I thinking praying not to be born is better. I know it would kill my mom if something happened to me.

I'm new here so Hello everyone My sleep has gotten worse. Sleep aids use to work but now my brain still won't shut up. My brain has been forcing me to face my repressed memories and when that happens I get suicidal. So I stay up half the night trying to negotiate myself out of suicide and...

I have trouble sleeping at night because of the images of the sexual abuse plague my thoughts. Every night is the same. A voice says "face it!" My mind tells me to face everything I have repressed and that's when I allow the thoughts and the images of my sexual abuse to come. (I sleep better...
