I wish I'd had a nervous breakdown sooner rather than later.

I wasn't a very nice person before my breakdown.
It would take too long to list my faults.
The way I treated people was appalling, talking about them behind their backs, even saying nasty things to their face.
I had a breakdown a few years ago, since then I am a much better person, it's like I've been given somebody else's character.
If it's any consolation to those I've hurt, since my breakdown, my husband has been extremely verbally abusive, my mental health is worse than it's ever been.
I tried to commit suicide, Christmas 23 and ended up in hospital.
My husband phoned me to tell me, if I wasn't out of hospital by the Saturday, he wouldn't be able to pick me up, as he was spending a few days with his brother.
I've developed agoraphobia, cut myself off from everybody, which has given my husband carte blanche to ramp up the abuse.
I just want to say, I'm so sorry for my past bad behaviour,
and just hope people have forgotten about me, rather than forgive me.
