So, in January, I became suicidal because of very poor choices I made, and I had thought that I couldn’t live knowing I did wrong.
Well, fast forward to March, when I told my friend about it. She told someone else, who then told my mom, who then confronted me about it. I started to get better after that, and thought that I was free of it.
And then guess what a few months later? I randomly thought "hey, go overdose on pills."
I refused to do it, and went to bed. Now, I’m not depressed as I was when I was suicidal. I have no reason to die. I don’t even know why that thought came up. So, I thought, "okay, it¡s not like I did it, maybe it's something that comes with recovery?"
The next night or so, my brain decided to tell me to wrap a piece of cloth (idk what you call them, but they're on the inside of robes sometimes) around my neck. I tried to resist it, but I finally went over and did it. I didn’t really tie it tight, so it was really loose. It wasn’t even far off the ground.
But anyways, after I did that for a few seconds, I just went back to bed like nothing happened. Which is weird, cause I know myself, and I know I’d cry after realizing what I tried to do.
And then just a few days ago or so, I had this thought that I would hang myself after we moved to our new home.
The weirdest part of all of this is that I don’t cry about it or anything. I mean, I do feel kinda shocked after the thought of what I just did/do, but other than that it's just…. Nothing. Not really nothing - but it's as if I’m processing it like I do with everyday life.
Part of me thinks I’m just acting, like in a story (idk how else to explain it). The other part of me feels as though I’m doing it to "spice up life" and to "make it more exciting".

could it something to do with whatever happened those days? And those poor choices, maybe if you're still feeling guilty about them, your mind could just be trying to cope, in an unhealthy way.
