things change, it isn't always going to be this way.
there is another way, some other choice.
What have i not seen in this world yet? I what have i not done in this world yet?
pls don't give up. there is so much out there still.
Being transgendered I fear never having a good relationship again. Being a recovering addict/alcoholic and Hep C + I always think about dope and overdose for suicide but won't allow myself to do so until my son is grown up. Then of course there is the self harm/cutting stuff I struggle with and the various mental health diagnosis and meds I am on. So generally I just pray at night that God will take me in my sleep and hope that it is His will to have mercy on me, but if I wake up the next day I just try and do another 24 without any of my old behaviours creeping up and pray for the end again that night.
I got through last night by having a close friend share a bed with me. I talked to her about what's wrong and about my urges and then we talked about random stuff and had fun. I switched the light off as it went back into being serious so that I could talk until I fell asleep.
This stopped me from self-injuring last night and from doing something worse.
I hope I have inspired you to think about ways you can get through times like this.
I still feel that way but I'm gettingthere
please hang on... talk with us when you get urges...*hugs*
