I want to Thank everyone who is sharing there personal struggles with a topic that still has a Stigma. You are very brave.
Sharing things and being able to tell someone and not be judged? Thats a beautiful thing. I hope that the world starts to be more compassionate and we find ways to get more and better help for people in need.. __________________ Helping others gets me out of my own head ~ |

I am glad you haven't deleted your post. I remember how when I had my very serious attempt in 2015 that when I was with others who didn't know (for instance, my H and I went to a play with friends), I felt like I was different from every in the room and if they knew what I had done they would be shocked. It was hard to think of much else other than how shameful what I had done was. I was in a whole different mindset and PC was the first place I could talk about it. My H supported me as much as he could but it was hard (and would be repetitive) to talk to him about it everytime it was on my mind because it was always on my mind. My POV is that it helps to have a place to talk about it. Hugs to you. I know the more recent the trauma is, the harder it is to talk about it. Stay safe Jennifer and everyone else struggling with this issue.

People were surprised when I went to the hospital for my attempt. They said it came out of left field- that I was just fine earlier that same day. I guess that's how it goes sometimes.

I have “successfully” avoided hospitals since I was last abused in one aged 8...

My attempt when my daughter was 5 was a hugh stock, Noone realized just how bad I was, I wish I had reached out, It would have saved me the trauma and certainly saved me family and friends.

My first suicidal episode hit my wife very hard. While I can't recall much of that time, I do remember her asking me, "How can I trust that you're safe, that we're safe?" It has made me afraid to seek help because I don't want to bring back those fears for her. __________________ >< |

Yes, she did have a valid question honestly. My family and friends felt the same, wondering if I would try again next week or next year I think by you seeking out help and having a treatment team you are showing with actions you are taking your mental health seriously and taking steps to find stability. Actions are better than words in many cases. __________________ Helping others gets me out of my own head ~ |

The Skeezyks has 2 major suicide attempts to his credit each of which landed me in the psych wards of 2 area hospitals (plus some not so serious ones that didn't.) I regularly think I should try yet again, but have no plans to. I've also been an active self-abuser... some unexpectedly recent. I'm just now coming to the realization I will never be truly safe...
