My two kids are grown, one is married and the other is in his last year of college - so I really don't feel like I am needed anymore. Just been feeling very down the past couple of months and I can't seem to shake the idea that suicide is an option.
Do you ever reach out to your husband and tell him that he is needed? Suicide is NEVER AN OPTION! Try to focus on the goodness in you that you own as a statement about how much you are still needed. I think you might try thinking about how much YOU NEED YOU, especially now. I have been where you are and I learned to say tomorrow is waiting for you while you wait for yourself. I think you deserve you more than you think. I welcome a response!
