Hello my friend -- I dont want you to think of suicide. Remember that it's a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Nothing is that serious. Everything changes, and NO ONE is worth killing yourself over. NOTHING is, either. No problem is that bad!! There is always someone who has it worse than we do. Sure, those are all cliche's, but they're all TRUE.
I worked all the Steps in AA more than once, and I have almost 19 years sober -- and I thank God for AA! I almost died myself from drinking. I came so close to death that it scares me. If I had drank any more, i sure wouldn't be here now. God MADE me call AA that day --- and I mean that literally. I tried to put the phone down that day when I picked it up to call AA -- but i could NOT put it down!!! Something kept me from putting the receiver down. SOMETHING MADE me dial that phone!!! It was NOT me!!!  There was an 'aura' around me, when I dialed that phone, and then a man answered -- and something MADE me said "I need help." And I got that help.
I tell you this because God saved you for a REASON. You are here because God has a plan for you -- and reason for you to be here. It's up to you to figure out what that reason is. Perhaps it's to help other people who are in the same "trouble" you're in, whether it's people with addiction problems, disabilities,, or depression. I don't know, but YOU might know.  You are here because He WANTS you here to DO something.
I'm sure you must have prayed to God while you were in that accident and/or recovering. Well, He answered you!! Now it's up to you to do something about it. 
Just my thoughts -- but you can't answer God by taking your life. Not after He answered your prayers.  God bless & please take care.
