Jen .. you are a newcomer to DS. do not harm yourself. Take some time to look around and post some things in the depression group. Get 'going' here and you will learn how to cope .. make friends, and get treatment.
Do not harm yourself. If you think you might, call 911. You have many, many other options. You have another thread going and got some replies. Ignore anything that is not helpful, but talk to people who are.
Harming yourself is not necessary. You can have a better life. Private message me if you need help using DS. There are many people here who will help you.

hi jen. you sound like you are feelingat your lowest right now.

but please, don't do anything to harm yourself.

we've all felt like that at some point. life is hard, especially for sensitive souls.

i often pictured myself not here and planned how my children would be taken care of. it's a really dark place to be, and i hope you can find some light.

what's your situation?
