these emmotions are like waves you are at the peak but the wave will soon pass. Have confidents that these feelings will fade and dont do anything impulsive. Hun, I cant say I know what you are feeling but I have been there. I am proud of you for asking for help but we can only do so much here. You should call a friend, or someone you trust. you should also not be alone right now go somewhere public it safer there. If you really do think you might hurt yourself please call for help. I am thinking about you and wishing you the best. Always Lindsey

I have felt this way before and I am sure you have felt this way beofre in the past before this too. It passed that time and it will pass this time too. You need to talk to a professional about this, like your doctor or a councelor. I am so sorry for your pain.

please remember that these circumstances are not permanent. this too, shall pass. you will make it through if you just hold on. allow it to take its course and there will be light at the end of the tunnel.

if you don't have an upcoming appointment with your counselor do you think you could call them and talk?he/she would most likely fit you in for an appointment since you seem to be in crisis right now.i think you should try doing that.

but i know what this feels like.i understand completely how you're feeling.things seem so crazy and out of control and you seem to just be in the way or you feel you've had enough of all the craziness and want out.you don't like how you're being treated, you don't like the environment you're in and you just want out.it seems to be the only option you have.

but like others have said, it won't be like this forever, i promise.there are times of higher stress,anxiety, depression,hopelessness,and so on.and then there are times when those strong feelings subside and you feel almost normal.it's those times you have to remember and focus on to get you through times like this.just know that things can and will get better.

please keep yourself safe.don't isolate yourself, you'll feel worse.
