In some ways I am the cause of my present distress. Two nights ago I was following a thread on a different forum. I think I may have witnessed through a forum a successful suicide. Now I am worrying about her and it is effecting my mood. For some reason I keep going back to see what other people have posted. I am actually pulling myself down. Maybe because my life is so dull and lifeless anymore, I do this to get myself to feel something and get outside of myself. What a miserable life I have now. Most of my days anymore are watching TV and posting on the forums. Sometimes I will go days in the same clothes not caring about anything. I am pathetic.

You are not pathetic, you are depressed. You are a kind, caring person, and because of that it's understandable to be upset by and worried about the post you read. We're all grateful for your presence at this forum. I'm sorry but I can't remember whether you've mentioned having a T or not, but if you do, maybe it would be worth talking to them about this? Take care of you, you deserve to be happy and to do whatever it takes to get out of this slump.

Justfloating is right--YOU ARE NOT PATHETIC!!!

Be gentle with yourself.

Just found out the woman is alive. She did not say much, but I think she is in a hospital. Now if I can get myself out of this rut I will be okay. I do have a therapist and a psychiatrist. Think they are getting tired of trying to pull me out of this slump. Thanks

I'm glad she's ok.

And if she wasn't that would NOT have made you pathetic. I hope you can understand, your value does not depend on otheres decisions, it depends on your own.
