In an ideal world, those of us who are suicidal would be allowed to temporarily exit the workforce, receive care tailored for our specific needs, and then be cleared to return once we are feeling well again.
The fact of the matter is, there are too many people to take care of and deal with, so our care gets expedited and put on a strict time limit. Our therapists only have one hour to spend with us; when people like us need days of one-on-one attention and support.
Before our parents had children, they should have noticed this, and thought twice about bringing another human into this world. I still can't believe my sister had two children in 2020. My heart cries out to them.
