I Am Not Who They Think I Am

I'm not posting this for comments. I just wanted to get it off my chest. I chose this group because I'm not comfortable discussing this with people I know. Therefore, they see something entirely different. I'm not going to say that they only see what I want them to see. They see what they want to see. Sometimes I don't feel like the same person. It's hard to explain without raising some eyebrows. I have a history of psychological problems, but I know there is much more below the surface that hasn't been identified yet. There have been times when I thought I had successfully identified the triggers to these changes. However, they seem to change just as often as everything else. My perception of this issue also changes. I embrace it at times, whereas other times I have considered suicide. I guess it's a stretch to say that I've embraced it at any point when I eventually end up right back at suicidal thoughts. I'm fine tonight, which is great. That's probably why I'm writing this. I know that most of this probably doesn't make much sense. I'm just putting my thoughts into words, which I don't do nearly as often as I'd like. I also haven't provided details on what exactly my issue is. Well, that's difficult to do, even with people I trust. My wife knows more than anyone else about this, yet she only knows a small portion. She still loves me. I won't ask for more than that. If you read all this, thanks for reading!

it makes a LOT of sense. i wish you luck. it's a very brave thing to even admit to having issues like this, so many people pretend nothing is wrong with them and that everyone else is fucked up if they point anything out. you put it into words just fine. and i get it entirely. Cheers
