I was chatting late into the night yesterday and I learned something. I learned that I'm at very low risk of committing suicide compared with some other people. I shouldn't worry so much about myself anymore. I think I understand why the pdocs I see are not worried about me despite all my threats.
There are some people who are very persistent and who choose and attempt very lethal methods. I'm worried about these people. It is one thing to think about killing oneself, it is another to act upon it. I'm a mostly no action sort of person. There are some people out there who attempt over and over again. I'm really worried about those people.
I realized that I never truly wanted to die for long periods of time. Sure I get depressed, but it doesn't last. There are people out there who are severely depressed all the time. I now marvel at the things that they are able to do despite their illness.
