Wow, I read this thread as though it was written yesterday... I even added my thanks!
Well, thanks, dear Alffe for bumping it up! I'd like to continue the conversation by adding my answer to the original question: Quote:
I have had thoughts of taking my life (again, off and on) for the last 3 years - and these were times when stress and life circumstances overwhelmed and pushed me deep down. Until that point, I could NEVER fathom what it would feel like... Until that point, I could not have honestly told you I had thoughts of suicide because I had NOT yet experienced those thoughts... when the thoughts came I realized what it felt like.... until then, I could only imagine... In experiencing those deep down thoughts, I finally understood why people take their own lives. I am very grateful that I didn't act on my irrational thoughts. ...and that Mr. Alffe took the gun away... I pray that KELL has a more understanding husband now.. its been 3 years since she wrote above and I pray that her cycle of abuse has ended... I hope cybil_who is at a good space in her life. And I'll answer the original question with a "no answer"... define "normal".. |
