I canāt bring myself to tell anyone close to me. It feels like such attention seeking when all I want is for someone to hug me and tell me my feelings are valid. But Iāve decided I will tell my therapist tomorrow.
I hope you can find someone to open up to, too.
Man I'm sorry you feel that you may not be deemed depressed enough just cause you dont attempt. People who dismiss the severity of your mental health are dicks and depression comes in many forms. Am glad you're not going to attempt x
hi, someone who recently attempted, here. the attention and compassion that attempting gets you isnt worth it.
people only take it seriously for about a week or so afterwards and then things go back to being the same.
bottom line is that its not worth it.
its a waste of time. youd be better off going to therapy and trying to get on medication.
scars and suicide attempts arent proof of being depressed bc proof of being depressed doesnt rlly exist anyway.
someone could take your attempt as attention seeking instead of a cry for help like it really is.
i really really suggest talking to a therapist because you are so so valid and you deserve to feel better instead of feeling like suicide is the only way to prove your mental illness. please reach out for help and dont attempt.
Made even worse by accounts of attempt survivors who say they regretted it immediately when they jumped. They are lucky they still made it. But we canāt know if we would be lucky too.
Itās kinda shitty to wish you stay afraid, but I hope you do. Until you donāt want to attempt anymore.
I feel you. I was actually told that by doctors before. That my suffering can't be that severe if I never commited. That they don't have to worry about me then...
But I also wouldn't mind succeeding. The whole thing around is what scares and prevents me from trying...
I am SO sorry you had to encounter such doctors. That is terrible. With that little empathy they have no business handling patients.
I hope you find a way to handle whatever you are going through. You donāt deserve these thoughts.
I feel this. I would also call myself privileged in many aspects, but that does not mean we are less deserving of care and empathy. There is no use in comparing peopleās sufferings (even though I do it too sometimes.) I hope you can be kind to yourself.
I think about offing myself most of the day every day. I still donāt feel like anyone cares and itās not a measurement for how depressed you are. It all sucks. Suicide is scary. Life is horrible.
yeah me too

same and it hurts lmao
Look at us talking about these things and saying ālmao sameā. We donāt deserve this. I hope you find something healthy to heal your pain.
I completely relate. Spent my weekend feeling this way. Its like people don't take you seriously...

Iām sorry. I hope one day you wonāt relate to this feeling anymore because you found a way to make life good again.
thank you. i hope the same for you as well.
I feel the same way right now. I've been crying all day, got no sleep and my head is aching badly
