Question

Answer

Living with Chronic migraines has made me think about it quite a few times :/

Answer

Thank you guys, I know it's a dark question but it helps to know I'm not alone sometimes. I'm sorry for everyone who get like that, I know it sucks. Just hang in there, you've all been doing that longer than me so congratulations for making it this far.

Answer

I too suffer from low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and bipolar. I have a beautiful three year old daughter, and a wonderful fiance. I have a roof over our head, I'm in school and got good grades, however it kills me to ask for help, and there are random times when my mood package; the depression, anxiety, bipolar, and low self-esteem gets to me where I just feel like a failure in life, and that I bug people; including myself, to the point where I just wish I could end it all, and I just have nothing but pain. Seems like the only thing that keeps me from going over the edge is God,  Jesus, my grandma(who is deceased), my daughter, and my fiance. I just can't complete the suicide part,  because I can't let them down

Answer

I've been suffering with depression for quite some time as well...the first time I seriously contemplated suicide I was 14(im now 29) years old...sitting in math class one day I was oblivious to the problem my teacher had written on the board and was focussed on the suicide note that I was busy writing because I had indeed planned to take my life that day and I wanted my friends and family to know how much I loved them...in fact I was so into that letter I did not see when my teacher left the front of the classroom until I heard him speak over my shoulder...he took that letter to the principal's office and a few minutes later was called in...my parents were called as well and I started on medication a few days later...
I still get those moments where I feel everything would be better if I ceased to exist and ttc hasnt made that any easier...
I know my family would be crushed and for their sake im trying to hold on as long as I can

Answer

I attempted when I was 16 and used to self mutilate. Been suffering with depression, low self-esteem, and anxiety since I was 12, but I'm learning to cope with my feelings and will start seeing a new therapist soon. Sometimes, Life gets the better of me and I have these thoughts of how and when I would do it, but then I picture my son and husband and I slowly come back from that dark place. I'm scared that I'm going to get there one day and won't be able to come back from it. :/
