When I came here I was pretty deadset on not being alive. But oddly now that I am coming into the means with which to end my life I am finding myself trying to make the best of things. Anyway, it feels good to feel like I am more in control of my destiny, and maybe that's what I came here for. There are doubtless days I will still feel suicidal but it feels good right now to not be so.

I feel the same way. I was bent on not being alive when I joined and now I don't have any intentions of catching the bus. Of course that could change in the future as it usually does. But for now I am ok.

What are "Solutions" in a profile?
I do not think we are supposed to derail threads from the main topic, but anyway it means that one of my posts was chosen as the answer to a question that someone asked. I do not even remember why I got one, my posts are never useful.

I beg to differ, I think your posts and presence on the forum are comforting and helpful. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with others.

I agree I love reading her comment

I feel somehow similar to the OP but I didn't recover. I think the reason is the freedom to ctb if needed. You can speak your mind about suicide here without stupid prolife arguments.
I still think about suicide but I'm not in a hurry to do it.
