It sounds like BS. They don't know what you've been through. It's been like this for so long and it REALLY can't get better. People tell you they went through it too but they didn't. Not like you are. They couldn't have. Sound about right? It's not. I'm not going to tell you "it'll be ok." You won't believe me and it will undermine your struggle. You're suffering now and it is terrible, but seek help and support. Get through the worst moments and do that each day. Start talking to a pro who can give you a plan and follow it. You want the pain to stop and they can help. It will be hard. Maybe the hardest thing you'll ever do. But you aren't a quitter. Not this time, not when it matters. You're going to do the work and find a way out that isn't suicide. You may never be totally blissful but you will be happy again. If you do the work and put in the time you'll find meaning and something to make everyday worth it. It's probably there right now and you can't see it. Just hold on.
There was a time I would have needed to read that and I'm not totally out of it yet but none the less thank you. Someone worse off than I will read this and it may help them.
I agree - you cannot tell anyone it will be ok because you don't know that it will be ok. I have personally known (friend or relative) five people to commit suicide. One was a young relative who would have taken it back for sure because she had taken LSD and freaked out. The biggest thing to know, from my experience with the other 4, is that they all thought that we all would be better off without them here. That is not true. Suicide is something you cannot take back and the hearts of those you left behind are forever broken. You may feel like you are not important, but you need that perspective. Here's my advice if you are feeling that way - call the free suicide hotline or the text line and start to talk about it asap. Get a good therapist. Start writing. If you have an addiction problem (which accounts for the other 4), get help asap. Tell people that you are getting help and you are trying to get better. Make the hard decisions and stick with them.
And just one more point - if the people around you do seem to not care, there are plenty o' fish in the sea (as they say with significant others). There are people who either do or will care and you need to start to find/surround yourself with those people.
Not to be lame, but this is a great site. People are always supporting each other and giving thumbs up for replies (or apologizing if they thought they offended someone). That is cool. Sometimes things like that make all the difference.
But seriously, why did you tagged me ?
