Do you ever think about killing yourself?

Not that i've ever truely considered it...

But I quite often find myself thinking about killing myself. like shooting myself, or driving into oncoming traffic.

Is this normal?

Update:

@Luis I said I've never truely considered it, or attempted anything. Sometimes I just find myself wondering what would happen if I did kill myself

    Sometimes its comforting to know there is an exit, even if you aren't going to use it. Seeing the door makes a person feel less trapped. I often imagine myself hanging from the big oak tree outside work. Or driving off the edge of the road. Maybe normal intrusive thoughts, which occur with most people at some point, but if the thoughts become a problem you should seek help. Maybe look at what triggers these thoughts (work? A relationship? Boredom?) that's probably what you need to fix. Or how the thought of killing yourself makes you feel - revenge? That will show them? Free from a situation? When the mind conjours up a radical suggestion like this maybe there is some aspect of your life you need to fix.
