For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.When I was a little boy I was physically abused/tortured by my father ( hit, burned, cut etc) who at the time and afterwards I felt had taken utter control over every aspect of my life as what he did was so all consuming that all day I couldn't really think of anything else at all.Obviously I didn't want this to happen but I couldn't stop him and I felt awful and desperate so for me thoughts about suicide when still a very small child was actually about regaining my power and taking control back from someone who was abusing me.I felt it would have given me control and a form of reassertion and defiance. As it goes my father was killed when I was seven so I got a lucky break in some ways but even when I was older the same thing applied, I self harmed until I had "gone over" every mark he'd ever put on me, then they were my marks and didn't bother me anymore,so for me self harming was not destructive either, it was part of a much bigger healing process. It sounds absurd but it is I think literally sometimes suicide is merely a way in which the person can regain some level of control over themselevs, others and the way they feel when they see no other way of doing so.
I think it is a brave thing to do by and large but when it's contemplated you feel so awful that you are unable to adequately judge the pain you'll cause some you leave behind.I think it's also important to remember that thoughts/ feelings change on a minute by minute basis and that the overwhelming feeling of the need to commit suicide is actually only an inability to cope in that partcular time frame. Things do alter and I'm so glad that I never did kill myself as my life is extremely happy now.
