Thanks Raena, I am starting to fight, instead of just 'giving in'. I hope your depression isn't too bad, either, I know it can take a long time to get over the death of a family member. I think you're a great person, bubbly, funny, good to know you, even through this message board!
I'll jump in with the rest who feel this way sometimes. Last night I came home from yet another too-long day at work and I just stood there in my kitchen and cried because it seems as if this is all there is and ever will be. Work like a slave to come home to an empty house. Well, I have cats, so THEY need me, but I'm sure my daughter would properly care for them if I am dead. But then what? I just stood there wondering if there was any point in going on. This comes and goes. Nothing much ever changes, no matter how hard I try. It's work, pay bills, sleep. I've done all the recommended activities--find interest groups, do volunteer work, blah blah blah, vomit vomit vomit but life does not change. Still wake up in a panic thinking of death, still feel sad every night, still always always always alone.
It doesn't seem as if there is anything to look forward to but more of the same. Feel a little bit better today and gathering up some sweaters and stuff to donate to local hurricane victims. I might as well make sure my belongings do some good.
If you really wanted to kill yourself, and had the courage too, I think you would have done so by now.
Just because someone doesn't kill themselves nor have the 'courage' to doesn't meant they don't want to die, stop getting it twisted. So I'm very sorry to inform you, if I owned a gun we wouldn't even be having this conversation, but think whatever you want.
