I've told my therapist before that I was mad at him for holding me to my promise. He said that just shows how much I'm hurting but that I still care enough to keep fighting back. I really don't think I want him to let go of me but sometimes the pain is really too much to bear.
So a month ago we did a future planning session. What would I miss if I took my own life? He had more ideas than I did. But one of the things he said was that I would miss (and he would miss) the opportunity to see who I was meant to be. Who ever I'm evolving into - she would never get to show her stuff...and that would be sad after all this work.
So perhaps try that. What would you miss? What dreams would die with you? Who would miss you?
It is so very hard when you are at the bottom of the well and there is no rope and no way out. But let your therapist help you - catch the rope when she throws it.
I'm glad you are posting.
