My primary safety plan is to talk to my wife about what I am thinking.... ideation.... and strong desire to NOT be here.......

So, when my wife sets me off (dysfunctional) - to the point of very seriously wanting to just go
Possible trigger:
Who can you talk to?

To add to the mess, this weekend is my nieces wedding and I simply cannot be locked up in the looney bin. This needs to be about HER, not me.

So, what would you do?

Do you have a close friend or therapist you could call? Even the suicide hotline might be a good choice. I'm sorry you are suffering.

You can also rant here or even PM me

But I'm "useless" so can only listen really

I find myself in a similar dilemma at times, minus the niece...

Also the pills would be unlikely to have the desired effect of vacating this planet (IMO) which is a strong deterrent for me...

Love to you

Hi IDM,

Well you can talk to us
But it sounds like maybe the safety plan might need some revision??
As in either talk to your wife or talk to ............ being first on the list??
And in there........talk to your T, your pdoc, an out of hours number if your T or pdoc have one, a helpline..........or us??
And maybe the things down your list after talking to someone, if you can't do that for any reason, could be strengthened a bit?? As in, finding more or more effective things??
Because sometimes it can be hard to talk anyway can't it??

And your niece's wedding.........I would say that your focus on her is so thoughtful, but how you're feeling matters just as much (actually more!!) so if you need extra help in the lead up, if you can't make it for any reason...........well now is a perfect time to put your well-being first!!



Alison

Talk to us. We are here for you. But also if you need to call a hotline. Also, is there another friend (in real life) you can trust and confide in? Hang in there with us.

IDM, it sounds to me like you and your therapist need to come up with a better safety plan.
