I have been struggling a lot lately with suicidal thoughts. It’s become a daily occurrence and it’s been really overwhelming to cope. I am safe right but having to fight this is very exhausting. I feel so trapped, I am tired of living in pain, fear and shame. I feel like a burden to people and unimportant.

@Former-Member sorry for late reply but I've been just lying low after hospital and trying g to fathom where I go or what I do from here.
Everyday is a struggle with constant bad thoughts and just wanting the pain to stop but knowing that the future holds only more pain and suffering to come makes it hard to think why I should even bother to try anymore.
Thanks for the link I'll have a look but really I'm ready to just give up.

@Former-Member, I'm so sorry to hear that. Sounds like things have been extra difficult lately. What were you in hospital for?
Do you want to talk about what happening at the moment?
