I’m so sorry that you reached that point where you thought that your life was not worth it any more. Keep on fighting the good fight, it will be worth it in the end. Stay strong.

Hi Megan
I'm so pleased you're okay. Everyone here has felt really bad about what they're going through. Believe us when we tell you that feeling bad doesn't last forever. You're really young and have a great and happy life in front of you. I know it doesn't feel like it now, but you do.
We'll all look after you - just tell us when you're feeling bad. I've come to this forum lots of times in the early days feeling really rotten - and people here have always made me feel better - enough to carry on again.
You can message any of us anytime. There's always someone around to talk to and help you.

I don't know how you made it to a hospital and under the proper care but you made it through the worst time in your life and you were strong enough to survive. NEVER FORGET THAT. Your depression won't go away by itself, that would be like saying diabetes will go away by itself with out doing anything about it. But by the same token this is a medical condition and it didn't happen because of anything you did wrong. What happened is a symptom of the condition. You survived that symptom and now you make it one step at a time till the symptoms start to fade with the help of medication and support from counsellors and friends and us here if you need us.
I am so glad you came here and I just hope you will come away with 1/4 of some of the hope and friendship I have found here when I have been at my lowest. People I have never met and most likely may never meet have been the most understanding and patient when I have been so screwed in the head I just keep beating my head on that brick wall and making the same mistake over and over. Even then I am still accepted and even welcomed for the advice I can give from my experiences. I know a few weeks from now you will be able to supply someone on the verge of making that same decision that you did with your insight and the benefit of experience.
Good luck and you can always PM me or anyone anytime you just want to chat.(I have lived with depression for years and my stbx also attempted suicide a couple of times so I have some personal experience with the issues)

Thank god that you survived! I have thought about suicide for some time now. Last night I was really close to doing it. So close, that I could taste the blood. I came here at 4 am. I vented and cried while I was typing, and now 12 hours later, I am happy that I didn't do it.
We are all here for you. There are more here for you than you think, so place a smile on your face for a few seconds, because I care a lot about you.

THIS is the kind of thing that gives hope...next time you are in the pit, remember this instance and just hold on for 12 hours...
I'm glad both of you are here today! :)

Get yourself into counseling to deal with your depression and suicidal thoughts.
Suicide is not the answer.

Thank God, he has a perfect plan for you and death wasn't in it. I'm so very sorry. Times are hard right now, but I promise you things will get easier. Do you have children or family near by? Would you like to come stay in the country? Until you are stronger. Please don't ever try something that stupid again. Been there done that. I felt really stupid afterwards.

My friend you mention God in your signature. We don't know what the long term plan is and it's not soup yet. Lots more to go in and cooking before the final result. There is much worse, I'm sure you saw some of it in the hospital. You are alive now because you are not supposed to die like that. The same fire that melts butter also forges steel. Steel yourself for the pain, it will make you stronger and God probably wants you to have that strength for something one day. I know how lonely and hurtful and unfair it is and how utterly helpless you are, but think of people who endured the holocaust, or cancer survivors, paraplegics, missing children, and fight. Get angry. Get drunk. Whatever it takes. Fight like hell, and survive. It took a long time to get to where you are and you've got a long time to go. It's not soup yet.

I am so happy that you failed. This was a great blessing. A chance to fail, to find a new balance.

All you have to do is say the word and I imagine just about anyone here will PM you their phone number.
Take that route well before you decide to pop yourself full of pills.
No amount of pain you are feeling is worth ending your life. It doesn't matter what the circumstances of your divorce is.
