I've been thinking a lot about how to kill myself

I don't want to be alive. There is a way I could kill myself that could probably pass as an accident. I have a young daughter. I don't want her to ever know I killed myself deliberately. I know my death would hurt her terribly anyway, but I know suicide would bring so many other difficult feelings for her. She's only four so she wouldn't remember me. Hopefully her dad would eventually find someone else to love and maybe my daughter would come to think of her as Mummy. Not Mama. It breaks my heart when I think of her calling someone else Mama. I am her Mama. But I am broken and so weary. I don't want to exist like this. I'm seeing my counsellor in a short while. What will she do if I tell her I'm suicidal? I don't want to go to A&E. It won't help. They will just make me sit around for a few hours and then send me home.

Hi there,
We’re so sorry to hear that you’re feeling like this. We can see that Tay17 has been kind enough to show screenshots but we wondered if a link might be good too? Maybe take a look and see if there’s anything which might be helpful right now: www.mind.org.uk/information-support/types-of-mental-health-problems/self-harm/helping-yourself-now

Please do think about exploring some of the options in the link above. Samaritans are there for you too, 24/7, by emailing [email protected] or calling 116 123. You can also see the resources in our Mental Health webguide here.

Very best wishes from all at MNHQ.
