Hi Sarah ,

I think your question is one that many, if not most of us, with mental health issues ask ourselves. I am certainly in that place right now.

I think it depends on the person, some of us are sicker than others. Some of us, even though we are very sick, will find the help we need that will make life livable. Some of us will try our very best and that will not happen. I think it's a very individual thing. Only you can answer the question: "Have I really tried my best at all my available options? Am I ready to say that life is not worth living even though there may be hope, a "cure" of some kind in the future, that makes my quality of life worth living?" I think these decisions can only be answered on an individual basis, and there is no one right answer for anyone.
