Bitcoin Forum

You once made it big and all of a sudden, you saw yourself on the other side of financial misfortune.
Family seems to desert you, and friends wouldn't come to your rescue.
You've striven severally to get up again, yet to no avail.
Now you're on crypto but made one unfavorable crypto based investment.
Your world seems to be crumbling and you're contemplating suicide ???......

What advice / wordings do you have for such a person? :'(

Depends on many things.  If they are young, I would tell them they still have lots of time.  I would remind them suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.

ADVICE:
This is pathetic...
For me, i'll do the following...
-Recommend some self esteem enhancing books for the person.
-If the person's condition is critical, i'll call in a psychologist

Thanks for the hint,
Any advice on the necessary steps the person can take to get out of such self defeating thoughts?

Many Thanks @meklinks4,
Please, can you mention any of the books you'll recommend?
someone out here might be needing the assistance?

The best thing you can do to instantly improve your mood is simply to smile.  :)

Think about:
The power of positive thinking by...
For more?
Let the person make google his companion in such related issue.

Wow, that's huge.
Thanks for the input!

I agree. Suicide is not the solution. It might feel permanent, but it doesn't have to be. Tell this person that even though you think that the people you thought you can count on couldn't be there for you, know that you can still come (here) for support.

This life is so sweet;
Makes me wonder why someone will ever consider suicide...
Does the person have a girl friend?
I guess the person needs a girlfriend after all.

Hmmm....
ok, thanks!

So in all of it all; i can say...
let the person form the habit of smiling, reading things that activates positive vibes, make them know they still have time to make amends, and if the situation seems critical; he/she should see a psychologist?

Missing out something? ::)

A thing im thinking over and over again. but its not easy to just die ,my friend . you may not know but your absence could mean hell for someone. your loss might lead another to death or worse a  loss that one cant come ever . who knows? think about it.

God help thee who helps themselves ,my friend , i can relate to what your facing . but in a world like this i can only say never lose hope , onward and upward  .

its kind of like harry potters "patronus charm and dementor"  metaphore . dementor is the reason for you wanting to commit suicide and your patronus is the very good memory that keeps u away from suicide thought.try it out friend, if you get my wind . godspeed.

True talk,
so what are the recipes aimed at overcoming negative vibes for a happy living?

But we all make mistakes, does that mean God doesn't help those that makes mistakes?
what do you say to someone who's mistakes have taken a great toll on?
Non passive contribution will be of great assist.

Mistakes can be heavy. Some can be unforgettable. Talking to a psychiatrist about it will help. Life goes on, the sun will shine anew every day for as far as we all know here so to remain with pity or misery about the past is an useless pressure for anyone. Keep your head up.

About the situation:
Feeling so bad about the life situation that suicide is a consideration may be a brain's way of informing one things need to drastically change. Don't ignore this feeling, consider why it's there. You mentioned a bad financial situation for that person. It will give satisfaction to overcome that situation, probably by working off the debt. If it's severe, as in humanely impossible to pay back, bankruptcy is an option. In my country 4 years of your income will be taken, the minimum for base living needs and a bit for leisure aside. After this period any other debt cannot be claimed anymore. However I doubt it's that severe, so I am positive this person can work off his debt. I'd suggest keeping track of how much is paid off. In the beginning it'll seem like climbing a mountain, often doing tedious work for money never seen or spend. But the closer one gets to the peak of the mountain, and then over it, the more the brain will feel contempt with the efforts.
Besides this I'd recommend sport, and working out. It'll help relieve stress, and give personal gratitude. If said person has to put him or herself through a bit of a rough time, they might as well become stronger of it. Reaching milestones on this also creates an additional satisfaction with oneself. Furthermore keep some time free, an hour or two a day, to do something really enjoyable. For me it's movies and music, for another person it might differ.
Engaging in all these things will also help to meet new people. Be open for that. Steer conversations to something positive and enjoy building new connections with people. The financial situation is a restraint, but besides that I see a lot of opportunity to experience and be inspired by becoming more active in society.

Are you aware of the fairy tale that you go to hell if you kill yourself?  

If you really believe in that nonsense, you won't be committing suicide.  :)

If you are depressed - first look left. Then look right. Just make sure that you are not surrounded by assholes that make you feel depressed.

But more seriously...

When things get tough is usually when you learn the most.

You learn who your friends are.
You learn how to solve difficult problems.

Financial pressure seems crippling - but really - what it the worst case scenario ?
People recover from the worst financial disasters.

Being depressed is often a chemical imbalance - so there is medication that can assist.

It is not something that can really be solved on a forum - it is better to seek professional counselling and talk to your doctor.

Tell them Bitcoin ETF's are going to be approved by SEC in next few weeks ! HODL :) :-\

Only if you fight for it  ;D

wow;
you're already sounding like a psychologist...lol
Thanks for that wonderful contribution.

Lol @ vod;
if it's indeed a nonsense, then there's no point beleiving in it.
but i believe life is sacred and do get your point.

Thanks so much bro/sis?

Well said dear;
That of making sure you aint surrounded by folks that makes you feel depressed is huge.
In the end, i believe all of these contributions will help.
Drugs can only be recommended by a proffessional.

I think good music helps.
Has a way of ministering to your spirit  ;D

Sure; suicidal thoughts can be selfish :-[

Dont indulge in that pleasure of u being successful and sht. You know what they say. People only go near you if ur actually successful. Go to those people whom are still with u when u r in ur most problematic times. And if ur planning to suicide DUDE dont. YOU Have to smack them in the face once more and show them that it was a mistake for them to leave you even in ur darkest times. Show them how u really have ability to rise to the top.

Thanks bro!

Nice one bro,
The challenge game, i guess?
This will prove useful!

there is always a way to solve your problem and that is not by committing suicide, don't forget to pray. Godbless

Bless you too 8)

dude , this guys right. its selfish

Our lives will not succeed if we complain too much, live our lives positively, we must fight to resist the trials of life, when we succeed later, we will surely appreciate what we strive for in the past.

Nice; but how do you advice one to go about calming the storm?

Thanks, it wasn't my intention to sound like a psychologist though! But I've seen how life can be. To myself, and to others. So to some extend I feel you and thought I should shine a light on it from an objective point of view. I sincerely hope you'll do well, let me know if you take me up on some of those tips. Feel free to PM me any time  ;)

He must think that he will burn in hell if he does that

Nice encouragement from Bitcointalk loving peeps.

Thank you all

Best advice I can give you is to get 5 grams of cocaine, pay 2 prostitutes and a hotel room for 2 days, after this you will get these thoughts out of your head.

Don't give up on life.It is very beautiful but i know it is hard, just live as you want, don t let anybody to tell you what to do.The love in another being might help you find the purpose in life or might not but don't ever give up.

I've been there before and I still struggle with those thoughts, when you are not financially secure life can be extremely stressful and it can seem like there is no way out.
