Man, if you are this low you are in a lucky position you can say f'ck the consequences of whatever I do cause you might as well be dead anyway right?? apart from all the other obvious benefits it'd sure be a lot more fun than killing yourself !

You're 17, you can't possibly know whats ahead of you in life. You haven't fully developed intellectually or emotionally yet. Everything can change. You WILL be in a different situation 5 years from now, but your actions will determine where you will be.

SA/depression are just limited ways of seeing the world, don't let them blind you !

Kien: you bring up an interesting philosophical point, but we are talking about a person's life.. you wouldn't kill your self, so please don't encourage someone else to

your fucking 17 years old dude. still a long life to live. your life is not over. thereiis still plenty of time to change your ways. committing suicide would be so pathetic.


Ditto that.
You're only 17, you've only been on the earth for 17 out of what could be 80 or 90 odd years!
Things will change for you at some point, and it is well within your power to speed that process along!

STOP sitting around feeling sorry for yourself and do something about it! Everybody has things that will make life hard for them, it just so happens that yours are SA and depression currently. Put that into perspective, it isn't impossible for you to overcome these things, you just gotta desperately want to do it.
Do you? Or would you rather just complain about it?

Come on, you're so much better than this! Wink

It's not how fast you can go
The force goes into the flow
If you pick up the beat
You can forget about the heat
More than just survival
More than just a flash
More than just a dotted line
More than just a dash

It's a test of ultimate will
The heartbreak climb uphill
Got to pick up the pace
If you want to stay in the race
More than just blind ambition
More than just simple greed
More than just a finish line
Must feed this burning need
In the long run...

[Chorus:]
From first to last
The peak is never passed
Something always fires the light that gets in your eyes
One moment's high, and glory rolls on by
Like a streak of lightning
That flashes and fades in the summer sky

Your meters may overload
You can rest at the side of the road
You can miss a stride
But nobody gets a free ride

More than high performance
More than just a spark
More than just the bottom line
Or a lucky shot in the dark
In the long run...

[Chorus]

You can do a lot in a lifetime
If you don't burn out too fast
You can make the most of the distance
First you need endurance
First you've got to last...

[Chorus]

-A final end to the knowledge that I will never, ever, experience the embrace of a woman; that I will never form any kind of relationship, and will remain a virgin to the very day of my natural death.

--Why can't you get a mail-order bride eventually? Anyone can experience the embrace of a woman. It just takes some patience and knowing where to look. There are plenty of nice ladies that would be interested in you. You appear to be smart and after a few yrs of college,you will be making good money.

-A final end to my addiction to the internet and masturbation. Masturbation is the one thing that temporarily suppresses my sex drive; however, the amount of time it is suppressed is rapidly decreasing with each successive masturbation, and the brief feeling of semi-pleasure it causes is doing likewise.

--porn addiction can be real trouble. I'd try to get rid of that stuff or at least use a milder form of the "drug". It tends to leave many guys dissatisfied with their current situations too.

--I'm confident that the love you give them is worth far more than $11,000. Also,it seems kinder to them to stick around and take classes at school or from home and then work to repay them for their kindness to you.

-A final end to the knowledge that my college career (if I go to college) will be even more suppressing and mentally demeaning than my high school career, of which I will be entering the final year of come the end of this summer.

College is never as bad as public schools. People are much nicer in college and everything tends to get better. By the way,some states in the US allow one to enter college early and earn credits for **both** high school & college. You might want to consider that.
Lastly,even if your social anxiety is through the roof at school or something,you can take classes from home. Computer careers and many other things are available to take from home. You may want to go to Youtube and check out the MIT courses they offer on there. You have TONS of options.

-A final end to myself being tormented each and every day, seeing guy after guy make smalltalk and have fun with girl after girl, while knowing this will never be myself. Whoever is controlling my life wanted to make it clear to me that I am less than a fraction of a human being, living in a couples world.

You're defining a happy life in the wrong way. Also,things will get better **if**.....**if**....you don't give up. I don't often throw about the word "certain" with such things as this but I feel free to do so in this case. I am certain they will get better **if** you don't give up.

I don't think that suicide can ever be a philanthropic act. Like others said,if you care about the earth,stick around and try to make it better. Smile

Committing suicide cons:
-May cause temporary pain to the small amount of family members that care about me. But then again, it would end my parasitic attachment to them and, of course, I would not be around to feel bad about it.

I knew a guy who (sort of) committed suicide and I think that he thought that he wouldn't cause much pain to his family and it wouldn't last. The pain goes on and on and never completely heals. It won't truly be a temporary pain to your family members. Crying or Very sad

My brother had committed suicide about six years ago, it was a horrible experience for me and my parents.
