yes, your family is struggling seeing you down, because they care,

but i guarantee...

*sorry if this is kinda, in your face*

no matter how great their struggles seem to you now, losing you would be a much, much bigger burden to them. and no, they would not get over it. people never get over suicide. even natural death is a toughie and some people don't get over that quickly or easily (and some do not get over it at all) ... but folks can never quite wrap their minds, let alone their hearts, around suicide.

so don't ever let yourself be convinced that they'd be "better off" without you. it is a lie told by depression. it is not the case.
