I have just been so confused. Which would probably expalain why I've been all over this board the last couple of days. I'm just so close to giving up. Life just seems to keep going downhill quicker and quicker. I feel like I'm on a sled going down a ski slope on a patch of slick ice. I started out writing a suicide note last night and just keep adding to it. I'm scared to death to tell my counselor. I told one of my workers but they think I'm fine now so....I don't know if this is hello......or if it is simply a goodbye. For those who know me and tried to help me thank you.

" Well it seems pretty ridiculous that no one has responded to you.
Just keep going because you will find a way out. I never thought I'd find a way out either until I realized that happiness still existed. Separate the mind from your feelings because they only multiply one another. Step back and look at your situation. "

" Read some of the MANY posts in the Suicide Group. It is all said there, .. over, and over, and over. You will get the benefit of MANY responses there. It is a supermarket of how suicide is not the way to go. "

" As you go down that slope, it gets colder too. Remember you are not alone, if you want to talk, let me know. I think I know how you feel with the only way out idea. "
