Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
Today is the first day in 2 weeks that I've seriously considered killing myself again. I was hospitalized a few weeks ago for suicidal thoughts. I don't want to be hospitalized again, but I don't know what to do.
Im in a mood where I just feel tired and done but I've got a long week ahead of me before the weekend. And people looking up to me to succeed. Ending things seems to be the best alternative :'( :(
Suicide might seem like an option, but it doesn't have to be one. You could try to just do nothing for a while. I know that sounds boring, but it's also an option. I often use the 'just do nothing' option as a serious one. For me doing nothing is a way to slow down my thinking. It's not really fun, but it's still a better option than suicide.
I know the 'just do nothing' option isn't always possible. Life still goes on all around us, that we can't control.
I feel a bit guilty giving my 2 cents. I've made a few feeble attempts to kill myself, so I do understand when that horrible feeling sets in. I need to do something. But what? No answers come to mind, that's when I just sit quietly and do nothing. Any option is better than the suicide option.
Please take care.
