Sleep Is Death...What will it mean whenever somebody says or implies I need to die? Do they in reality wish their lives to end? Or is it the grief that they want to end? Oftentimes, it's the weight of their anguish that outweighs their ability and resources to cope in beneficial ways. They get trapped and do not understand how to move onward with hope. They get overwhelmed and need a way of escape therefore they assert I want to die, believing that somehow death may provide them a bit of alleviation. Not everyone who pronounces or thinks I want to die takes steps to end his or her existence. Some regularly meditate on the thought as a means of coping, indulging in the pain, or venting their anger. Once we hear the words I want to die, may we also pay attention to what else the person is saying for instance: I have lost hope; this agony is overwhelming; I need help I do not know what to do; I wish this agony would end I am unable to go on like this any longer; I can't stand myself; I am depressed.

Death, divorce, or some other life- altering event (like loss of employment) can activate extreme, long-lasting feelings. Do you find that particular times of the year are a lot more tough than others? What loss did you endure?
