Dear, dear Ms. Alffe. I think of you often as I still go to see my therapist. We've discussed my suicidal ideation a LOT. I've thought about it ... a lot. I'm so grateful I have her to talk with. What you just posted has so much merit.

I was going to say a bunch, but now I think I won't. I feel so badly for people who become so overwhelmed they take their own lives.

Even with my impending new grandma-dom, I am still fighting that monster depression, and even as recently as yesterday, had the thought of ending it all. It filled me with guilt. But I have no plan, I promise.

I don't know if I'm highly sensitive. I know I'm too hard on myself...something I work on the best I can.

Again, I'm going to shut up. I think this synthroid medication is making me crazzzzzyyyyyy!
