Thinking of Hurting Yourself? Call 988

I’ve gotten too this point a couple of times.. I’m going to give dr kalby a try in Miami and if that fails then I have no choice but to get the implant.
Sometimes I just wonder why me though.. why…

Great post! You should DEFINITELY call the suicide hotline if you’re depressed!! A complete stranger, who is completely jaded and overworked, will literally read from a script and not address or empathize with your particular, individual struggle. Oh, and more often than not, the police will be sent to your location where you’ll probably be forcefully restrained then involuntarily commuted to a shitty mental health facility!

Jesus Christ man. I sure wish I could live in fuckin LaLaLand sometimes. You have to be a child or an idiot to think calling 988 will do anyone any good.

I don't know about calling 988. I would never discourage anyone from making the call.
It is sort of like a pull the trigger situation. I doubt it has ever done harm. May have caused further thinking. For those that think it did not help them, that they did not need to call. If you are still here after call great. There are some that that call might be just the punch they need and are still here. I think the worst the call could do is be a step toward another call to someone closer to see in person. I am nothing special. I am just plain lucky. I have never thought of hurting myself. I have been so depressed I wish I would just disappear and be gone.
I am not always happy. I am glad I am alive.
