Hello racer,
I'm having a good time for a while now (life is going good for me), but it doesn't mean, that I should forget all those people who are in crisis.
racer, remember no evil lasts for ever, not even too long. I don't know what brought you down, but I know that you'll be up. I had my bad times,
and I learned that life is like a see-saw (spelling?). If you would feel better to tell me more, I (and few more people) will listen.Peter
> This is so awful. It's the first Christmas I haven't spent with my mother, and I am acutely suicidal and there's no one I can turn to. I've tried, I've called friends to please help me, I've asked for specific things, for someone to spend an hour just being with me, or talk to me about somehting unrelated to the depression, but no one will do it. I just can't cope any more, and the local crisis line just keeps saying, "come into the hospital" which is not a good option. The county hospital is just a warehouse, no therepy, last time they locked me up there, I didn't eat at all while I was there, and no one noticed or did anything. They kept after me to "do this, do that, contribute to group, etc" and I was barely able to get out of bed, betweent he depresson and the not eating.
> Please, isn't there anything I can do? Can't anything help me? I don't watn to die, I just can't stand to live with this pain. help me
