" honey that's the wonder of this site!!! we all have the same feelings, but thank god not all at the same time!!! We can only share our own strength and hope from our own experiences...what worked for you might be the best thing in the world for some else or not...we have to pick and choose...what works for us we take and what doesn't we either leave or tell someone else about, but ultimately we don't have control over anyone but ourselves...NOTHING that you or ANYONE ever said MADE ANYONE ELSE DO ANYTHING...you can't make someone kill themselves...but you just might give them something to hang onto...honey, it's ok to be selfish....I know that the whole world tells us that it's not, but it is and espically for women...we take care of the world, but listen....it's not selfish when it's self caring...how can you take care of anyone else if you first can't take care of you....you're suffering right now and I would gladly take it from your shoulders, but it doesn't work that way baby, it just doesn't...I think you need to go to the hospital or at least call them....PLEASE TAKE CARE OF YOU!!!!!! LOVE you, me "
