@Sans911Do not for one minute listen to the garbage that comes out of her mouth.
You are NOT taking up space and the world is a better place because you are in it. I am so sorry that it has come to this and you feel this way. I know my words will not mean a lot at this stage, but please keep reaching out for help, on here if need be.
You are improtant @Sans911 . YOU are WORTH IT and YOU DO MATTER

@Sans911 someone who has never been in this position just does not understand - at all! This is not a choice, we don't choose to be so low that we cannot see any options, we do not choose to NOT want to end our lives because some MH so-called professional tells us there is another way - it is crap - they have NO idea how dark it is when we are in that place. Would we choose to live if the world was on our side - maybe - but it does not ever seem that it is. It does not even matter that people say they care because we don't care about ourselves. This is a sh*t place to be in - you know it, I know it and anyone that has ever been 'here' knows it also - and we also know that unless you have lived in this darkness you have absolutely NO right in making any sort of judgements.
I hear you Sans911 - I hear you!

No we aren't @Sans911 and @Former-Member is 100% right - this is not your fault - not even a little bit. These so-called 'professionals' need to walk even a minute in our shoes to get just how debilitating, hopeless and lost it feels when you cannot see any other options. We are all in this together @Sans911 - I know it does not feel like it - but we each do get how incredibly hard this is - and none of us is in a worse place than anyone else - just different - but different isn't judged on and scale Sans - it just is.
So we are 'just' here - but here with each other - and we get it....
