Re: Suicidal AF
Are you in hospital now @Former-Member ? Maybe talk to a nurse and let them know exactly how you are feeling.

Re: Suicidal AF
They know. They don’t care as I’m just a bpd. I don’t count and I’m not worth care. I need to somehow help myself. I don’t know how.

Re: Suicidal AF
To be honest @Former-Member that is really up to you. Maybe find things to do that take your mind off your thoughts and if that is not possible then don't leave the hospital.

Re: Suicidal AF
I think the thoughts seem more powerful than they are. They're only thoughts, we don't have to act on them 🤔 Find something to do that makes you feel the opposite, that makes you feel special... because you are 🏆
