Anymore I just feel trapped by life. I've made several suicide attempts. All failures. I no longer have the will to try and take my own life. Every method has such strong drawbacks that I just can't approach any of them. I am failing more and more as each day goes by. I no longer know what to do.
Well, you can always PM if you think that will help.
And that goes for anybody that wants to talk about depression or needs a sympathetic ear.

Well, thanks a whole bunch for that song in my head.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

When I look at the state of the world I tend to think that anyone who isn't depressed is simply not paying attention.

I've always liked Jor. I remember years back back when she was Apophenia, I've always enjoyed her posts and liked her a lot.
You're always welcome to PM me too Jor, of course, about absolutely anything.
