I've Planned it Out

Given my circumstances, I know I could very well end my life one day. I have a mental illness that has wreaked havoc on my life. If I were to go through with it, I have an online post planned out. I already know what questions and comments will be asked, as it's the same stuff you hear when anyone takes their life.

"He never showed any sign of wanting to take his life."
"I wish he had just reached out to me."
"I wish he had just said something to someone."
"Why would he do this? It doesn't make sense."

I've done all that. I have hundreds of screenshots to prove it, which will be included. When my wife died, a whopping total of three people were there for me... and I hardly knew them. My "best friend" never reached out to me, as he claimed it was "too much" for him. You can't make this shit up. My entire life for about 20 years has been a cry for help, but they see what only affects them directly.

Sorry man. I get the feeling. I feel low at most points and haven’t had things nearly as traumatic as you described happen.

Wish I could offer any real advice or help. But the best I can say is that for me, life really comes in waves. After hanging in there, some opportunities always come up. For new friends, rekindled relationships with old friends and possibly family I never had a relationship with before, and career.

Hope those same kind of things happen for you and you can enjoy life again
