Hi @Lilly6 , I have also been thinking about you all weekend, hoping that it might be a kind weekend for you...it doesn't sound like that's been the case, and I am really sad to hear that you still want to end your life. 😞
I know you know all the helpline numbers and don't want to talk to them...I am just going to tag a @Former-Member though, in case you could do with some extra support, after deciding to stick with the decision to end your life soon.
We care about you, and about what happens to you, @Lilly6 ... 💔

Hi @Lilly6 I am sorry about your nightmare last night. That would have been horrible for you. I am also sad that you are still considering taking your life.
I hope and pray that you can stay with us at least to get some help.
We are here with you precious lady.

Thanks for tagging the moderator. The SANE forums team will be continuing to offer @Lilly6 all the support we can off the forums. It is just great to know you and the other forum members are supporting Lilly though this hard time. It can be a stressful to see another member in such distress so please take care,

Hi @Former-Member @NatureLover @Anastasia @Eve7
What a weekend I have had and lots of thought and reflection. I was very very close to taking action to end my life but couldn't in the end. I couldn't do that to my kids or cats and couldn't bear the thought of my kids having to make my funeral arrangements. I have some good support in place at work and in my volunteer role (have recently started moderating for a group I am in- go figure) and a few good supportive people I can count on.
Also I thank you here, your support has also made a huge difference to how things could have gone.
Nature lover I think my meds are finally kicking in but I may need to have them adjusted yet.
Hopefully it will be onward and upward from here, I am tired of being so down!!
