How Can You Kill Yourself Without Pain?

QUESTION: How Can You Kill Yourself Without Pain?

ANSWER:

I am so sorry you are asking the question, “How can you kill yourself without pain?” That is a tragic question. It is also a question with many answers, but most of them are not good answers.

The pain that you are experiencing must be very intense. The pain of depression is the worst kind of pain—there is very little escape and there seems to be no way out.

There is an answer and a way out. There are other ways to deal with your depression.

• Picture Yourself Without Pain - Do you remember a time in your life when you had no pain? Not just free from this emotional pain you have now, but no pain at all? Do you remember a time with no physical pain and no emotional pain? That seems to be how most people live, without pain. So let me ask you, did you expect to live out the rest of your life with no pain at all?
  
  Of course not, you knew there would be pain, but not this bad. The pain you are in right now is very bad. It is worse than you expected probably, but there is an answer. There is a solution.
  
  You actually already know it, you heard it long ago, you may have gotten frustrated and gave up on it, but it is a real solution.
  
  
• Concentrate on God’s Love - God loves you and cares about what happens to you. It may not seem that way, because of all the pain you are in, but God didn’t intend for you to be in this much pain. The Bible is full of stories that show how much God loves us and wants to rescue us. The Bible tells us that God hurts when we hurt. That is true. He doesn’t want to see you hurting. He considers you a child of His and He wants you to be healed of your pain—to be free from pain.
