So I've been very suicidal these past few weeks and I just dont know what to do with myself anymore. I'm working at Starbucks and my wife and I just found out that we arent going to be able to live at our current apt anymore because they are getting rid of her SSI so theres so much stuff happening all at once and I'm just done. I dont have a care in the world and have seriously thought about putting myself in the hospital for outpatient but if I do that I'm risking other people knowing whats happening to me and I'm also risking losing my job and I dont want to do that either..I've been thinking and doing all the wrong things and I just want to sleep forever.....I'm done with life.
Any advice??

Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.
I'm so sorry life is overwhelming at the moment. My advice would be to set your pride aside for a bit and reach out for the help you need. When one makes themselves totally real but vulnerable it takes a pretty big a$$ to kick 'em when they're down. It also gives the opportunity for everyday angels to do their magic.
Hang in there!!
Nothing is worth taking your life for, and I mean nothing! I am glad you are on here with us. Have you contacted a crisis line?
If I was in your situation, I would try to get into see your pdoc ASAP. If that is not feasible, then going outpatient is another option, and no one has to know unless you tell them. First, try to arrange to get the time of work, and make up some BS reason. It is none of their business! You can always seek a generic medical note from any treating doctor.
Your health and wellbeing need to be your first priority.
Good luck
Unfortunately we do go through trying times but they won't last forever.. I've found during some of the most difficult and painful times of my life that another door always opens.. Please hang on to that for now...
Get in to see your doc asap.. He/she can write a note to your work if you need some time off
He can also refer you to a social worker if you need some help for housing..
Great big hug of comfort and support for you..xo
