@liam91404 I'm sorry you're feeling like this. that's really hard. Try to remember that there are people who care about you. If you want to talk to someone, you could always talk to one of the listeners. It might also help to do something to take care of yourself, even if it's small. I hope the rest of your day goes better *Hugs*

@liam91404 I don't think I can answer that for you. There might be things going on in your life that's triggering your depression, but sometimes there isn't, and it just seems like you don't have a reason to be depressed. Either way is okay. You don't have to have a reason why you're depressed.

@liam91404 I don't know how things are in mental health hospitals. I hope everything goes well. Keep posting on 7 cups if you feel up to it. Talking on the daily check in threads has been good for me. Maybe it will help you too. I hope you start feeling better soon. *Hugs*

I made my friend a journal before she committed suicide. She's the reason I started going to this site and am paying to talk to a psychologist here. She told me she didn't have many friends but it wasn't true. She just couldn't see it at the time, but there were so many of us.

@lightKite6232. You are not alone, menopause causes very many hormone changes in the body, but it is very scary , I too go through extremely bad feelings, it will get better ,but it takes time for your body to adjust. Keeping posting here, there are many caring people!

A friend of mine killed herself in January. She had a son and husband. She had lots of friends and family. It doesn't just affect you when you do something like that and it's not a positive effect.

When I started to want to die going on SSRI meds helped stop that feeling after the side effects subsided and there are other types of meds and therapies out there which also help. Please consider seeing a doctor in ER or calling crisis hotline and believe me that you are not alone and it can get better if you stay alive. The only chance to see how it can get better is to stay alive. <3
