any suicide survivors here?

what has helped you so far to say positive with life? please share

I am just wondering,How can you survive suicide?

Acceptance ! You cant always be in a positive mood. Sometimes life is cruel. That's reality and you have to carry on.

Make a realistic plan for something that you wish to achieve and work towards it. A sense of achievement is one of the most uplifting things for the soul, in my opinion,

Hope this helps.

Maybe 'suicide failures', instead of "suicide survivors"?

Remember when the going gets rough
take your trousers off and slide on the ice.

@sharo @Stephenson

A person who is on the brink of taking their own life and then finds the strength not to do so, is a survivor. Not of the act of suicide but of the suicidal state of mind which some people have to endure.

When such a person asks for help please don't trivialise their request with semantics.

So they survived their own threat to themselves? That's a bit much. A "survivor" survives threats to their lives from outside forces. People who decide not to kill themselves shouldn't mock true survivors by referring to themselves as a "survivor".;)

Indeed, I don't think one can survive suicide, just fail at it.

Tiresome to see people trivialise this topic. 40,000 Americans commit suicide each year - every country has a significant problem. There are two reasons why this is not just about individuals and their private decisions. 1. The numbers fluctuate in line with social changes and increases or reductions can often be correlated with specific social factors. 2. Resources can be invested in successful programmes to reduce the incidence of suicide. People in countries with serious levels of suicide should be ashamed and should demand improvements, not indulge in victim blaming.

300,000,000 million people in USA 40,000 dead that is small number not a big number. The victims should seek help not go to impersonal forum post
