Please don't. Please consider the little ones in your life.
What if you DO recover some? What if you give up before there's a good day?
Not discounting your despair. Please reach out even if its to a suicide help line.
Suicidal thoughts are so scary and I don't think you should be alone with them.
Find help. If not for yourself, then do it for yourself as a favour to your children. They should never have to live with that awful memory plaguing them their whole life through. The legacy of pain you will leave behind is abusive, my friend. And you are NOT that kind of dad. You love them.
Please reach out. For tangible help.

About it: October 26, 2012 I fell backward on an icy parking lot at work. I was on Workers Comp for 9 months. My PCS : everyday headaches became once in a while headaches, and neck pain became manageable. Still have occasional mild dizziness, sometimes fullness in the ears, convergence insufficiency, sequencing struggles, short term memory struggles, verbal processing delays. CT neg, MRI neg. Therapies: prism glasses, acupuncture, icing neck, resting, supplementing, Elavil 20mg at bedtime.
NEW: Completed 12 weeks of physical therapy and returned to work full time.
About me: I'm a marketing manager, a mom with a blended family and wife to a heart attack survivor. I believe my brain injury taught me more than it cost me. I'm grateful to still be me!
