Simply bizarre.

My name is Jerry Romero, and I am 23 years old. If you have found this journal, it is through your own actions. I will not comment on other entries in an attempt to make friends. I am leaving this in the hands of Fate and no-one else. This journal was created solely for the purpose of providing one last lifeline in a vast sea of hopelessness.

On January 13th, I am going to kill myself.


I am going to be posting daily about my fears, anxieties, and state of mind. If, in the month I have allotted, someone shows that they truly care, I will not take my life. This may seem odd to some people. Hell, it even seems odd to me. But even though I do not want to live, I need to know if someone can care. If someone could reach across the void of chance and make contact, I will consider it a sign that someone (God, Allah, anyone) does not want me to die. More there, if you feel like following the link.

:argh:

I agree with the comments that say he's just an attention whore. If he really wanted to die, he would just put a bullet in his head and get it overwith. Not go onto the internet of all places and ask for sympathy from strangers.

I'm sorry but this an an obvious cry for attention, I'm not saying i agree with the people's comments, because some were just mean. But it is very obvious that this person just wants attention, if he really wanted to do it he wouldn't have told the whole world and ask if anyone cares, he knows that someone out there will be over sympathetic and give him the attention he wants. And Oneworld, that is a completely idiotic thing to do, lets go flame some flamers :rolleyes: if you had any sense of intelligence you would know that this person wants attention, as do most of the rest of the people who post there. Leave them to themselves.

It's been said that people of often talk about commiting suicide rarely go through with it. It's the people who don't say anything that's the scariest because you have no clue until they go through with it. Granted, I'm not saying not to take this guy seriously as we don't know exactly what's going on with him.

Suicide and depression should NEVER be taken lightly.

I know a family who found their father after he had put a shotgun in his mouth...

He was depressed, on pills, had previously threatened. But the family never forced one another to directly talk about it. End result, guys life didn't change, and he eventually commited suicide.

This guy should get off the computer and talk to a real person.

Those with something nasty to say should do the world a favour and shoot themselves.

If this guy is kidding, he should be shot.

Nuff said.

No, of course not, but this guy is asking for visits, which would suggest hes wants attention, and is preying on good-natured people

the majority of people who say stupid and controversial stuff in school, no its not because they are really stupid, its because they want attention. IE:
Person 1- The moon landing so cool!
Person 2- Yea, man, i wish i landed on the moon.
Person 3- The moon landing is fake
Person 1- Your such a dumb***!
Person 2- i know, you looser

This is just an example (nothing really to do with the moon landing, although i personally think its real, but thats beside the point ;) ) of someone saying something controversial
just to get attention. its negative attention, but hey, its still attention. One person in my grade even admitted to doing it over the previous years.

i take suicide very seriously, but a real "friend" wouldnt visit his journal, they would get his information and get him some help. Has anyone done this?

Personally, i do think he might be depressed, who knows, but i think hes also horrible for preying on people's humanity

Most suicide attempts are not really suicide attempts, they are cries for attention from someone who usually has a serious mental problem.

as another poster mentioned, if you really want to die, it's very easy to do it quickly and silently.

I can only hope this person gets the (medical) attention he needs quickly. I'm no doctor, but I have no doubt that whatever the response to his thread, his depression will not go away.

This journal has been deleted. If you are _countdown, you have a period of 30 days from the deletion time to undelete the journal. After 30 days we will delete all content permanently from our servers. :10bux: says the LJ people killed it. :ninja:

LiveJournal probably closed it due to increase in bandwidth consumption, because before this, nobody even wanted to go there.

Glickman
01-07-2005, 11:32 PM
looks like someone isnt gonna get his 10k views....


says that a new company is gonna pay for the site, so your probably right, went over bandwith and cant pay

but now that account is banned, other people will do the same, except noone will bother to glance, thus live journal loosing money

ahh the cycle that is the internet

Are you kidding me? Bandwidth? As SUPERLAME (wow, still finding censored words I didn't know about) as LJ may be, they wouldn't have shut cown _countdown due to bandwidth. They operate approximately eighteen gajillion active accounts, and although servers may be slow and/or down at times, they don't need to kill a popular one to save on bandwidth. They're really not a small time operation anymore.

He will prolly just say hes killing himself and everyone who wants or thinks it will be funny to see him do it(not me)will get their suicide, he will get his attention, then wait awhile and do the same thing a month later with a new name. Just my guess.

i agree with the klown. he prolly wont do it, and he just wants some beautifull girl to email him saying she loves him so much and that he shouldn't die, so he could actually get some kind of contact with a girl because he is such a nerdynerd. 1 day left. :headbang:

granted he does need help because hes an idiot, no offense but if your the "praying type" why would you put your name as pureevil? again i mean no offense by it, im just curious
