Hi folks. Please talk to me. I am suicidally depressed right now, and extremely anxious.
1. I have no friends. 2. I am a total failure. 3. My boyfriend has been unemployed since March and can't find a job. 4. My job is insanely stressful right now. 5. I am stuck doing all the housework lately because my boyfriend has a bad back and a bum knee and this is driving me up a wall. Posted on 07/22/08, 09:07 am |

Hugs back atcha Teardrop! The friend I called is actually a counselor (convenient huh?)...she asked me if I wanted to go to the hospital and I declined because I've been through that song & dance before.
Seriously, Xanax is like my personal savior when I get like this. Xanax and this place and nice, supportive people :) like you!

You're not a failure by any means, you're working aren't you. I know it's not the be all and end all but you're job contributes to the community within it is placed.
I know how it feels to not have any friends, or believe you don't. You deserve friends just as anyone does. I know you will find friends here. No question. Please have hope, it's damn hard i know but hold onto it; it will be the key to keeping you alive and give you the chance of improving how you feel and your life in general. I don't feel able to write much more but i want you to know that you have reasons to hold on, you maybe just can't see them right now. stay strong and keep your chin up..

What the others said.
If you're suicidal, you need an ER and not DS. Take care of yourself.

And slice,
"you're not a failure, you're working aren't you"... what's that supposed to mean? I'm on disability--working or not working does not (at least am trying to drill this in my brain) determine whether we're failures or not.

Hi Mindchatter - I don't think slice meant to offend you or me or whoever. Unfortunately a lot of people view working = successful but just because you're on disability doesn't mean you're not successful.
I wouldn't worry about it ;) So yeah, is there a way to remove this cry for help? I'm kinda over it now and don't want people worrying about me anymore :) not that I don't like the attention of course.

I don't work either.
It wasn't a message to everyone.

Doesn't matter if you work or not, the sentiment is the same.
Get a grip.
