Hi, I'm a single mum and I find it very hard. I get extremely down and have very dark thoughts. Last night for instance I woke in the middle of the night and was thinking I just wish I was dead, I hate my life [redacted]*. Then I eventually fell back asleep but when I woke I had the same intense thoughts on suicide. I got through a few hours and the thoughts came back. It is now 6.30pm and I've gone back to bed in the hope I can sleep and won't have to experience these thoughts. This has been going on for a very long time
Is there anyone else here in a similar situation? Or who has a friend or family member in a similar situation? What did they do to improve things?
I've tried anti depressants but didn't find them to help. And I saw a therapist also. I really am at my wits end. I am tired of this life now. Anyone have any thoughts?
