AIBU?

MUMSNET literally saved my life this week

61 replies

PepsiTwirl · 28/08/2014 11:06

Just to say a heartfelt thank you to MN users.

This week has been the hardest of my life.
I tried to kill myself and was stopped by my DP, i had plans to do it again the following night.

Everything was ready but for some reason I posted on here and the response I got was amazing,
and I was literally talked down from ending my life.

And all this week posters have been so supportive towards me.

So thank you MN so much

Why not print out the thread so that if you have another very low point you can remind yourself of all the things and advice people gave you?

Glad you're feeling a bit better- just take one day at a time and remember that at any time at any point, someone loves you, even if you don't love yourself.

Catching up on yesterday's Xfactor, it's making me laugh out loud :)

Glad you're hanging on in there and hope you keep posting, pepsi.

Bakeoffcakes · 31/08/2014 11:54

I read your thread but didn't feel qualified to help. I was amazed at the wonderful support you had and I'm so so glad they were able to help you.

Love and best wishes for the future. Mumsnet is always here for youx

Marylou62 · 31/08/2014 11:15

I am sorry I didn't open your thread when I first saw it Pepsi....I was in a bad place too and don't like to just read and run....but days later I did read it and A...I felt sick that I hadn't offered any help...so sorry...
and B...amazed at all the MNetters who helped you through this awful time....
I have posted a bit on MN about myself and have been reassured that people really do care....Good Luck with the future Pepsi...x

Thumbwitch · 31/08/2014 10:42

Only posted briefly on your other thread but I'm so pleased to see that you have "turned the corner" and that MN was able to help with that.

Well done you for finding the way forward xx

Twunk · 31/08/2014 00:51

I read your thread after the event. I'm so delighted to read this. xxxx

Katkins1 · 31/08/2014 00:43

So glad Pepsi. You can always pop over to the village thread on the mental health boards. You are more than welcome. It's a thread where we all post our ups and downs, daily.

butterfliesinmytummy · 31/08/2014 00:40

Saw your thread, such wonderful news. And mumsnet is 24/7, there always someone here

Beavie · 31/08/2014 00:29

Glad to hear you are feeling better about things...mumsnet can indeed be an amazing place. A few years ago (under a different username) I was in a terrible situation far away from anyone to support me, and mumsnet literally got me through it and out of the situation I was in. I even met up with one very kind mumsnetter in real life, who was a great support. All the best.

Aeroflotgirl · 31/08/2014 00:12

So pleased for you Pepsi you know were always here
