I have nothing to offer you but my open friendship. Since finding this thread last night, I have rattled my brain for something to post. Nothing felt right, everything felt fake and short. I do know, I am here. You are not alone, you will never be alone. I want to reach out, hug you so tight and never let you go, whether you want it or not. Fight me at every turn, I'm not going anywhere. Please, if ever you want or need a friend, even a hug, I am but a post or an email away. Even if it's to sit in silence and listen to our thoughts rambling away (not sure if that's safe to say) over a nice cup of tea. I don't think I'm scary. I better shh ..it's not about me.
Take care, stay safe and keep pushing forward. Have a beautiful blessed day.

My friend asked me to come read this thread. This thread is so important it gets people talking about depression. When you see someone is going threw a difficult time, please don't wait,talk to them, listen to them.There is help and you can be helped.Many people who are depressed think it's because they are weak and it's their fault but it isn't, it's an illness. I have had demons all my life, i have suffered alone all this time, but I finally opened up to my doctor and will get the help I need. A close family member is convinced that some one wants to kill him, that people are following him.We got him to a doctor, with the help of policemen.He was at the hospital for 3 days and they gave him medication and he now has a doctor. He's 6 feet 3 inches, a macho guy, tough as nails, it means nothing when you fall into depression.We just need to talk about depression.
You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

Come here daily but always afraid to say something. Has anyone ever thought to them selves or said it out loud, the day die is the day I'l finally get to rest. I always say it but still trying to figure what i mean when I say it.

Quote by spriteI am happy you did not succeed, I'm sure that a lot of your loved ones are very happy also, think I need to stop saying this.
pretty much my thoughts when i attempted suicide. mostly just wanted, for once, to close my eyes and have some peace and quiet. really bad choice, but it made sense at the time.

Quote by sprite[bh] thank you, I don't always say it, it's just sometimes i get tired of the struggle, that being said just got a call from my son who's on vacation. Got tears as I was talking to him, I am very lucky. Wow i can't believe I'm saying this here but it does feel good to talk about it, thank you again.
yeah, but at the time it was so seductive and drifting off into what i thought was an endless sleep was blissful. that all said, one and done. never do it again. way better ways to deal with things now. now, i said. at the time, not so much.
baby steps. yeah, just try going a day without thinking/saying that and believing that there is an alternative way to peace and quiet. do it enough, you start believing it, even if only a little. baby steps.

Quote by RosepetalsI am happy you didn't go threw with it,please don't ever, you have so many people who love you, go to them,they will help you
Yes, I have thought before. I wouldn't have my demons with me and I'd be free. I've also tried before.
Once done, you can't change your mind. That's what has stopped me and also lacking the courage it takes to fully do so.
I'm sorry you are struggling. You aren't alone in that anymore though.
