I don't see the point in living anymore. I can't.
I've called helplines but tonight it's just not helped.
I've spent way too much time in hospital over the years and nothings ever helped.
I just can't anymore

That sounds like a great idea @The-red-centaur - get out and get some fresh air - it can do wonders for us when we are not feeling great. Do you think you will be able to get some sleep when you get back?

I hope your walk was good @The-red-centaur and helped clear your mind somewhat. I am heading offline for the night shortly but will check in with you tomorrow. Please call a helpline or get yourself back to hospital if you begin to feel the same as you did last night. We care about you here buddy and want to see you safe. Until tomorrow @The-red-centaur 
Goodnight

The stupid health system here sucks @The-red-centaur 
Have you got a plan on what you can do tonight to keep you distracted? Have you started any new paintings?

I get how you have to be in the right headspace to paint or even colour in @The-red-centaur I have finally gotten back into my painting but it is slow going. There is a lot of blending to do and then the finer details when it dries - that will take time though. I am using oils for this one so although it leaves enough time in between sitting to adjust, it also takes time to dry for the details I want to add over the top. I have been doing it for around 18 months so another couple of week won't hurt lol
What is the plan for tonight buddy? More xbox?
