I think about suicide all day long

Very literally all day, it's become the first thing I think about in the morning to the last thing at night.

I think about methods (pros and cons), whether it is more or less selfish to leave a note, how to minimise impact on DH and DC (e.g. is there a way to make it look like an accident), whether I care if there is a life beyond death.

I think about it so much it's stopped being distressing to me. I feel quite numb about it, even find comfort in it, but a part of me realises that's not exactly normal.

I have OCD, I'm wondering if there is some kind of suicide OCD.

Hello OP, we are really sorry to hear you are feeling this way.
We hope you don't mind, but when these threads are flagged up to us we usually add a link to our Mental Health resources: www.mumsnet.com/webguide/mental-health. You can also go to the Samaritans website at www.samaritans.org/ or email them on [email protected].

Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you will be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but as other MNers will tell you, it's really a good idea to seek RL help and support as well.
Take care, OP.
