Another one here for you, OP. Do you feel up to telling us a bit more about you, what you normally like doing when you're feeling low? xx

Are you still there OP?

Hello OP. I know you’re waiting on the Sams, but have you tried texting Shout on 85258? It could be a good alternative.

thanks so much. just off phone and going to bed. bit calmer.

You are loved and you are someone x
I'm also here for you too. X

Glad you got through. Sleep well x

How are you this morning op
Could you stay with your dad for a while

i can't stay with my dad, he's f/t carer for my mum and I'd worry him.

Told a friend I'd ended up calling Samaritans last night. They just said "oh they're great, it's good to talk". Told my sil I had been having suicidal thoughts last sunday. She was sympathetic at the time but nothing else. I get that people are bored of me and my troubles. So am I. Feel so alone.

Am slightly less devastated than last night in that am not ugly loud crying. But still feel so dreadful I just don't know how I can keep going. Have been having suicidal thoughts for over 6 weeks, pretty much everyday, many times a day. Am seeing therapist who's been encouraging me to reach out to people and that this Will pass. But it's not.

Your dad would be far more upset that you'd kept this from him, than you telling him the truth, trust me. I'm a mum to 3 DC, and I'd be beyond devastated if they felt they couldn't talk to me.

Open up. You need support. Stop hiding it, and ask for help. We all need it at times, there's nothing wrong with you and it's not your fault.

Have courage and keep talking here.

You have to let your dad know ❤️

Told a friend.
My siblings know I'm not good.
My therapist this pm suggested I speak to GP about increasing my Sertraline.

My partner has used samaritans when he felt like you and they saved his life. He was in a terrible place. For lots of reasons things have got much better. I hope they get better for you too.

I'm really glad he's doing better Thehouseofmarvels

I'm sat in the garden in hazy sunshine, a thing that would usually fill me with contentment and I still wish I was dead.

I'm really glad you've talked to your friend and siblings.

That's a positive step.

You won't feel better overnight, it's a long old road but the light will shine again for you.

Having a really awful morning. My ex is literally driving me insane

how long can a person survive feeling this utterly awful.
