I really am starting to hate every moment. I used to pride myself on my independence and now I hate it and I miss him. I miss him loving having a girl to take care of.

It's Saturday night. I worked 12 hours, I'm tired. My friends are out downtown. I don't want go downtown, I don't want to drive, I don't trust myself to keep myself from having a few drinks and I have a headlight out and don't want to risk driving. I'd go to their home but just don't really wantto go downtown to the bars. It makes my depression worse to drink too. And I really don't want to be around a bunch of drunk people sober. Not my cup of tea. I love my friends I just don't want to do what they're doing tonight.

So, I'm at home. Thinking about my ex, imagining what he's doing. I'm sure he's not sitting at home. I miss him and I hate my life. I think I want to move closer to family.

Having a really bad night....

So Sorry Brooklynn. I have had dreadful thoughts and wish I didn't exist. I don't want to be gone so to speak because I could not do that to my family or myself....I feel your pain and I am right there with you in so many ways....

I think it is best to have family to lean on...If you can move closer I think it is a good idea and I think the sooner the better... You have to take care of yourself...

I have been wrestling with suicide thoughts for over a year

I did not do it

My friends hearing me vent kept me alive moment by moment

I reach crisis point at certain times of the year and during stressful transitions

and now life is so good again....I am feeling happiness

Hold on....get through each day....and life will get better

What I do is dance, seriously I just turn the music up and dance. I work long hours like you and when the times get tough, I turn on all types of music and let it rip. I dance doing dishes, laundry, vacuuming. It definitely helps as crazy as it is. Plus my moves are getting better. It also takes my mind off the emotion.

I would often wish she had just killed me and I died happy than be put through so much agonizing torture

Or if she had died...the grief would have had closure
and I could carry love in my heart

Oh well! Here we are and life has to go on

and eventually it does get better

Maybe thats what you need to do is move closer to your family..family support is always good..I dont want to tell my family whats going on..im embarrased i let someone make me feel this way and treat me this way.
