I just spent half an hour with a bag on my head now I have head ace my cheeks feel warm and so does my chest how long will this last???

I just spent the last half an hour with a bag over my head but I decided to stop because someone on here asked me to but know my I have a headache i feel light header my chest feels heavy my face and chest feel warm especially my face and my throat feels raw though that could be from yelling earlier. Anyways my question is how long will this last??? These feelings of my face being warm and chest heavy and that??? I am asthmatic could this of triggers my asthma???

Sorry if no one has the awnser I am just curious and will it have futur conceqenses???

I'm scared because I think I'll probably try more often now because that was the first time I tried for more than a minute or 2 I'm scared I'll succeed next time. Though I guess that wouldn't be to bad but still part of me doesn't want to die

That is so great to hear about that concert and all the fun you had.  And even better that you enjoyed the whole concert through and through.  Sounds like you were able to get away from it all for three whole hours.  It would be great if you could have fun like that more often.  The reason I asked you to tell me two good things that happened to you is because if you can do that every day.. tell yourself two or three good things that made you feel happy each day, then you will start to see things differently.  Now you need to really focus on 2 or 3 GOOD things and not something like 'I didn't get yelled at'; it has to be POSITIVE.  They can be simple things like 'I snuggled with my dog today'.   Anyway, if you can do this every single day, you will start to train yourself to focus on the positive and you will feel better and happier.  It will not change anything over night so you need to be patient.  But try it.  On that note... tell me 2 good things that happened to you today.  (=

I know it sounds hokey, but it does work.

Two great things that happened to me today:
1. I woke up this morning and when I peeked out my window snow was falling down in the darkness.
2. My girlfriend made me laugh by telling me a hilarious story about toilets in Tibet.

ps. Why are you afraid of the counseller telling your parents?  Of course, I understand if you wanted them to know you would tell them, but how do you think they would react?  Is if possible they would be helpful?

Sorry I didn't message you back sooner

Hmm well nothing good has happened today so I'll go back to last night. Last night I went to a concert with the one pastor, 2 kids from school and one of my sisters. It was AWSOME the most fun I have had in a very very long time. And it actualy lasted longer than 5 minutes it lasted like 3 hours. When the first band played I Uist sat up in my seat the bottom row of the nose bleeds section. I just sat in my seat because I didn't feel like going down and standing. But when I saw how much fun everyone was having I decided I was going to go down for the next band wich was the main band. It was awsome because I started in the back row at the front were everyone stands and jumps but then got pushed to the front row lol. Then I looked up at screen were they show everyhing happening so people in the nose bleeds can see and I was like "look it's my head" to my sister because my head was on the screen.
At the concert they had a part were you could write a note to God and confess something that you had been keeping to your self and just let him fully take over so I wrote I'm going to try my hardest to mever attempt again and I'm going to try and never think of attempting again. I also wrote I'm going to try my hardest to use all the resources I have been given to be happy again

That's what stopes menfrom attempting 20 minutes ago because I so badly wanted to grad the bag at the end of my bed but I thought back on last night and what I wrote down and promised myself I'm going to try my hardest to stick to what I wrote down last night.

Also on Wednesday I got called down to the guidance because my youth pastor told a councilor about ny attempts so now I have to talk to her. Anyways the councilor said if I tell her I'm thinking of attempting she has to tell my parents so I had to strait out lie to her. So I also used the fact that if I were to attempt today and she figured out she would tell my parents.

Mostly it was what I wrote last night though.

I'm not mad at my youth pastor for telling her because when my youth pastor asked me if it was alright for her to look around and find me some professional help I told her it was ok. So I am glad she did it just upsets me that I have to lie to the counselor but I guess I can at least get help with the just feeling down part. I guess that would help being that it's feeling down that males Mensa t to kill myself. So I guess it should still help a lot I hope anyways.

I'm just really scared when I talk to her that I'll say something and shell have to tell my parents. :(

I am so sorry you are going through this Bran, and I don't know what advice I can give.  It sounds like you have a lot of trust in your pastor and that he has helped you.  Keep visiting him and be honest.  Best wishes to you.  Can you tell me one thing about your day today... one GOOD that happened to you?  Also tell me one thing that brings joy into your life?

Ya I am talking to a pastor, my youth pastor and my pastor well my pastor knows I haven't really talked to him though my youth pastor did that for me. I'm not good I guess I want to say I'm alright but I would be lieing. I feel down all the time and when I am finally having a good time it never lasts any longer than 5 minutes. It's so annoying!!!! I'm always down and a lot of the time it's for no reason then I start thinking if all my "flaws" I HATE it!!!! Like I said I'm talking to a few people but I want them to know that I really need help right now I can't take it anymore but I'm not sure they realize I want and need help NOW. I can't blame that for them. But I really just want to sit down in person and talk to them one on one it would be cool if I could talk to all 3 of them at once but I'm not sure if that can happen. I really want to tell them everything and I want them to help me do something to get better. Like I'm not sure if I need to maybe move out for a little bit so I can be in a better environment but I'm only 16 so I can't live alone. Well I could but I don't want to pay that intact I can't pay that. I've been thinking if I do move temporarily I was thinking my youth pastor and pastors house might be a good place but I don't know. It's just to stressful here everyday my parents scream and yell. Mostly yell but latly more and more screaming so ya. I just feel that if u stay in this house I'm going to end up killing myself if I stay in this house so I want to move so I don't kill myself but I don't want to strait out ask my youth pastor. I dint want to move to my dads and Auntie mommy though because they live in the other side of the country and I don't want to leave people like my pastors and youth pastor behind they are what have kept me alive. I don't know I really just want them to know how serious this is getting and that it's getting worse everyday!!!! I don't what to do I'm really qote scared and confused

I sent you a private message, Bran. Please listen to the part of you that doesn't want to die. Please call Karen or your Auntie Mommy. This is not something you can handle alone and you need help NOW. Did  you check the Samaritan numbers? If so call them. If you get an urge to try this again, before Karen or someone can help you connect with a professional therapist, call 911 and ask to be taken to an emergency room. Listen to the part of you that doesn't want to die...to me...to the God you love and believe in. Do NOT hurt yourself. Reach out and get the help you need. "Sky"
