I've been where you are... After my attempt, I spent years in therapy. It wasn't easy, but one day, I realized that the things that used to weigh me down weren't my fault and that I really was worth something. Now, I have a husband, two beautiful girls, a home, and a business of my own.
You never know what the future may hold for you. You just have to take it one day at a time.
I'll be on AIM every day in case you want to talk. *hugs*
You have no idea how relieved I am. I'm so glad you are alive, and that you are home. I could barely concentrate until I knew that you alive.
I urge you, please seek help and heal. You deserve to live, and there are so many here who know it. All over the world, people did what they could to keep you alive. You matter. You are worth it.
The offer still stands: if you ever need to talk, you have our emails and AIMS.
I'm really glad to hear this. I don't need to tell you how worried a lot of people were about you. I'm glad you're okay. I hope you will begin to find balance soon.
My SO used to get very depressed when he was younger and once tried to kill himself. He hasn't been so bad lately and he has found that taking Selenium (mineral supplement) helps stop him sinking into depression. It isn't a prescription drug over here - you buy it in health food shops. You don't even notice that you've taken it, but you start feeling more cheerful after about a week.
We have never spoken, but when I saw a friend of mine post about you on her journal I felt my heart leap into my throat and immeadiatly clicked the link to your journal. I was relieved to see this post. Next time things seem bad, stop, take a deep breath and begin making a mental list of all the things that make you happy. Or even a written/typed list. It helps you to focus on all the good and forget all the bad. *Gives a big hug* And talk to your friends because from looking at the previous post I saw that every single one of them would do all they can to help.
::hugs:: I've been away from LJ and other Internet sites for a long time, recovering from an operation. I am so grateful to God for saving you. You're such a young person, with your whole life ahead of you. Please don't try to throw it away again. ::hugs::
