Feeling Suicidal

So mumsnet deleted my previous thread, but thank you for the replies. I didn't get to read them all properly.

Basically, I've been feeling pretty down lately. Haven't spoken to anyone about it and worried about seeing a doctor. I'd rather just not be here as I don't feel like I have anything to live for anymore.

Just wanted to speak to someone/anyone that has been in a similar position or knows what to do. I'm scared of opening up to anyone in real life

I’m sorry you’re feeling so down. Perhaps worth calling the Samaritans- it’s confidential and they will give you the space you need to talk it through - number is 116 123. Hope things get better

Thanks. I've emailed Samaritans but not received a reply yet

Hey @NotFeelingGood Sorry to hear you're feeling down.

MN helps me a lot when I am feeling suicidal.

A combination of this board and whichever one interests me for hobbies or that sort of thing, for some useful distractions.

Do you have anything that helps?

Feeling a bit better this morning and might try and see a doctor. I worry about people thinking I'm just being attention seeking

There is nothing wrong with seeking attention.

This website is an excellent resource; you can use it alongside other support like GP.

Flowers. Just to let you know you're not alone. I suffer from severe anxiety and depression. I have good days and bad days. Today isn't great to be honest. X
