My family is my reason to live. My husband and my kids. My father died when i was 11, and it messed me up for life. I dont want to do that to my kids. I have multiple failed suicide attempts, all 10+ yrs ago, and i regret them all. I shouldnt have been so selfish.

Past month I was thinking of that and I got to the conclusion I have no more reason as dreams were taken away, pleasures were taken, desires taken, fun take, part of health taken, so on…or more corectly I’ve lost the.

Just decided I will not go ahead of my parents by my own choice. Than I’ll see…

I have a son. He is pretty independent and doesn’t really need me for anything but I would like to stick around. He said he might even move back here when his lease is up.

He lives 1500 miles away. Grew up on the west coast when I was in the Marines. That’s where all his friends are but his roommate think’s Arizona is getting expensive and his parents live in California so that’s even more expensive.

Louisiana is pretty affordable besides having the highest cat insurance rates in the country. They can get a three bedroom home here for less than what a 2 bedroom apartment is in Phoenix.

I filled up my truck a minute ago for $2.78 a gallon.

I had trauma from family member’s suicide.
Otherwise I feel that all gave up on me.
I gave up of my self…
I have just life…
Maybe it’s enough.
Maybe this illness ate me.

My elderly and frail father is my reason.
Once he’s gone, it might be a different story.

But I’m also living for my loving cat

My reason changes. I am thinking right now that life is beautiful. I want to see me become better and the world become better.

I like what iconoclast said about enjoying life enough. Also, I’m working on a watch collection lol. It’s a slow process as currently I only have two, but that might change in July if not then then hopefully august. Nah i enjoy life enough, my sister just had a kid and is pregnant again. There’s stuff going on.

I guess my kids keep me alive, even though they hardly ever call me, I keep telling myself that one day I’ll be with them again.
