I'm considering 5150ing myself but I can't afford it. What do I do?

I got sent to a hospital on a hold like that and I left more depressed than when I went in. I guess what I'm saying is that if you are conscious enough to make a choice like that then you're capable of finding a better way of going about it. The hospital doesn't always help so I wouldn't waste the money on a maybe. I would start by going to a hospital and asking if there is a way you can speak to someone and be honest about your situation both financially and mentally. I liked the answer that said look into what a college can do for you, they usually do have things and they tend to be reasonable. In my mind what you're planning isn't the best idea but if it keeps you from doing something stupid then eat the cost.

check local churches as some do provide free counseling (not going to convert you) and some for a minimal charge like $5 bucks or so. Or if you live near a university, you can call their psychology department and ask if they have free psychological service; universities have psychology graduates ready to help our the community. So ask one or the other because to waste/end it because life seems so upside down is not your only option. Sean, no matter how difficult things get, how much things hurt, or you have memories that hurt deep inside you, your future is in your hands so live and prosper and see the wonders that lay before you but you my friend must be alive to enjoy what is there for you. Remember, only you can affect your life so don't let a thing press you to this choice. Don't throw it all away guy

Try 1-800-273-TALK (8255). It's free. There are people on the other end, always, who can talk to you and give you advice on what to do. It's what they are there for; it's what they are trained to do. They will be able to give you useful information, more so than me or probably anyone else on here. Whatever it is that's on your chest. They won't judge. Go, do it, now.

If I got over my suicidal depression at 15 then you sure as hell can get over your problems. You need to get your mind off it. Exercise is the best way, especially sports like karate or boxing that will toughen you up as a bonus. Else try video games or rock climbing or w/e. speak to a counselor, and talk to your family about this, talking makes everything better. Only a real human recognizes when they need help. What I always do when I’m sad is watch vine or cat videos and such, or read mike Tyson quotes. The past is the past, wondering about it accomplishes nothing. it's the future that's important. Focus on the present. You’ll never get anywhere in life if you care about what randoms say about you; you need to ignore all hater. You need to stay strong and slam on, that’s the ticket to success.

You’re not a waste of space, everyone is special, and everyone has the potential for greatness, just like you. Stop sulking over problems that does nothing. No one ever got anywhere by crying about it. Use your humility earned from suffering to be a batter person. You are very lucky, you know what pain is, and you know how to avoid it. Looks are meaningless and can be changed with surgery or exercise, a good heart is what matters. Once you have that, you’ll need nothing else. You’re just a person- everyone is just a person, yet many have done incredible things and lived incredible lives. You could be next, you just need to believe, and then achieve. All you need in life to succeed is willpower. If you don’t like yourself, CHANGE yourself. If you want something, TAKE it. Everyone is born with a unique range of talents different from others; you just need to find them and use them to achieve greatness. Ignore all haters; let nothing stand in your way, just like heroes of yore. If you want a purpose in life, try helping others for a change. Lots of people are suffering in the world- and you have the power to help them it’s expected if you're religious. If you do good in the world, then everything will work out for you. Consider lions club international which is a great club where you get to not only help others out, but also meet new friends and potential lovers. It’s great in every way. Or you could even join the police. Don’t be a random good for nothing anybody like everyone else. Be different, be superior. Don’t let evil win.

Remember that killing yourself is a selfish coward’s act, and you'll go to hell for it. So many people are suffering in the world, are you just going to ignore them, and kill yourself? Are you so evil you don’t care about the suffering of others? What about your family and friends? Have some balls man. Or are you a little p()ssy?

You think you have it rough? There are people with infinitely greater problems, take a look at these types of videos, they’re guaranteed to cheer you up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gc4HGQHgeFE , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIK7y66JNYw if they’re missing limbs yet still get by in life, then you sure as hell can to! Cherish what you have. Most people don’t. As a last resort you could convert to religion, it usually helps. Priests do everything in their power to help others; you’d be among good selfless people who would only want the best for you in Christianity.

don't give up ,life is so beautiful, so full of love and joy and purity, you just have to fight for it first.
