I kinda wanted to die earlier but I didn’t want to die die. What I wanted to do was swallow a bunch of ibuprofen and then throw them up or call poison control or something. I had them in my hand. I looked up dosages and stuff and it turns out up to 800mg is okay (four pills) I took one easily, then two since that’s kinda average dose. I actually put the third one in my mouth and then spit it out and stared at it before swallowing. The fourth one I just took really fast. It was so easy. I could have just kept going. But I couldn’t let my family know and I couldn’t make them pay for a hospital visit. But I could have taken more. So I called the suicide prevention line. Apparently they’re open for not just suicide, but anyone struggling? So I called. I was kinda nervous and it was difficult to articulate myself but she was super nice. I think her name was Ariana. In the end, she asked me to put all the ibuprofen back in the bottle, which I did. Then she encouraged me to see a counselor and helped me figure out how to get it started. Then I went to bed and listened to music until I fell asleep. I was a little worried bout the ibuprofen, but it was fine.

Thank you for sharing. You are worthy and important. Keep reaching out and treat yourself like the special person you are.
ReplySpeaking as a nurse you should be okay if you only took 4. I get it though my friend. The other day I was in a similar situation. Wanting to die, but afraid of it being so permanent. I highly recommend counseling as well I am so glad you reached out and that it was helpful. You're adding to this earth my friend.
