kv.....
I read with interest your post. I know that most of the time I am a bit in a fog resulting from my ongoing depression. It is difficult to concentrate on anything, let alone a suicide plan. But then there are times that I have had a burst of energy and my head is claer. It is at these times in the past aht I have gotten the most done or made some progress relative to a suicide plan. And, very often at those times there is a sense of peace as I know taht my pain will be over and in many ways a lot of people would be better off.
Like you, I hang on for one reason and one reason only.... my kids. Mine are still younger, and like you if they were older I don't know if I would have the resolve that I do now.
Hang in there.
