about and what would happen when you have been gone. I've although about suicide lately, but i am pregnant, my baby would have never had a life. I are not able to take that faraway from any individual else... Simply suppose about what you care about and who cares about you. Dont ever believe that no person cares.

    I got ADD and that's making it really hard to work and focus on school, I have had "special help" since I were in middle school and I recently had enough of it, I know that Im not Retarded in anyway, but the teachers makes me feel like I am!

    I have been depressed because of that and many other things like how my body looks, and that I never have had a girlfriend but everyone else seem to end up in a relationship, and I have been bullied whole middle school and my parents are divorced and I rarely see my father and when I do, its always fighting and he looks down at me like I am never going to be anything,

    before doing anything man, why dont you reflect on what is good in your life because if you only think about whats bad in your life you get depressed, do something travel/music festivals anything, if you forget the ******* piece of **** school and do awesome stuff you wont be sad or depressed will you?

    It will always get better that's what i tell myself

    Do you have a mental problem by any chance? I would sujested seeing another doctor. There are heaps of other meds out there you can try. I tried heaps myself and none worked. I have ended up in hospital twice by overdose on meds with alcohole. I took my depression tablets. Over 8000 mg of them and I almost had a stroke. I was in hospital for 3 nights, mental ward for one night and then I talked my way out. Then was put onto a syk team for months. Every attempt if trying to kill yourself, can infact kill you. you already know ways of trying to do it. It's not rocket science. So why post this? Most people will have a go at you. But nobody can help you but you. If you really want your parents to know then talk to them. It's your only chance. Attempting to kill yourself is not the answer. Do you want your parents to find you? What if they don't in time and then you do die? Do you want to put them through the paid of finding their dead child? Im a mum and I would hate that. Parents want you to come to them. And being a teenager (assuming you are as your in school and talking about you parents) is hard for everyone. I was bullied, virgin rapped and then in a abusive relationship who rapped me over and over and much worse things. While I was pregnant too.... Life's a *****.
