Suicidal thoughts

Does anyone else have these but absolutely no intention to act on them?

I just sometimes feel like it would be an amazing release. But I don’t intend to actually do anything. It’s just a very calm thought. I think I just want to know that the people I care about, care about me, and would miss me if I wasn’t here.

Yes, sometimes when I'm driving, thinking I could just drive into something, no more struggles. Just pops into my head. Not something I'd actually do, because DC, SEN, no one else to do all the things they need.

No I never do. If you are having these thoughts then please let someone know that cares about you and can help you get help.

Yes, kintsuji. I get that too. And sometimes wonder, what if tonight to left and didn’t come back. But like you, responsibilities mean I never would.

Picknmix, thank you. I don’t want to burden those around me, but I did reach out to my gp. Got meds (some positives, some negatives of those) and counselling (absolutely worse than useless). I don’t have the energy to go searching again for a solution. Im not going to harm myself. I can keep going. I’m just not 100%.

I think maybe I’m just a bit of an attention seeker. In that I’m struggling and because I can’t find it within myself to pull myself up, I want other people to do it for me. Which is selfish and not a solution, hence not telling people what I am really thinking. It’s too self-absorbed and impossible to rationally justify.
