I think you definitely need to seek help, your therapist sounds like an idiot if she knows how bad your feeling and isn't helping you. Do you have any family members or close friends you can talk to...I'm like you, I find it hard to open up to people, I was depressed for a long time, and only recently told a couple of people from my family, it was such a relief and weight off my shoulders to speak to someone about it, its something that one person cant deal with alone and we really do need some one to turn to when we need to talk. If you do feel like you are tempted to end it, there is no shame in going in the emergency room in hospital and asking for help...you have a serious medical condition, much like any other disease and should seek medical help. If you do go in to a emergency room, you will be sent to a psyciatric ward, where you'll speak to a professional about your problems, and they will help you get better....
Good Luck

Hi - I am sorry you are feeling so bad at the moment.
Hopefully some of the kind responses here will help demonstrate that there are people out there that do care about you......
Of course, none of us know what you are going through at the moment, or how you are feeling, so it may seem like no-one could ever really understand why you are thinking about suicide now.....
It may help to talk things through with an anonymous stranger - someone who will not judge or tell you what to do. That is what Samaritans exist for. Feel free to call anytime, on the numbers below:
08457 90 90 90 in the UK and Northern Ireland
1850 60 90 90 in the Republic of Ireland
You may prefer to e-mail:
jo@samaritans.org
I do hope you feel better soon. You may not realise it now, but by having the courage to ask for help, you might just have taken your first step towards a brighter future.
Take care:.)

May I say that I've been there.
After years of taking care of three parents dying one at a time. Depression overtook me.
For 7 years I thought of suicide. Then after finally making a Drs. Appointment, he learned I had a underactive thyroid.
I went on thyroid medication, Synthroid and in thirty days I felt totally normal again.. I WAS ASTOUNDED. BUT IT FELT WONDERFUL.
All the daily suicidal thoughts and depression went away. Somehow all of the things that caused me so much pain slipped to the back of my thoughts instead of being in my constant thoughts all the time.
It would definetly be a serious thing to consider.
It may not be the answer, but it certain isn't as expensive as therapy.
As a person of faith one of the things I was finally able to do, RE: caring for dying parents, was say" I did the best I could, I couldn't do any more, Lord help me be better".
I must say there have been numerous times in my life when I totally reach the wall that, by asking him your God will step in and take away the pain and distress in your life.
I am a person of faith and it aways amazes me that soon after I ask and you have to ask for the help (in your mind works just fine) , your life will just get better.
Please take care and God be with you. There are many people who feel just like you do.
If you are on a lot of medications, they too can cause serious depression. Make sure your Dr. knows how you feel.

I not only thought about suicide I attempted it a few times last year only.I went to live in London in April last year and everything was great during the Summer, then the winter started and I was alone and feeling very depressed.I quit my job and stayed in my room for 3weeks.I stopped eating and started thinking about suicide every day.I tried cutting my wrists and taking overdoses.I thought about jumping under a train.In the end all I wanted to do was run away and hide or just sleep forever so that my problems would disappear.When I came home and my parents saw the state of me we decided I needed to go to hospital.I was there for a month.It was all very surreal.I hated it there coz I I have a paranoia problem and all they do in there is follow you around with a clipboard and watch you eat and sleep.But maybe that's exactly what I needed.Since I got out I was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder by my psychiatrist and am on very helpful medication for it.I'm delighted to finally know why I changed from being on top of the world last year in London to nearly being under the earth in October.Don't think about suicide.Try to talk to somebody maybe you're GP even.And write down how you feel.You could show that to somebody then instead of feeling uncomfortable trying to explain.

Nah, I want to stick around and see how many people I can F* with before I die of natural causes.
just kidding, when depressed, which is seldom, I think about all the good in my life, take a walk, shop for nothing in a high street or shopping centre, do anything to take my mind off my problems. Also visiting elderly house bound neighbors helps as well.
Killing self is a cowardly way out. Having studied psychology for years, I can say that the worst part is the near misses. People who damage themselves for life physically, but failed miserably in suicide. Like the teenaged girl whose case was one I knew of. She tried to overdose but only destroyed her liver. Last I heard on a transplant list, but who knows if she will live long enough to get it.
Worse, it is a one way street. I care not to be fed to the crematory's fire until I must.

Hi there, I believe you need to seek out a Psychiatrist and maybe a different therapist. You don't have to feel so down. I did and now I take a little bit of medicine and the yucky feelings have lifted. Your life can be of better quality. Call a Psychiatrist and make an appointment. He/she will let you know the way to get rid of the lousy feelings or at the least make you feel much better so you can start living once again. :-)

I have been down this road and even went to the point of writing my will out last Christmas & planning the end.
I was lucky to have family & friends who I could talk to and yes I was under a councillor but I still needed to chat in between sessions.
I am pulling througth but still have down & Lonely days with hope that my life will eventually be OK again.
You have to believe that time is a great healer and life will get better & it really does.
Keep talking and smiling.
If you ever get suicide thoughts contact your doctor or the Samaritans you are never alone in your problems.
Good Luck
Jeff

Your feelings are not facts. They are like your internal weather system; they can be bright and sunny or dull and grey or wild and stormy. With the external weather, what do we do?
1) we accept it because we can't physically change it by an act of will.
2) We know that it won't last forever, so we make ourselves as comfortable as we can in spite of it .
3)We wait it out and sure as night follows day, it changes.
I know this sounds simplistic, but it's the truth.
The problem with bad feelings is that we tell ourselves that we can't bear them and must take drastic action to get rid of them once and for all. But even the happiest person alive can't deny that they have bad days;it's just that they are better at distracting themselves or waiting it out than some of the rest of us. We CAN wait it out and we CAN find something to do while we're waiting - even if it's only to paint our nails or take a bath,or ten baths - whatever it takes to let time pass.You are a good person who experiences bad feelings frequently at this time. You may have very good reasons for this and you can talk those out with your therapist, but it would be good if you could devise a few little strategies for waiting out the bad feelings in between appointments. Accept that you have them; accept that they're out of proportion at the moment and take my word for it, the time will come when you will be glad you waited; the day will come when you will say to yourself "It's not such a bad life after all".
If you can get hold of a book by Dr. Claire Weekes called Self-Help for your Nerves you might find some of it helpful. The book may be a little dated now, but she's very good at explaining how to cope with srong feelings, panic attacks, low moods etc. Good luck - you WILL get better; but it takes a little time,because you didn't come to this point overnight and you won't recover overnight either.
