These forums are about support..about holding each other up..about giving, or trying to give someone a reason to live..just by letting them know that we care..by offering a hug...whatever will help get them past that moment.
We all know how it feels to have lost the will to live...to feel hopeless.
It's ok to talk about how you feel...it isn't ok to threaten us with suicide.
If that makes anysense at all. *grin Thanks waves! Bizi is still asleep.

i quoted alffe to stress the point that it is ok and welcome here to talk about your feelings. even dark scary ones. but not ok to threaten us or make us feel guilty. we are just everyday caring people. we are not dr's.
but i do believe that by posting it is a reach out for help. it's the ones we never see that first post i pray for.
waves i am so happy that you are back and feel comfortable posting your feeling here. now tell alffe to go nudge bizi and wake her up before a monkey jumps on the bed!
