You guys I don't think I can handle it anymore. The pain has gotten to great and no one here is helping me anymore at all. Therapy isn't helping and neither is the meds. The need to grab a gun and put a bullet through my head is back an worse than before. It isn't going away. I feel like I'm screaming as loud as I can and no one hears me or sees me. I'm distressed, depressed, bullied, in pain, and hopeless. No one wants to be around me anymore.

I am guessing that those who are leaving you and not standing by you side no matter what is making it worse. I know the feeling. It is like no matter how hard you try to tell them how you feel or whats going on all they want to do is try to fix you the way they know will work when for you it doesn't. They won't just listen so you no matter how hard you scream or cry for help. Things just feel like they are getting worse and you just feel that no one seems to care. You find yourself plotting and planing. Trying to figure out the best way and when so that you will succeeded. You can hear yourself talking to others but you feel like you are not even there. Have I touched even a little on how you are feeling?

That is exactly how I feel.

I have been there. The only thing that helped me was to keep talking about until one day someone actually listened to what I was saying and stopped trying to fix me. They just let me rant and rave for a while. When I was all done I still didn't feel much better and they didn't say anything they just looked at me and waited. I don't know when the light is going to come but I am willing to be that person for you if you would like. Just let me know when you want an answer in stead of a note saying that I read it.

I know how you feel. Therapy and meds don't help me either. It's like I don't know what to do anymore. I understand your frustration. It's like, you just feel so bad that what is the point in even living? You deserve to live though, for yourself. You deserve to live and try to be happy. It feels like there is no use though, I know. Maybe you could try a different therapist. I have heard that has helped some people. My old therapist ditched me after a long time and I have been extremely depressed since then. I feel so hurt by her. I've tried others but I don't like them. Now I have this one though that I will stick with but hardly get to see. Idk it just never helps but at least she's not a dumb ass. A lot of them are just idiots and don't care, but some are smart and do care. Anyway, I'm just rambling now lol. What about the people who are bullying you? Do you think there is anything you can do about those mean people?

Please don't harm yourself! It may not seem like it now, but things do change. I'm often suicidal also, but something deep inside of me tells me to hold on. I know when I'm feeling suicidal I don't want someone trying to cheer me up. That's not what I'm saying. I just want you to know I care.
