Omg this is so difficult. There has been three times I have tried, but first thing that comes to my mind is my little brother... And if I was to leave this world with everything he goes through now like I did growing up it hurt him even more....

Twice. In 50 years.
Last one was 3years ago.
Luckily i survived..
My adult kids....soon to be ex at first was supportive. ..but...soon i was put aside...
Friends i had for 20plus years stopped. Talking to me....their adivise was honestly terrible...my spouse spent more time away....dates stopped...little day to day relationship flirts...and such stopped..he avoided me.
I started to talk to these people ,family and because i learned so well how to hide my illness prior. ..they thought i was insane. .and stated that to me
"Its all in your mind"
"You have no reason to be depressed"
Ect.
But I kept saying my true diagnosis.what my illness means..how i need support ..i recovered in about close to a year..
I did change. Due to my break down.
I continue to be honest about my illness..I have lost alot because of my choice to hide my illness but i have gained myself back...my confidence...self respect...most days...
I have choose to continue anyways to be me....at a price. .

I was watching my siblings for my parent's, all day every day, when I was 16, the summer after I was a sophomore, I had loads of clothes to do, just sat down in the basement and cried and cried, I lost my friends because i couldn't go out and do anything with them, I was so depressed. The summer after, my doctor told Mom that I needed to go into a mental health ward, I was so depressed i tried to cut my wrist, was shamed by everyone after i came out, my siblings had told everyone, they all thought i was "crazy", wth.

Then, my daughter was 14, I was having our landlord coming into my work to talk about late rent payment, or none, my husband was, again, mismanaging money, he threatened me, to take my daughter away from me, he had verbally abused me so badly that i believed him, our poor daughter, she had to quit the flute because we couldn't pay the payments for it, she was so upset, I can remember that like it was yesterday, I wish she'd just tell me off one day and I'd take every bit, my workplace also harming my psyche, I took all of the pills in our medicine cabinet and told my husband, he and our daughter took me to the hospital, where I was in patient for a couple of weeks i think. Not long after I got out, my husband wanted me to sign for a washer'dryer set for us, I knew it was never going to get any better, (in the middle of all of our life together I had left him with our daughter, but i wanted so much to believe that, when he said he would change, that it would actually happen) I called my Mom and told her that i had to leave him, my daughter did not go with me, but I HAD to go, it was so depressing, I wanted to keep my daughter, but I thought she wanted to stay with him, so i let her, I found out later, much to my daughter's surprise, she wanted me to fight for her. What a shithead I was back then, why did I let her "get her way"?? What was my mindset back then?? I was seeing a counselor back then, am now, too. No friend for me, no way, Mary has to be a loner all of her days...
