Years ago I was extremally depressed but I had to keep that to myself as "mental health" is non-existent to my family. It was one night where I was cramming for a bio test and switch just flicked and the thoughts rushed to my head. "Why am I alive?" "Im a nobody", "waste of space", "kys,kys,kys", "i deserve to die". I couldn't think properly and made the rash decision to attempt to take my life. I took a handful of random pills I had, turns out they were expired. Apart of me knew I wasn't really glint to die but I simply needed that fear and excitement to think I would. Hours later I woke up with the sharpest pain in my stomach, a full 10/10 on the scale. I started to cry and went to my dad who had been drinking well he was on the computer (a regular thing), I sobbed and stated we needed to go to the hospital immediately. He asked why and I explained, he quickly told me that "its fine, just go back to bed". However the pain was too much so I just sobbed in my bed, he came to check on me and I asked to go to the hospital again, he said no. He then woke up my sister and told her to deal with me. I immediately felt guilty as now she has to stay up with me because of my decisions. I tried to stop crying but still wanted to go to the hospital, my sister clearly caring yet slightly annoyed as she just wanted to sleep (understandable). I began to pass out for short periods, I ran straight into a door, and unconsciously fell off my bed. I begged my dad one last time if we could go, he got annoyed and said "wait an hour, then well see". I was mad, what the fuck did he mean "well see", what if I dropped the bomb right here and now that I tried to kill my self and you cant even bat a fucking eye at me and this pain. That moment, I wished so badly I succeeded in killing myself because not even my dad cared. However I didn't. I don't need sympathy on this post and I'm not trying to trigger anyone, this memory just wouldnt let me sleep tonight.

    No matter how bad the situation gets don't try to take your life brother. There are many people in the world craving for the privilege you have and struggling with life !
