Yeah, we have all felt like that at one time or another. Most people here know that I have been going through some rough times personally myself but you just gotta keep your head up. Is it someone we know LC?
Yes, Hexx it is a member here. We haven't really directly spoken too much in the past in but a few threads but because I am a writer he sent some powerful words my way and asked for help.
I will call him when I get home from work (working late here) but I am not a professional and don't want the entire weight of this on my shoulders right now preferring that all the resources in the community be available. I just take these things very seriously...no matter what...I had a woman friend at 16 put a gun in her mouth and she died at 16. It is just too serious for me alone to give support.
As for personal words, I can only say that I have been through a lot in my life and no matter how bleak things may seem, there is always a way past it. Life holds many challenges as well as many rewards and opportunities for wonderful experiences, but only if you stay with us here.
that's the most horrible feeling in the world and unfortunately I know exactly how they feel. Having people to talk to definitely helped me to get through it and I hope this person has friends they can talk to. If this is someone on 6mt and they feel like they need to talk to someone, I would be glad to talk to them if they wanted.
to whoever it is, I hope you can pull through whatever is making you feel this way. Remember there are always people out there that care for you even if you don't feel there are.
Trust me, I know this exact feeling myself. It is horrible. But things get better. Pain heals and talking to people definitely helps. Being that it is one of our members, I know that everyone here will be willing to help in any way possible. Let me know if I can help LC.
Just know that even if it feels as if you are alone you really aren't. There are people you don't know that care very much about you. Time heals all and know that people care! Please know if you need to talk there are many people here that are very caring and compassionate. Keep your head up.
I can only hope that he calls tonight...I was alerted at work to a pm and thought it was enG35ineer telling me Columbus, Cincy, Lexington and the time so I could make a decision given that he knows we might terrorize each other upon meeting since he is so conservative. Suddenly I am reading someone's message of "help me". I almost got sick with worry for this poor soul. I can only hope he calls...
While you may mean well and want to help, the best is to leave this to a professional. The fact that they reached out to you means;
1. They want help and are asking to get it. This means that they will more than likely seek professional help with your urging.
2. Don't really mean what they are saying and are using you. Please be aware that what they are saying may not necessarily be what they are actually thinking. Beware that not all people are what they seem.
In either case, you again should point them in the direction of professional assistance as they are in the best position to help the person depending on if it's case #1 or #2.
My advice to you LC.

If I feel uhappy, I usually go work on something(Car, truck, bike, house, yard, etc) and I feel better.
Sitting around the house and basking in lazyness is a surefire way to get emotionally down.

Thanks, G. I can offer this person what a professional can't offer and that is love. I have it to give. If they are truly in need of a professional they will go there as well. This is a long term member of this board and has not been in the habit of using me so I'll go with my instinct and give.
I have seen those that have thought about suicide in my old line of work. Many times what gets a person down is something that will pass. The real victims are those left behind, the ones left behind can suffer forever. Whatever the problem is, it can probably be fixed now.
Well, I haven't heard anything yet...I was waiting until after 10:00...but I must call my sister now as she is dying according to a call from my mother this morning. The found more lumps in her breasts and removed and she has more cancer and has started chemo today. And her with four children...
My nephew is only a junior and already being scouted by the Marlins in early high school. She has too much to live for...
