At thirteen I became suicidal after being sexually attacked by a freinds boyfriend. I attempted suicide and wound up in a hospital heavily medicated. I got out and went in to 5 day a week analytical therapy that took years, cost me my college savings and didn't help me at all. Again, I attempted suicide. I went into therapy again with someone new, moved to a new city and tried to start over. I wasn't successful so I moved to another city and tried again. I actually was briefly successful (zoloft) but it didn't last. I was then raped and beaten at a party and attempted suicide again and again in the hospital. I moved back to where I started and got married and had a baby in some insane moment when I actually believed my ex would be there for my son which he is not. I have been hospitalized 2 times since he was born, my ex took off with a woman 15 years younger than me and won't see his son or help me with anything financial. My parents help as much as they are able but are in their 70's and can only do so much. I'm in therapy and on meds but still want to die pretty much every day.
