The lady on the phone insisted I perform CPR. I reported her limbs were already stiff. Dont give up hope sir. We are on our way. When the paramedics arrived, they tried in vain while my brothers sat scared on the couch. They gave me the look. >I'm sorry, there was nothing we could do. Do you have somebody to call? I responded I already had. >My dad arrives, breaks down in tears as he walks through the door, confirming the paramedics were at our house. I maintain a calm state, shed a few tears. Hug him. Quickly move him to my younger brothers. >I didn't cry, until my Uncle entered the house. The strongman I had known up until I could appreciate just how hard my dad worked to bring us Christmas. He said I--m and then started sobbing sorry. I broke down at this point and cant remember much except empty lonely pain. Family friends had converged on the house.
It hurts to remember how empty I was.

The saddest strories are the ones we relate to the most :(

Big same, but with emulators instead of TV.
That's awful, I'm sorry. When my dad died it was the beginning of the end for me. Nothing but regrets and survivor's guilt since then. At least I got to see him in the hospital and in the casket for closure.

Feel this.
Don't even enjoy things I used like, like gaming or drawing. Just browse all day until I find something interesting enough to light up the receptors in my brain for a few seconds until I go back to realizing it doesn't matter and scroll on ahead.
TV show, movies, anime, I don't even have the patience to finish them anymore. It just feels pointless, since I have nothing to work towards besides more of the same..
Elijah Rodriguez
So much this. Bringing myself to do anything literally hurts me. It got worse since spring started.

James Lopez
if I didnt have alcohol and the ritalin my parents make sure I keep getting prescribed, I dont know what I would do. Even with that I just lay in bed, without it I'd do the same except I'd feel bored, tired, and miserable
feeling the effects of the medication and extending them through alcohol is what I look forward to, can anyone else relate?

So you have never been able to have sex without it triggering those memories?

All I know is it was less than an hour that I was unconscious. Or so I thought. I visited my therapist again after my stay at the institution, and she said that all the doors in the office were open, some things were pushed off of counters/shelves and on the ground, some drawers were opened; it looked like someone came through looking for stuff. I immediately blamed it on the cops looking for dangerous items that I might've used, but I really don't know anymore. I just remember passing out on the couch and waking up on it again.
And cops point guns at you if you're suicidal in case you attack any of them. It's just a thing that happens because suicidal people will do whatever it takes.

Anyone have experience with Strattera the nonstimulant focus drug? I'm considerably worried that it will hurt my already aching stomach and suppress my nonexistant appetite further. I'm not suicidal but I have been before. I weigh 140lbs at 5 ft 11 in. I've actually been avoidijg purchasing the drug because of this fear so any imput is appreicsted
I'm depressed from losing my mom 4 years ago to medical complications (sepsis) resulting from cancer. She passed 2 days after the oldedt child graduated high school and the youngest had one week left in 5th grade. I've lost any ability to uphold and mantain all but like 2 relationships with people I had known from before that incident until now. I've changed thru maturity and this experience about equally as much. I actually was so close to suicide that I chose within 2 weeks to either end it or move to a new part of the country and try again, and well I'm still here albeit sad living 650 miles from where I grew up. I lost the other two biggest influences in my life in the years since.
