I failed

Hi,


so I came across this sight when I googled how to cut deeper on my thighs. Not really ashamed of my self harm I do it for a reason, if you want to judge me go ahead but we aren't perfect. I suffer from anxiety, depression, panic attacks, insomnia, I self harm and I'm suicidal. I've just come out of hospital due to a failed suicide attempt and I'm not really sure what to feel now. I'm not sure if I feel more guilty for being alive but inflicting that pain on my family or if I feel angry at myself that it didn't work. I don't really know how to feel and I'm so desperate not to feel alone anymore

I get panic attacks too, can't sleep worth a fuck and consider killing myself almost everyday but I can't check out. If I did my kids would hate me, and I can't deal with the thought of that. Guess we're stuck here. Life does suck ass tho

There is no judgment here. We're here to help. I tried to OD on pills 8 years ago and after i came home, i saw tears and saddness in my grandparents faces. It was the worst feeling ive ever felt. I didnt want to do that to them again.

Desperate to not feel alone, if you want to not feel alone, you need to seek help, and that means you have to tell someone about your problems, and you have to be honest to that person. Its gonna be difficult, emotional, you might cry, but you wont be crying alone. You'll have whoever youre talking to right there. And you can always post here. Here to help in any way, big or small.
