I am in a crisis, mental crisis, emotional breakdown, what am going to hold on to.
People seemed to support me more, now im more just ignored becuase i am already labeled that I dont need advice.
Sometimes i think if i would just go away, this will all go away! it brings peace.
My grandmother is losing her mind, my mom is going crazy having chaos, she has rages. Collage, i want to be something. There is a shotgun in the garage, getting out of this.
Lord forgive me of my sins.
I hope this will go away.
Matt

Hey, get that thought out of your head, OK!!
You will have better days! They may not be today or even tomorrow, but they will come. You are not limited by your family.
-and NO! it doesn't sound like a relief!!
I think you need proper treatment though. Don't let your thoughts be clouded by your anxiety, agitation and mood right now.

Matt, u are not alone even though it feels that way and hurts like hell right now. My mother is crazy and does a lot of the things ur mom does but that is HER issue, not urs. U can make it. I promise u that. I did. Get ur degree and get away from the hurt. Plan for tomorrow and handle each day as they come. This is not permanent but hurting urself is!! Slow down, calm down and realize that tomorrow is a new day and cld. be better than ever. Don't deprive urself of the happiness u will have. This is not forever although it may seem that way. Hang on Matt, hang on.
You are not alone-Abbey

She threw me up against a wall right after I had a miscarraige because she did not want my husband to take me to eat out at a restaurant.
She told me (in the past)that if she committed suicide it would be my fault.
Not to mention the nasty names she called me while I was growing up. I used to believe her. Sometimes I have to fight hard not to believe her.
I have come to the realization that I am not responsible for my mom's happiness. That is her problem.
Hang in there Matt.
Luv ya,
Lynn

Hi Matt,
It must feel just awful right now with all the stress you are under about your grandmother and your mom and starting college and stuff.If you are considering using that shotgun, you need to get someone to take it away from the house, somewhere you do NOT have access RIGHT NOW. Any other way you might be considering hurting yourself also needs to be taken away, so you don't have access when you are feeling the worst. This is for YOUR SAFETY.
Death does not sound like a relief to me. It sounds very very final.
I can hear that you are very unhappy, frustrated with trying to cope, and feeling alone. Please hang onto any bit of hope you can find. You've felt better before. I believe you can and will again.
Matt, if you haven't already, please go make an appt. with the counseling center at your college. They can help you. If you haven't already, also go make an appointment with the Office of Disability Services at your college. They can also help you with support and assistance in school, since you have ADD. Please take every advantage you can of available resources to help you accomplish your GOALS.
I believe you can.

Hi Matt
I reckon death will be a huge relief for me, mainly because I won't be here. But I don't want to end my days living out someone else's violent sick fantasy, by which I refer to the culture we live in, which in your case includes stuff like that gun in the garage.
I want, at the end, to be able to say to myself that in my own terms I have lived something like an honourable life. Which means a lot of endurance and all the stuff we live with. I'm not feeling so good either, at the moment.
All the best
Declan

Might sound silly bro,but no one ever came back from there,so its not promised its an escape from depression.Who knows what lies there,i try to remember that myself when those thoughts sneak in and remeber death isnt an option.
I dont know if u have yet,but i think its time you confie in ur doc about these thoughts,they are becomming too extreme.
I gave my doc this impression and i think her attitude that day toward my treatment was more intense.
Let ur doc know the kind of troubly ur having and perhaps her approach toward ur treatment will be more agressive,u just never know,good luck man.

Oh Matt,
One thing that always keeps me from making a permanent decision is that I think of all of the people I would hurt. I think about my family, my colleagues, even my pets. I know you don't feel supported IRL now, but what about us?!? Do you realize how much we'd (here at Babble) all hurt if you did something like that?
Of course this srategy is not going to feel like enough to keep you well long term, but it is something that can latch on to for now to get you through the hardest times.
Take care and please post soon.

I've often thought it would be a relief to be told I only had six months to live.
And then I take Zyprexa 10mg feel a lot better and buy myself some more time.
