Today, I called a suicide prevention hotline. No one picked up. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Classic been there, done that
Today, in a state of severe depression and fearing I might do the worst, I called my local suicide helpline. I was put on hold. FML
Talk to me
Today, I called the suicide hotline, only to get lectured by a very condescending man. I hung up and called back, only for the other line to pick up and hang up on me immediately. FML
You're at home here
Today, after years of struggling with poor mental health, my depression convinced me that no one would ever care enough about me to help if I reached out. I called the local suicide hotline anyway. They didn’t answer. Twice. FML
Waste of a phone call
Today, I called the suicide hotline after two months of recurring thoughts. I got put on hold by their machine, then was on call with someone who barely spoke English, got transferred to another building, so I was put on hold again, and finally got hung up on. I was already feeling pretty worthless, so thanks guys. FML
Some friends you've got there
Today, I wrote a post about how I was thinking of attempting suicide. Not one single person contacted me to see if I was alright. FML
Crisis
Today, I called the crisis helpline, and because my connection was cutting in and out for a moment, they hung up on me. When I called back, it was shift change, so they hung up again. FML
Today, a girl I've liked for several years gave me her number. Finally, I worked up the courage to call her. It was a suicide help line. FML
Don't know, don't care
Today, I realised that if I died, no one would care. I know this because when I called my partner distressed last night, he told me he needed to sleep and hung up in less than 45 seconds, and a friend told me to call lifeline. I haven’t heard from either of them since. FML
Old lady hotline
Today, I called the Suicide hotline. I dialled the number wrong and woke some poor old lady. She thought I was her son and kept asking me, "How come you don't visit anymore?" I told her I couldn't visit because of the Covid pandemic. I lied to an elderly woman I've never met. FML
Message in a virtual bottle
Today, I was feeling extremely depressed and worthless, so I decided to use the crisis chat. I told them I felt lonely and worthless, and had nobody to talk to. They never responded. FML

Owch, that's a kick to the balls. But don't let a phone line discourage you. Just keep swimming...

Do what Barney does, when he is sad. He stops being sad, and instead, becomes awesome. You should do this too

How does the OP deserve it? However, if the OP was really suicidal, he wouldn't have taken the time to post this FML.

Or hes posting it as a last try to get help. I went with my church saturday to see a movie called To Save A Life. It's about a kid who commits suicide because he doesn't have friends. As a last attempt to get help, he went to church, but was ignored. So yeah, maybe this is his last attempt to get help, and all you jerks who are doubting him, just leave him alone. Your not helping. And please don't kill yourself. Nothing is worth losing your life over. If you were to end your life now, you would never experience what God has planned for you in the future. Yes, times may be difficult now, but, you must be strong. I will pray for you my friend :)

I fully agree with you, it pisses me that people make fun of people wanting to commit suicide. my best friend was just in the hospital for being suicidal, and depressed... I put a hole through the door to save his life, he most likely posted this FML to get help...

I freaking love that movie, but the church I go to won't show it be couse it has 'too much violence.' when it really doesn't. and anyway I was and kinda am depressed and they say get over it but you can't do it alone so get some help for your sake.

Why kill yourself when you have FML?... wait, no that's not a very good arguement.

Jen, in case you can't read or differentiate numbers that's definitely the same person as #11- and they never said they were first. Your fail became and epic fail. Congratulations.
