I give up. I have struggled with addiction. No soution. No help. My wife hates me. A good portion of my colleagues. I cant do this anymore. I want to thank you for all your help.

I feel relieved. I have taken the decision to end it. Its the right decision. I feel a lot better

Man, don't even think that way. You have a young son you live and care about.

Have you been drinking? Stop..... take a shower and rethink this through.

I understand that feeling of relief you have. I'm there. I get it. But the faces of my family come to my mind. Is it relief for them that their mother chose to off herself? What am I demonstrating to them? Is it always all or nothing? Please think rationally. We're not being rational when we are in the throes of our depression.

Depression is painful and sometimes we want a way out.
But give it a day or two. Do you have a counselor or someone
that you can talk to? Before you through your life away, think
about calling one of the crisis lines listed on this site.

Please don’t decide to end it after all. You can do this. We’re here for you. You have so much worth!

Alcohol addiction is DEADLY. Get into AA immediately.
