I've come really far from being suicidal. there used to be days where I would lay in bed staring at the ceiling planning how I would kill myself that day. The cutting and the bleeding and the hitting myself and all. I'm a year clean from cutting. I just had the worst shitty day in a long while. I thought it would be nice to talk to others about it. Although a lot of my friends have / are depressed or have poor mental health or just are empathetic, i don't ever open up. theres not a point, i believe; they cant really do anything and in the end it doesn't do me much good unless they really really understand. so i listen to them and i offer my advice, usually amounting to "go spend quality time with yourself", because ultimately they haven't found peace with themselves. I really want to die today. something came up today and it was my fault, now i have to deal with the consequences tomorrow. even now, at 4:31 am i won't go to sleep because I don't want it to come any sooner. I hate being alive at the moment, but more than that I get scared because it reminds me of how little control i have. one day i can be feeling great and then the next minute i am destroyed. i dont know what to do. i have had so, so much fun the past year, and yet, i still wish i could have died during one of my many attempts. maybe selfish, but i am beyond terrified of pain and the cost of the pain outweights everything. feeling so stressed i am going to throw up & the feeling of utter worthlessness. I guess i am writing this because i want to hear if others understand me. i want to know that im not alone

You're absolutely not alone man, it's tough as shit out there. And I'm so proud of you for going a year clean! That's a LOT.

I don't blame you for wanting to avoid pain. It's clear that you have a lot of it inside you, and we're evolutionarily wired to get rid of anything that's hurting us. Obviously it doesn't make it any easier to go through.. but it's not your fault.

I'm happy you're still with us. Whatever you decide to do in the future, I wish you the strength to go another day. We're both in the club of feeling utterly worthless, but paying attention to small pleasures might help you find brief respite? Even if just for a few seconds, haha.

Would it help to talk more about what happened today?
