I want to end my life. I don’t want to live any longer.
Why? What happened?
Don’t do that. You only live once. I know the feeling though…I have no real desire to live either…but there’s no turning back once you do it.
That’s really sad to hear. I hope you change you’re mind.
I was close to death twice by suicide, think of your family, you’ll make them suffer, do you want that? My parents cried everytime I tried to kill myself and ended up in the emergency.
My psysical issues are overwhelming me. I have to take three new drugs now.
Yeah, I have health problems too. But you have four beautiful children to live for. They need you. Are these health problems treatable? I have a bad back kidney problems and suffer from fatigue, and my knees are bothering me. Not to mention I need to lose weight. But hell, I drove 10 miles to Kohl’s to return an item and got my refund and went shopping to take advantage of a coupon. Wasn’t crowded and I ended up leaving with a new shirt. (That I paid for, lol)
That’s how life works. It gets unbelievably bad but more often then not a reprieve shows up. I know you are super depressed and maybe hopeless but no matter how trite this sounds, things change and can get better. You have a good sense of humor and a good spirit. Hopefully your health problems are treatable and you can get back to living your life. I hope you feel better. Can you talk to your husband about this. Life is full of troughs where everything seems hopeless. Life is full of peaks and valleys. That’s just how it works. I know it’'s hard to accept sometimes,
Hell, my neighbors want to destroy me. But even in the midst of all that, I still have good days. They ain’t going to ruin my night, I was out tonight and now I’m eating a McDonalds meal. They’re far away and 99℅ out of my head.
Thank you. Yah. I’m struggling to deal with my physical health. Ironically my physically health gets me down right now because it consumes all my time. But now it’s effecting the hope that I have to keep fighting. I just want the Horrible pain and constant illnesses to go away. I want to be fine.
Can these health problems be managed? Does the medication work? Yes, health problems really can drain you. It sucks having no energy.
I don’t want to get too personal but what do the doctors say and what are they doing for you?
I was recently diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis. I was in the hospital for two weeks. Then it developed a cyst that got infected and it necrotized. I was in the hospital for another two weeks. Then my left lung filled with fluid. And I got sepsis. I was in icu for another two weeks. The doctor gave me a forty percent chance of living. I’m going through another bout of pancreatitis again.
My mom suffered with that. I wish I could give you some tips on how to live with it. My mom had health problems for most of her life. Amazingly, she lived to be in her seventies though that’s not that old. Does surgery help allieve pancreatitis?
I’m sorry you’re dealing with depression. I truly believe that if you just hang in there, you’ll eventually feel better. I used to be very suicidal from the time I was 16 until I was 37. But now I have a great husband and I’m on Celexa and I’m no longer suicidal. It really can get better. Please call a hotline to get through what you’re feeling right now.

Wow, I don’t know what to say. I never had a life threatening illness though if I don’t follow my doctors instructions I could end up on dialysis. You just have to ride this out no matter how serious it is. I don't want to make light of it
but maybe the doctors could do something to make it more bearable?
I saw a pain management doctor and he prescribed three new meds for the pain. One is an antidepressant and I don’t do well with those. I know it will not be good. I’m dreading it, but I want this horrible pain to stop. The doctors gave me ketamine, but it gave me seizures and I had to stop.
Are you on a special diet, it Could maybe help. Like a really strict one.
If you are feeling suicidal or having a mental health crisis, please tell someone — a friend or family member, a teacher, a doctor or therapist or call 911 (if you’re in the U.S.) or the Emergency Medical Services phone number in your country.
You can also call a crisis intervention hotline—these are available in the U.S. and in many other countries. You do not need to be actively suicidal to benefit from a crisis hotline.

Im on a diabetic diet.
What you have for a pancreas is what I have for lungs. Doctors have told me they don’t know how I’m alive and breathing unassisted. Best thing I can say about having a chronic condition is to play the long game. Imagine yourself overcoming the illness. People have used positive thinking alone to get rid of their cancer. You just can’t give up.
It sounds like you are in good hands?
Maybe the pain medication will work.
It’s a narcotic and I having been taking too many. Now I have run out. I will have to wait a week to get more.
