It's been a week since I joined SS. It's been a huge eye opener for me with sad post and lots of empathy amongst members. There are so many of us who are so unhappy with life. I'm just wondering why you want to ctb.

My reason is 22 years of struggling with bipolar disorder and recently diagnosed with ME. I'm not ready yet but I want to make the right choices and method if I do.

Why do you want to ctb?

22 years of struggling with bipolar disorder

Similar. I don't even know how many years exactly. Sometimes it seems as if I had symptoms and/or manifestations as young as 5 or 6. I certainly entertained ending it at a very young age.

At any rate, my first terribly challenging depression was in 2002 and first full-blown mania was a couple years after that (triggered by pure MDMA).

I'm 48 now and the most recent mania (once again) cleaned me out. Getting a little too old for this.

BP generally worsens with age, makes one more prone to other age related illnesses and just sucks ass to have.

I've noticed an intensifying growth of crippling anxiety / insomnia coupled with the depressions anymore. If that's a sign of what's to come (beyond all the other crap) well, no thanks.

More and more it has become evident that my so-called "Golden Years" are clearly pre-tarnished and I'd have next to no chance of retiring in any situation resembling comfort without safety nets, very little social security and a meager support network.

I also feel homeless (in a global sense). I've lived and worked abroad for the majority of my adult life so feel very disconnected from the US while remaining an outsider-foreigner in my usual haunts.

I've outlived my father (suicide & same diagnosis) by almost 2 decades. I've had a good run, lots of travel zigzagging the US and globe, worked in many vocations, met tens of thousands of people, helped quite a few of them and (on a good day) don't have too many regrets. Any shame, regret, past mistakes were borne of this disorder and do not represent the real me.

Nonetheless, BP is harsh, very real, overpowering, ruthless, painful and often does end in self destruction.

My physical and mental health have both been steadily deteriorating for the last 7 years. I am reaching a point where working full time is impossible, and my bills are piling up. All of this is compounded with the grief of losing my son last year. The mind and body can only take so much.

Bp at the moment is depressive, not had a manic episode since last October. My only relief is sleep which sometimes doesn't happen and I'm relying on illegally brought sleeping tablets to sleep. I stated the menopause early and this as not helped my state.
I have distractions in my life like work, dogs and a lovely partner but I hate how I feel. I have been medicated through out the last 22 years which as saved me to a degree. Medication isn't working anymore and I'm on 2000mg now of carbmazapine and I'm like the walking dead. I'm surprised I've still got my job as I'm getting so forgettable, they know of my illness so that's a help.

Severe obsessive compulsive disorder leading to depression, starting at age 12. Now Im 25. I dont know why i dont see more folks with OCD here. Its really crippling and over time, when you develop severe depression too, life becomes a living nightmare.

OCD is very crippling, I also suffer with it but Bipolar outweighs all of the rest.
I'm scared my golden years will loss of more memory and me not remembering anything. When I start feeling that way I'm out of here. It exactly scares me to death, how ironic!

I'm an ex-pat from Russia (very high suicide rate to begin with) and my family left me alone here to go back to our Homeland when I turned 18. Went through college, got a good job in my field and still crippled by obsessive compulsive disorder and severe anxiety/depression. The anxiety makes it very difficult to make new friends and the insanity of living in a very big city can leave one feeling very lonely. Living alone is really hard for getting psychiatric help since there's no one to force you to go to the doctor/therapist. Makes for a perfect recipe to want to CTB.

I have a dad that I'd ideally not want to traumatize, any suggestions?

My reasons: ADD and a family history of depression don't mix well. I'm in Engineering and a lot of friends/classmates ctb and I feel the same way.

As a father I am not sure what you could do to not traumatize him. He's going to wonder what he could of done. He's going to feel massive guilt no matter what. He's going to be thinking of you and remembering his little boy growing up and all the things you did together. He's going to be crying a lot and be in complete shock, and maybe just a little angry too. He's going to have a hard time every having fun or being happy about anything ever again because if he ever does he's going to suddenly remember his little buddy isn't around anymore. He's going to feel guilty for feeling happy thinking about how sad his son was in the end. I'm sorry if this is hard to hear but it's exactly how I would feel if I lost my kid, even though right now we are estranged and our last few months have been rough to say the least. He'll always be my little buddy no matter what.
I think you should make a goodbye video for him. Explain how difficult life is for you. Tell him what a great dad he's been and that you'd never have made it this far without his support and love. And be careful, this is not the time to bring up something that made you angry or disappointed with him in the past, no matter how important you think it is. Anything like that, he'll never stop thinking about it for the rest of his life. Explain to him that you feel like you've tried everything, that there's just something chemically wrong with you that you have to do this. He's going to be wondering over and over in his mind why didn't you reach out? Why didn't you just talk to him because he would have done anything for you. So you're going to have to come up with an explanation for that that doesn't make him feel guilty. Hope this helps. Suicide completely wrecks the hearts of those who love us.

a grieving mother
Sep 15, 2019

My mother (who was a single mom) raised me and died at young age, then my grandma take over and raised me, and my grandma also died. They are my immediate family members and are dead.

Here in the U.S., my life left was my son, my baby, and my son died in Jan this year (10 months ago). Time suppose to help me, but nope, it get worser as time goes by, complicated grief.

Every.single.day is I bawl and cry. I'm surprise I haven't fall sick given I cried every day for the past 10 months. I lost weight from not eating much, I got pounding headache due to prolong crying, my eyes now it blurry, and I get stomach pain from bawling. Those are zero pain really, as my grief is what killing me everyday. I just want be with my son on the other side.

Yeah, people might call me mental like why you want to end your life after your baby died? Well, I do want to end my life. My son was all I have left in this world.

Still trying to find a place to jump (I need something like 1,000 feet height). Living like this it better to end it all. Whether I reunited with my son on the other side or not I don't know, but even if there is nothing after death, it still better than living.

oh and even if I die, I have zero family, it okay, it not like I left anyone behind or give them pain. due to my death.

It's so complicated. There are emotional reasons and physical reasons and mental ones. Medical reasons. I really could go on and on. I've talked about it a lot in similar threads, but I just don't know.

I had breast cancer at a young age which basically destroyed my life. I had a good life. I had a normal life. I was probably the healthiest I've ever been when I was diagnosed. I've never had any health problems before that. Within days of finding out I had cancer we discovered my thyroid also had some problems. Everything went downhill from there.

In the hospital right before I went into surgery to remove the cancer, my best friend told me he was afraid I'd never be happy again. He was right. My life basically ended on December 15th 2010. Everything after has just been procrastinating the inevitable. I've held on as long as I can, but I'm realizing there's nothing to hold on to anymore.

My body is mutilated and ruined forever and nobody can fix it. I keep having reconstructive surgeries and they've all failed. I could do it again but I don't know if I could handle the disappointment of the results. I don't even recognize myself anymore. I don't know who I am. I have crushing grief that won't go away. It's been 8 years and it feels like it was just yesterday. All of the emotional wounds are so fresh and they refused to heal no matter what I do.

My cancer was a rare and aggressive form, and we found out I have a genetic mutation that puts me at risk for it coming back and getting ovarian or pancreatic cancer.

I already have problems with my pancreas. It's very damaged and scarred because I had a gallstone blockage and my pancreas basically started to dissolve itself. And it never really healed right I guess, and that's caused me to be constantly nauseous or throwing up everyday. I have to take high doses of Zofran daily. Like several times a day. Sometimes I have gastroparesis and pancreatitis. Luckily that has not happened recently, but I live in fear of it happening.

And I'm haunted and terrified every day of the threat of cancer. If it comes back I'll be stage 4 and that's basically a death sentence. My doctors monitor everything very closely which means lots of doctor visits and tests and scans and ultrasounds and it's horrible. And so there's no way I can forget what happened to me because all the maintenance for 8 years and for the rest of my life.

The worst thing is that a lot of surgeries I've endured left me with horrible side effects and hideous mutilating scars. I have a lot of nerve damage and phantom pain and sensations. That is the worst because you can't do anything about it. When I'm not in pain I get phantom itches that you can't scratch and sometimes they last for days. My entire chest is just itching and itching and itching but it's not really there. My whole chest and parts of my arms are completely numb and the itching happens under the numbness deep inside and there's absolutely nothing you can do. And the pain is the same way. It's all real but it's not real at the same time. With this kind of pain you can't treat it with painkillers or anything like that. I have to take a lot of gabapentin and sometimes that controls the nerve damage.

I had lymph nodes removed and there's some side effects from that. I had my thyroid completely removed because I had Graves disease. But removing it was not the best choice, but I was dealing with the cancer at the time and my endocrinology team basically bullied me into it when I was at my weakest point. They had a serious hard-on for removing it. So now I am on thyroid hormones daily for the rest of my life, and even though it's a couple of tiny pills it's so difficult to maintain. And nobody can get my dosage right and that affects everything. It makes my depression worse. I feel like shit every day just because my thyroid stuff is unbalanced.

I'm diabetic because my pancreas just decided to be fucked up. Insulin injections and glucose monitoring are hell.

I'm basically losing my best friend. I feel like I'm slowly being replaced. I used to be first in his life and now I'm second. We've been extremely close for 15 years. And on top of everything else he's preparing to move very far away from me. I feel like after he moves I'll never see him again. He breaks my heart every day and he doesn't even realize he's doing it. Or maybe he does and doesn't care. I just don't know.

The worst thing is all this is caused a deep depression with constant suicidal ideation. I'm also diagnosed with an anxiety disorder and PTSD. All my dreams are flashbacks two horrible things that happened to me.

I'm constantly battling my depression which really wants me to die. I don't want to die but I cannot live like this. I've tried and tried to get better and get help. Nobody can save me. I can't let go of the past. I'm haunted by everything. I'm permanently grieving myself.

My sex life is ruined. I feel like I can't show my body to anyone anymore, but I have a few special friends who don't care about that and we fuck anyway. But I don't enjoy it anymore. I don't really feel pleasure at all anymore. Sometimes I go through periods where I have lots of sex with strangers and make them hurt me so I can feel something. It crosses the normal boundaries and borders on very dangerous and that's the only way I can get anything out of sex anymore. I secretly wish that sometime we'll go too far and I'll die. And then I have the opposite where I just reject everyone and avoid it as much as I can for as long as I can. I'm miserable. I think I've lost my regular fuck buddy because I kept putting him off so long.

I have anhedonia so bad that I've basically lost all the good feelings about everything. There's no joy or pleasure anymore. Food either tastes completely wrong or just doesn't have any taste. None of my hobbies are fun or anything anymore. It's like I never enjoyed them to begin with.

I feel like I could just go on forever about this but whatever. I basically deeply hate myself now and can't come to terms with my new reality. I'm permanently grieving. I have strong suicidal ideations all the time. I'm trapped in a nightmare.

Severe crippling anxiety, treatment resistant depression, fatigue and more recently all the signs of early onset Parkinson - I 've been feeling like an 80-year old with matching lifestyle for years, and I've given myself permission to exit. Also, my mom has ME/chronic fatigue, can barely function and has been permanently suicidal for the last 6 years at least, so I'm given a taste of what I can look forward to. She's told me numerous times she wished she had a deadly disease or that she could be euthanised so in that sense she will understand my decision.

Unless I can turn the current direction my life is taking around it is very possible that sometime in the future I will have such a low quality of life that CTB will be a better option to living.

I may well have already peaked in life and the lifestyle I had a few years ago is gone forever, I'm not prepared to live a hand to mouth existence or find myself living in the street.

So while I am currently not planning anything in the near future I need to tear my ass off the couch and start preparing things so that if the time comes for me to end it there is the least amount of inconvenience to those around me.

It's funny I wish I had cancer or some terminal disease then I could just neglect to treat it and ctb that way. I wish I had mental issues to blame this on. Instead I'm healthy, financially stable, and I was pretty happy. But some mistakes I made many years ago, getting mixed up with the wrong people, now they're coming back to haunt me and I'm facing hard time. I'll be a very old man when I get out if ever. I never hurt anybody but the system doesn't care. I've got good lawyers but they're saying they still can't keep me out. In my job I help people every day, I try to be a positive force in the universe, I have friends and family that love me, but none of it matters. What I'm trying to say with all this is that our society is really messed up. It's just a matter of luck if law enforcement decides to nail you they're gonna do it unless you are a billionaire or something. I'm petrified of having to go back to jail. It's so damn cold in there and they don't give you enough clothing to stay warm. There's nothing to do, no point in anything, you just feel worthless and life has no meaning. It's truly torture and we're putting these people in prison and it's only giving them PTSD and making them more crazy. Then when they get out and screw up again in the real world everyone smugly says yeah that guy was a born felon.

My childhood was awful. My mother hated me and abused me physically, verbally and emotionally all the time. My father was an alcoholic and got really bad when he got addicted after losing his job. There was domestic abuse in my house from my father to my mother since he didn't like her hitting me and she refused to stop. I came from a broken home, there was absolutely no love. Just misery, fear and torture. My own mother would say that I'm not her child and that she found me on the street, she loved her nieces but didn't love me at all. Everyone hated me in primary school, I only had three friends but they broke up with me on the last day of year 6 after a silly fight we had. I felt that my whole family from my mother's side hated me and only liked those two nieces. My father's side neglected me completely. I had to go to fostercare at the age of 11 because of the abuse but I came back home after a week. There wasn't a single good or happy memory.

My teen years were horrible aswell. Everyone hated me in high school. The popular group would say shit to me and I was bullied. I only had one best friend. The older girls from the three years above (8, 9 & 10) bullied, teased and laughed at me. This continued until I left school so it was constant for 4 years. I went to fostercare again in year 7 after me and my mum fought on my birthday and she hit me after I did something not good. My mother was more abusive throughout my teen years even though it was still a lot when I was a child. She would hit me with clothes hangers, sticks and curtain poles, tv remotes, broomstick, even a hammer, anything she could find. My father was away because he wasn't allowed to come home since I was 10 because of the domestic abuse. He was still drinking alcohol despite living with my grandmother whom lived close to us. I was the loser kid at school. I was obviously always picked last in PE, no one would talk to me. No one took the time to get to know me, they didn't want to know. I went through more bullying and was laughed at after some stupid decisions I made from facebook. I had a big group of friends with my best friend included in it, they broke up with us after a fight we had. I still felt that all of my family hated me. A girl joined me and my best friend and the three of us became best friends. Within a few months into that, she would treat me badly. Call me names, threatening and using me. I had the fear of losing my best friend so I had to stay with her aswell. If I didn't stay with both of them, I would've had no one. Everyone thought I was ugly and a loser, I did too. I began self-harming at 13, I became severely anxious, depressed and suicidal. All I felt was loneliness and emptiness, self-hatred, broken, ashamed etc. I had more horrible incidents online through messages. I struggled with religion at 14, my mother abused me more since she didn't approve of it. More incidents happened in college and the staff in the nursery I volunteered in for my course would gossip and snigger at me because of my social anxiety. I can never forget the faces they made, they didn't like me. I failed college after that. My father got alzheimers because of the alcohol, my mother's abuse continued and worsened.

My adult life became worse. An incident happened because of that "best friend" I had and her fucking selfishness. I lost my religion and peace of mind. I lost my hair because of the extreme stress and torment. I cried everyday for hours, days, weeks etc. The depression and suicidal thoughts got worse, I had severe anxiety and I couldn't leave my house. I wouldn't take care of my hair and I stopped taking baths. I became filthy on the outside like I was on the inside. I became rebellious and evil, an extreme sinner. I would hit myself and started smoking as self-harm, I threw up a few times. The torture at home got worse, I didn't talk to my mother for more than a month. I met a beautiful soul on here but he left after speaking to me for a short time, I cried all day, for days. I was willing to stay alive for him to be there for him, and hopefully, be with him. I took sleeping pills and had an accidental overdose the day he left. I couldn't handle the pain. I went through more abuse after that and I made horrible choices because of that "best friend" and the flight. I went downhill again in November, got even more worse and lost all hope altogether. I started self-harming again but the cuts were deeper. I would do it more often and I would hit myself. I became bulimic, I binged and purged every meal, at times to the point of heartburn and stomach acid coming out. I couldn't go out, I stayed in my room all those months and my depression got worser. I unwillingly had to get on a flight with that "best friend" who manipulated me and the police stopped us. I had to stay at my aunt's since I couldn't go home. I was miserable there aswell and I drank bleach and cut myself there when I had the chance. I'm currently staying at my other aunt's house and the feeling was still the same when I came here. I still feel hollow and misery even though I'm fooling myself. I still feel alone and that no one loves me.

This isn't everything, these are just the main things and the ones I could remember. I know a lot more has happened throughout my life. My life's sorrow was constant, the pain and suffering was always there and it never stopped for a moment. I'm only 20 and I've been through all of this shit. I wonder what I did to deserve any of this and why I was born. Now, I just tell myself that I deserve all of it. It's easier that way.
