I hate working so much. It's torture. I've applied for disability
but they are dragging their feet, got me set up to see the
disability psychiatrist in three weeks, it's been almost a year
that I've been waiting, and every day I have to go to work is
HELL.

I have to pretend to the psychiatrist that I want to work.
Otherwise they will turn me down for sure, which they probably
will do anyway. All I can think about is suicide, every day I sit
at work and think about the only way out of this hell. If I get
turned down for disability I'm pretty sure I will kill myself.

Sorry to hear about the bs that you endure on a daily basis. I actually don't mind my work, it's the feeling of being fubar'd that throws me off. If only the government gave out money for disability as freely as corporate welfare or " bail outs", I'm sure you could use a bail out right about now. Hopefully it works out for you.

Heretic...

Don't forget your dreams. Whatever you want to do, live for that. Maybe you might need a change of environment, maybe a new belief system. Just dream it up and go for it. If you think you want to die anyways, what do you have to lose? I'd try, try, try my hardest to make something happen...like something superfierce, SUPERBAD....before I went out. I mean, something good (NOT POSTAL)...

Sometimes all we have are our daydreams...why can't they be real? There has to be something that would make you happy. Go for it! You will get there.
