You are told "don't do it! you have so much to offer!"

"Death is not what you really want ... (adlib their motion of what you want)"

So - in essence - you are basically told you don't know what it is you are feeling n you need to stop feeling it.

Translation to the person feeling it: "keep your feelings to yourself, they are too scary, I can't deal with them so you need to accept what I can handle"

End result: person feeling this way - never says a thing n just sinks ever further into depression and feeling totally alone in how they feel, like nobody else has ever felt this.

I don't know if this feeling ever results in suicide. I do know it would be odd. I have absolutely zero interest in taking part in ending my life.

But...

Let someone come thru my door, weapon in hand n threaten to use it on me ... this girl would just stand there n let him (or her) use it

If I was out on a boat that capsized n we could not right it. Sure, I would go through the motions of treading water .. but when I got too tired to continue n when I started to feel exhaustion n dehydration overtake me - I would welcome the knowledge of what is to come.

If I were diagnosed with a terminal illness - I would not fight it off.

But...I will not actively put a weapon in hand or create a dangerous situation on which to cause my demise.

I simply know - death would be better. Period. So I long for it. The same as many long for a million dollars yet refuse to rob a bank.
I was very open and honest about these thoughts with therapists. The last one I went to took what I said to a higher level than it was, and I am not going back to any more therapists as a result.
