My Suicide Attempt

[Tinyflame]

Hi Jade, I tried twice, virtually consecutively- obviously 'failed'- and never told anyone for 25 years, and then only once because I had to, to be honest.

There isn't any shame in hitting a low point, but there is a lot of ignorance and misunderstanding out there. I suspect you will forgive it, because I've also found that people who've struggled with SI are oftentimes the kindest people you'd meet, and internalize what sometimes shouldn't be.

Don't let your friend's reaction throw you off- you should celebrate = one whole year more you were here! :tup: And that's great!
(.. But I would choose new friends :rolleyes:).

First off Joob, congrats on leaving; most people can't, or won't leave an abusive relationship because it 'sustained' them and 'comforted' them in a strange way. It was apart of their routine, and they stay with it for more reasons that I can count. I am a product of that kind of relationship with my parents, and I've seen it get pretty darn ugly quick with them so.much kudos to you for that. You DEFINITELY don't have the right to put yourself through that kind of situation where you're giving you're all to someone and they pay it back by sleeping around on you.....

Secondly It helped me a great deal.....I've been thinking about suicide more than twice a week, and I'm still trying to fight it, and stay alive....I feel that I'm a lump at times, that just can't seem to do anything right....but you've really brought me around and are really making it stick to me that I should stick it out....It's hard because I KNOW that I'm at my "Rock Bottom" as I type this, trying to fight my way out....I feel as if they just don't care about anything but themselves, and If I died, it'd only be an expense they'd have to cover.....:unsure:

But it's great how well it all turned out for you though....your fiancee', returning to work.....you really pulled it together in a pinch.....yea, so are you fulfilled? Happy? You sound Good Joob!! :) I'm gonna get there....Yea, I am.
