coward?
Am I a coward because I couldn't commit suicide. I had the note and everything ready, I even had a date set to do it. But I couldn't go through with it. I just feel worse that I didn't try, and it is harder for me to function as the hours pass by. I was ready but I couldn't do it, even though I am not scared of death. I couldn't do it, Whats wrong with me?!

Thank you for reaching out to 2NDFLOOR. You are absolutely NOT a coward. Fighting through the thoughts of suicide and not attempting to end your life shows just how strong you are. If you are having thoughts of suicide or believe that you might attempt suicide contact 911 right away or call the Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1 800 273 8255 to talk about these thoughts. You don't have to feel this way all the time. Reach out for help! Tell your parents or someone you trust and talk to a counselor/therapist. It's important to understand why you are having these thoughts and get you the help that you need and deserve. Remember suicide is a very permanent answer to a temporary problem.
