Yes, please seek help if you're suicidal. This group is here for you. Life sucks some times, but there's some good in it too. Do you have family you can turn to? I hope so. I'm lucky to have wonderful parents and a close relationship with my grown son for love and support. I've felt suicidal for over half of my life. Not recently though. I'm lucky I found a med that's helped me not feel suicidal for like 3 yrs now! You can do it. You have more strength than you know. I'm sending you positive thoughts and prayers your way.

Sincerely,

Catherine

Yeah, we're marooned on this third rock from the sun together, and it's far from ideal, I hear ya, aspie. This world is not my home, I'm just passing through. There's got to be intelligent life in the universe somewhere, and maybe I'll meet it in the afterlife. Stay with us, ok? For you to have a chance to feel better first of all, but for all of the rest us, then, too. We need you and all of the help we can muster to get by.

Thanks everyone for ur support. Im just about holding on for now.

(((huggin you)))

Wow, you post brings back memories for me. I can feel that trapped, caged feeling and just wanting it to end even if that meant offing myself. Please believe me, you can get well and you can learn to deal with these uncomfortable feelings. You see, when we are uncomfortable, we just want to run, get away from those feelings. Unfortunately those feelings can be a part of life and we need to learn to sit with the feelings, feel our way through the pain and come out the other side. It is possible. For me it started with telling myself these feelings will pass. I eventually learned that yes indeed the feelings would pass. Then I found that little by little the panic and anxiety of feeling trapped started be less each time it happened. Why? Because I knew and trusted these feelings would pass. Just that little bit of hope kept me going and of course, support from DS.
My therapist use to tell me, when I felt like this do the opposite and really force yourself to do it. She called it opposite action. Don't feel like going out...go out. Don't feel like smiling, smile. Don't feel like getting out of bed, get out of bed. This worked for me. When these thoughts came, I would remember her saying opposite action. Somehow I was able to big down and get a bit of courage to do the opposite.

Big hug, and I hope your struggles end soon.
