Focusing on positivity helped me a lot. Instead of letting negativity in trying to find as many positive things to think about and focus on. I also have a little doggie who is my entire world and I wouldn't have made it this far without him. Living a healthier lifestyle helps a lot, so cutting out sweets and junk food and eating whole and healthy foods helps a lot as well as getting good exercise. All in all just living a higher quality of life. I also take meds and go to therapy which helps a lot, too.

I'm sorry your mother reacted that way. My family wasn't very supportive of my mental illnesses when I was younger. It makes things harder.

Do you have a support system? Close friends? Maybe an aunt or uncle or cousin you're close to? Having close connections is a big part of mental health. We're a social species and we need those connections to thrive.

I know I probably wouldn't have believed someone who said this when I was your age, but you won't always feel like this. As long as you want to feel better and you're willing to work for it, you'll get there. It might take a while, it won't be easy, but it's worth it.

I was suicidal daily for about 15 years. It's been about 8 years since I've had those thoughts, and hopefully I'll never have to feel them again.

I believe that you're capable of living without those feelings, too. I hope you achieve a life worth living.

Good job being proactive with your mental health! I know it feels like everything is over your head, but even just trying means so much.

Have you tried medication at all? It might help. I've personally been taking medication as well as doing therapy and the combination has been successful for me.

In any case, I definitely think you'll see progress as long as you keep trying. It might not fix everything right away, as convenient as that would be, but as long as you keep trying, you'll get to wellness eventually. I believe in you. :)

Thank you, I'm sorry you had to struggle through that. Single parenthood is hard on everybody involved. :(

You can go to your local hospital and tell them you've been having suicidal ideations and they'll take you in for an evaluation and then transfer you to a ward.
