If I could do the job part time from home I would. It just isn't available.

I have tried studying to get skills that might allow me to work from home but I kept crashing. I would study 10 hours a day or longer. Then I would stop studying, sometimes for months. My meds were swithched because I was having mixed episodes, after that I have no interest in studying. My meds were switched again, no difference. I have no ambition to even find a way to work part time from home. I tried to go off my meds to see if I would study again but that didn't work out to well. I don't know if the meds are having that effect on me or if it is just me.

You do have brain trama but you kept trying with bipolar before that happened.

What is my excuse?

I have no value to society and I don't have it in me to try.

The only value my life has is to not hurt my daughter.

A lot of times I want to die, but lately I feel I will have to do it. I have the pain in my chest that makes me think about doing it and fear in my head that I will have to do it. The anxiety is so frustrating.

I ruined my life and feel now I have to pay.

I'm sorry I am posting this, but writing down how I feel so that someone sees it seems like the only thing I can do. It is the only thing I can concentrate on. I wish I could write about it forever so I can do something. I don't want to do anything else.
Acemagoo You have value beyond your comprehension. Sometimes we have a shattered view of ourselves when we are going through this type of illness.

I also have chest pains that are caused by anxiety,and panic attacks. Please keep taking your medication. I also have thought that I would do better without medicine,and tried to stop gradually over time. I almost ended up in the hospital. My doctor put me back on a full dose of medicine.

We also have a Survivors of Suicide forum. I almost committed suicide myself when I was going through a low time in my life. I've been through many low times when I thought that I would not make it through another emotional low.

Life is worth living,even though things are not looking good for the future. The bible has helped me. I try to take one step at a time.

I hope that you feel comfort talking to us. BF
