I was hosptitalized for severe suicidal thoughts late December due to my ex partner making me relive some childhood trauma. Now they rejected me again for new years celebration. At least with the year starting at its absolut worst, it can only get better right?
this is heartbreaking to hear; you shouldn't have to go through this. stay safe! each day is progress, it will get better <3
It's one of those things where it's good to really face it and to make a clear decision because it makes life easier if you know. It's said that the decision to live or die is the most fundamental philosophical question.
And ya it's definitely gonna get better! It's just a temporary thing and it doesn't define you.
Yeah, I working things out, my perspective on whats to come is pretty amazing compared to what shitshow I'm currently in, coming out to myself really helped and gave me my will to live back. It's been really rough but I really think that I hit rock bottom already and I'm alredy getting out of my pit.
Reassurance is very helpful, thank you
Perhaps twenty years from now you'll be in a garden drinking wine with someone you love, talking about what happened today.
