Suicide attempt My school participated in a long psychology research when I was in high school. Students were required to fill in an anonymous psychology assessment at the end of every school year. There was a question in the assessment that impressed me the most, "Have you ever considered committing suicide over the last year? Please rate on a scale of 1-7." When I just got into high school, I thought the question was stupid, as I had never imagined I would be a person who would commit suicide. However, when I became older, when my coursework started to become more challenging, when I understood this world better, my rating to that question also increased significantly. I gave a rating of 6 in my last year in high school. There was an instance that I really wanted to kill myself. I quietly went to a desolate place, feeling extremely lonely, desperate, helpless and sorrowful. I had the urge to cry, but I could not. I stared blankly to the ground, thinking if there were any meanings to live in this world. However, I was weak and cowardly. I was fearful of heights. This fear had saved my life...
