I was at my lowest ebb last night and I reached out, posting my thoughts and my intentions (suicidal). The responses all pointed me to talk to the Samaritans, which I did. I needed to express my thoughts and my intentions and I needed a reaction - positive - which I received. So I just wanted to create this thread to say thank you.

I'm in a dark place at the moment but it isn't as dark as it was last night. I'm going to work through this.

Flowers didn't want to read and run. I didn't see the thread last night but I'm glad you posted and glad Mners were here for you

Hope Samaritans were helpful. I don't have much advice I'm afraid but just wanted to say to always come back here if you need us. Glad things are feeling a bit better. Take care Flowers

Not familiar with you ripples, and don't know your story, but I am glad to hear you're OK. (ISH!) Smile

I'm so glad you posted this, and that you are still here.
I was there a few years ago. I'm plodding out of it with meds and therapy. I know I'm not the only one here either. Flowers

I can't tell you what a relief it is to see this post, you have been on my mind all day.
I am also incredibly pleased you reached out to the samaritans and can now see a glimmer of light.
Things won't change overnight but they will get better in time as long as you give them that time.
Thank you for coming back.

Phew! I was worried.

It's hard ripples101, but it's never completely hopeless.

It really helped. Im glad I posted my threat last night. And I did see the replies before my thread was (understandably and rightfully) deleted. The responses to my thread had me in tears, but in a positive way. It made me feel that I'm not alone and all replies told me to phone the samaritans which I did.

Again, thank you all. You're all helping me through this and I am and will be forever grateful

Aw delighted to see your post ripples.
Keep posting, we get a lot of bad press but when the chips are down, we are a good ol' bunch.

MN bouyed me up through a hard time in my life and I've seen it countless times with others too.

Keep posting, one day you'll read it back and be amazed at how far you have got. 😀

Hooray you're posting, and not just a dot (or a dog Blush)
I'm glad you reached out and found it helpful. I'm sure things are not easy, but I hope they are a bit easier. Have paid off just past half a similar amount of debt myself, it's a long old slog.
