why? what made you change your mind ? what is making you feel like that?

madmarchhare · 02/05/2007 22:33

Do you have anyone with you?

Malaleche · 02/05/2007 22:34

sometimes ending it al seems like the only 'solution' - but you know it isn't, dont you? what's been happening?

08457 90 90 90

Number for samaritans

I know from personal experience that when you feel this bad Mumsnet doesn't help very much.

Give these people a call they are very very good.

Hi, there is a good site here if you don't fancy samaritans.

it's true that the internet is often little help though, when you feel like this.
are you seeing a counsellor or anyone?

Hi Callmewahtyoulike, I can understand how you feel, am in that position often, do you want to talk about it? It can help

hairymclary · 02/05/2007 22:43

cling on to the fact that you didn't do it. it's almost like a cry for help to yourself (which really, you already know). YOu're desperate, but you don't want to end it really, do you?

you need to see your GP, explain everything, and ask for an urgent referral to a psychiatrist. your GP has to do this for you. also ask to see your cpn

Are you alone with your son now?

Can you call anyone to come & stay with you tonight?

hairymclary · 02/05/2007 22:46

I am sure your kids don't hate you. I bet you do your absolute best for them.
what area of tyhe country are you in?

fireflyfairy2 · 02/05/2007 22:47

Oh sorry, I misread.

Still, have you anyone at all, a parent, a family friend, you can call, just to pass the time?

Hillls · 02/05/2007 22:47

Hillls · 02/05/2007 22:52

CMWYL - i am on my own and feel a failure so many times my eldest is 9 and she lets her mouth go foul at me or she will open a window and scream i hate it i am so out of control with her but no one wants to help me i have tried so many different people even called school psyc to refer her myself they say she not bad enough she just needs anger management... i know she not want to be with her dad many many miles away and never really sees her my parents live over 100 miles away i have no family nearby and friends all say i shopuld get out but none offer to babysit to give me the break they think i need it so frustrating but the thought of my children not having a mumas they grow up pulls me into line

Dimpled · 02/05/2007 22:54

have you spoken to a doctor about how you feel?

it is horrible to go through life like this. Lots of us on here have been in dark places adn come through.

mummytosteven · 02/05/2007 22:55

try and get through till next morning, where you can seek help via GP etc. until then if you feel uncomfortable on e-mail/msn, speak to the samaritans. a bath might help relax you/pass some of the time till morning.

Toothache · 02/05/2007 22:56

callmewhatyoulike - I've so been there.

PND after ds (nearly 6) was born. Wasn't an overdose, I used to quite methodically plan when I'd walk out the house in onto the really busy main road near our house. Would have the timing all worked out so that H was due home from work and ds would only b alone in the house for a few minutes.

Terrified myself and would phone H hysterical telling him to get home now.

Sweetie its awful... I know how you feel and there are loads of MNers that do too....
