Need help translating
Okay so it’s a very wide meme across the US to say you want to kill yourself. While it’s actually true in my case, and I do, I’d like to learn how to say this in Japanese without alarming anyone. Like “I failed my math exam time to die”

Re:Need help translating
Hello! Since you're directly referring to the English "I want to die" meme, they also have this meme in Japan! It started on a Japanese forum.

It is 死にたい (shinitai). You can also say 死にたいです (shinitai desu) to be a little more formal about it. Or if you want to soften it (not make it seem so literal), you can say ちょっと死にたいよ (chotto shinitai yo). Hope that helps!
