i want to die i have not eatin since thursday afternoon. the one person i cared about and loved has turned her back on me. i dont want to work i dont want to eat ( which is good cause nothing in fridge or cupboards anyway) i just dont care if i ever get out of this bed. i have already attempted it friday night by drinking a 5th of bourbon. i was going to take a whole bottle of tylenol pm's but got to drunk to fast and forgot about them. i am tired of struggling and being alone. i have no phone to even call anyone or a hotline. but who cares.

Michael, In the hot topics
Michael, In the hot topics section of this website on page 2, there are two articles on suicide. Below is some information that you might not have thought about.
"It is estimated that for every one person who commits suicide, at least six others are immediately affected by their decision. They could be family, friends, or co-workers, and all are left to cope with the terrible loss of someone they cared about. Survivors of suicide are those people who are left behind when someone chooses to take their own life, and are left to deal with the grief and loss of someone important in their lives. Each year’s suicides bring about an estimated 186,000 new survivors. Survivors of suicide are often left behind with feelings of guilt about not having done something more to prevent their loved one from taking their own life. If only they had talked to the person more or gotten them some other means of help, that maybe that person would still be here."
Please remember that your decision affects many other people; people that love you. Please reach out for help!

Michael, I also want to
Michael,
I also want to encourage you to talk to someone. Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Life will not always feel this way. I know someone who has had severe depressive episodes and have seen his overwhelming sadness. With the right help, life can get better. You will be in my prayers at this moment and tonight. Please reach out for help.
