I’ve been so unstable these past few months and I can’t hold myself together anymore. Everything I’ve been straining to hold in for the past month has spilled out. I can’t contain my thoughts about killing myself; they have spilled over into my dreams, when I’m asleep I die, over and over again, I take my own life in a myriad of ways. I am never sorry.


But then I awake and the ******* ******* is still there, the ***** are still there. I’ve taken to carrying them around with me, getting more comfortable with their presence, with the idea of not hurting any longer.


I failed to maintain the only relationship where another person cared about me even the tiniest fraction. And that person got paid for it, and even so, even getting $90 an hour; it wasn’t enough to continue to put up with me, to feign caring. She promised she would never leave me, promised it would all be okay, but it isn’t and I am alone and absolutely destroyed.


I no longer have hope that I can get better. I just want to let go of this life.

Please call someone locally to get help. Please don't do anything drastic. Call your doctor or pdoc if you don't currently have t. I wonder would it help to adjust your medication? Sending you hugs

You don't have to be alone and life could be better. Your former t doesn't have that much power over you

You have children. Don't they count as people who care about you? I would guess that their world revolves around you and they would be devastated if anything happened to you. Can you hang on for them, let their love for you stand in for now until you can love yourself again?

I don't have children. I just babysit. They are not mine.

Kids tend to love everyone who takes care of them and is in their world. I am sure they care about you and would be sad to lose your presence in their life.
Thanks for this!

I am sorry that you are having these suicidal thoughts. The important thing is that they are just thoughts and you are in charge of what you do so they cannot make you do anything. How about medication would having that looked at or strengthened be helpful? The Dr. would be able to advise about that.

How about therapy? A good therapist can give you good skills for dealing with depression. CBT is very good as is acceptance and commitment therapy, which I use. It is based on research, which shows that, trying to get rid of thoughts only makes them worse, and come back more. It says that we should accept them say to ourselves, we are experiencing them and just watch them as they go out of our minds. And we keep doing that till they stop. which they always do, while at the same time getting on with the business of the day. Keeping your mind busy doing things, especially enjoyable ones will distract from these thoughts.

There is Nami the organization for the mentally ill and you can Google them contact them to find out what courses they have in your area. They do run peer to peer support groups which would give you new friends. And fellow sufferers make the best ones and would care about you. I hope and pray all of this will get better for you soon. Have a really great day. God bless and best wishes from your friend Francis

Hey, I never thought hope was so important till I didn't have any. It is so hard to find anything to hold on to but I found I would force myself to look outside and count 3 things, sometimes it was the sun or rain or clouds or whatever, but something I could be thankful for ... it seemed pointless at the time but somehow that did help my mind focus on something real. I have hope for you and that is the hope I have to hold on to for me tonight. Stay strong, you are not alone ... Julie
