It's been a month since our divorce was final. After 9 years together, 4 years of marriage, 2 kids, and a nice house. All gone... I lost my good job because of this. I'm thinking of hanging myself on xmas. I'm still very in love with my ex, she won't talk to me, text me, and I hardly see my kids. She says I making her life harder, well lets see how they get along without me. It's been a year since we've been separated and I still can't get over her, meanwhile she's going out every weekend with her girlfriends probably meeting other guys already. I just want to die.

Can you identify these rom-coms from just a screenshot from the middle of the films? This is a multiple choice quiz so even if you're not entirely sure you can always take a guess and at least have a 25% chance of getting it right anyway, so why not have a go?! https://www.buzzfeed.com/alysaurus688/rom-com-screenshot-trivia-quiz


That being said, hanging yourself at anytime is a bad idea. The holidays are tough, but in one day, Christmas will be over, then a week later, New Years is over. That's it. Suck it up for ONE week. Meanwhile make an appt with a therapist. They will make time for you right away, if you are open with how bad you are feeling.
So pull up your big boy panties and see if mum or dad are around for Christmas. Unless you actually think you're a bad enough person to need to be permanently removed from your children's lives, don't do this.
Just understand: you're hoping if you kill yourself your kids will blame mum. That won't happen. Mum will have free rein to tell the story of who you were without anyone to challenge her view. And she'll say you were a nutcase, and here's the proof. You killed yourself.
Killing yourself is not a good form of revenge. It's actually pretty suck.
