Thank you for that dear Gaer.No, no, no! There are four million lives the soul can enter before he gets a chance to live in a human body.
In a human body, one should not waste one second of life because now you have a chance to grow to God!
Treasure this life, for one day you will no longer breathe in the body.
@Ruthanne, Ask your angels for help. in times of deepest distraught, they will surround and
encompass you with love and protection. YOU CAN ACTUALLY FEEL THIS!
They may soften your heart in surrender or stand with you to fight with courage.
Look at life as a gift with every breath and you will feel joy.
Or talk to God as if he were standing in front of you.
Oh, I wish I could help you! But, I don't want to preach at you.
Please just take it one moment at a time. You need HAPPINESS in your life.
Stay on the forum. Between all of us, we will get HAPPY again!
Thank you Blessed. You are very sweet and I've always thought that. I get that thought time to time and fear telling my doctor because last time I did they put me in lock up for a week. I don't want that again because hI was isolated from my pets for a week.m. I couldn't taker that again, my blood pressure went sky high. Anyhow I'm ok right now.@Ruthanne, You are very brave to ask the question. I believe many of us had fleeting thoughts, including myself. We have all suffered with grief, anxiety, illness, financial problems. I for one do believe that it is best to have a open and honest discussion with your doctor. Some people (me) need medicine to feel better. Therapy also helps. I find when I am rough time it makes less anxious if I just talk to someone.
My point is you have nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed about. Call the doctor, go in a have that visit. It can make a big difference in your everyday life.
Maybe I left my sense of humour at the dentist today....but I don't find that funny on a depression threadOnly the morning after a heavy session on the single malts![]()

For THIS thread, itās not the least bit funny. It is, however, most inappropriate.Maybe I left my sense of humour at the dentist today....but I don't find that funny on a depression thread![]()
Ah well - applogies if my wierd sense of humour offended. Point taken and noted.For THIS thread, itās not the least bit funny. It is, however, most inappropriate.
Glad you didn't, as @Blessed says you are brave to ask the question, and I also agree that many of us have at least fleeting thoughts along those lines.I tried to delete this. Sorry,
I believe it's not even 7am in your neck of the woods. Perhaps a strong cup of coffee would help. You are making no sense and really, you have no idea what loneliness means.Those of you still lucky enough to live with partners and have close family can't understand the depth of loneliness. It's not a criticism, just a fact. I know some claim to be lonely within their family group and demand full status of loneliness, but you don't know what the phuk you're talking about. And those who choose solitude have no quarter in this department either. Loneliness can kill, slowly, day by day.
My, I so wish that were true! How about this: there are many kinds of loneliness. You are correct about the coffee.I believe it's not even 7am in your neck of the woods. Perhaps a strong cup of coffee would help. You are making no sense and really, you have no idea what loneliness means.
Yep, I'll buy that!How about this: there are many kinds of loneliness.
Obvioulsy my applogy wasn't accepted. Fair enough.This thread makes me sad after just reading through it. I guess there's no place that's truly safe from jokes... even about something so serious as wondering if someone with clinical depression ever feels like dying. If I would be to that point and find this thread, I'd never feel comfortable posting my true feelings.
I agree that posting your question was brave, @Ruthanne . I see some good advice here and I hope some of it will be able to help you. Any of us who've suffered know that it's the last thing in the world that should be made light of or laughed about because there is NO humor in someone with severe depression wanting to DIE.
By me it is. By the "guest" reading us without being a member, or even a member who'd been thinking about suicide and reaching out for support, it kind of scares me. Maybe I should have a coffee with Pepper, but I've seen too much in life to have not spoken up.Obvioulsy my applogy wasn't accepted. Fair enough.
