I want to write a story where Suicide is a prime motivation for my main character.
Without revealing too much... In the very start of the story my character commits suicide, but after surviving, it decides to help others.
The problem is that being a normie that never ever got any close to seriously pondering suicide i can't wrap my head around the actual feelings people go through people in that state of desperation.
This isn't my first attempt of educating myself in the matter. I tried for about two years, researching about this topic. Forcing myself into depression, reading through sucide help blogs, actually pretending to be a sucidal person and asking for help from others in the vain hope of just get close to understading...
This is the first time i'm coming out of my closet to reveal anonymously that i don't know what the hell i'm doing and asking for help.
Any tips? Guidance? I'm listening.

Y'tell me, Doc.
I'm just looking for help writting a suicide story.
I got bipolar, I lived with it(suicide thoughts) basically constantly in my head for several months and had plans. Every depression I get a little closer. On meds now tho so we'll see wat happens. Idk be really fucking horrible to your friends and family so they all hate you, preferably make it really bitter and personal. Basically just make yourself evil. Then tell yourself constantly that you'll never achieve anything and will end up homeless once your parents die.
That's what worked for me.

It's quite hard to force yourself into that point. It's very hard to do that being a normie.

hmm. Maybe deprive yourself of sleep, 2 or 3 hours for five or six days. Depression feels a lot like being exhausted if it's severe. Then just start thinking really negative.
>>2636835
oooh also isolation. Social isolation is almost essential because when your depressed you don't want to talk to anyone and just stay in your bed.

Also trying to force yourself into suicidal thoughts doesn't scream "normie" to me.

Well... I don't consider myself to be anything but a normie. Really. Maybe i'm just that weird.
Meh. Normie seems more accurately degradating.
It's very easy to become suicidal. Just commit a crime and get caught. As the impending court date comes and you ponder how your life will now be filled with butt rape and poor career outcomes, you'll feel suicidal.
Another suggestion. It is a well known fact amongst professionals (but not teenagers and low income people) that the intelligence services have remote technology that can alter physiological states of a target. See for example Putin's statement that these kinds of weapons, or "zombie rays" are more important than nuclear weapons. Anyway people who protest army bases usually become suicidal and depressed (they are bombarded with EMR radiation making them this way without their knowledge). So that's your shortcut to depression and suicidal thoughts OP. Start protesting the presence of drone bases or whatever.
The only problem is, how will you write your book after you've killed yourself?
