How can I stop thoughts of dying?

I don’t want to kill myself, but I cant stop thinking that it is an option.. and basically wishing I would die, but not cause it myself. I’m not sure if “suicidal” is the correct word…I wouldn’t do it, I don’t agree with it at all, and I dont have it in me. Lately it seems like the only way out. I don’t want to slit my wrists, but I literally sit in my car when we are driving and hope there is a bad accident where I die, but the other people are okay. I just want everything to be over, without being the one responsible for ending it. It would really work out for the best… no one would feel guilty, and it would get rid of a lot of problems for the people around me. Death seems like the only solution to my problems which seem to be ever-compounding. Yes I am aware death is a permanent solution to all temporary problems and I am aware of how rediculous it is that I am even thinking this way. That is why I ask you, random strangers on the internet: How do I change my thinking (please nothing religious)?

Well i’ve been in a few life or death situations. A few were just accidents (health issues, accidently walking into traffic) some were on purpose (when I was younger I was very depressed and at one point suisidal). And ya know what I learned each time somthing happened? I really didn’t want to die. That split secound when you feel like its ganna end it’s like WOW, rewind. I rember feeling like everything that could go wrong, did. I rember thinking it’s just not worth it anymore. Heck there were even times I sat there crying and begged god to do watever it took to take me. But in the end as hard as it is you have to appreciate what you have and relize it does get better. That was just a short stage of my life, and now I relize how needed I really am. I went from being a horrible depressed, abused, teased, worthless 12 yearold girl into a beautiful, happy, expressful 15 yearold who the world needs. I have family and friends who need me, and a wonderful boyfriend who’d throw his life down in a secound for me and you will to one day. You just gatta rember, the dark only makes the light shine brighter. Even if things suck now at somepoint your ganna be glad you didn’t die at 16.
