Hi. I posted a thread in the counseling section where i asked a few questions about this, but it occurred to me to maybe submit this as a prayer request as well.

I am a 35 year old woman, I am not a christian, I don't really believe in Jesus or the bible, and I'm not sure I believe in god- so I guess it may be odd that I'm asking for prayer on a Christian forum. I thought it would not do any harm.

I am struggling right now with feelings of wanting to commit suicide or hurt myself. I won't get into all the reasons why, but I am tempted to hang myself- I live alone- so no one would find me until it was too late. When I was at my most depressed, I recently stumbled across not one but two articles describing how quick and painless hanging is, and I want a painless death and then peace. Which is what I think I would get. But there is still a little part of me that is afraid I might go to hell. I have that fear, probably because I was raised Catholic and the concept of hell was really engrained in us.

I had the noose around my neck yesterday but a phone call interrupted me. Now I am fighting those feelings, but they are still there. I keep thinking it would be peaceful and then easy and then nothingness.

But I thought maybe prayer would help, or at least couldn't hurt. Please pray for me.

I am praying for you now. without a doubt, if you have not excepted Jesus Christ as your Savior, you Will go to hell instantly. God loves you and Jesus his son loves you, history itself has proven them real. i am praying for the Lord to give you enough faith to call on him and receive him into your heart. Please, do not harm yourself in anyway. feel free to pm me, i will continue to pray for you.
 
We also have chat on here, just tell me when to meet you there and we will talk as long as you want to. That phone call you received was God's way of keeping you from making a mistake for all eternity. christians love others with the love of Christ, i and the others here love you, and will be your friend if you will give us the chance. praying for you.

I too have struggled with a bit of depression. But mine is a bit different. I started seeking the Lord about 3 years ago. And since then, I can't seem to get enough of learning about Him. I feel as though I am not learning of Him fast enough. If you give Him a chance, I'm sure He will do the same for you. I am hungry for Him. Just hang in there. You have took the first step. You are seeking the truth! I know it is the truth, and it is a process. So, please just give it time and He will teach you. Just imagine spending all eternity in heaven with our creator that loves us more than anyone here on this earth. Now, that would be perfect peace! Please keep asking questions, and people here at TJ will be there for support and help while the Lord is leading and guiding and directing your paths!

See a doctor asap. Often this type pf depression is a chemical imbalance in the brain and can be treated.
Find a Pastor at a Bible believing church and get some counseling. This service is free, most Pastor's have a great deal of training and experience in helping folks.
As Jesus to reveal Himself to you. Humans were created for fellowship with God,He is real, His love and power are overwhelming and your life will never be complete without Him.
Indeed the source of so many peoples problems is this;
they have an emptiness, a leanness in their soul and the are constantly looking for something to fill that void. Some choose drugs, some sex, some money, some are thrill seekers, any combination of the above, etc. They go after that which they feel can make them happy but a few moments after they get it they are empty again. What they are missing is God and only He can make them whole.
I will be praying for you my friend.
Best wishes,
your new friend Larry.
