why don't you put your energies into taking care of your kids and think of what they would go through, were you to kill yourself.....they were brought into life, not by choice, so they need someone to stick around and care for them. Sometimes if you focus on the right things to fight for, it makes the fight easier.

Please don't kill yourself. Your children would have no one. Your first priority is to put your children first and make healthy choices.

Go to counseling if you can. It can be very helpful. Listen to music after the kids go to bed.
Start a journal. Write your feelings on paper. Try to get out of the house where there are other
adults. Go without kids if you can. If you can't then join a play group, library activities for kids,
Etc. You can have a better life. It may take time but your children need you. So don't kill
yourself.

Hey, I'm so sorry about your friend and your break-up. If you tried to kill yourself, I just wanted to suggest going to the hospital if you need medical attention or anything. Do you have any family that could help you right now so that you can focus on yourself?

Killing yourself is a permanent answer to a temporary problem. It may seem unbearable right now, but you will get over it and will make new friends. Pray to God for the strength to get through this storm. He will provide you with His grace which is more than sufficient. You should also seek professional help ASAP. Please continue to post in this forum. We're hear to help each other stay strong. I'm praying for you.
